Dark Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 [quote name='?someone?' timestamp='1301699137' post='5105652'] What are you talking aboot? [/quote] Canadians speak the language of hockey, right? I really only know two languages, English and Spanish, and I find it more likely for people to be bitching about Spanish. Spanish has so many different tenses, and I can't think of that many for English. Why don't you guys help me? Find all of the tenses in English of the verb "to jump", that don't use a helping verb like "will" or "has". jump jumps jumping jumped The helping verbs are few in quantity, like was/were, is/are, et cetera. And how many tenses does Spanish have? A shitton, not to mention you have to correct the conjugation for the subject, so that is literally five times the amount of "verb forms". okey im dun complaynin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 It bothers I have to teach my little bro spelling and yet he fails at spelling words that sound one way. For example, if he spells, "punctuation", he can spell it, "punchoation", or something along the lines. With that I get in trouble for his horrible spelling tests.... Sometimes English words for me can sometimes don't make sense sometimes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yasu Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 Latin and most romance languages are the easiest for me. (Except French and Portuguese) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, a Latin word can use the future-perfect tense in one word while English requires four. But English is an average language to learn in terms of difficulty. Also the de facto language of the world, so learning to speak it is generally easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.P3 Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 English is quite easy simply because once you learn one word, you most likely learn another five, English is just a lot of words pronounced different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 [i]Why does that word change in the middle? [/i] Why does Spanish have irregulars? All languages have their rule-breaking words, but people love to target English because we speak English on forums. You are more likely to notice conscience isn't pronounced like science way before you notice some irregular in Spanish breaks the pattern or some s[b][/b]hit like that.

Womi Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 I like your double negations which then becomes a NEGATION SQUARED BUT NOT ANNULIFIEDEDED! As in 'I don't see no cow.". But I find English to be pretty easy compared to French or Asian languages. I always feel sorry for those who have to learn German. It must be a b****.

Ярополк Пономарёв Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Good sir, I never had a problem with speaking English, ever. It's so easy to me, and I never see why some people say it's hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
