Poor monolinguals
I’m choosing to take this as a really clever etymology joke
Who the fuck decided rendezvous would be pronounced like that?
It’d be spelled 𐑮𐑪𐑯𐑛𐑱𐑝𐑵 in Shavian script English, is that better?
It’s not our fault French was made wrong.
One of my multilingual friends called English the mixed playdoh version of French and German.
I hate it honestly. The french spent centuries ruling England and messing up our language just for the rest of the world to make fun of us for it as if it’s our fault.
“Wah, I’m the British, and I’m upset about being colonized” that’s what you sound like
It’s spelt colonised
I would pronounce that “colon-iced”
I’m american but the romans and french taught them how to do it.
And if anyone calls me british ever again there will be consequences
Nice try, but if you were really american, you’d spell it conzequences.
Nice try Mr. Italiano.

Don’t forget the ancient Latin that a bunch of scholars pulled in during the 1600s because the French descendants weren’t fancy enough.
Hahaha, that’s pretty good!
It is at least 3 languages in a trenchcoat.
it is your fault (collective, not individual) you didn’t change the spelling
rendez-vous’s pronounciation is perfectly regular in french

Careful, Col. Hans Landa might notice the accent.
Quick! Delete this before the Trump admin declares that the existence of loanwords is a war on the American Language®
I would love to see how this shook out when the British start getting possessive about their language in petty retribution. US adopts “hick hoodrat” as its first language?

I thought monolingual meant someone who only licks one other person, as opposed to polylingual where someone licks multiple other people
I am polylingual 💖
French is an abomination of a language.
Moi j’aime bien.

fuck all french origin words in english
they all behave counter to the rest of english logic
Don’t even get me started on Colonel.
I always thought colonel would be pronounced colonel, but it’s colonel instead!
Anyone who makes fun of eastern Asian languages for not differentiating between L and R has never compared romance languages.
Which romance languages, at that! They’re all different! Haha
you mean “kornul”?

Mongoloid would have been funnier.
