>a mexican calling a language retarded

Mexican accents in both English and Spanish are the worst I've ever heard.

>tortilla is pronounced "tortiya"

Why is Spanish so retarded?

>>72864148
It isn't

>>72864554
Where I come from, people say "tortía". Pronunciation varies depending on the region.

Believe it or not English is not an installable language, but one that was and is in a constant state of evolution depending on where its spoken

liutennant "leftennent"

The colonel from Worcestershire enjoys the cacophany emitted by his choir of sixty squirrels.

Good pronounciation practice.

>>72864997
No thank you, I'd rather just burp, do a horrendous spit or speak French

>>72864932
British English is so effeminate and gay. Americans pronounce it "LOOtennent.

The fuck is this shit!?

I don't understand, why would you do this
Also, why do people say "cajones" when talking about balls? It's "cojones", "cajones" means chests or dressers

It is actually pronounced "steik"

>>72862146

George Bernard Shaw made a bequest to fund a simplified phonetic script for the English language. You'll sometimes find versions of his work with parallel texts in Shavian.

Computers literal translation is ordenador. Sudacas just took an anglo word and add adora to make it Spanish. As always they are retarded

Usually when a language adopts a foreign word, they either change the spelling to match the pronounciation, or they change the pronounciation to match the spelling.

English does neither, truly is a retarded language but I am forced to use it to be able to communicate with other people on this tibetan tapissery website.
