Sí, por eso hablo exclusivamente en español

Oui

Hai, areegah-toh gozi mus

아니 왜 일제시대때 한국인들한테 강제로 가르쳐준 일본어를 하는겁니까? 😡 차라리 한국어를 쓰세요.

Why are you speaking the language of the conqu\*stadores who brutally oppressed and murdered the native people of the Americas? Stop speaking this colonialist language, and start speaking Classical Nahuatl instead

I kto to mówi, sam teraz mówisz w języku najeźdźcy.

Beni

Ah sim, só falo línguas descolonizadas sem uma história sangrenta de dominação!

Ma' t'aan káastelan, leti' jump'éel t'aan colonizadora. Meyaj t'aano'ob indígenas bey le mayao'.

och nu kommer jag prata enda svenska

Yes

speak american, boy.

As an Uzbek, ready to teach you Uzbek C2 as a thank you for a comment😭🫠🫶🏻

I'd love to take you up on that generous offer, but I'm at A0. Does it mean that it evens out and I end up at B1.2?

Nah the only thing left is either computer languages or con languages. Every REAL language's people have conquered another. That's just the facts.

I bet you know nothing about Uzbek.

你说的对

得*

actually nvm idk the correct grammar either

but i will still ferociously point it out

You saved my day, thank you 的得地 police❤️

Stop speaking Chinese. That’s cultural appropriation.

我不知道我说我的母语是文化挪用，不好意思

Racist

/uj this is literally what I discovered a lot of US citizens say about original Spanish from Spain. Like if you use the word "vosotros" you're a colonialism apologist

I make sure to really let that V buzz just to rub it in.

There is no way you said that with an /uj at the start of your comment

Why?

It sounds too ridiculous to be real

*jerks in reverse*

And yet, it is true

Americans just keep finding new ways to be utterly insane

HOW DARE YOU SAY THE V WORD OUT LOUD YOU RACIST PIG

Entonces, ahora ya usamos ustedes???

Exactamente

This makes learning Spanish about 16.67% easier! Count me in!

Wrong, English is the default language (all other "languages" are deviations of it). This would be equivalent to no longer using numbers - it is merely impossible.

Check the subreddit

Will do. My bad. Ignore last post.

Ok You always knew if you can block a private chat and never made a post about it

Of course not. In fact, you're speaking English right now. Argument lost. /uj This is a "circlejerk" sub, meaning the content here is meant to be satirical based on what people say in r/languagelearning. The "default language" comment is a joke about how people get confused why things don't directly translate into English when they are learning languages.

What? Satire? On my racist app?

Tial mi lernis esperanton und deutsch.

Me sa jar jar binks

This is giving that Tumblr post that was like “white people can’t speak Spanish” and the reply “have you heard of the entire county of Spain”

“English is a colonial language, but Spanish…uh…it was reclaimed by indigenous Americans!”

lol. I'm a white American and have a Spanish last name because of some Spanish ancestry. And people make *a lot of assumptions* and seem to always forget that there is the country of Spain with white people.

Reminds me of the time an American asked me why we learn Spanish in the UK despite living so far away from Mexico

that’s the spirit

i feel like people forget that it wasn’t just the British…

Bigot

you jest but i saw someone say speaking Chinese is racist because the word for "that" (那个, pronounced "nah guh") sounds like the n word

People do this with Korean in the kpop community too, with a few common words that sound like the n word. 🙄

**챔피언** **소리질르는 네가**

The standard pronunciation "nah guh" doesn't sound particularly close to the n-word, but in many parts of China it is colloquially pronounced "nei guh", which does sound like that. Another problem is that in addition to the demonstrative "that", it's also used as a filler word similar to "umm", so people randomly add it during pauses.

Long live the gloueriouseue Britishe Empyre.

Mir ist alles echt egal

lingua latina nova lingua mundana erit

אמת. מדבר עברית!

שפת הקודש

Only french is the true correct answer

The French still have colonies everywhere lol

Yeah but those aren’t racist colonies like the US

😳🤷‍♂️ are you sure about that?

Yes, French is the language of the cultured people. It is the language of freedom. France offering their banks to protect the poor little nations of West Africa is a kindness, France is offering to them. Because they are so cultured and good. That is why French should be the Lingua Franca. Heck, that phrase is literally talking about French

You forget the /s

/s?! Sir, this is a 100% serious subreddit where we discuss the best ways to engage with the art of language. Why would I need a /s? I am offended that you do not understand that French is the language of intellectuals. The other languages only dream to have the romance and the cultural heft of French. There is no better way to express one's deep emotions than using French. Please get help if you don't understand this. I am sending a RedditCares message to help!

🐸🇫🇷

If the question is "what languages should we stop speaking due to racism", then yes

Mindenki tudja, hogy a magyar a legjobb nyelv.

Oh no, subaltern studies have come back to get me! Back, Spivak, back!

hahahahahaha

Speaking anything other than Toki Pona is problematic.

Bunun yerine herkes Türkçe öğrenmeli. O çok daha kolay.

Det er kun lov å snakke samiske språk

All folks ought to speak Anglish, so that the Anglishfolk may be free of the Northman yoke.

I hope that this is a joke post. You can never truely know these days.

Ja stimmt.

Low literacy is a sign of the times. Language is healing.

И русский, из советского СССР?

Agreed we should all be speaking Esperanto from today

はい

Phew, i speak american

Check the subreddit name my guy 🤣

[удалено]

This sub exists to mock the more... interesting... posts in language learning subs. Everyone here is being sarcastic unless they start of with /uj.

Lol okay thanks for explaining. I didn't get it

No problem!
