>>214778179They speak goofy British though.>>214778149Who.
>>214777647Reinventing my Spanish is the most awkward thing in existence almost feels harder than learning something totally new.I knew and only spoke Spanish when I was like 8yrs and younger but totally forgot it. I was so ashamed my spanish was mid compared to other people I black marked it from my vocabulary and language for yearss. I wanted to learn French but I feel like I owe it to my ancestors to learn Spanish first as I already have full coherent understanding of it. I'm lowkey rewiring my brain and enjoying itThinking of picking up another accent other than my island although women adore it. Ordered many books written in Spanish and have a journal solely dedicated for Spanish.
>>214778213Singlish is the lingua franca of the business world
>>214778235>Singlish ist eine in Singapur gesprochene Variante der englischen Sprache, die in der Regel als englisch-basierte Kreolsprache betrachtet wird. Singlish ist ein Kofferwort, zusammengesetzt aus SINGaporian EngLISH.Another chinkspeak sorry no. If a chink wants to speak to me xhe should speak a human language. I mean at least Japanese has anime.

I am the anon who wanted to learn a language fast for work, do you guys think doing 4 assimil courses simultaneously,2 with ease and 2 perfection, will bring me up to c1? My friend got a b2 in German just by studying one of those books and doing practice exams before his certification exam.
>>214778077Chinese grammar is easy but you can't just directly translate English into Chinese and leave the structure entirely the sameAlso 得 for complements not 的
>>214774618Danke, aber ich habe kein Bock heute Anime anzusehen, oder irgendetwas zu tun.
>>214778109Canadian English please
>orthography that uses "sh" to represent both /ʃ/ and /sh/
>>214777647Im learning russian and slovakian
how do I choose a language to pick? I wanted to study hebrew (not a kike) latin, greek, italian, french, german, russian, danish. Now I have told my time on earth will be shortened (I will not make it past 33) what do I do to make myself pick. I am not able to pick and the precious time slips from my hands and I suffer
>>214785680What will happen when you turn 33?
>>214785710I had a revelation and I will not make it past 33. You may scoff but I know it is true. It is my curse for all my sins against others and the World
>>214785774You are not jesus.
>>214785774I believe you, don't waste your limited time on something so useless as languages then.
>>214785817correct I am but a desolate man.... now back to topic how do I pick a language with my few years left?
>>214785680learn sanskrit and you've already learned 95% of every other language.
>>214785845>indian
>>214779816Now train your listening.>>214782706Na ja, es gibt viele verschiedene Optionen (pic related). Aber wenn es dir wirklich keinen Spaß macht, dann mach lieber eine Pause. Es ist immerhin nur eine Hobby und kann nicht alle deine Probleme lösen. Es kann dich nur ein bisschen von der Realität ablenken.>>214785680Pick something where you don't mind doing the work. Don't worry about what you're going to use it for, the better you get, the more opportunities will naturally open up.
>>214786204Genau. Ich glaube dass eine Pause genau was ich brauche ist. Normalweise genieße es ich Anime auf Deutsch anzusehen und Videospiele auf Deutsch zu spielen, aber gestern und heute habe ich halt kein Bock.
>>214785945it is the language of languages.
>>214785680What's your financial and professional situation like? Think about a country with your target language you could move to, or travel to frequently, for example, every summer or vacation, or in which TL you'd consume a lot of contentAlso this >>214786204 and this >>214785836
>>214785680Just pick the one that sounds the coolest
>>214786204Thanks Serbanon :)
How do you guys do to even understand German Grammar ? Supposed to memorize words first : yesBut then… you also need to be able to read, write, speak. How do you do this all by urself ?
>>214789314I don't concern myself with the grammar. I don't even think about grammar anymore because my main goal is comprehension, and usually vocabulary is the deciding factor of whether or not I will understand a sentence.If my comprehension someday becomes so good that I can just effortlessly consume content, then I'll just keep doing that for a few years and hopefully the grammar will just become intuitive. If not, then maybe I'll pay someone to correct my mistakes but that's a problem for future me to deal with.
