TheBat@lemmy.world 2 years agoYour first mistake was to speak in a language which randomly decides to have some extra letters which it doesn’t pronounce.

Yes, but much worse.

There’s nothing worse in terms of pronunciation than English. French is silly for writing twice as much as what’s pronounced, but at least it mostly follows some rules.

Doesn’t english just get that from being three languages in a trench coat?
TheBat@lemmy.world 2 years ago
I learnt English as my second (technically third) language. Other two languages I know are written and spoken exactly the same.
So take it from me, French pronunciation can be baffling or straight up ridiculous at times. English has got nothing on it. I don’t care if French aren’t heureux at this comment.

I am now very competent in Spanish and making no progress in France. Real speakers sound nothing like the classroom. It’s so frustrating. I feel like the French are all mumbling with Nutella in their mouths, but my tutor is clear as a bell.

French literally has rules with more exceptions than things that apply to the rule.

I am currently learning French and what gets me is how much are the French language is contextual for its meaning
