How do you pronunciate your counties' name in your language to English. An apostrophe denotes the accent/stress

It's start, as a Dutchfag:

Náy-durr-land (the 'a' as in the English can't, not the American)
>>
dan-mark
>>
pol-ssssska
>>
pi-li-pí-nas
>>
>>75622192
No 'F' at all??
>>
ar-hent-ee-nah
>>
>>75622143
Ing ger land here
>>
>>75622357
we can't pronounce the 'F'; it was originally fi-li-pí-nas
>>
bél-g*ie-jè

g* = soft G, something most foreigners can't seem to pronounce no matter how hard they try
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_and_soft_G_in_Dutch

è = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwa
>>
Es-pa-nya
>>
>>75622424
Is it Ar-hent-éé-nas?

>>75622532
lolwut

>>75622588
You can't pronounce the 'F' seriously? Pih-lee-péé-nas?
>>
>>75622671
'F' doesn't exist in our native language.
>>
>>75622671
Yes, it would be
Ar-hent-éé-na
>>
bu-ra-ji-ru
>>
bul-garrr-eee-ah

The "u" is the "u" in "cunt"
>>
>>75622662
As a Dutchfag I know how difficult this can be yeah hehe

>>75622726
Interesting

>>75622742
So not ...-nas but ...-na
Ar-hen-téé-na

>>75622772
Bro I've been on Holiday there and they said Brá-see-you, the last 2 really short after another. Like Brá-zeew actually
>>
>>75622671
and yes, it's correct.
>>
>>75622143
just vacaroo it all, its much easier
>>
>>75622944
>Ar-hen-téé-na
exactly
>Brá-zeew
that's the way
>>
>>75622143
Flanders:

Vlaanderen =

>"vl"
>"aa

Hard to explain to English speakers, but actually really simple, It's like you say "eye" but without the "ye". But most English speakers I tried to explain this too seem to think "eye" is a singly sound ("I"), which it isn't.

>"n"
>"durr"
>"un"
Like "urn" without the r.

legit had no fucking idea that prostitution is legal in Germany
I'll be in Berlin around August might come in handy
>>
>>75624630
Prostitution is legal in Estonia as well and the age of consent is 14. This created a situation where u could become a legal prostitute at the age of 14. Dunno if it's been fixed now
>>
>>75624630
AFAIK it;s legal in Germany and in my country the Netherlands. Antoniusstrasse is a famout street in Aachen

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aachen

where you can fuck for €30,-. Hot chicks even if you go at the right time.

Here in the NL drugs are close to legal unless you're selling. Drug use is perfectly legal, I got 8 grams of cocaine back from a cop bacause I fucking GAVE it to him when they were doing a weapon search and it wasn't packed in singles.

In Germany drugs is worse than child rape
>>
>>75624515
>You know Russian is
It isn't. Church Slavonic was one of the largest sources of borrowings into Russian, but it wasn't the basis of it.

>medieval Bulgarian
I don't even know what's more retarded: the fact that so-called "Proto-Bulgarian" and "Medieval Bulgarian" belong to two different language families or their co-existence in one country.
>>
>>75624772
I was worries about this here [NL] as well. Age of consent is 16, I could legally fuck a 16 year old bu no.. I only learned about this pretty recently (I'm nearly 31 now) but porn and prostitution is still 18+ but to be honest. I find 18 year old too fucking young too bot either. I would not have sex with most 18 year olds because they look and act like children.

Anyone who does is a paedophile. There's no wiggle room. If you want to fuck an 18 year old above the age of 25 ish (arbitrary) you're a fucking paedophile. Period

Belgum in Dutch

The g is a soft and should be formed in your throat. Belgians have a way softer g than Dutchmen though

Flanders:

Open your mouth widly if you pronounce the 'aa'
>>
>>75623975
There's no significant accent, I put "oo" there to simulate the u in "put" for example

>I don't even know what's more retarded: the fact that so-called "Proto-Bulgarian" and "Medieval Bulgarian" belong to two different language families or their co-existence in one country.
Well, my country actually has a long history (I know that's hard because in Russia you call churches ancient if they're like 4 centuries old). Proto-Bulgarian is a lost language of the Bulgars pre-9th century. Medieval Bulgarian is the Bulgarian language since 9th century. But it's ok for a Russian to not know such things, you probably think your alphabet comes from Lenin or some shit.

Uhm... virtually all the prostitutes here are Romanian

>>75625174
we gotta export something too, don't we
>>
>>75625174
I always hear that with various nationalities (Romanian, Russian, Bulgarian, etc.). When you go to a prostitute do you actually ask for her nationality or you just assume she's x because of reasons? And no, I doubt you're all good at recognising accents.
>>
>>75625327
Look at this damage control haha. No she is because she TELLS you. She's looking for a "husband" to "love" and who can "trust" her.

It would be the same thing as if we called the 8th century East Slavic dialects "Medieval Russian" and the language of Varangians - "Ancient Russian". That's just stupid. Decide who exactly you are already.

No, it wouldn't. Muh ancestors actually called themselves Bulgarians since at least the 7th century. You Moscovites called yourselves a dozen different things.

doubt.jpg

That's not even the point though. The more important thing is if someone actually called the Slavic dialects spoken in the Tsardom "Bulgarian language". I'm pretty sure it was just "Cлoвѣньcкъ ѩзыкъ" at that period of time, which makes referring to it as "Old Bulgarian" kind of anachronistic.
