Sometimes I wonder why non English speakers are like this

because it’s a funny harmless joke at the expense of the world’s current lingua franca, whose native speakers often make fun of the ‘weird’ accents and pronounciation of people who very likely speak at least one more language then they do.

^^^^

Bitch👏how👏do👏you👏call👏these👏people👏"“non-english speakers”“👏👏👏👏👏
Literally the only language used in this post is English

Okay, somewhere a linguist is dying over this post or has already died over this post, so let’s light a candle for them but like….there are at least three amazing things about this post.

(1) You can actually get a sense of what different letters and dipthongs are meant to sound like in the language the person is using. They’re literally sounding it out for you in THEIR language, so if you’re trying to learn a language, this isn’t a bad place to start. Like, “so what DOES the letter “j” sound like in Finnish.”

(2) The guy who just swung by with the Cyrillic alphabet and all the other non-latinate languages, though I have no idea how well done they are (I assume quite) and are very funny to people who speak those languages…

(3) The ones where I actually do speak (some) of the language, it’s also fun to see where the person really batters the dipthongs especially. Like, not in a bad way but in an actual “lol I can HEAR the [xyz] accent in this sentence” because that is how the dipthong spelled in English SOUNDS in their language (even if it doesn’t sound that way in our language) and some dipthongs are way harder to pick up then others (I’m looking at you “gn” in Italian, “ng” in Vietnamese…which I don’t speak but I have to say a lot [if you happen to know Vietnamese people, you will understand why] and basically ALL OF FRENCH) and for the languages I know well enough, I can see where the person is substituting their language’s sound for ours.

Basically what I’m saying is that if you’re enough of a nerd, this post is a delight. And also should be archived for, like, science.

Whelming as heck, and I’ll probably be ridiculously confused over what I just watched for weeks to come.

I don’t remember ever being this bewildered by the premise and structure of an episode before.

Hopefully the rest of S8 won’t be like that.

BUT HEY! At least the New 6 are actually pretty cool! Give me more pls

5/10, needs more plants

This is some weird mismatching postmodern/surrealist shit.

  • Magical world of many magical races.
  • Bureaucracy in education.
  • Magical world of magical racism
  • Emotional distress over a school.
  • International war over missing students.
  • Furballs of death.

What is even happening???

i disagree on the “racism” part.

chanceller pony isnt used to having foreign species in equestria.

he just needs talking to.

Hmm true. (Season-spanning conflict maybe?)

Although, I’m memeing a bit. Like calling Starlight a communist and stuff like that. Not 100% serious :P

It’s been months since I’ve seen pony and I’m pretty far behind and yet I’m still watching the premiere, having missed half a season and an entire movie.

I’m confused, but intrigued.

The best thing in my apartment complex is the DDR machine with an entire section filled with pony songs and remixes and it’s amazing.
