And I bet you will learn Acehnese quickly if you heard my voice because the words on Acehnese is read and pronouce as it written 😁 different from English. Maybe because there's so many words were adapted from other language.
We said doorsmeer (dorsmir in aceh) for carwash
Dobi/binatu for laundry service. When we said jak raon-raon it does sound like round which mean going for a walk around the place. We also adopt Free as Pre for something you got for free or pakansi for vacation.
See.. it's easy. And I think I need to learn some word in finnish or elvish too.. who knows I can find another similar words in Acehnese too. Because the French, Dutchs, portuguesse, turkey, arab, indian also been in Aceh in the 13-19th century when there's a great kingdom with white pepper as the main commodity to trade.
Thank you so much @viking-ventures😉 this conversation really enlight me about languages and you.
Yes, English has adopted so many words from other languages... it's not a very pure language, but a blend of many. Even at its roots we have Latin, but also German, but also Greek! There's also a lot of Old Norse in it... So, from the very beginning it's complicated.
A great Finnish word to learn is: kissa which means cat. In Finnish, the accent is always at the beginning and goes gentler throughout the word. For Finnish culture, the movie Jade Warrior is very interesting as it's in Finnish and Mandarin and ties in the national epic, the Kalevala to ancient China! It also uses multiple lives to achieve its plot - a fascinating film!

I will try to remember. :-)
I occasionally talk about some of the differences between American English and British English which can be fascinating. A few weeks ago, I did a post about the word "football" versus "soccer" etc. It's not as obvious as Brits like to think, lol.
Anyway, it's been lovely chatting with you. Be sure to hit me up on Discord. viking-ventures #2883
