The pronunciation of words is very different, but the structure/grammar is so similar that you could write something in Mandarin and a Cantonese-speaking person could mostly understand it (and vice-versa).
There isn't any accurate language comparison I can think of, but in terms of learning time, I'd say Italian-Spanish (a few months to learn one language if you already know the other).

>tfw no multilingual family to grow up in and teach me languages when I am just a child
>>58733431
Since you remember a lot of the grammar from Latin, do you think it'd be a benefit when (if you do) learning other European languages?
These threads suck. It's just a dick-measuring contest without any discussion or worthwhile insights.
>>58733519
>grammar from Latin
Ironically it would only help with Slavic languages, because of shitty grammar cases
>>58733519
Yeah, it definitely is. Although Latin was pretty damn hard (mainly since you don't speak it so you don't have the aural way of remembering it), Spanish has been a mostly a breeze since so much of the grammar and vocab pulls from Latin.
It's sort of like a snowball effect. Once you start to learn one language, it becomes easier to learn others. The only problem that arises is when you start to mix words from similar languages together - I took French for a couple of years before I took Latin, and some of my French vocabulary and pronunciation leaks into Spanish.

If you're afraid it's pointless, you could just resign yourself to learning a useful language at the same time so there isn't any guilt. Plus, you'd get the "oh gosh, anon is learning two languages at once" bonus.

Norwegian already has been changed a lot, I don't see how it will be changed unless the spoken language changes more.
We actually made a completely new "language" called 'nynorsk' literal translation is 'new-norwegian' after our independence from the Kingdom of Denmark, made up of different dialects and based on the modern pronounced norwegian as opposed to old-norwegian (heavily influenced by danish).
Of course nobody uses it (like 10%) but it is still taught alongside the common tongue 'bokmål' in schools.
Born in Burma (Myanmar)
Decent English, speak decent Chinese buy can't write, Burmese, decent Norwegian (I lived in Bergen for a while and I think they speak differently), and a bunch of smaller ethnic languages in Myanmar (about 5) so that's around 9 languages. Plus I'm learning African American on a daily basis. I can also perfect Californian and southern accent.

>>58742369
I mean it's a made-up language, so its not really surprising, frankly it sounds pretty bad in my opinion too so I'm not a big fan of it being enforced either.
Nobody really speaks nynorsk 100% regardless, as it's all bits and pieces from seperate places and differences in dialects.
One thing to know about Norway is due to its geography, fjords, valleys and mountains, people have developed dialects over seemingly short distances throughout the centuries that is hard for me to even understand. That is the linguistic cultural value I treasure the most.
I do love language, it's tge most fascinating history of humanity, so its good to hear you pulled through.
>>58742674
I see. If it's a forced, fake creation then it's understandable. We also have different dialects despite being just 50k people. It's mostly because of the limited interaction between the different islands before modern infrastructure was developed in the latter half of the 20th century.
>>58741939

>>58742811
I imagine it being still taught in school is due to its cultural language value and a symbol of independence and a search for norwegian identity after being thrown back and forth in unions between Denmark and Sweden for so many years.
(Our cultural ministers really love their job)
All public institutes are actually, by law, obliged to reply in nynorsk to any formal letter that is written in nynorsk, that they recieve.
So if you want to be a dick you can always send a formal complaint about parking tickets in nynorsk.

>making a mistake in a language you call yourself "fluent" in
Fucking sad 2bh. People these days don't understand the meaning of "fluent". It isn't the same as "proficient". To be fluent in a language, you need to be able to speak it well enough that you can have normal conversations with people without having to dumb down the vocabulary. It come naturally to you and you're able to make your conversation partner forget your status as a non-native speaker. These days people take 2 years of French or finish a Duolingo course and call themselves "fluent", baka...
