also the first sound (Dutch G) is not unique in any way, because I can think of minimum three other examples. the Spanish J (jota) the Russian Х (kha) the Arabic ﺥ (khā)
There's a fun fact about cyrillic "K" compared to latin "K". Typography wise they have different anatomies. And if you're creating a typeface, you could get into trouble with seasoned typographers for not knowing this : ) Also in handwriting a lot of cyrillic letters don't look like there machine typed versions. For example "д" can be written as "g" or a horizontally mirrored "6", and as a "D" when capitalised

If anyone is wondering what "シ" and "ツ" means in japanese katakana, it's basically Pronounced as "shi"(シ) like in 'shield' and "tsu"(ツ) like in "tsunami"(depending on your pronunciation to the word, the 't' part is pronounced a bit)
So they are not like Ш and Щ, which is pronounced similarly. The question is: Why they so similar? it's a japanese trick to troll foreigners learning japanese!?
@@Krasniysharigg absolutely. It is a huge prank bro. (But a good way to tell ツ(tsu) and シ(shi) apart is by seeing where the dashes are. If they are next to each other, it’s a tsu, if they are on top of each other, it’s a shi.)

Before the standardization of Basque orthography, ŕ and ĺ were proposed by Sabino Arana Goiri to respectively represent intervocalic [r] sound and [ʎ] sound. They didn't make it to the actual alphabet, but they would have been pretty cool imo
There are those letters in my language ( slovak) and they just make the r and l sound longer, interesting to see that they were proposed in basque (tha language that i find absolutely fascinating)
however in slovak ortography ŕ and ĺ is not intervocalic, on the contrary, it is always between consonants. Does Basque have any non-intervocalic r/l that would make a difference to ŕ/ĺ?
@@popularmisconception1 yes, Basque has a non-intervocalic [r], but its intervocalic counterpart would have been marked has to contrast with [ɾ]. does not have a non-intervocalic counterpart but would have simply written the [ʎ] sound
The R in Portuguese is crazy because depending on where it is in the word AND depending on the accent of the person speaking it can represent basically all the sounds for R in European languages. In some places it’s even pronounced the English way.
@@Madokaexe I'm from São Paulo countryside, in some places, there's a case of people having a phenomenon called "língua presa", which means they can't say the letter R properly, so they mostly say like the RR letter according to their accent, and most people confuse us with an American that has a perfect Portuguese except for the R sound.
Ы - is actually as easy one, it substitutes И - the equivalent of I in English, but adds more "hardness". For instance, ЖИВОТ (belly) is actually pronounced as ЖЫВОТ, but by rules Ж can only be combined with И and almost never with Ы. So using Ы is relatively rare in writing but very common sound in speaking.

