Do Hungarian and Finn /int/ anons feel weird/foreigners for speaking non indoeuropean languages?
>>62227246
couldn't care less to be honest
>>62227246
You can't praise tengri while speaking an indo-european language so they should feel blessed
>>62227397
ok
i asked this because int is mostly a linguistics board and thought it could have affected you.

Cute af
It's not like you care about the language family when you're speaking the langauge.
English feels closer to French than to German, even though they're both Germanic.
>>62227524
both germanic and romance are indoeuropean
Greek is alone and slovenian is slavic but still we are both together in indoeuropean.I feel this unity.
hungarian and finnish are not with us
>>62227524
Yeah 35% of the English vocabulary consists of French words but it still sounds closer to German

>sounds closer to German
no
>>62227246
I don't feel weird. Not that that is a prerequisite for acknowledging the fact that we have little in common with Indo-Europeans.
>>62228493
You don't have much in common with Hungarians desu
Maybe with Estonians
>>62228218
Yes, it does for a foreigner

>English feels closer to French than to German,
It just looks similar at first glance because a lot of the words are similar/the same, the grammar is actually pretty different. English also sounds more like German than French.
>>62227246
you are the weird not us
>>62228643
i think you confuse german with another language. english sounds rather smooth while german is considered harsh

>>62228753
Well, that's pretty subjective, isn't it? I speak both French and German.
>>62228599
I never said we did.
>>62228900
I guess it is subjective, but English and German share more sounds than English and French. English and German are also both stress-timed languages, whereas French is syllable-timed, so English and German have a more similar "flow" than English and German (which I guess is why French people often mess up the stress when they speak English).

Finnish still has common words from sumerian and cases are like they are nowadays.

the grammatical logic is similar. They are both agglutinating and use a conjugation system for most purposes instead of inflexion or word order.
>>62229076
Maybe it's because I first learnt German and then French. I don't know why is that.
You have solid linguistic arguments.

i suggest to revise the phonologies of all three languages. french and english phonologies are almost identical, except some minor differences regarding vowel system. german works quite differently, even though we share the same roots and morphology stuff.

This isn't true at all though. French has quite a few sounds that English lacks (and vice-versa), and the stress and enunciation is very different between the two languages. What makes you make such claims?
>>62227246
Not at all. I speak English since age 7 though and half the time I'm thinking in English in my head. Also I think most Hungarians are not really aware of the fact that our language is not Indo-European.
>>62228218
It definitely does if you don't speak either.

Maybe not half. But the overwhelming majority of any thought-provoking input I get is in English. It's just natural I guess.
