Polish is a Slavic language written out using Latin letters.
Would be so much shorter with a щ
Kinda weird to isolate Polish when Hungarian, Finnish and Basque are actually all their own distinct language families.
Polish actually isn't in a distinct language family and shares a lot with other western Slavic languages like Czech, and Slavic languages in general.
Maybe it's because it was in the same language group as those others that polish got singled out. People who speak an Indo European language will expect to be lost when first trying to learn a language outside of the group, but might not expect to be so confuddled from a related language. Expectations basically.
Me, a non European who only speaks english, so true
Haha yeah I get it.
*cries at Greek
Ä, ö, ü, am i a joke to you?
Ä, ö, ü, õ, š, ž are just there to allow for phonemic ortography, biatch!
Though then again, I'm fairly sure that the weird Polish letters.
Also if your native tongue DOES have phonemic ortography.... Well guess how difficult it was for 6 year old me in Estonia to start learning English where the words are clearly not written the same way they're spoken????
It gets worse hearing older people here speak English because most of them did NOT start learning the language at age 5 or 6 so uhhhh... Yeah they expect the words to be pronounced the way they're spelled. Makes your ears bleed.
Btw, there's a mising phonetic letter in Swiss German, somewhere between ä and ö, kind of a aeo. But since it's rarely written dialekt (personal chats), we work around this with Umlauts and context.
I don't think you could get the speakers of all the European languages to agree on which one is normal.
It has to be French right?
Inappropriate use of vowels, 10 yard penalty for the defense
Sure you can everyone in france know theirs is the only real language. Don't believe me? Just ask someone from france.
but we can all agree hungarian isn't
You could if we had won. /s