@@user-tk2jy8xr8b Ъ still has a sound in Bulgarian that Russians can't pronounce it properly. It's the only language besides Interslavic that has a sound. Щ at least in Bulgarian is pronounced like ШТ which makes much more sense than the Russian one. In some dying dialects in Northern Greece Щ was pronounced like ШЧ like Ukrainian but Standard one always had it as ШТ like Church Slavonic.
@@HeroManNick132 Bulgarian is not the only lang with that sound, you can find it in Estonian, Chinese, Thai and some others The existence of Щ makes no sense whatsoever, шт and шч can be expressed with... шт and шч in Bulgarian and Ukrainian, шь should have been used in Russian
3:51 Learning Katakana got really fun with these two, being Tsu (ツ) and Shi (シ) They look practically identical, which is great because they're Hiragana forms (つ and し respectively) are very distinguishable. Why is this a thing. There are a lot weird things like that, like how Sa and Ki (さ and き) look basically the same as well but are very different
About the ß, this is actually extremely interesting: The only easy part about German is its spelling. You say what you read and you write what you hear. There are some rules, notably: 1. A double consonant (same consonant written twice) makes the preceding vowel short. 2. An s written on its own is a voiced ("soft") s, like in English "hazard" [z], a double ss makes a voiceles ("hard") s, like in English "pasta" [s]. Now, you can maybe already see a problem: what if you want to write a word with a long vowel, but with a sharp s afterwards? For a long vowel, you'd write only one s afterwards, but for a sharp s, you need two. So this is how this wonderful character was born: it makes the sharp s sound, but counts as only one letter, allowing the preceding vowel to become long. Example: Masse (the mass), short a, sharp s [masə]. Maße (the measures), long a, sharp s [maːsə]. Historic trivia: Historically, people avoided the problem by writing sz (no double s, so allows for long vowel, but indicates sharp s sound). This is why it's called "esszett" (s z, literally). The historic s shape was like an f without the crossbar, if you combine that with a z, you get the historically accurate ß shape, nowadays we usually refer to the combination of the long s and an s. Even more trivia: a few years ago, a wonderful NEW LETTER was introduced to German spelling: the capital ß: ẞ. For a long time, people argued this was not necessary, as an ß only ever occurs in the middle of words, never at the beginning, and is thus never written in capital form. But if you write a word in all caps, like STRAẞE (street), you need a capital shape. This is why it was introduced in 2016.
There's also ſ which used to be the long small S in German and that's how ß came to be ſ+s. And people argues that Eszet didn't need a capital letter because it's already based on a ligature only found in small letters.
@@gamermapper it’s actually a ligature of sz. More accurately, of ſz, and more accurate still of ſʒ. Strictly speaking, the ezh (which I used) and the variant of Z used back then are different letters, but ezh looks more like the tailed Z than “Z with hook”, which’s recommended by Unicode.
As a Arabic and Russian speaker the letters are so damn awesome cuz of the pronunciation, knowing these two languages I can pronounce any letter in the galaxy but ы and ح hit different
Actually, they aren’t! Besides, it is a fact that Dutch and English + Scottish dialect & Norwegian are the prettiest languages on Earth - and it’s only the Germanic languages and most Latin languages and Celtic languages and a few other languages that are pretty! Also, the hard G in Dutch and the TH sounds in English don’t sound good, actually - all should use the soft G and the soft R or the Americanized R in Dutch, and in all other languages, and a normal D and a normal T and a soft RH sound should be used instead of the TH sounds!
Anwy, some of the prettiest letters are the X / x and the N / n and V / v and A / a and F / f and the Norwegian letters Æ / æ and Ø / ø and E / e and the H / h and the Q / q and, the Runes and most Russian letters and most ancient letters coming from Runes look cool! I like all the letters of the Latin alphabet, but X and V and N are definitely 3 of the best-looking letters and sounds! It makes sense that Dutch sounds so great, as it has so many words with V and W and many words with E / EE letters / sounds in them and H / G sounds (technically, the soft G in Dutch sounds close to an H sound, so one might just pronounce it as an H) and lots of other pretty-sounding letters like N / L / D etc and many words with perfect letter combinations like ver / wer / ven / wen / van etc!

I'm Russian learning arabic and wanted to say that Russian letter "ы" is a similar sound to Arabic "i" after emphatic Arabic letters like ط لطيفة for example

