Hungarian ia the superior language, everything is pronounced how it’s written, no genders, date format is close to iso 8601 wxcept with dots instead of -, you literally just add stuff to the word to change its meaning.
The first two are also applicable to English. I still don’t understand half of English poetry because my native-french-speaking ass doesn’t even have an intuitive concept of syllabic stress, and English pronunciation is so beyond fucked it’s not funny. “It’s pronounced read and not read” “-ough like tough not dough” how about STFU.
I swear every single time someone mentions language or doesn’t explicitly say where they’re from someone will fight you saying that you only know one language and one culture and you can’t possibly know anything else lol
well there are some stereotypes about americans, and there are also lots of people in the world that don’t know any languages other than their native ones, so I guess I can see where it’s coming from.
The problem is that speaking different languages is not even remotely the same thing as knowing anything about linguistics. People have no idea of how little they actually know about the use of language.
I’m honestly not sure about how people would go about learning a language without getting so involved that you inevitably catch all of that, I’ve never thought about it.
Вообще, считается, что чем в языке меньше падежей, тем он проще, но ок, допустим, всё это фигня. Даже в таком случае я соглашусь с тобой лишь на половину, потому что письменную часть даже не все носители способны осилить. Плюс ударения (торты или торты?)). Если ты с детства говоришь на русском, то конечно он для тебя проще, чем английский, особенно с учётом того, как последний подаётся у нас в школах и кем. Я лично его учил, смотря видео на ютубе. Сначала с сабами, потом начал понимать и без них. В общем, мой тейк состоит в том, что английский интуитивен, в то время, как в русском уже -тся -ться у многих вызывает проблемы.

loll, man, I was talking about english when I said that I’ve learned it from youtube. If it were as you said, that would’ve been kida disproving of my point.
I misread, probably read what I wanted to read lol.
Yea, upon reading the comment again, I see what you meant to say. Russian and Ukrainian are my mother tongues, but I only learnt to properly read and write in university, so I missed that.
That’s so funny 😂😂
I can totally understand. Everything about English is difficult.

Bro that’s all you had to say
Also:
In general, Uralic languages are always superior to Germanics, and only lose against Nordics because of the cool factor.
Multiple pronunciations means you can choose any of those options and be correct.

Big-endian is biiig
if you’re willing to go back several hundred years then everything in english was also written how it was pronounced. might not be worth it though
lol
from all the languages I know, english is the easiest one
So from all of your experience of knowing one language?
nice joke, but no, i know 4.The toughest for me personally is czech.

Надо было добавить, что мне он проще.
По фактам, но начинал с игр. И линупса.
Major kudos to you for learning Russian solely from YouTube videos
