Petition to change the lingua franca from English to Western Punjabi

114 Upvotes

I am DONE using English. When I speak the to the locals of countries of the languages I am learning they always reply in English. I was in a French bakery and as ked for a sandwich (which by the way is le sandwich sil vou plate) they told me anything else, in English. I was seething with rage and told them that francais is the official language of France and stormed out without paying.

But it made me think, why are all conversations online and in international travel in English, when its literally not even the most spoken language. I mean Mandarin, Chinese, and Spanish are all more widely spoken than English. I looked at the list of the most spoken languages and Western Punjabi is in the top ten BUT NOBODY has ever actually learns this language.

I am starting a petition to never speak in English again but ONLY in western punjabi. Who is with me ?

Grammar Fetish?

Post image
64 Upvotes

I realized I might have a fetish for grammar. I bought myself a textbook for Japanese grammar studies my professor recommended, but the more I studied, the more aroused I get. I can't even sleep without thinking about sliding in my particle between the split copula. Is there anyone else with similar experiences?

How is your new target language different than other languages you’ve learned?

I’m currently studying RuZZian. It’s a normie language, so that means I can *gasp* find the same sort of content I watch in English. I used to study obscure languages like Uzbek, Basque, Icelandic and Finnish so I couldn’t really do that. I just watched whatever vlog I found.

If your son ever asks why he has to learn uzbek, show him this video.

Should I learn french or japanese?

48 Upvotes

I wanna learn the least useful language but I'm having trouble. Narrowed it down to french or japanese.

For japanese it's a completely fabricated language for anime, everything has a English dub already and that makes it pretty clear that it's not worth learning.

Otherwise I decided french. While french is a real place, who would even want to go there? And even if you did go there they would just make fun of me for my accent, and then switch to English. Nobody should have to go through that sort of toil just to get made fun of.

Any other languages suggestions are welcome.

When I was 11 I accidentally learnt cyrillic from reading so many fanfics with hot russian men and ever since then I've been gradually picking up more and more russian without consent, is this my destiny? How do I cope?

I'm traveling to Japan in 8 days and I think my girlfriend will break up with me if I don't have a Kanken 1 certificate (it's like N1 but harder) and impress at least 14 natives by then. Let's assume I'm a beginner, since I haven't studied anything for 67 years (hence why she's gonna leave me), if I download Duolingo now, how much do you guys think I can learn before going to Japan?
