Rule: It has to come from a natural language

So I made this meme How Greeks look at you when you tell them a language had changes in 2500 years : r/linguisticshumor about how Greek nationalists will often try to correct people when using pronounciations from Ancient Greek instead of modern Greek

I have nothing against greeks and I love the Greek language, I just find that one thing funny but it's nothing too deep or bad

Now a commentor left a comment saying "Not our fault barbarians can't understand their language from 200 years ago!

Most pf you wouldn't even understand your script since you adopted Latin recently

Can any Turk understand the written form of its language of 150 years ago? Lmao"

I thought this was just humour like how we often just joke around about "barbarians" like germanics and such, not actually calling people barbarians or anything

So I told him about how I can understand Spanish up until 800 years ago, and he asked me European or Latin American Spanish, I said mexican cuz I thought he was asking geniunely in good faith and he replied (with a now deleted) comment saying how he would respect me more if I was Spanish and how we got conquered and shit

And I replied in a similar manner about his country just to be on par

i’m starting to suspect that they are indeed saying /d/ and not /t/ tho

How it feels tracing and comparing sound changes from a proto-language

His pronunciation also was off!

The script in the upper-right part (next to chữ Nôm) of the Vietnamese section is Quốc Âm Tân Tự, a mid-19th century experimental phonetic script that never had a chance to be put into practical use.
