class war is way more fun, just look at tf2!
Now I want a team based FPS game where classes are the economic classes.
And you can decide to revolt and switch around the teams to make it proletariat versus bourgeoisie. (The French sure have weird spelling btw)
What ever team that can hold the most strategic points/means of production long enough wins.
tbh English isn't that much better than french at that. Just in this sentence there are a bunch of syllables that don't sound like they should. Y'all can't even decide if color has a u in it 💀
approves in Romance language
no language is perfect, the other guy was just saying french has weirder spelling than english
German is perfect. Everyone will agree how to spell Schifffahrkarte the moment they hear it.
Of course, but english is in the weird spelling side of the spectrum. For (maybe an extreme) example Japanese spelling bees must be boring af cause words are spelled exactly as they are said, and with few exceptions (in kana) every sound has only one character associated with it (two cause there's a second alphabet/syllabary with them)
On the flipside they also have literally thousands of characters in yet a third alphabet because reading only the phonetic ones is a pain in the butt and there are so many homonyms oh my god
