I speak Spanish and it's wild to have no many randomly decided silent letters in words. We have the H that is silent always, and that's it. We have Salmón, with the intonation in the o, and we of course pronounce the L. I can't even say salmon without the L while not sounding stupid.

You should see Fr*nch.

They only pronounce the vowels and once in a blue moon a consonant.

But it's systematic. In English, it's systemless, complete wild west out there smh

English took over a lot of French words, originally written and pronounced like the French words, for example saumon (salmon). Then someone decided to go back to how the words were written in Latin (salmo), but they kept pronouncing it more like the French word.

The ultimate blend of multiple languages that are difficult to learn. We shall make it the universal trade language!

(And I know it doesn't have things like tonal shifts)

Not always, fils....

Oh you must be joking.

There is absolutely zero system in half of French's letter salad!

stares from Portugal

"nh" and "lh" are sounds

[–] desto 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are those like ñ and ll in Spanish, or different?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes. You double the letter, we composite it.
