Language learners be like when am I gonna go from lawless language to flawless language
#the answer is never#native speakers haven't nailed down flawless language#if they did we'd have to use that meme#'finally! Flawless language!'#language learning#languages#grammar#and conjugation will be the end of us all#oh and pronunciation#heard some french speakers today and genuinely had no brain left re: how they're able to shape their mouths into Sounds#they say Welsh is a hard language but goddamnit I find french infinitely harder#but I suppose that depends on what sounds exist in your native language system#I didn't find the sounds in Welsh too hard (surprisingly; I got ll and ch too which aren't really in my language)#but the French ll? Never and don't get me started on r#there's an audio tape of me my sister keeps of my trying to teach her the french R in a moment of heady pride and confidence#I think I sound fairly competent but she uses it as an antidepressant I kid you not#well I convinced her to focus on her pronunciation skills so she got Duolingo and now we'll see who's laughing about R!#Duolingo#french#linguistics is fascinating
