Can I assume that the English-as-a-second-language posters on here are probably among the smartest of their peers while Americans, Brits, Canadians, and Aussie/New Zealanders could be a mix of dumb and smart anons?
I figure if you master another language you are probably a smart person, or has years of western media programming made it possible for even a 70 iq slav retard to master English?
Luis Powell
I keep posting broken English without feeling any hesitation.
Parker Turner
idk about other people but in my case it was huge exposure to english + finding it easier than portuguese
Landon Jackson
I've realized this a long time ago.
There's a certain minimum threshold for intelligence to be here from outside the anglosphere. But the barrier to entry is lower for us.
Lucas Walker
I dont know but brazilians are the only non english speaking people who are interesting and funny All others are either oooga booga "muh race" etc I guess most of them are younger than 22 I can understand this shit irl but on internets and on Sup Forums? Holy fuck Also finns are overhyped
Brayden Brown
Mommy says I'm a smart boy :^) Seriously though, internet makes learning english as trivial as it gets. I would say at least 50% of graduates from Moscow universities are fluent enough to read and communicate on a basic level
Jeremiah Walker
Learning english is fucking easy though.
Kayden Phillips
The reason why I started learning English is to watch western porn websites smoothly. Now, my English skill has been grown up to a level that I can post and read on Sup Forums. Porn has a power making men smart.
Parker Powell
what this guy said. Also I believe it's safe to assume some of us were raised bilingual from a very young age so that makes it even easier.
Sebastian Thomas
But you still need to learn something. All I need to do is be retarded on the internet.
Oliver Powell
how do I know you aren't a western english teacher or American marine?
Asher Adams
Well, bative Anglos are dumb and underage in general. Cuz they don't need to be educated enough to learn another language.
Hudson Jenkins
>or has years of western media programming made it possible for even a 70 iq slav retard to master English? haha, u fucking dipshit)) ur board is 70% slav
Luke Flores
American is baffled by the concept of learning things, claims everyone who does that is genius: The thread
Nolan Morris
How about requesting me to write Japanese to confirm if I'm fluent with Japanese at least? English written by Japanese has weird grammar, so you can know whether I'm proxy or not.
Samuel Kelly
>implying there is no non-japanese people who mastered this language and can write in it
Jackson Gonzalez
English has very simple grammar, you don't have to put that much effort into learning to shitpost on a board where nobody cares about your mistakes.
Aiden Evans
>there is no non-japanese people who mastered this language and can write in it But this is 99% correct.
Zachary Baker
How many japanese can claim mastery in japanese language? Last I checked you idiots need subtitles for your own movies. Stop being retarded and invent a better language that doesn't require 25 different writing systems
William Mitchell
So, if you post something in japanese, that only means you are japanese or belong to this 1%. And there is nothing that can prove either possibility wrong.
Lincoln Morris
>25 different writing systems *counts on fingers* Hiragana Katakana Kanji ... ... Uhh...
William Russell
He's not wrong though, take brazilians for example, the really dumb favelados don't speak English and if they even had Internet wouldn't post here. Germans who can't would stick to krautchan, Finns who can't would stick to ylilauta, etc
It may not mean they're smarter but there's just a natural inclination for ESL people here to be less dumb than Anglos
Blake Wright
Furigana Romaji
Owen Morales
Furigana is not a writing system, it's just reading aid in hiragana. Romaji is made by and for foreigners, same with Polivanov system.
Grayson Cruz
>need subtitles for your own movies. Do you mean furigana along with Kanji?
>25 different writing systems We have only three (Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji) though...
Do you imply my English is enough good, which makes you think I'm proxy? If so I'm fucking happy to be honest.
Henry Cooper
how do i get the gold account? how much does it cost?
Nathaniel Morris
Yep, my assumption about your proxy-ness is based solely on your ability to speak English normally.
Dominic Scott
...
Carter Parker
English is just easy to learn, you just put one word next to another, no brain usage, the word is always same, like building a wall
Matthew Jackson
go to cost: your innocence
Connor Butler
>building a wall >no brain usage
Gavin Parker
>tfw learning a language and considering to start learning another >like 5 native posters a month >not that many second language speakers here >don't know of any image boards in that language feels bad
Dominic Wood
What language are you talking about ?
Carter Cooper
>go to Sup Forums >first thread never coming back again
Josiah Evans
Mandarin
Xavier Bell
I think there is a Chinese imageboard though.
Wait a second.
Kevin Moore
how new are you?
Jonathan Bell
i know Sup Forums is a shithole 2 years

Language skills =/= intelligence or even education.
Especially with something as "easy" and widespread as English (which isn't widespread thanks to highly intellectual songs and movies).
Christian Gray
>Can I assume that the English-as-a-second-language posters on here are probably among the smartest of their peers
I often think this, but the posters make me thing otherwise
Joseph Hill
I think Brazilian posters are the smartest posters on average here
They hardly ever post dumb shit and are always at least kind of eloquent
Bentley Cruz
Yeah, that's the one. Couldn't find it.
Matthew Torres
thanks I'll take a look
Joshua Lewis
i was hoping you were actually kidding about the gold pass.. but no
