It’s true but if your first language isn’t English then you are practically living in the native English speakers world

What do you mean G

 

[InnerEarthMystic]

Ye Ye, it's the truth G.
Native English speakers have a horrible adaptability to pronunciation.

Honestly I think the best way for English speakers to learn a different language is to learn Mandarin first or a language with clear tone markers because it helps set up to learn pronunciation

Native English speakers have a horrible adaptability to pronunciation.

This applies to everyone that speaks one language though, latin people will have a hard time adapting to germanic languages, and slavic languages. Asians will have an even harder time adapting to them, there's not really any base that gives you an advantage apart from maybe latin, but even then the advantage is slight

If anything, being a native english speaker is the biggest advantage to have in the modern world because of it being the most internationally spoken language in the world

 

[kifykify]

Speaking English is better than speaking Brazilian, Polish, or French, at least

Plenty of Latin, Hispanic people can speak English without an accent
I don't know English people that can speak other languages without their accent being recognized immediately

 

[kifykify]

And what you mentioned about the advantage a native English speaker has, it doesn't contradict what I said

 

[Orka]

Plenty of Latin, Hispanic people can speak English without an accent

This is only if they were born and raised in a household that spoke english, otherwise they have a very hard time to adapt, and if they were born in those conditions then they are a native english speaker

 

[kifykify]

No, they don't have to be native speakers
Why do you think I'm mentioning it?

 

[Orka]

And what you mentioned about the advantage a native English speaker has, it doesn't contradict what I said

It doesn't, I'm just weighing the pros and cons

 

[Paradise]

ok

 

[kifykify]

It doesn't, I'm just weighing the pros and cons

Yeah G, it doesn't, but you said "if anything," there's no "but" there.

 

[kifykify]

I wouldn't correct you if we all had a lot of trouble with pronouncing other languages like native English speakers have

 

[Orka]

No, they don't have to be native speakers

You don't have backing for your point, latin and hispanic languages have little to do with english compared to other germanic languages, and personal experience isn't backing

Yeah G, it doesn't, but you said "if anything," there's no "but" there.

I said if anything because of the context of weighing pros and cons in my previous paragraph

 

[kifykify]

You don't have backing for your point, latin and hispanic languages have little to do with english compared to other germanic languages, and personal experience isn't backing

It would be really hard to find something backing my point, that's right

I said if anything because of the context of weighing pros and cons in my previous paragraph

You said "if anything" when the advantage Latin people have is about adapting to pronunciation, then with English you mentioned a way different advantage, not related to it
That's a "but"
