does polish Y sound the same as czech Y?
if it does then there is no real difference between spoken I and Y.
Ayden Ross
i is soft similar to ee in meet
y is hard similar to i in dig,
Tyler Sanders
all sound same
Chase Fisher
What's the soft consonants? It's not palatalized sounds?
Oliver Cooper
no, í is ee
i is dick
y is dig
Jonathan Diaz
like y in lyrics
Julian Long
they don't in polish, there is a big difference between być (to be) and bić (to beat, hit)

Why don't the West and South Slavs differ animacy for female nouns? Are you fucken sexist?
Aaron Flores
What does that mean? We have genders and two declinations for both male and female plus one for neutral.
Kayden Walker
>anbd south slavs
we do
Robert Scott
It determines what form a noun takes in accusative plural (acc. sing for II declension male words too). If it's animate then it uses the genitive form, otherwise it uses the nominative form.
No, you don't. You don't even decline nouns.
Gavin Taylor
That sounds weird 2bh
Carter Williams
>a Slavic language with no soft consonants at all
Are you serious? How did it happen to you?
Connor Foster
Soft consonants are gay 2bh.
Connor Green
How do you measure the gayness of sounds?
Isaiah Thompson
If they produce a lisping sound they're pretty gay.
>ć
>nj
>lj
>anything followed by the cyrillic soft sign
Adam Adams
That's not an explanation. I don't see any correlation between consonant palatalization and gayness, and I don't think you do as well since normally you can't even hear the difference between them and their hard pairs.
Robert Jackson
They do in Czech, not in Polish
Charles Johnson
They just don't sound right. They are some sort of half-way sounds.
Jaxon Perry
There is a difference between animate and inanimate female nouns in the accusative plural, come to think of it. We don't have a rule for it though, it's just a matter of noun classes. But the genitive corresponding with the accusative is just crazy talk.
Carson Torres
So, just like those weird i and u sounds that you and Germans call e and o for some reason?
That's interesting. The South Slavic declension looks pretty alien compared to the West Slavic one tbqh
Jacob Scott
>So, just like those weird i and u sounds that you and Germans call e and o for some reason?
No idea what you're talking about. We have wide and narrow o and e and the schwa sound.
Zachary Hill
>wide and narrow o and e
That's what I'm talking about. They sound like weirdly pronounced i and u to me.