>mainChinese>Secondary Indonesian>Dabble tier Spanish.Constantly changing my dabble tier language. I honestly find it hard to get super pumped about Spanish even tho it seems pretty useful. Other languages that draw me in more are just way harder and more of a time sink. Like I'd like to learn Russian but it's intimidating and I feel I wouldn't succeed with it as a dabbler. </blogpost>
>>214785774and you didnt have a revelation about what language to pick ? useless revelationslearn latin then
>>214789690Okay, so you learned by yourself I assume. Because when you learn a language, you kind of need to know its structure and everything else and I’m so lost and confused. I’m just memorizing words for now. I want to be at a b1/b2 level. No textbooks yet because some have good and bad reviens so idk which one to buy etc
If anyone has good German Anki Decls to give me, pls do so. I downloaded Anki on my new ASUS PC. Trying to get a gang of it

Any one dabbled in Old Norse? Seems fun
>>214791249lots of people do on /clg/ you should ask there
How do you improve passive comprehension? I feel like it might be useful to understand more languages than I speak
Languages I want to know. But I will probably be able to learn, apart from English of course, only two, maybeee three 1. English ofc,2. German / Norwegian / Swedish / Dutch,3. Japanese,4. Italian / French,5. Spanish / Portuguese.Alternative list:1. English,2. French / German,3. Japanese,4. Swedish, Norwegian, Dutch / Italian,5. Spanish / Portuguese.
>>214785680>pick latin or greek>learn it to an acceptable degree>start writing your prophetic visions (that were revealed to you in your dreams) down in latin or greek>sell those writings and fashion yourself as a modern age soon-to-be-revered saint>buy massive stockpiles of morphine, fentanyl, cannabis (nitrous oxide if you want to actually meet god) so that you can live out your remaining years in comfort and self-prescribed pain medications.>?>die>profit
>>214781627>Chinese grammar is easy but you can't just directly translate English into Chinese and leave the structure entirely the same>Also 得 for complements not 的Why can't you? It's SVO.
>>214777841>German is in the same branch of Germanic as English and has considerably different syntax, though.The split between north and west Germanic languages is not really a big deal. Old English and Old Norse were still mutually intelligible 1000 years ago even though supposedly Old English and Old German had already diverged by that point.
>>214783783English does this
>>214793011Spanish and German are SVO as well and you can't do it with thosetry taking a sentence of actual Chinese and translating it directly into English and see what the result is

Good morning (night) Anons, i wanted to steal the Brazilianon's idea >>214657741 to have native English speakers give me their opinion on my accent. Please don't make fun of my voice i know i sound like I'm still 11/ a female. People call me "ma'am" on phone calls often enough I'll ask that you please not rub in the fact that i had low T while growing up. Also very sorry about the background noise. Do lower your headphone volume xoxohttps://voca.ro/1nEA63RYybnv
>>214794804You sound very good. If I met you (assuming you're not gigabrown) I would probably assume you were an American. Would Rape/10.
Also could a native speaker please tell me how the latin word I couldn't pronounce (Fabaceae) is supposed to be pronounced? Preferably in Burger English but i wouldn't mind English English
>>214794877Ahmad this is haram. You can not say such a thing to another man, especially if he's not a twink. Preform tawbah akhi i will pray for you. The evil Westerners have rotted your mind and deen. You should come back to us before it's too late. https://youtu.be/LxjlvRUixgE
>>214794804>>214794894>opinion on my accentsounds native>i sound like I'm still 11/ a femalewhat>Fabaceaenot a botanist but if I had to guess,f@ "beI si:fuh bay see
>>214795200I would rape you after him
>>214794804It's difficult to hear what you're saying. Besides the noise, it sounds very echoey and like you're speaking from far away.As far as I can tell, your pronunciation of most words and sounds is pretty good. There's an exotic flavor to your voice, but it's hard to pin down exact causes. I'll give a few examples where your vowels sounded like they might deviate from a standard American pronunciation (although I might just have a hard time hearing due to the bad audio quality)."unfortunately" (~0:05) - This almost sounds like a Scottish or Irish pronunciation, "unfartunately.""never" (~0:08) - This sounded strange to my ears. Maybe like you're saying "navver.""plants" (~0:20) - This sounded like you might have said something like "plahnts," although your "a" sound in the word "Latin" sounded normal.My overall appraisal is that whatever accent you have is very subtle. If you could post a better quality recording, I could feel more certain about that judgment.Part of the "low T" aspect to your voice comes down to intonation. Read about the "uptalk" phenomenon, if you're not already familiar with it. You're staying in an elevated tone (pitch), which makes you come across as unconfident. Or like you're afraid that you need to keep your voiced raised to keep our attention, and that if you drop your voice you'll lose our attention. This mode of speech sounds effeminate.