Holy stuff. "Ну, погоди!" or, in non-Russian's terms, "Stop Right There, Criminal Scum!". I thought that it went into oblivion (no pun intended) even in post-SU area. Random encounters occur, though. Anyway, T7, know that Kauf approves. --DAH BUY000R! (wall | crimes)

Oh my dear Kauf, like thou didst not intend yonder pun :P

And Max, thanks for the cartooon but I gave up on Russian quite a while ago cuz of the palatalization & vowel reductions (sorry for my plebian phonetic skills, comrade russkij).

Marek Szymonski (talk) 04:54, December 27, 2015 (UTC)

So instead you go to Polish: the most impossible to pronounce thing after Czech and Nuxálk??? (btw, Nuxálk has this word: xłp̓x̣ʷłtłpłłskʷc̓, [xɬpʼχʷɬtʰɬpʰɬːskʷʰt͡sʼ]). Did you give up Polish actually?

Maxseptillion77 (talk) 17:35, December 27, 2015 (UTC)

Nope. Call me crazy, but I prefer Polish phonology. The consonant clusters are wacky for sure (like czczi [t͜ʂt͜ɕi]) but I prefer it since it's much more straightforward since you don't have to worry about where a word's accent is placed & all vowels (well, except ę & ą) have virtually the same quality in any position, and I overall find pronouncing those unholy clusters a lot easier than trying to pronounce [ʲ].

Also, I'm not sure I'd put Polish and Czech on the same list as Nuxálk. At least (most) Polish and Czech syllables have vowels :O

Marek Szymonski (talk) 17:47, December 27, 2015 (UTC)

XD I get that with Nuxálk: I assure you that the antichrist learned Nuxálk as his first second language. Tho, Czech does have that godforsaken ř, [r̝]. Like, dafuq. I with that Czech would use more affricates or just palatalize like Russian because it's hard to use my hard palate so much; actually, I just hate [c] and [ɟ] as consonants o3o.

Get lost, outlanders. You don't understand anything about Slavic languages. They're at least 100 times worse than you think. --DAH BUY000R! (wall | crimes)

It's actually lies
