lmfao yes

I remember when my brother tried to do it

Spanish.

TEACH ME YOUR WAYS YOUNG MORTAL

Tbh for a lot of Spanish, expanding your English vocabulary is really useful. Pretty sure they're both Romantic languages, which means they both take from Latin, so a lot of root words are similar. except fuck accents and all that shit, that's what gets me every single time. And it can be a pretty embarrassing mistake too, I'm like 80% sure años and anos mean two WILDLY different things but I just heard that from someone so it could be completely fuckin wrong

Años means years or age something like that and Anos mean butthole

Yup, I knew años but anos I wasn't sure about, they don't exactly teach that in Spanish class lmao

Accents are a bit annoying and I would rather live without them.

TEACH ME YOUR WAYS YOUNG MORTAL

Sorry, little one. I can't teach Spanish.

this is basically how languages go

spanish: lmao make everything a verb tense yah yah
french: godzilla by eminem in language form
latin: murder is fun guys right? also cursed shit and whatnot
chinese/japanese: wait these symbols have pronunciations?
english: kill me now i can't learn all forms of be

Hmm..

chinese/japanese: wait these symbols have pronunciations?

Okay but you're right
I have to learn a new alphabet, and then, boom, the alphabet comes together to make words that look nothing like the alphabet I learned

hardest part for me is kanji and sentence structure
really, learning hiragana/katana isn't that hard

i much lik learning japanese over chinese
i swear to god the tones are so annoying
if you say 'ma' the wrong way then it has a whole different meaning AGH

Yeah, having to accent things is annoying. If I say "papá", I'm addressing my father, if I say "papa", I'm either calling the person a potato or talking to one.

Facts, you can very easily refer to someone's mother (mā) as a horse (mă)
Plus there really isn't a pronunciation guide, they really are just random symbols with no association to forming sound, so you have to learn pinyin (Chinese in English alphabet) to be able to associate words with the characters.

Yes indeed. But I love languages so I'm always willing to learn.

I KNOW RIGHT
natively, i'm taiwanese where the main language there is mandarin but since i grew up in america, i was forced into chinese school ;;;;;-;;;;;

hahahahhaha i quit as soon as i was allowed to
i no longer remember 90% of what i learned

Fair. Life has no right to be so expensive if I don't even get to have fun.

Honestly, I had trouble learning English as a little kid.
When you live in a household where you only speak Spanish and then enter school without any knowledge of English, of course, it's going to be hard.

hi I'm in a somewhat serious situation right now and I need that picture with the duck that's labelled 'hold birb gentle like hamburger' please tell me someone here has it my life depends on it

that picture of a parrot in a hotdog bun would also be good

This?
