I have to step in for my unofficial brothers here: French might leave a few letters out when pronouncing, but it is in itself consistent, and once you know hoe the language works, its easy to predict how a word is spelled. Granted, that males it more difficult to learn compared to Spanish or Italian. English on the other hand is a complete clusterfuck of spelling and pronounciation, and I hate that I have to use this language
As someone who is Dyslexic I do have some issues the way words are spelt to how they are pronounced and some overlapping/contradictory rules
But which one of your savages pronounce Wr as Ui?
This breaks my brain more than usual

Rilli guud post.
Pour l’anglais, c’est surtout de la faute du français (et de ce sacré Guillaume !)… Désolé, pas désolé.
I can’t imagine writing as we speak like some illiterate peasant. Disgusting.
“La biblioteca”, wtf. It’s a theta, not a tau. Can’t you have some respect for Greek and Latin?
They never expect the 3 silent letters at the end of the word
J’avoue, parfois mes élèves mexicains galèrent
My wife is currently learning french and sometimes she asks me why do we pronounce words in a certain way rather than how it is spelled, like in Italian where we used to live. I’m like yes honey I know and I’m sorry, but I have no answer.
Imagine getting to make a contest out of spelling in your own language lol

Why did he reply in dutch?
French has a lot of rules, and tons of (regular) orthography that looks odd to outsiders… And that makes french be pronounced as it’s written.
What sound makes “ea” ?
English: yes
Steak (ei)
Speak (i)
Heart (a)
Earth (e)
Read (i again?)
Read (e, why?)
Clear (ia)
Pear (e)
Tea (i??)
True/Through/though/… 🥶
To be fair Julia’s sentence was pretty phonetic. Aside from the E in English and the silent W it’s written phonetically
Nice comeback by Ultra thicc.
Doesn’t Greek also work like Spanish and Italian?
Everybody pronounces the words as their written (more or less). It’s only the British and French who absolutely don’t.
A weird similarity between Barry and Pierre nobody talks about
Spanish being pronounced as it’s written is a hot take.
V = b
Ll = j
Only the god languages (Dutch, German) are consistent in their pronounciation.
