Is he pronouncing e in river as [ɛ] not [ə] ? Or it's [ɚ]?

>>German becomes the new language of the EU

Yes, 'went' is the past tense, but the perfect tense require the participle 'gone'.

*requires, fuck's sake.

You are deluded

Thats an American saying, the correct English saying is "i couldn't care less"

>your / you're
Why do native speakers (and only them) confuse them so often?

I got you're point man.

Because native speakers learn by listening (and these two words are identically pronounced), whereas non-native speakers generally learn by reading.

Yep, aware of that.
It's incorrect, but "I could care less" sounds kinda cute, and it kinda sounds like something a tsundere would say.
Still don't understand how they could mix these two up, though.

Looks legit, thanks.

I think they're doing it ironically

>identically pronounced
Are they really? Have I been doing it wrong by saying "yoor" and "yooar"?

Higher chance Europeans are speaking Ching chong than German language desu
The most realistic one is French and yet it's still unrealistic

Yes, completely identical: 'yor'.

>Because native speakers learn by listening
So fucking what... I am still able to write correct German, which is my native language. Lame excuse of all these retards who never went to school or grew up in a shithole like Murrica.

do not listen to the other user, many people pronounce 'your' and 'you're' differently strictly because of the 'are' in 'you're'. Pronouncing them the same however is fine, it saves you a bit of trouble.

Yeah, I guess the context could carry it, so it wouldn't be a problem.

The worst offense is “could of”
How the fuck would that make sense

Perhaps, Arabic

You're the first Murrican I see who's not defending this.
>rare

Is using double contractions in formal writing a faux pas?
I'm trying to learn and understand the subtleties in the English language.

This shit is only present in native speakers because they aren't taught the language like we are.

They learn the language from birth, by listening to it and speaking it, not by reading books and learning grammar and so.
It's not like 4 or 5 year old kids have English lessons at kindergarten.

Just like us Spanish speakers. We tend to omit using accents on words because we're too lazy or don't give a shit. But someone who learned Spanish as second language probably follows the grammar and punctuation rules 100%

Kinda hate that that's a thing.
Imagine learning a language and being made fun of for being too "proper" and "literary" when you finally get around to talking with natives. You're not going to fit in, you're going to sound like a pompous smart-arse.

You must be braindead if you really think this. Or maybe it's because you're just Mexican, not sure.
Anyone growing up in Germany HAS TO learn German at school and take mandatory German classes for their entire school career. You're actively learning German from grade one till six and the remaining years (depending on which school you're going to) are all about literature. The only people who can't properly speak or write German are either retards or dyslexic people.

I said that 4 and 5 year old kids don't learn English at that age, you retard.
I wasn't taking Spanish lessons until I was in primary school, yet I still spoke the language.

It's simply custom from native speakers to speak their language the way they learned it.
Even after going through school and learning all about their own language, they still go like "how r u?" when chatting on the internet.
It's the native language laziness.
Not a single Spanish speaker on the Internet bothers to use ¿ or ¡ when asking a question or exclaiming something unless he's some ultra pompous fag trying to act all refined and sophisticated

It's probably just because they're in the spotlight, being today's lingua franca and all. Mistakes that native speakers make are almost always different than the ones language learners make, is right. I've read many horrendous French written by native speakers too. Granted, their grammar is a little more complex and they have a lot more homophones, but how hard can it be to remember to use "a" when it's from the verb "avoir" and "à" when it's literally anything else? That shit really bothers me.

so you're implying that all these mistakes are only made by 4 year olds?
nobody is complaining about "how r u", read again, gringo...

>most realistic one is French
Doubt. It's definitely German, both for business reasons, and because German speakers are the most numerous.
No insult to the French, but France is irrelevant.

French language is irrelevant*

I appreciate that Bulgarians like the German language