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_rising_terminalAlso, don't say "anywho." You probably know this, but it's not a real word. It's a cutesy mutation of "anyhow." Using it sounds effeminate.>>214795211>>214794894I would say "fuh-BAY-see-ay" or possibly "fuh-BAY-see-ee." I think pronouncing "ae" "ee" would be more traditional and proper.Also keep in mind that in certain places, "ae" can become a weak vowel. For example, Aegean.https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/aegeanContrast with "aegis" (EE-jiss).https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/aegis
>>214796512Yeah it's echoey because there's nothing in the room other than a table and a chair and no furniture in the living room connected to it (long story). But damn this is a very in-depth analysis, thank you Americanon. I never knew about HRT and i think i got it from my dialect of Arabic where it's basically ubiquitous so I've never noticed it and i seem to have carried it over to English.>Also, don't say "anywho." You probably know this, but it's not a real word. It's a cutesy mutation of "anyhow." Using it sounds effeminate.Probably comes from how many female political/cultural commentators i used to watch (mostly Shoeonhead and Misha Petrov) to learn what females thought on that kind of stuff or why they're always in the front lines fighting tooth and nail to destroy the West.>If you could post a better quality recording, I could feel more certain about that judgment.Sorry i only have my phone's microphone and there's no fixing my room's echoing or the constant background noise. It's the best i can do desu
>>214797806You can keep saying anywho, it just makes you sound Canadian
I have to choose four languages and stick to them in my dabbling routine. Each from a different group (English, Germanic language, Romance language, Asian language).1. English2.>German>Swedish-Norwegian3.>Japanese>Chinese(but rather Japanese)4.>Spanish>French>Italian>Portuguese
>>214799252dont learn japanese. this language is as useful as learning to tongue baboon anus. theres no literature in it and this is the chinese century anywaysi made a mistake learning this shit for 3 years
>>214799623Is German more useful ?
>>214799252Learn danish, korean and romanian.
>>214799623Neck yourself, Zhao
>>214799623I've heard something different, that they have their equivalents of almost everything when it comes to literature, music, and film. Overall content to consume>>214800793Danish is too difficult and have no pitch accent. Korean is cool too, gonna think about it. Romanian is cool, but not for my main dabbling focus. In future
>>214785845no, learn Common Lisp for that purpose>>214799623>no literaturewhat's that supposed to mean? There is plenty, of literature, much is world renowned, especially psychological novels and short stories.
dont learn japanesedont learn chineselearn nothing just sit in your smeggy bedroom and shitpost on /lang/
Damn I had a dream I met some French people and I could just barely understand what they were saying to me but I couldn't say anything backFeels bad, maybe I do want to know how to speak French>>214791249I've studied Old Norse on and off for more than a yearWhat do you want to know?
>>214777647How understandable is Pennsylvanian Deutch to an actual German? How about vice versa? If I were to master German, would Jedediah understand me, or is the German they speak as different as Portuguese proper is to Brazil?
>>214787437I just read books. I am a bit autistic so I don't like travelling; I do love reading.>>214788391the whole package sounds cool but i am limited in time>>214789834It is about free will. I have to choose how to fill my own time>>214792876I like your train of thought! However would Sanskrit not be even more pure than Latin/Greek?
>>214805518Choose from: Ancient Greek, French, German, maybe Italian
>>214778077How did you get to your current level? All self taught?
ئۈستگە بارىمىز
>>214805518>However would Sanskrit not be even more pure than Latin/Greek?you can learn sanskrit if you want; but most people that speak a euro language can identify a latin or greek word from a second glance, even if they don't speak a lick of the language. you're not going to be getting any sales for your commercialized prophetic scriptures with those funny squiggles that nobody outside of people that actually know the language can decipher.also, pure? you're from the netherlands, a christian land.
How many hours of Spanish input do I need to understand the guy with the face tattoo?https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4JzCa8wei9s
How and why did german become a dialect continuum when the people live pretty close to each other? Stories of people from one village can't understand someone from another village sound pretty farfetched
