French has an autistic spelling but turns out they are very consistent with it and pronunciation ends up quite coherent desu
French is kinda coherent when you get the hang of it. English on the other hand...
Because the french are disgusting useless subhumans.
English. If this wasn't my native language, I would kill myself instead of trying to learn it and its faggot phonology
This
this has always triggered me
such fart-sniffing autism
It's English.
As those Sup Forumsellectuals said, French has strange patterns, but they're very systematic, so once you know them you're set.
Meanwhile, in English, only 50% of the words have a pronunciation that can be deducted from the way they're written.
Let's have a game: try to pronunce all those words correctly.
though
tough
cough
hiccough
plough
through
lough
borough
hough
hint: none of them rime with each other, despite the fact they all end with "ough"
I'd rate it as full on fart-huffing autism, not just fart sniffing autism
Frankly as ESL people tolerate a lot of mispronunciation. It's really not that bad.
Though, plough and borough don't rhyme?
Though and borough rhyme, plough doesn't.
>Though and borough rhyme
it's english
Though is throw without the R.
Borough is more like burrow and slightly rhymes with though.
Plough is like plow as in plowing a field. I would vocaroo it, but my mic's out on my laptop.
How do you pronounce them?
I gave up on English. I'm not going to learn anything from people that use miles, feet, and stones and drive on the wrong side of the road. The Britbongs are out of the EU anyway so German it is.
>he said in English.
My english is kanker
>german
what did you say ?
daily reminder your country is a FRENCH colony and your language a FRENCH dialect
le francais est trop difficile pour mij.
Am I allowed to roll my Rs when speaking french? I cant do the guttural R.
i really dont understand what could be so hard about it
>I cant do the guttural R.
you cant do any r sound tho
no one does it anymore but i guess it's better than the english one unless you wanna sound very stupid
Is this a joke?
dude, do you want the truth? it's easier to understand their speech, rather than yours.
no, r sound in english is non existant, its like you guys are fighting with your tongue and mouth to pronounce the r sound but cant.
So the R is silent? heureux would be hooohoo?
I'm native in Russian and I don't roll R. I can, but I will have an accent with it
>All english people sound the same
I speak arabic, I can roll me Rs
no you'd sound stupid
just keep practicing man
great for you mohammed, now you can communicate with doves
I have a hard time believing that, if only because English is so much more common that everyone is exposed to it.
i didn't say that ?
though it kinda is
it's like a very soft german r
but as time went by now you can just "squeeze" your throat
most of the time no sounds come out of our r anymore but just some air
don't know how to explain it
>french
>is a cunt
>bong
>is full brown
Nah I get it bro, thanks.
Even common words can sound incommon. Also the same (a bit) with Polish, I heard words, but I didn't understand it
example: in one polish song
noc labiryntem jest (the night is a labirint)
I heard it as "no z nami rytm jest) (but there is rhythm with us)
I've never seen a language as messed up as english
Learning German from Dutch is like learning Italian from French so it's way easier for him.
uh yes, makes sense
of course, english is literally mutt, the language.
That's half France's fault, you know.
french kings didnt forced population to mimick french language
what's wrong with being a cunt?
Beatiful language you have there though.
Would you mind if learned it?
C'est la langue du futur.
succombe à la langue française maintenant !

I am leaking from my Loire, Rhône, Rhin, Seine and Garonne right now.
English hasn't had pronounciation rules for fucking centuries so it doesn't count.
It let it be so wide spread though otherwise Americans and Scots and us would be almost unitllellible online
>thread about france
>ouai mais what about ze engleeeesh
every time
breh
I couldn't do it at first either. I had to practice making a disgusted "ugh" noise over and over until I could control the throat squeezing sensation and eventually could pronounce the guttural R
>Learning German from Dutch is like learning Italian from French
Vocabularywise, yes. Grammarwise going from Dutch to German is "prepare your anus" mode.
>thread about france
Not really though.
nigga...

stop
what?
>tfw they think they will be spared and we will not annex them
We're terrible with our t's and d's, half the time we don't even bother pronouncing them in a lazy, casual setting.
What's up with the rest of the Anglophone world and their quirks?
issou
Japanese.
see and ? they don't even agree between fellow Murrikans

tough rhymes with cuff
cough rhymes with off
hiccough rhymes withup
plough rhymes with cow
through rhymes with blue
lough rhymes with loch
borough rhymes with thorough
hough rhymes with hock
