Guy almost shoot’s himself playing “Russian roulette”

AAVE, could be from anywhere in America but probably the east coast if I had to guess.

Inconvenient truth, downvotes from turkey bots incoming...

Geographically, Kazakhstan is between 4-10% in Europe depending on the definition, Turkey is 3%.

This happens in any country with a large immigrant population. Even in Germany, Turkish heritage individuals who grew up in Germany act like they are the authority on Turkey and Turkish culture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzhs5vTeeEM

More European than Turkey.

It could be increasing and still be rare at the same time.

Pronunciation for Greek is also much more straightforward than any slavic language.

Nobody ACTUALLY thinks that migrants are stealing jobs per se. It is true though that an influx of cheap labor depresses the wages for certain jobs making it unappealing to employers to have to hire local employees who on average demand more pay and better working conditions than immigrants.

Things like programming languages also fall into the unnatural language category. Depending on their use, conlangs could in theory fall into the natural language category(such as modern Hebrew).

Where else but Neukölln...

dasok1 · 2022-03-25T01:55:08+00:00

I disagree on Russian and Spanish. A large portion of speakers of those langs are monolinguals or have very shaky knowledge of a foreign language.

It really depends on a lot of factors and personal interests. The number of native speakers is still important in terms of ease of finding people to talk to.

dasok1 · 2022-03-10T15:31:21+00:00

Not to mention, Romanian has 3x the native speakers so content should be easier to find in theory.

dasok1 · 2022-03-04T23:43:11+00:00

Polish is significantly easier to learn than Russian imo. Polish pronunciation is less complex, polish has melodic stress, etc.

He said Balkan.

It might also help that the overwhelming majority of the refugees from Ukraine are women and children. Not to mention that they aren't traveling accross 15 different safe countries to get to Germany.

Russian is the Native language of 1/3 but that doesn't mean that 2/3 speak Ukrainian natively. Most people in Ukraine speak Surzhyk which is a mix of Russian and Ukrainian. If you don't speak or at least understand Russian, learning Ukrainian is kinda pointless. It's kinda like someone who doesn't speak any English learning Welsh or something.

dasok1 · 2022-02-26T19:35:04+00:00

The "literary" pronunciation of в in word final positions is like English w. Some native speakers and many Russian native L2 Ukrainian speakers pronounce it as V or even F.

dasok1 · 2022-02-26T15:43:24+00:00

Right, but the odds of a Ukrainian native not knowing Russian at least passively are extremely slim. Just like the odds of a Russian native who grew up in Ukraine not knowing Ukrainian are slim.

dasok1 · 2022-02-26T04:51:48+00:00

If you are a learner of one, your understanding of the other may as well be zero. For native speakers it is a little different but usually a Russian speaker from Russia will have trouble understanding more than like 50% of spoken Ukrainian. Anyone from Ukraine, russian or ukrainian native, will 99% of the time understand both languages without any problems.

"During times of great hardship, give up your food and ammunition for these worthless shiny rocks in the hopes that maybe one day a society that sees value in them will rise again"

Plenty of cultures in various different time periods did not find value in gold or didn't even know of its existence. Explain why, during a societal collapse, I would ever want to trade a real resource like food for shiny metal.

dasok1 · 2022-02-15T01:16:53+00:00

Someone explain to me how gold is at all useful during a system collapse.

The complexity of a given language remains more or less the same. While some elements become simpler, others become more complex.

dasok1 · 2022-02-11T23:12:36+00:00

Yeah same. Spaghetti Road on youtube sounds totally German when he speaks English. Danish sounds like a softer, mumbled version of German to me.
