I'm panlingual — I lick all the people.

Which romance languages, at that! They're all different! Haha

In Portuguese it's spelled coronel and pronounced just like that, with the R in the middle. I can't think of a single word where the L and R interchange. I can't speak for other romance languages though.

I hate it honestly. The french spent centuries ruling England and messing up our language just for the rest of the world to make fun of us for it as if it's our fault.

Don't forget the ancient Latin that a bunch of scholars pulled in during the 1600s because the French descendants weren't fancy enough.

It is at least 3 languages in a trenchcoat.

One time in high school, I dissociated so hard that I temporarily couldn't understand spoken English. Tbf, I did it intentionally just to see if I could (as nerds do when they're bored in gym class.) It was very interesting. English sounded like a softer German with French pronunciations, which tracks. I thought it sounded pleasant. I still want to know what non-Native English speakers think, but it was fun to listen to English "from the outside" for a few minutes.

If anybody else has had this experience, I'm curious what it was like for you, too.

Hahaha, that's pretty good!

I have no idea how practical it is, but I've definitely been all-in ever since !shavian@lemmy.world popped up a week ago or so lol. It's just really pretty looking and fun

The joke being the word used to describe people who only speak one language is an abomination composed of both greek and latin. Definitely used as an insult, but it's a clever one.

Although I seriously doubt OOP made that choice on purpose, so the secondary joke here is how they included a massive language blunder in the same comment as they were being a snob about languages.

We should write fully phonologically in IPA. You have an accent? Write it down. I want to imagine the voice of the writer better when reading a paper.

Redundant acronym syndrome bothers me too. It irks me that the wikipedia page for it is "RAS Syndrome" which in itself is echoing the issue it's describing. That shit has to be intentional.

It's like how hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia is the fear of long words. That's some fucked up shit. Even it's more official word "sesquipedalophobia" is still a bit long for anyone who experiences that fear.

Moi aussi.
