Worst Language Debate Thread

[Turquoise]

hard tie between bahasa indonesia, vietnamese , and northern mandarin dialect.

For those unfamiliar with northern Chinese dialect, every word is a consonant sound + arrrrrrrrrr, a bit like that noise Oddjob sometimes makes in Goldfinger.

German is my favorite. Especially when sung. And I mean sung. Not necessarily some hard rock band grunting and growling.

Venusian and Plutonian are quite nice too. A dude who was taught them by aliens demonstrated his language skills to Patrick Moore once.

Dumb custom alphabet

Anglonigger seething because Slavs have a superior alphabet, where each letter corresponds to a sound, and we don't need to string two letters together for one sound.
Look at what the Polish have to do with their retarded switch to the Roman alphabet.

Too bad Cyrillic is ugly AF. The D is especially stupid looking (said every woman ever, to me)

The Latin alphabet is kinda pretty, all things considered. Especially in this here serif font that I'm looking at, whatever it is.

I will just post here some Polish words and names so you can judge for yourself.

Szczęście

Mężczyzna

Grzegorz Braun (the rz is pronounced like s in measure)

Lwow

Wrocław (pronounced like Vrotswuff)

And this is what I could remember in like a minute or two, it looks even worse when you look at whole sentences it's just an endless stream of retarded ass words like above.

Honestly, I never saw this as a deal-breaker. Yes, Polish orthography looks stupid depending on who you ask, but I imagine if nothing else it's at least consistent. Unless I'm mistaken, you pretty much know that every time you see a cz digraph it makes a [t͡ʂ] sound (akin to that in child), or that the letter ł makes [w]. English doesn't even have that going for it, considering every letter (or even digraph or other regular combination of letters) used in it could correspond to any one of like five fucking phonemes.

esperanto, the most fake and gay language

20 very Autistic people from Belgium would be very upset with you if they weren’t too busy shilling for NAFO.

 

[UnclePanda]

Dutch. Absolutely no contest for me.

By FAR Mandarin and/or Japanese. Speaking or listening to it? Cool, it's fine. Japanese sounds awesome too (I'm not a weeb I promise).

But then you get to writing. Let's start with Japanese first.

Doesn't seem so bad at first, does it? There's one more chart just for foreigner things. A bit strange, but ehh, alright.
But then you get to the OTHER part about Japanese, and this is where Chinese/Mandarin comes in.
Thousands upon thousands of "Kanji"/Mandarin characters, they're fucking everywhere.
There are nearly one hundred thousand in the language officially in the Unicode Standard. You only have to memorize 2000-3000 for daily speech, which is better, but still not great.
Then imagine Japanese. Instead of sticking to this very nice and simple alphabet, you know what they do? They throw EVERYTHING out of the fucking window and just mesh them back in with Mandarin characters.

What's the fucking point????

dutch. "welkom in nederland" language made up by the EU

 

[BeckhoffAX5702]

I nominate German due to the fucking articles.

 

[Athena Save Us!]

bahasa indonesia

I'm throwing in my vote for this one, too.

You're the second person to say Indonesian.

What's wrong with it, exactly?

I decided that Indonesian was going to be the next language I learned (I already studied Japanese and Norwegian), so I decided to start how I always do: just finding a TV show to watch or a movie I don't mind watching over and over. This lets the brain absorb the sounds and makes pronunciation much easier once you decide to start cracking open books.

So I managed to find some TV show that furries in the US would love if it had an English translation. Basically, girls get cursed by a magic monkey to turn into the cheapest-looking monkeys when they get mad or something. Strangely not sexual, until trannies and furries discover it exists. I only decided to watch it because, unlike most Indonesian dramas, I could get the gist of what was going on even without subtitles. I hate watching stuff if I can't even discern the plot, and I figured this would be kind of like those batty pajeet shows.

I went to see if I could link to an episode so you could get an idea of how awful the language is, but the streaming site won't show it for free anymore...

Even old men sound like teenage mean girls in this language.

 

[Soso]

Esperanto. I never liked it.

 

[Blue Flying Leaf]

Esperanto. Academics made a caste and put themselves into it.
It was made by the nosebergs too

 

[Iron Jaguar]

The worst feature of the Slavic peoples is their language.

No, it's their features.

The worst languages are tonal ones.

 

[Gay Sex Enjoyer]

Pidgin.

It's literally Retardeese.

 

[Detective Carey]

I was going to say honestly it's not always language, it's shitty enunciation/being a mush mouthed retard that is the worst, but then I remembered Pidgin exists, so that.

Second runner up for maybe not ALL Spanish, but whatever shit tier level they speak when they creep across the border. It's like they don't have fucking consonants, everything is hard A's and both hard and soft E's regardless of which letter a word fucking actually starts with.

"Ehlcome eto Eeeurger Abing, acana atakki ehyur arder? Obay, eeeeetoo ahjizzburgas, an etu EHhhhhchesprydz? athankoo ahdrivepoo."

Then the psycho at the drive through basically chucks the food at me, like I'm an asshole for patronizing their place of business, and visibly rolls their fat squinty eyes at me before slamming the window closed. WTF

 

[Ice Mountain]

No one's gonna go for the low-hanging fruit of the Jeet languages? Guess I will. Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil, whatever other fucking babble they speak. It's all incomprehensible and disgusting to listen to, and that's not even taking the people speaking it into consideration.

My own personal beef lies with Korean, however. I've never heard someone speaking Korean that didn't sound like they were whining the whole time. Bonus points for sounding ugly in general, too.
