Non-native language

Vanessa

Laura

Nice one! 🤣

Of course,in french,sometimes,it depends of the context.

Honestly,I don't understand why other people think french is difficult! 😛

Laura

Vanessa I don't understand why other people think french is difficult!

Because it has more exceptions than rules 😂

Angelina

Amira

I admit some expressions are very paradoxical in the German language 😂

Vanessa Don't worry,you're totally understandable,and there is no problem to discuss with you in english.

Thank you. I try my best. 🙂

Vanessa Honestly,I don't understand why other people think french is difficult! 😛

i think the same about german until people from other countries remind me what is complicated 🤣

Rick

Laura Because it has more exceptions than rules 😂

Not as bad as English though, I'm sure.

Vanessa

Laura

😉

Rick

I remember well the list of irregular verbs we had to learn...

Tobbe

Right.

Maybe because we like writing,so the more letters,the better! 😛

But @Laura's explanation is more accurate!😉

Laura

Me neither.

I think some words may be hard to pronounce correctly,however,for non-native speakers.

Tobbe

French. But why write letters that are not pronounced? The last letter of a word is often silent!
Paris - [paʁi]

Laura

Tobbe But why write letters that are not pronounced?

Because they are pronounced in phrases(liaison)

Tobbe Paris

But Parisien

Ines

Rick
No, exactly "neuter" in Spanish is exactly same we use "neutro".
We have not only articles, but also pronouns in three genders.

Laura

Angelina think the same about german until people from other countries remind me what is complicated

I never heard German is complicated

James

Laura German. All fun till 25 letter word salads.

Angelina

Laura I never heard German is complicated

I've heard it from many non-native speakers

James German. All fun till 25 letter word salads.

🤣

Daniil

Laura What do you mean? Aren't articles is normal for English language?

Laura

Daniil Aren't articles is normal for English language?

They are, but not for Russian and other Slavik languages according to James .

Daniil

James Lol, not. I can understand ukrain and beloruss languages hardly(I am russian). We have different words,different rules. For example, in Ukraine language there is "i" letter in words. Ukraine,Russian, Beloruss languages is one family of slavic languages. Another slavic language family include Polish, Chech, Serbian. And they are not the same,as others. They use latin,not cyrrilic

Daniil

Laura Yeah, he is right. We don't have articles.

Angelina

Vanessa I remember well the list of irregular verbs we had to learn...

I still have this list, terrible. 😂

Vanessa I think some words may be hard to pronounce correctly,however,for non-native speakers.

but we pronounce (in most cases) every letter, in contrast to the French 😉

Laura

Angelina but we pronounce (in most cases) every letter, in contrast to the French

Try to find the pronunciation of "l'histoire", I bet it will be far away from what you expect 😂

Vanessa

Angelina I still have this list, terrible. 😂

A classical lesson in english,but useful.And,with a good memory,an easy way to get good grades.😉

Angelina but we pronounce (in most cases) every letter, in contrast to the French 😉

It doesn't make these easier to read!😉

Angelina

🤣

Renita

Angelina but we pronounce (in most cases) every letter,

But where do you put stress in so long words?

Angelina

Laura

I listened to it with the google translator 🤣

Angelina

Vanessa And,with a good memory,an easy way to get good grades.

but if you're more of a logical person like me, it can be negative 🙁

Vanessa

Angelina

You've trouble with these verbs?

Renita

In my case,I'm almost as bad in spanish than in german! 🤣

And spanish,with the "j" that are pronounced as "r" is not very easy too!😉
