@linguacelta I'll try to focus on pronunciation from IPA transcriptions. Maybe that won't trip me as much.

Well... I speak Brazilian Portuguese. I shouldn't be bad mouthing other languages for being irregular when they're actually not when my language's orthography is awfully irregular😅😅😅.

(not as much as English though, English is hell)

@linguacelta Oh, that makes a lot of sense.

I remember having watched a video a while ago explaining the meaning of the name of that Welsh town with a long name.

When the person pronounced the name slowly I remember thinking that it wasn't actually hard to read. It just was long and had a few uncommon phonemes, but overall I could easily read it once I knew which phonemes each letter represented.

Hey @linguacelta , you probably know about this.

My impression trying to learn Irish and correlating the written words with the sound they make is that it should have went lots of sound changes since the orthography crystalized.

Is this true? I wonder if Welsh is like this too, or if it's easier to learn.

@anna Eu acho muito engraçado esse tipo de coisa. Os idiomas tentando fazer sentido de palavras de outros idiomas.

Perco mais tempo que eu devia vendo essas coisas😂😂😂
