Why can't the English speak English? - Namely "th"

[Feefee81093]

Why can't they say sixth, through, or three? Are they huffing street jankem?

I never thought about it, but I hate their 'r' declensions. If I wanted that, I would just speak German (which Allah be merciful, I unfortunately do fluently). I got so many beatings over my hard 'r's it was traumatizing and I need a shot of Buffalo Trace and and warm blankie.

For the people learning the language, English has a very easy grammar but a very difficult pronunciation. It is the opposite of Spanish, which has a very difficult grammar but a very easy pronunciation.

My sweet summer child, try learning German. Every noun has a grammatical gender based on literally nothing and has to have the article or adjective to be properly declined according to case and gender. Even after 20 years I still fuck this up. It was easier to grasp things like Lithuanian which has a more complex case system but it all makes intuitive sense.

They can't say "Home Depot" properly.

I hate German. The language is terrible and the people smell like sauerkraut. On the other hand I'm finding Japanese easier to learn, but it's probably because I grew up in a multilingual household.

It's weird how someone with a British accent can say "gang hime" and you parse it as "going home" and it's completely normal. I'm amazed anyone can learn this language.

Of all the English accents the English have the worst.

I understood every single work uttered in this video immediately listening to it, and I hail from approximately nowhere near it's origin. Until you reach this level of tolerance for sheer raw abuse of the English language, I feel you have no place to comment judgementally on its permutations.

Although at the same time, feel free to descend as far into Smoky Mountain dialect, or whatever similar absurdity, as you feel comfortable. Such wanton disregard for the standard is full part and parcel of the freelance fun to be had speaking the queens english, or an approximation thereof. Just know that whatever godforsaken corruption of its core you adopt as your daily driver, it shall be held forth for ridicule just as harshly as that which you take in vain today.

Pronouncing 'th' as 'f' is mainly a London thing.

Ah but it is interesting because if you can speak both English and German you have a passing understanding of at least Dutch and some nearly unfortunately dead dialects. I can't speak Dutch but I can read and actively understand it. Never spent a day trying to learn Dutch. I can make out most other Germanic languages if I squint hard enough. You would think Icelandic would be the hardest, but for me it is Danish.

Tard teeth often gets in the way of speaking your own language.
