Why is Japanese so inefficient?
Why is Japanese so inefficient?

Do you have the rates of other languages?
Noah Richardson
Why do weebs exist? Seriously. I guess some of their history is cool. But why? Why do people love their shit sooooo fucking much? Mental illness
Daniel Watson
YEAAAAAAAA KILL EM AAAALLLLLL
Carson Lee
Is the information rate measured in shitty studies per second?
Dylan Thompson
>Mental illness
Yet here you are, on the most populous "weeb" website on the English language sphere of teh interwebz.
Caleb Edwards
it's word to meaning ratio, japanese has a lot of preposition, ie, wasteful words
Aiden Lewis
Most languages have a lot of "waste", depending on how you look at it. The "information rate" in the op is effectively meaningless in the real world, where language exists and evolves.
Adam Miller
why are you complaining about weebs in anime forum?
Henry Gray
the life isn't only for being efficient
Jayden Hughes
If a man spends all his time rolling in shit while berating the pigs, how would you describe his mental outlook?
Henry Morris
In fact: I don't know if they even take into account that in Japanese you can omit reduntant info.
Jonathan Gray
well, that's why they speak so fast
Nolan Gutierrez
fact: Japanese is the most effcient language in the world
Cooper Johnson
Reminder that languages such as Spanish and Japanese are spoken faster than English, so the information/syllable ratio evens out: You may say more information per word in English but is read and spoken more slowly than Japanese and Spanish
Gabriel Cruz
>well, that's why they speak so fast
what?????
Easton Edwards
I disctintively remember this study. It took into account 尊敬語。Yeah, top lel.
Ayden Russell
This isn't really a weeb site anymore. Most come here for /b/, Jow Forums or, unfortunately, Jow Forums
Juan Peterson
Everyday, I feel everything of Japan is inefficient.
Charles Miller
>the form that is meant to be long as fuck
If anything Japanese shouldn't be last on the list. I find it often quicker to say stuff in Japanese than I would have in English
Aiden Myers
>This isn't really a weeb site anymore.
It really is.
>Most come here for /b/, Jow Forums or, unfortunately, Jow Forums
/b/ is no longer relevant, Jow Forums is even less relevant. Jow Forums is merely a pimple which emerged recently and is largely rejected by the culture of the rest of the site.
Sometimes studies are conducted by people who don't understand the range of languages as much as they perhaps ought in order to study them. Linguists know language well, just not always the context of specific languages in real world usage.
William Jenkins
It's higher context, so you use less words. This evens out the information rate.
Alexander Sanders
No you can read or speak English pretty fast.
Carson Williams
Because japs always end their sentence with de cyka.
Jack Murphy
>It really is.
It's not. It stopped being a week site quite sometime ago. /A/ stopped pulling it's old numbers in its prime.
Matthew Johnson
Not the point.
Liam Carter
information per character
1. Chinese
2. Japanese
3. Korean
Brandon Gomez
>It's not.
It really is.
>/A/
Get out.
Jayden Hall
Oh yeah like jp is any better. Jow Forums gradually shifted from week stuff over time just like a neighborhood undergoing gentrification. There are some of the old residents who remain but the change is blatantly there.
Kayden Price

Get out.
