Is there any linguistic term or googleable term for languages that the spoken form is the same/similar to the written/formal form?

What languages are similar in both written and spoken form?

I've heard that many south asian languages are very dissimilar so you cannot really the learn the spoken language while not in the respective country. Another obvious example is Arabic.

Not sure it has a term. I guess just the opposite of diglossia?

I think you're looking for orthographic depth or phonemic orthography.

I am glad it is dead.
I used to dislike it.
There’s nothing you can do.
Dying is typically disadvantageous to people.
Even if it was nice out, I still wouldn’t have gone.
You are saying that you personally saw it raining. In other words, you literally saw water fall from the sky.

Now that we are talking about it, let’s decide on when we are going.

[The eagle and the sow]

An eagle built a nest on a tree, and hatched out some eaglets. And a wild sow brought her litter under the tree. The eagle used to fly off after her prey, and bring it back to her young. And the sow rooted around the tree and hunted in the woods, and when night came she would bring her young something to eat. And the eagle and the sow lived in neighborly fashion. And a grimalkin laid her plans to destroy the eaglets and the little sucking pigs. She went to the eagle, and said: "Eagle, you had better not fly very far away. Beware of the sow; she is planning an evil design. She is going to undermine the roots of the tree. You see she is rooting all the time." Then the grimalkin went to the sow and said: "Sow, you have not a good neighbor Last evening I heard the eagle saying to her eaglets: 'my dear little eaglets, I am going to treat you to a nice little pig. Just as soon as the sow is gone, I will bring you a little young suckling pig.'" From that time the eagle ceased to fly out after prey, and the sow did not go any more into the forest. The eaglets and the young pigs perished of starvation, and grimalkin feasted on them.

>tfw too embarrassed to talk with native speakers

fault explanations:

>Le
you pronounced the "e" like you'd say é, instead you gotta pronounce "œuf", neuf etc..

>Nord-Est
Here, you accentued the "d". In that case, you gotta basically say "Norest"

>emprunte
you pronounced "u" like in "ou". Instead, in that case you gotta prounouce "u" like in "hein", "vin", "commun" etc...

>s'effectuant
this is where french is getting difficult, because same letters have different way to be pronouced. same fault as previous, but now you pronounce "u" like in "du", "muet" (german equivalent would be ü)… Be careful or the little almost "r" sound i heard between u and a :)

>mers
you accentued the s. Never accentuate a s when it is used for a plural form of a word. Also the liaison is pretty much difficult to master, even for natives french speakers. In that case, the closest way to pronounce "Mers artiques" would be "Merzartique"

>plus
One of the biggest assholes in French language. Theres TWO way to pronounce that Fucking piece of shit word:
If it's used to express the need to add more, you accentuate the "s".
If It it's used as the translation of "no more" or as a way to introduce a comparative like "shortest", "longest" etc... you Don't pronounce the "s". So it that case, "Plus court" means "Shortest" so you Don't pronounce the s.
Seriously, fuck this word lol.

>Asie
s. Again, i know. As a matter of fact, s like a lot of letters as itself various way to be pronounced. either "s" like in "Spain" or "z" like in Zanzibar. In that case you pronounce s like z.

>1648
Pronounced as "Mil-ssi-ssen-ka-rantuit". don't accuentuate the x...

Alright lads, I'm in the market for a dead language. My goal isn't to have a new language to actually use. I just want to learn something fun and challenging. Also, picking a dead language is more intertwined with history, and I'm a big history nerd so I think it'll be more fun for me to learn something like Latin instead of Italian.

I think I've about got my choices narrowed down. It's between Old Norse, Old English, Latin, and Gothic. Latin will for sure be the easiest to find learning materials on, and Gothic will probably be the hardest. Latin will also be the easiest in terms of alphabet, because if I learn one of the 3 Germanic languages, then I'm 100% going to use the runic alphabet instead of the Latin alphabet.

Anyone currently learning one of these languages who can clue me in on how hard they are? I'm not sure which I'm gonna go for yet, but I'm leaning towards Latin just because there's going to be an ample amount of resources available. But if someone knows of some solid resources for learning Gothic, Old Norse, or Old English, then I'd totally be down to check it out.
