Person, who made this meme, should be tortured til he learns how to recognise "be" and "bee" only by voice.

English has too many sounds for a language that contains only 26 letters and several dialects where people just eat half of the words. Honestly, i wouldn't mind to have maybe 3-4 new letters to just not have two different learning curves: one for reading and another one for speaking

No, what we need is stopping thief letters like c, q, and x

Don't forget those silent letters who completely fuck everything up when you're trying to learn the word.

Pretty sure writing in English is famous for being gorgeous, with its history of borrowing words from every other language you have the widest range of options to write the best poetry and prose possible.

Now speaking English, that shit's for losers.

I can't stop laughing at the russian one.

First sentence you learn in Duo in russian: "Me in metro"

Nein, stell dir vor eine Jungfrau sprechen. Sie trägt eine Dirndl und trinkt vier Bier und will dich kennenlernen. Oder einer freundlich Mann. Er will Videospiele sprechen in der Stadtpark. Meiner Großonkel was einer freundlicher Künstler.
