>muh Icelandic
Jesus fucking Christ people watch too much Vikings. Icelandic or Scandinavian languages ate the most cucked languages there aren't. Have you ever listened to them? They sound like they're singing, just like Finnish.. Completely beta-like. I kniw German sounds ugly but at least it still sounds manly. Imagine Hitler or Goebbels speaking Scandinavian lmfao.. Nobody could have taken them seriously because they don't have that alpha touch in their language.
I fucking hate typing on my smartphone. I need to read my posts before I click send
no you don't have to
>German sounds ugly
why?

Have you ever heard Stalin's speeches? I guess people took him more than seriously.

this is literal scientific truth, so /thread/
Russian has a lot of foreign influence
Belarusian is probably the most Slavic one
That was exactly my train of thought.
Add to that the central position in germania, and we are a decent candidate
But I don't really like the simpler grammar compared to High German, e.g. lack if dative case, same articles for masculine and feminine nouns
>Russian has a lot of foreign influence
Not more than any other Slavic language.
(except for mb artificially purified ones like Czech and Slovene, but their spoken versions are filled with borrowings as well)
>Belarusian is probably the most Slavic one
The Belorussian vocabulary mostly consists of words that also exist in Polish and/or Russian. It can't be more "Slavic" than those two.
Is Dutch easier to learn than German?
yes
we have have two genders in practice (three in theory but who cares) whereas german has three
german has four cases whereas we have none
It also seems to be more similar to English, at least at a first glance.
it is
dutch like the missing link between english and german
(high) german underwent a few sound changes neither dutch nor english underwent.
By the way, how different is Afrikaans from literary Dutch? Can you understand it?
German doesn't sound ugly or harsh, it's all about the pronounciation and tone
1.English
2.Norwegian
1.French
2.Italian
1.Russian?
2.Belarusian
It sounds void of emotion desu.

Bulgarian is a lot more conservative actually. Also Polish in this regard for the two meme letters with the small curve.
That's very true for standard newsspeaker German (very robotic and sterile), but we all (well most of us) still have our dialects
Okay
Dutch is basically german stripped of most grammatical features
Afrikaans is Dutch stripped of ANY grammatical features, no genders, no cases, no conjugations.
With a bit of adjusting, dutch people have quite an easy time understanding Afrikaans, but it doesnt really work the other way around.
I can definitely understand most of the song you linked. In high school we are also allowed to read afrikaans books every once in a while.
As it turns out, most afrikaans dialects are closer to standard dutch than a fair share of dutch dialects, see pic related.
To my knowledge it has no cases though, plus it has definite articles which makes it most deviant from the others
Steirische is quite endearing. Lived in Steiermark for a little while.
It's easy to understand for us. In fact, it wasn't even considered a different language 100 years ago.
It is also the only Slavic language to preserve "az" for first person singular pronoun, for example.
Neat to know.
>it wasn't even considered a different language 100 years ago.
Well, this is the case with many languages. Take Czech and Slovak or Swedish and Norwegian. It's partly a political/identitarian issue.
Horošo, drug, a mne paka nada vyguljat' sabaku
>drug
>a
>mne
>paka
>nada
>vyguljat
all Slavic words
"Horošij" is a Slavic word too btw. It's supposed to be derived from Old Russian "horobryj" (brave). The only clearly borrowed word in that sentence is "sobaka", and we still use Slavic "pios" as well.
why does every german have gay lisp when speaking english?
The only slavic language that still uses nasal vowels from proto-slavic
1. German
2. Icelandic
English and the Scandinavian languages are extremely similar. German has a bunch of weird grammatical features that are not present in any other Germanic languages.
1. French
2. Italian
French uses pronouns. That alone would make it so wildly different from the other Romance languages that it wins. But they have a bunch of other morphological features that are pretty weird. Like ne... pas, etc.
1. No idea.
2. No idea.
>German has a bunch of weird grammatical features that are not present in any other Germanic languages
Go on, I'm interested
>French uses pronouns.
So do we and I think everyone else in the romance family