(2:10) The Polish Ł was used for a variant of the L sound, a "dark L", a velarised L, which in IPA is ɫ, which is a lowercase L with a tilde across. But the sound has shifted to what in IPA now is w, which is the same sound as the English W. But Ł is still related to L, like how "mały" inflects to "mali", so having it still be Ł and not W helps, especially since Polish already uses W for what in IPA is v, the same sound as English V. I do still think that, for when Polish words are imported to English, all Ł should be replaced with W. That is if you're not going to write the line across. For example the word "złoty" (the currency) would be written in English as "zwoty" not "zloty".
Same happened in Brazilian Portuguese. The name of that country is pronounced /braziw/ in local dialect with the 'w' sound at the end. And even in English you can find such thing. Ex. in Cockney the word 'bell' is pronounced /bew/
@@weegie3343 Well, you can Anglicise Łukasz to Lucas, if that is okay with that person, otherwise Wukash is a close English approximation. But best is to stick to Łukasz.
As native Russian speaker have to admit you nailed the letters Ш and Щ 👏 And Ы is definitely the hardest sound in Russian. And as a person who lives now in Netherlands and learns Dutch I can say that Dutch G is very funny and sounds so soft, I just looove it.
@@thechosenone7400 щ is more like sche but if you don’t pronounce each letter individually. Anything else is quite close to how it’s actually sound in Russian
7:21 "ayn" makes me feel betrayed ITS NOT "AYN" ITS... idk how to spell it but at the beginning there is sort of a grunting sound like "eughayn" idk man
As to the Polish “Ł”, I think it’s a very nice expedient to preserve the etymology of a word while suggesting a different pronunciation. For example, French “chaud, haut, paume” would look much less alien to other Neo-Latin speakers if written with “ł”. Just look at their Italian counterparts: “caldo, alto, palmo”.
You should've also included the Czech Ř, it makes a sound that is like a mix between a trilled R and J in French, and it's sort of like what Ñ is to Spanish; being a unique letter to the Czech language.
ẞ is very often used in German, for example „Straße“ which means street or „Süßigkeiten“ which means candy, another example is „Heiß“ it means hot and „süß“ means sweet
@Sebot. It's just exactly the english w sound with no difference. And the articulation of the so called half vowel [w] is nearly the same like the vowel [u]. Try to pronounce [auaua] and you will get something like [awawa]
@Sebot. But in the standard language ł is always pronounced as [w]. You mean in some dialects it is still a velarized lateral l sound. That's true. But w is also a velarized sound.
@@Ana_Al-Akbar in Polish, “w” is pronounced /v/, just like in German. “Soft w” probably is a way to clarify that the softer-sounding /w/ sound is to be used.
As a Spanish: the caterpillar on the top of the ñ is the result of shorting the Latin "nn" by writing a little n over one single n. Soooo maybe that's the reason we don't consider it an accent. As a Spanish that knows other languages: the portuguese R can be pronounced as the English "h", as the English "r", as the Spanish "rr" and, between vowels, as the Spanish "r". Except for the last one, you can pronounce "porta" in three different ways just in Brazil depending on your region
" *the portuguese R can be pronounced as the English "h* " That's not entirely true. Brazilian english teachers say that but the sounds are not exactly the same. Although in southeast especially in São Paulo the sounds can be pretty close in other parts of Brazil they definitly aren't
@@lxportugal9343 Actually, people from where I am from (Ceará) do pronounce the rr sound as [h]. I don't know how widespread it is, but it is one of its possible pronounciations.
@@johnruan1928 The English "h" is slightly softer than the standard portuguese "R" at the beginning of words, they're phonetically different even though it's almost unnoticeable
The history of ñ becoming a letter of her own right is pretty interesting, actually. Most romance languages represent the ñ sound with a digraph (two letters together that make a sound they wouldn't do on their own) Portuguese has "nh" Catalan has "ny" Italian and French have "gn" (see the trend here?) Well, guess what Spanish used to have... It was "nn" Now then how do we go from a double n to a n with a caterpillar on it? Saving ink. Writers would use the ~ symbol to represent a letter that SHOULD be doubled, but it's not (you could see things like an R or an L with that thing on top). And so writers seemed to like the new "letter" they invented, and just kept it
Imagine if Spanish kept doing this with all letters, so replacing rr with r̃. _"El ter̃itorio peninsular comparte fronteras ter̃estres con Francia y con Andor̃a al norte, con Portugal al oeste y con Gibraltar al sur. En sus ter̃itorios africanos, comparte fronteras ter̃estres y marítimas con Mar̃uecos."_
4:03 if you were looking, ツ is the katakana "tsu" (ts as in the ending of "ba dum tsss", and an "ooh" at the end) and シ is the katakana "shi" (pronounced like the english word "she".) there is one word i know that combines both, and it's 「シャツ」(shatsu / shirt)
1:31 Ğ is better (Btw, for us before we learn English, it feels like "ı" is the real letter and "i" is a variation of it because there are multiple examples of variations of letters that just add dots to the original, like "o" and "ö" or "u" and "ü".) Thanks for 31 likes everyone 🥺
@@WaterMelonian You mean among any of those? I am also learning German and I understand if you can't tell apart e and ä because i also can't tell them apart by just hearing. I can tall apart o, ö, u and ü but that's probably because I have them in my lang as well.

ツandシ are the Japanese characters for the sounds “tsu” and “shi” but this is just the katakana versions. The hiragana ones look like つandし (tsu and shi). For anyone till confused, hiragana and katakana are used very often in the same language along with kanji characters which are the big detailed symbols that are difficult to memorize. You can also have all three types in one sentence.
to be more accurate: 漢字(Kanji) is used for all kinds of words like nouns, verbs or adjectives. ひらがな(Hiragana) is used for grammar stuff and sometimes as an addition for Kanji words. カタカナ(Katakana) is used for words which originates form other languages (mostly from the Englisch language)
@@RetroGamer99999 It's also interesting to note that certain symbols take on smaller forms before long consonants, producing a pause between syllables (and as a means to further emphasize the consonant), and long vowels can be spelled with a dash after the symbol using the initial vowel sound, as a means to stress that vowel sound.

