Happens to me constantly, especially with friends of opposite sex, I try to let it go but its never ideal. I have 3 close friends of 10+ years that I gave my everything for and slowly they left me, just keep talking to new people and you will see the ones that respect you.

Spanish is definitely a god-tier language to have as a native, as it is very complicated to learn and gives you a very complete groundwork for pronouncing whatever they throw at you in any language.
Nothing feels better than listening an anglo trying to roll his R's or pronounce the L properly, sounding like a complete retard.

Something about a dacian dig, supervisor thought it would be relevant because we were doing a bunch of illyrian potteries and he thought there was dacian stuff in the pile, but it turned out to be completely useless and only one pot was of dacian origin.
>>60467601
Tell me about your grandparents
>>60467623
Yeah, but compared to Portuguese, English isn't really connected to other languages.
Let's say, if I wanted to learn Italian, I have to start all over again, compared to Romance language speakers.

I can't go back to being a neet. I got that job because my dad knew the old manager who retired. I have no references or anything to put on a resume for a new job.

yes but once you learn it will be much more easier to learn other romance languages, also english got tons of latinized words too. No knowledge is lost m8 :D
If linguistics existed back in 0 AD, would Latin and Proto-Germanic be in the same direct language family the way English is in Germanic and French is in Romance now?
>>60467266
>learn 1 romance language

Best bargain ever IMO
>italians wave their hands around while they shitpost
>tfw the first romans was ruled by kings who was black. Tarquinius superbus the last black king of rome was overthrown by the whiteys who ruled rome for a couple of centuries. Until sulla the great black general overthrew the whiteys and exterminated them in the social war. Now blacks was running rome again and a whitey wasnt seen in the region again until it was sacked by alaric and the whiteys eventually killed or sent the black romans to africa. Julius caesar was black

>> Complicated
>>60467884
that is a real shame. I am sure you'll be able to find a job as long as you're as good of a cook as you say. at least the restaurant will probably be a lot worse off without you if you can take any kind of solace in that.
>>60467109
i-i though we were friends
>>60467111
What that
>>60467994
Man, i've met many foreigners, from all over.
Not one, not a single one, was able to speak perfectly. They always fucked up some article, conjugation or the gender.
"Yo no ha comido"
"El hamburguesa"
Shit like that. With all those different cases we have it's pretty hard to get it 100% right.
>>60467109
Non romance languages sound like keyboard mashing
>>60468087
if you pay attention to your peers you'll notice nobody ever speaks perfectly in any language.
>>60467086
Amo-vos.
Saudade.
>>60468116
Really? Have you ever heard an actual semi-cultured native speaker making the same mistakes i mentioned?
Yeah, we fuck up too, but not that kind of fuck ups. Maybe with shit like "la agua", but those are just fairly common misconceptions.
>hang around italians or brazilians
>always have, at leats, the context of what they are talking about
feels good
>>60468178
we do, constantly.
then again argentines have mastered the art of marklar speech
>>60467266
I feel ya brazil-bro, i can pretty much understand written Portuguese without even knowing it.
>>60468233
I guess that's a consequence of living surrounded by chilelnos and bolis.
>>60468178
>Really? Have you ever heard an actual semi-cultured native speaker making the same mistakes i mentioned?
It's extremely common if spoken fast, and 99% of the time, professional translators in high level shit, the people who know this stuff, get fucked on their own native language.

Well, English is arguably the easiest of the European languages and we've learned the language for a whopping decade yet many of us fail to be fluent at it.
Now you learn another language from the very start which has features like
>grammatical genders
>noun declensions
>verb conjugations
>etc

We can pronounce them but we don't use them as they're non existent in our speech

you literally cannot pronounce them though
that's why Christmas is fucking 크리스마스
>>60474992

Lmao.
>>60467109
That's true for a bunch of them like spanish, italian, romanian or portuguese, but not all of them.
>>60475201
>that's why Christmas is fucking 크리스마스
Nope. It's because we can't write consonant clusters with our alphabet
>>60471014
>using romance language introduced artificially by pseudo-intellectuals in the 19th century

Feels even worse
>>60475219

>>60475242
>>using romance language introduced artificially by pseudo-intellectuals in the 19th century
What?
>>60475242
If you know the orthographic rules, can you understand Romanain texts that were written in Cyrillic?
>>60474894
Aй нoy, paйт?
>>60475208
That only shows that Polish is the rightful successor of Latin. E.g. in Polish everyone is a "sir" and respect comes by default with Polish language. Poles on the other hand forgot how to properly teach kids the ideology and culture, thus we are rude most of times despite the language.

>>60475400
>Serbo-Croatian, Slovene
What? I've seen a Croat speaking Japanese and she literally spoke "vakarimašita"
>>60475471
maybe he was a retard
>>60475493
But there is no /w/ in Cepбo-Hrvatski
>>60475268
Sure I do. If you know the Cyrillic alphabet, it was the same language, now for instance there has been added a "-ul" ending at the definite article of masculine nouns. Back in the day, it would only be added in "u", similar to thr Slavic languages. For instance prieten - friend and prietenu - the friend. Since the late 19th century, it is "prietenul".
>>60475265
Back in the day, Romania was more Slavic.
>>60475471
ha?
>>60475541
there is, it's an allophone of ʋ
it's not contrastive this I can admit
>>60467884
>I have no references or anything to put on a resume for a new job.
What about your coworkers?
>>60475604
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbo-Croatian_phonology
>/ʋ/ is labiovelar [w] before /u/, as in vuk [wûːk]
So not in any other position. That's not much different from just [u:] like your ó
>>60467942
Indo-European?

Would have been neat.

Asturian masterrace reporting in.
>>60475726
it's generally assumed that there was simply no such Ur-language as Indo-European, it's a continuum of dialects that strayed farther and farther from each other until differences became vital enough to divide them to families
>>60467524
>Catalan
Better not know how to speak imo senpai
>>60475864
How does that work? If it's a continuum of dialects, then where did their similarities originate?
>>60476015
most probably language originated somewhere as a method of communication inherent to humans (human trachea is one of a kind, as well as three parts of our brains) and became more and more streamlined, gained more and more systematic grammar until something language-like emerged
as nomadic people moved around, they had a number of unique stimuli to reshape their primitive languages to accomodate, most likely their speech was very idiosynchratic and could vary among individuals (as there was no written standard to relate to)
with time, as nomad communities began to settle down, to speak something generally recognisable by all inhabitants became favoured and so languages emerged
it's all theories though, as there is simply no records of speech be it written or spoken beyond Sumer
>>60467889
ugh. it sounds so bad. As an American, hearing the "correct" pronunciations just sounds like a spic accent. So effeminate and high pitched. You all sound like whiny bitches. Especially the L. I don't find it hard to talk like that, but I feel like I'm just doing a spic impersonation then. No thanks.

It's not.
But it is the same as it was spoken 500 years ago.
There was no unified "German language" back then, Luther's Bible German became the Standard in time.
Germans should be able to read the original Bible translation without problem.
>>60483565
No it does not, as our language retains the case system and other grammatical features from back then.
Your language does not, it devolved into a mess. I'm sorry for the raid of Rome, by the way.
I truly am. So much was lost.
>>60483651

>>60483651
My friend, modern italian is really similar to the dialect that was spoken in Florence in 1300. I can read Dante Alighieri's Divine comedy and understand most of it. Your argument is invalid
