why the FUCK do you need THIS MANY inflections!!!???? Why? WHY!?
Why does any single language NEED THIS MUCH SHIT!? Just be fucking analytic you don't need hundreds of forms of the SAME FUCKING WORD
>>18471974>>18471982you can think of the morphemes as individual words themselves. its really not that hard.
>>18472009So you're saying that there's hundreds of different words FOR THE SAME FUCKING THING!? Yeah ok we don't need to do that in analytic languages. So basically infinite amount of work in inflected languages compared analytic. Great argument. Fuck inflected languages. You DONT NEED INFLECTIONS
>>18471982Because real languages evolved over centuries of people warping every word in dozens of different ways to better suit whatever they were trying to convey Are languages like that an absolute shitshow to learn from scratch? Yes.Is it useful for native speakers? Actually also yes. Helps a lot in precision of speech and avoiding needless repetitions
>>18471974>why come words be hardthere was a time, a time not long ago, when it was considered a pointless waste of time to teach the dark skinned people to read, or to even speak beyond a limited vocabulary, and there was some good reason for that which you have stumbled upon
>>18472022Words don't have to be hard you can have an ANALYTIC LANGUAGE
>>18471974>>18471982Its not called the bill of needs.
>>18472022>when it was considered a pointless waste of time to teach the dark skinned people to read, or to even speak beyond a limited vocabularyLiteracy prior to public education and state literacy programs was always pretty low globally.
>>18471974How can we make this kino language Lingua Franca again?Fuck Engl*sh.
Nah. Inflections are good. The real problem is when you have a whole lot of declensions/conjugations and have to re-learn the system for each one.Analytic languages just move the complexity into other things, mostly word order. And look at this garbage:"the bla of the thing" 5 words."The thing's bla" 3 words.English at least has the inflections left to do that, Italians and Baguettes are stuck with the 5 word construction.I think the theoretical best system is like German's: just pile all that inflection onto "the" and "a". Learn die/der/das once and you can keep running with it. I wish it made more differences, even, e.g. you can only tell accusative form nominative in the masculine singular. And also have some basic case endings, e.g. the English "'s" is extremely efficient, and if you combined it intelligently with die/der/das then you can get even more specific with even less.
>>18471974lol you got filtered by Greek? Try Finnish.
just wait until you get to Englishanyways studying grammar rigorously is a complete waste of time if you're not a career linguistonce you reach a certain threshold of native familiarity it literally just doesn't matterofc, you'd have to be immersed in it from infancy and be adequately cogitent for that
>>18471974That's not Hungarian