So, the letter ツ and シ are sometimes confusing even for the Japanese people (including myself) Basically ツ makes "tsu" sound, as in tsunami シ makes “shi” sound, as in sheet The only way to distinguish them is to see if the 2 lines in the letters are kind of vertical or horizontal 😂😢 So… if someone sucks at writing them, there’s no way possible to see the difference but to see it by the context or something
One way to make it distinct is knowing the correct stroke order of shi tsu so and n, the forms that didn't make a single stroke like there are variations of さきゆetc the stroke where it's not continuous are usually used by old people but it all come down to printed\digital form vs handwritten form which fine cuz there are more font and style like sousho oracle bone inscription, mincho, gothic , etc jpstackexchange has some a link to some of these styles
ツ kinda like upper case i and lower case L in latin alphabet, especially in sans-serif fonts. Or like 1 and l in serif fonts (which had the same stroke on ancient typewriters) or american number handwriting style. IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlI シ I love it when I get them in autogenerated passwords sent by sms. context does not help. you're not alone.

Btw, as a Portuguese, that's not really how the R works (in Portugal Portuguese) When the r is in the middle or in the end of the sentences, it produces the same sound as in Shark (Example: Ar, Comer, Testar) When it's in the start, between a vowel and a consonant or in the form of rr, it makes the sound ʁ. (Example: Rádio, Palrar, Carro) EDIT: just realized that in Brazilian Portuguese, instead of ʁ they make the sound h, so you're right. Not sure about African Portuguese though.
The R in the middle or in the end of sentences doesn't make the same sound as Shark, unless you're saying it with a portuguese, spanish, italian, arab or indian accent. It's actually closer to the T in words like atom and alligator (american accent)

There's a fun fact about cyrillic "K" compared to latin "K". Typography wise they have different anatomies. And if you're creating a typeface, you could get into trouble with seasoned typographers for not knowing this : )
Also in handwriting a lot of cyrillic letters don't look like there machine typed versions. For example "д" can be written as "g" or a horizontally mirrored "6", and as a "D" when capitalised

@@arealnowhereman8255 oh neat ! Basque would have looked a bit different with these letters, but the current orthography is convenient enough

Ы - is actually as easy one, it substitutes И - the equivalent of I in English, but adds more "hardness".

About the ß, this is actually extremely interesting:
The only easy part about German is its spelling. You say what you read and you write what you hear. There are some rules, notably:
1. A double consonant (same consonant written twice) makes the preceding vowel short.
2. An s written on its own is a voiced ("soft") s, like in English "hazard" [z], a double ss makes a voiceles ("hard") s, like in English "pasta" [s].
Now, you can maybe already see a problem: what if you want to write a word with a long vowel, but with a sharp s afterwards? For a long vowel, you'd write only one s afterwards, but for a sharp s, you need two. So this is how this wonderful character was born: it makes the sharp s sound, but counts as only one letter, allowing the preceding vowel to become long.
Example:
Masse (the mass), short a, sharp s [masə].
Maße (the measures), long a, sharp s [maːsə].
Historic trivia:
Historically, people avoided the problem by writing sz (no double s, so allows for long vowel, but indicates sharp s sound). This is why it's called "esszett" (s z, literally). The historic s shape was like an f without the crossbar, if you combine that with a z, you get the historically accurate ß shape, nowadays we usually refer to the combination of the long s and an s.
Even more trivia: a few years ago, a wonderful NEW LETTER was introduced to German spelling: the capital ß: ẞ. For a long time, people argued this was not necessary, as an ß only ever occurs in the middle of words, never at the beginning, and is thus never written in capital form. But if you write a word in all caps, like STRAẞE (street), you need a capital shape. This is why it was introduced in 2016.
There's also ſ which used to be the long small S in German and that's how ß came to be ſ+s. And people argues that Eszet didn't need a capital letter because it's already based on a ligature only found in small letters.
@@gamermapper did you read my comment? I mentioned these things already specifically, more towards the end ;)
ẞß
@@gamermapper it’s actually a ligature of sz. More accurately, of ſz, and more accurate still of ſʒ. Strictly speaking, the ezh (which I used) and the variant of Z used back then are different letters, but ezh looks more like the tailed Z than “Z with hook”, which’s recommended by Unicode.

