Is English the only language that requires you to sound words out before writing them?
>>62220529
Nope. Every single one does.
>>62220529
Is it a coincidence that so many native English speakers are dangerously retarded or is it genetical? Is it the fluoride in your water?
>>62220529
i don't get it
>>62222247
>genetical
>>62222389
I bet you were moving your lips while reading my post.
>>62222457
I do not read with my lips, unless I am reading to someone. I use internal monologue.
>>62222576
I was assuming you do since you have to think about a basic elements of your own language.
>>62222152
Mine doesn't.
>>62220529
Is thinking too difficult for Americans?
>>62222715
Huh? All I did was make a remark about genetical not being a word. Genetic and genetically are words though.

Oh I'm sorry for making a mistake in my second of three languages I speak. Still, I don't have to think about whether to put a or an in front of a noun like OP.
>>62223276
I am not OP. I am just fucking with you. You think I have good grammar in my second language, which is Spanish? Fuck no. Whatcha speak?
>>62223367
Slovene, English, German. Frankly, I've forgotten a lot when it comes to the latter but it comes back when I'm drunk.
>>62222247
That's what happens when you read American posts 2bh
>>62223473
Fucking eh? That is cool. Your english is excellent by the way.
>>62223664
Well thanks, my mother started teaching me when I was in kindergarten. I only started learning German in the second half of primary school, though.
>>62223809
Oh. What about Italian? I heard they speak slovene on the border.
>>62223863
Italian is taught in municipalities where it is an official language. The children there must learn both Slovene and Italian, no matter their ethnicity. I live in another region, though; closer to the Austrian border.
I wouldn't know about Italians in Italy speaking Slovene, though. The news spoke of more Italians enrolling in Slovene studies and learning Slovene in the process but that's a small number of people.

>English, German
you're pretty much halfway to dutch, why not bump it up to four?
>>62224323
Because I'm doing the Irish course on Duolingo and waiting for the Korean one. Also, I don't really like the sound of Dutch and it's really just a more distant German. It's why I never bothered with Serbo-Croatian.
