Welcome to Danish.

When I learned that the proper pronunciation of the word queue is basically a letter q followed by a bunch of silent letters, I had to take a break for a while. I enjoy the sound of English language, so that kept me going afterwards, but I am still salty.

Uncensored.

Just do a search for a bit of the text before posting this stuff. It's super easy to find the uncensored version.

POST THAT. Let's kill off this censored trash.

In a sick way I'm glad it's the language I was raised with. On the other hand, maybe the British should have conquered less.

Though he aught to have picked a tougher word.

So.... No one in here has tried to learn Mandarin in here huh?

Let's talk about Hanji, heck worse let's talk about:

四是四，十是十，十四是十四，四十是四十；
谁把十四说“十适”，就打他十四；
谁把四十说“适十”，就打他四十

Which is pronounced like:

sì shì sì, shí shì shí, shísì shì shísì, sìshí shì sìshí;
shéi bǎ shísì shuō “shíshì”, jiù dǎ tā shísì,
shéi bǎ sìshí shuō “shìshí”, jiù dǎ tā sìshí.

To be fair, most of the weirdly spelled words come from other languages. Especially French.

Instant downvote, you know why...

I can hear a word in Spanish and immediately know how to spell it. I can read a word in Spanish and know how to pronounce it. We can only dream of doing that in English.

My favorite has to be "read" (to read a book) and "read" (previously read a book)

I was gonna mention the silent k, h, e but then I remember french. They have like 50% silent letters at random. I remember how flabbergasted I was to see millefeuille written the first time.

As a person who learned English as an adult, u can tell you that the word that gave me the most trouble early on was "weather". I mean these sounds are impossible!!

Sham-pooie.

Because in Old Dutch, the letter g is pronounced like a y when it's at the end of a word.

As a mainly spanish speaker the word that sent me is "brought" and being told is a monosyllabic word I swear I can clanly pass C2 tests and probably C3 tests and that shit still gets me even 10 years working with english speakers.
Also I laugh at any attempt of a pronunciation rule, english is a collage of borrowed words between Latin Anlgic later Fench and some made up ones. A specific word has a way to be pronounced and that's it same syllables in another word can be totally different. When I fail one I got a great trick, if they ask what pronunciation is that I say "Scotland, Ye cannae show I'm wrang"

What about thought, through, tough, though... wtf?! It took me many many years to finally understand this crazyness lol

Lol in Polish