Actually, they aren’t! Besides, it is a fact that Dutch and English + Scottish dialect & Norwegian are the prettiest languages on Earth - and it’s only the Germanic languages and most Latin languages and Celtic languages and a few other languages that are pretty! Also, the hard G in Dutch and the TH sounds in English don’t sound good, actually - all should use the soft G and the soft R or the Americanized R in Dutch, and in all other languages, and a normal D and a normal T and a soft RH sound should be used instead of the TH sounds!
Anwy, some of the prettiest letters are the X / x and the N / n and V / v and A / a and F / f and the Norwegian letters Æ / æ and Ø / ø and E / e and the H / h and the Q / q and, the Runes and most Russian letters and most ancient letters coming from Runes look cool! I like all the letters of the Latin alphabet, but X and V and N are definitely 3 of the best-looking letters and sounds! It makes sense that Dutch sounds so great, as it has so many words with V and W and many words with E / EE letters / sounds in them and H / G sounds (technically, the soft G in Dutch sounds close to an H sound, so one might just pronounce it as an H) and lots of other pretty-sounding letters like N / L / D etc and many words with perfect letter combinations like ver / wer / ven / wen / van etc!

I'm Russian learning arabic and wanted to say that Russian letter "ы" is a similar sound to Arabic "i" after emphatic Arabic letters like ط
لطيفة for example
Now I think I know how to pronounce it correctly. It doesn't seem as hard as he made it look. At least for me as a native Arabic speaker. That's such a good example.
(2:10) The Polish Ł was used for a variant of the L sound, a "dark L", a velarised L, which in IPA is ɫ, which is a lowercase L with a tilde across. But the sound has shifted to what in IPA now is w, which is the same sound as the English W. But Ł is still related to L, like how "mały" inflects to "mali", so having it still be Ł and not W helps, especially since Polish already uses W for what in IPA is v, the same sound as English V.
I do still think that, for when Polish words are imported to English, all Ł should be replaced with W. That is if you're not going to write the line across. For example the word "złoty" (the currency) would be written in English as "zwoty" not "zloty".
I try to popularize that when talking in other languages as well, never replace Ł with vanilla L

As to the Polish “Ł”, I think it’s a very nice expedient to preserve the etymology of a word while suggesting a different pronunciation.
For example, French “chaud, haut, paume” would look much less alien to other Neo-Latin speakers if written with “ł”. Just look at their Italian counterparts: “caldo, alto, palmo”.
You should've also included the Czech Ř, it makes a sound that is like a mix between a trilled R and J in French, and it's sort of like what Ñ is to Spanish; being a unique letter to the Czech language.
Ř exists in Upper Sorbian too but doesn't have the sound sadly. It's like the Polish RZ.
I learned how to pronounce ř if for no other reason than to flex on music majors any time Dvořak is mentioned. It's pretty fun to pronounce, too
It makes the ж sound, no cap
its not unique to Czech
@@HeroManNick132Ř is the beautiful letter, can i see
Ř= Rž or Rš, but in Polish is Rz or Rž
ẞ is very often used in German, for example „Straße“ which means street or „Süßigkeiten“ which means candy, another example is „Heiß“ it means hot and „süß“ means sweet
As a polish person we understand that the "Łł" is confusing but to remember how to pronounce it is like a soft "W"
Why like a "soft" w? It is just like the english w.
@Sebot. It's just exactly the english w sound with no difference. And the articulation of the so called half vowel [w] is nearly the same like the vowel [u].
Try to pronounce [auaua]
and you will get something like [awawa]
@Sebot. But in the standard language ł is always pronounced as [w]. You mean in some dialects it is still a velarized lateral l sound. That's true. But w is also a velarized sound.
@@Ana_Al-Akbar in Polish, “w” is pronounced /v/, just like in German. “Soft w” probably is a way to clarify that the softer-sounding /w/ sound is to be used.

