english order: haluaisin sovittaa pukua jonka olen nähnyt hotelliamme vastapäätä olevassa kaupassa
turkish order: hotelliamme vastapäätä olevassa kaupassa on puku jota haluaisin sovittaa

Can't every language do this?
>>
>>222756611
you can change the order in turkish as well but it won't work out if you put everything exactly parallel to english order
it seems to be the same in your language as well
>>
>>222756611
what a disgusting language, you should just speak russian and drop the retardspeak

What a beautiful language. You should speak Finnish and drop Swedish from the curriculum.

The word order doesn't matter in Latin and that's fine to read, it's not as bad as it sounds.

Don't make me come down and give you some schwedentrunk.

It's just the opposite of the English order though

Sometimes it feels like English is the only language that makes sense.
>>
>>222757178
Yeah, I accidentally changed it a lot to make it feel more natural. Didn't even realize when I wrote it, oops.

But it's curious how languages can control the flow of your thoughts.
It's a bit clunky to fabricate an english sentence that starts from the hotel.
Our hotel is across the street from a shop in which I've seen a suit that I'd like to try on?

Really makes you think how millions of caucasoids speak a language as alien as japanese today

"Cucumber" follow the regular rules of English orthography THOUGH. It's not like "debt" or "island."

I loathe Turks because they are living on easy mode when learning Japanese.

Not really, the grammar is the easiest part even for Anglos anyways

Korean is also quite flexible when it comes to word order thanks to its system of particles

super cool
that's almost the same as turkish other than some different vocabulary

>Not really, the grammar is the easiest part even for Anglos anyways
Completely delusional. Learning vocab is a grind but people actually can't read Japanese even with a popup dictionary correctly.

Polish is a phonetic language with a predictable pronunciation, save for some loanwords like the weekend. It also has less overall sounds to learn. I still can't perfect English pronunciation because of some hundred unwritten rules and exceptions.
>>
>>222756611
English:
>Es vēlētos uzmērīt uzvalku ko redzēju veikalā pāri ielai nu jūsu hoteļa
Turkish
>No jūsu hoteļa pāri ielai veikalā es redzēju uzvalku ko uzmērīt es vēlētos
The Turkish one feels cumbersome, it flow better as
>No jūsu hoteļa pāri ielai esošajā veikalā es redzēju uzvalku ko vēlētos uzmērīt

The English feels the most natural to me, but I don't know how to speak like a normal person so I am not the one to consult about this.

>Cyocamber, not Ku-kum-ber

>>222763231
"Wzwzwzwzzzwwwswzesezcchchczeezzzcjchchczzwszzwwzzchchcłzwzwzhh" - translates to "Hello there"
>>
>>222764763
It's cyew-cum-ber
>>
>>222765024
I can hear it with and without w.
probably one of the reason English has so many accents and dialects.
British say it like
>kyew-kam-bah
o algo
>>
>>222756069
>inverse
>complicated
>>
>>222765113
Well they're pronouncing it wrong
Modern British English is a bastardization
Americans unironically pronounce things way better
>>
>>222757336
sounds more sensible when you read it like it was slovenian
>>
>>222765246
No, I agree.
Americans pronounce words closer to how they are written, making them in my eyes the true custodians of the language.
British accents just don't feel "pure" enough to be a baseline

i don't speak japanese also not the anon you replied to but i think so
it's just a 3 letter root word + bunch of suffixes
there is also a specific suffix in turkish that you use for things you heard about other people
it has other uses as well but that is the most common thing it's used for
>>
>>222767274
>things you heard about other people
*things you heard *from* other people
>>
>>222767274
>i don't speak japanese also not the anon you replied to but i think so
Yeah it's like 会え (be able to meet) そう (looks like is about to) にない (not) そう (different from previous one here - marking it's hearsay) だ (here just marking the sentence as positive and a bit more exclamatory vs skipping it).

holy shit
>>
>>222760128
japanese grammar is extremely easy once you understand particles are just case markers
>>
>>222771714
Ok then explain which case は and も mark.
>>
>>222771821
japanese is a pro drop language, a sentence is は is a sentence where the nominative is usually dropped. は marks the topic
