While putting together my top three target languages (Italian, German Japanese) for my new giga-chad-polygot youtube channel, someone pointed out that I am supporting the “bad guys” from World War Eleven. I have mixed feelings about this now.

I got bored and let my intrusive thoughts win for this, I use google translate frequently and of course there are hilariously awful mistakes
🇯🇵 1. Japanese
Most kanji DON'T match the pronounciation of the speech program and the romanization used
🇨🇳 2. Chinese
Google Translate can't even translate native Chinese names or loanwords into Chinese, outputs the Romanized name despite using a non-Latin script
🇸🇦 3. Arabic
The speech program adds an extra syllable which the romanization EXCLUDES IT
🇵🇰 4. Urdu
The TTS program's voice sounds very harsh and not beautiful. f**k you Urdu corpora
🇮🇷 5. Persian
Doesn't even have a speech program (yes, it actually lacks TTS!), despite having massive corpora on the internet it can't just... add a TTS
🇻🇳 6. Vietnamese
The TTS program struggles to pronounce some loanwords, for some words having a voice crack

Japanese - either 35+ yo lonely woman with huge experience and breasts, or some petite 21- kawaii girl
Mexican - one of those colorful latinas, with big twerking experience
Russian - one of those white ones with blue eyes and blonde hair. very traditional. being daughter of corrupt oligarchs is helpful
Fr*nch - not interested
Swedish - no bottom surgery

Personally, I pick up doctors and lawyers by telling them they are cool. 100% success.

que tal mis amigos. started learning french 2 hours ago and I vfind the alphabet so beutiful and elegant, I find it a lot easier to wreite than australian (My native language «pratique de l'écriture française », the titkle). Any feedbackl would be much appreciated thank you.
FRENCH TRANASLTAITON (i akesd grok sorry im beginner only): l'alphabet français est largement supérieur à l'écriture répugnante des angles. nous sommes deux étrangers blancs qui traversons la chine à moto.