7:08 The Ь sound becomes by the spanish h
i like how he personally goes out of his way to use the wrong, but technically true flag for each language.
As a Spanish: the caterpillar on the top of the ñ is the result of shorting the Latin "nn" by writing a little n over one single n. Soooo maybe that's the reason we don't consider it an accent.
As a Spanish that knows other languages: the portuguese R can be pronounced as the English "h", as the English "r", as the Spanish "rr" and, between vowels, as the Spanish "r". Except for the last one, you can pronounce "porta" in three different ways just in Brazil depending on your region
" *the portuguese R can be pronounced as the English "h* "
That's not entirely true. Brazilian english teachers say that but the sounds are not exactly the same.
Although in southeast especially in São Paulo the sounds can be pretty close in other parts of Brazil they definitly aren't
@@lxportugal9343 Actually, people from where I am from (Ceará) do pronounce the rr sound as [h]. I don't know how widespread it is, but it is one of its possible pronounciations.
@@johnruan1928 Maybe in Portugal is more like the French r?? I feel it stronger, but Idk
@@johnruan1928 The English "h" is slightly softer than the standard portuguese "R" at the beginning of words, they're phonetically different even though it's almost unnoticeable
@@lxportugal9343 That's true and we even have a "R aspirado" that appears at the end of words like verbs in infinitive "amar, comer, dormir"
The history of ñ becoming a letter of her own right is pretty interesting, actually.
Most romance languages represent the ñ sound with a digraph (two letters together that make a sound they wouldn't do on their own)
Portuguese has "nh"
Catalan has "ny"
Italian and French have "gn"
(see the trend here?)
Well, guess what Spanish used to have...
It was "nn"
Now then how do we go from a double n to a n with a caterpillar on it?
Saving ink.
Writers would use the ~ symbol to represent a letter that SHOULD be doubled, but it's not (you could see things like an R or an L with that thing on top). And so writers seemed to like the new "letter" they invented, and just kept it
Nice
French and Italian represent this sound with ‘gn’ not ‘ng’
@@tchaifei my bad, already corrected
Portuguese did a similar thing, but we ended up with ã and õ which are by far the weirdest sounds in Portuguese
Imagine if Spanish kept doing this with all letters, so replacing rr with r̃.
_"El ter̃itorio peninsular comparte fronteras ter̃estres con Francia y con Andor̃a al norte, con Portugal al oeste y con Gibraltar al sur. En sus ter̃itorios africanos, comparte fronteras ter̃estres y marítimas con Mar̃uecos."_
poles started gettin' L, ended up gettin W
4:03 if you were looking, ツ is the katakana "tsu" (ts as in the ending of "ba dum tsss", and an "ooh" at the end) and シ is the katakana "shi" (pronounced like the english word "she".) there is one word i know that combines both, and it's 「シャツ」(shatsu / shirt)
1:31 Ğ is better
(Btw, for us before we learn English, it feels like "ı" is the real letter and "i" is a variation of it because there are multiple examples of variations of letters that just add dots to the original, like "o" and "ö" or "u" and "ü".)

5:20 - In a very real sense, Chinese _does_ have an alphabet, in the sense that most characters consist of parts that exist in other characters as well. In other words, most characters are amalgamations of several characters, and in some cases they do have phonetic value! This character, for example, contains the characters month月, heart 心, horse 马, long 长 and others. (To clarify, 马 长are Simplified versions. I don’t have Traditional setup on my phone.)
馬 長 there you go
Traditional edition
"alphabet, in the sense that most characters consist of parts that exist in other characters as well"
That's not what the word "alphabet" means.
Oh wow any literature on this? I'd love to have a research on it ... Speaking the language for 30 years still have 0 idea about Chinese alphabet
@@augustzhang9697, I found some info to this effect, but unfortunately, RUclips doesn’t seem to let me include the URL here.
It’s not a true alphabet, no, but similar in the sense that most characters break down into smaller pieces, those pieces recur in most other characters as well, and in many cases, those pieces define, or at least strongly hint at, the character’s pronunciation.
@@augustzhang9697, I should clarify that I say this with respect to Mandarin pronunciation of Chinese characters. I’ve been studying Mandarin-Chinese as an on-going hobby for about 18 years, and mostly speak Mandarin at home (wife is from 哈尔滨). However, I know almost nothing about Cantonese, the Shanhai dialect, nor the other dialects.
That multiocular O reminds me of a cluster of frog eggs, with the dot in the middle being the developing tadpole! 😂
As an Egyptian, im happy you find Arabic such a beautiful language. Im also practicing to master speaking English! my accent sucks when it comes to talking with others, and im not the only one. since we don't have "p" in our language, the letter closest to it when it comes to pronunciation will be "ب", so when we say words like "party" we say it "barty" lmao

ツandシ are the Japanese characters for the sounds “tsu” and “shi” but this is just the katakana versions. The hiragana ones look like つandし (tsu and shi). For anyone till confused, hiragana and katakana are used very often in the same language along with kanji characters which are the big detailed symbols that are difficult to memorize. You can also have all three types in one sentence.
to be more accurate: 漢字(Kanji) is used for all kinds of words like nouns, verbs or adjectives. ひらがな(Hiragana) is used for grammar stuff and sometimes as an addition for Kanji words. カタカナ(Katakana) is used for words which originates form other languages (mostly from the Englisch language)
@@RetroGamer99999 It's also interesting to note that certain symbols take on smaller forms before long consonants, producing a pause between syllables (and as a means to further emphasize the consonant), and long vowels can be spelled with a dash after the symbol using the initial vowel sound, as a means to stress that vowel sound. (E.g., さっか- /sakkaa, which by following the romanji/pronounciation is soccer.)
Apologies for not being the greatest at sharing some of my lessons I've been working on, only just at 32% for beginner's level. 😅
@@Daelyah Roumaji, not romanji
@@crusaderACR no, it is Romaji/ローマ字.
@@atsukorichards1675 ローマ字 is not romaji. That horizontal line ー signals a long vowel, meaning it lasts twice as long as the a in ma or the i in ji
it depends how you want to signal long vowels, but you MUST ALWAYS show your long vowels. There's no excuse. Zero.
The difference between grandmother (obaasan) and aunt (obasan) is just the long vowel. In Japan saying romaji is straight up a different word altogether.
For long vowels, the official way to do it is with a macron, so rōmaji, or be lazy and add a u to elongate an o, like the Japanese do with hiragana (toukyou, etc.)
"People often says Danish sounds like a swedish spoken with a potato in your mouth" had me laughing 😂😅
*edit: 162 likes?!
It's funny yes, but this is actually a very common saying lol
I always thought it sounds like a drunk German trying to speak Norwegian.
At this point lets just say that Danish dosen't even sound human
@@sirpixel7945 You just realised?! Nothing from Denmark is normal! just take potato for an example, in danish its ´´kartoffel´´ what the hell is that monstrosity?!
But it´s totally true. Danish and even some southern swedish dialects sound like you have some actual disabililty in your mouth
So, the letter ツ and シ are sometimes confusing even for the Japanese people (including myself)
Basically ツ makes "tsu" sound, as in tsunami
シ makes “shi” sound, as in sheet
The only way to distinguish them is to see if the 2 lines in the letters are kind of vertical or horizontal 😂😢
So… if someone sucks at writing them, there’s no way possible to see the difference but to see it by the context or something
One way to make it distinct is knowing the correct stroke order of shi tsu so and n, the forms that didn't make a single stroke like there are variations of さきゆetc the stroke where it's not continuous are usually used by old people but it all come down to printed\digital form vs handwritten form which fine cuz there are more font and style like sousho oracle bone inscription, mincho, gothic , etc jpstackexchange has some a link to some of these styles
ツ kinda like upper case i and lower case L in latin alphabet, especially in sans-serif fonts. Or like 1 and l in serif fonts (which had the same stroke on ancient typewriters) or american number handwriting style. IlIlIlIlIlIlIlIlI シ I love it when I get them in autogenerated passwords sent by sms. context does not help. you're not alone.
So they make the suìiiii sound
the real confusing part of katakana is how the heck do you tell this small smiley face is not a syllable, but a doubler. like subscript in latin is super obvious in comparison.

Mozambique 🇲🇿
Yea lol
Btw, as a Portuguese, that's not really how the R works (in Portugal Portuguese)
When the r is in the middle or in the end of the sentences, it produces the same sound as in Shark (Example: Ar, Comer, Testar)
When it's in the start, between a vowel and a consonant or in the form of rr, it makes the sound ʁ. (Example: Rádio, Palrar, Carro)
EDIT: just realized that in Brazilian Portuguese, instead of ʁ they make the sound h, so you're right. Not sure about African Portuguese though.
The R in the middle or in the end of sentences doesn't make the same sound as Shark, unless you're saying it with a portuguese, spanish, italian, arab or indian accent. It's actually closer to the T in words like atom and alligator (american accent)
