| NoTeefy | Well of course it does if you're learning that language but that's only one exception which you will need to take care of |
| NoTeefy | like in all languages^^ |
| NoTeefy | Like French only has two forms of articles, feminin and masculin (la, le | un/une) |
| NoTeefy | in German we have three. Masculin, Feminin and undefined (der/die/das | ein/eine/ein) |
| NoTeefy | Which is something that's really annoying when you try to learn German |
| NoTeefy | I could tell you countless of exception and weird rules you need to follow when speaking/writing German. It's one of the hardest languages to learn (on a international level) because of all that stuff |
| AndreofHazel | The one I'm familiar with is the cases, since we use 3 of them in Greek. |
| AndreofHazel | We no longer use Dative but it used to be part of Ancient Greek. |
| NoTeefy | I don't remember which university researched it but they came to the conclusion that Mandarin, German, Finnish and Arabic are the hardest languages to learn if you're not a native |
| NoTeefy | @AndreofHazel we still use Dative in German |
| AndreofHazel | I know, I used to study it when I was trying to learn German although I remember almost nothing by now. Ancient Greek used to have 5 cases, modern only have 4 since Dative is no longer included. |
| NoTeefy | Yeah I knew about that. What I also heard is that the Spanish language has like 12 different forms of the tenses |
| NoTeefy | which is mindblowing for me. You could be very precise when talking about a past /upcoming event |
| AndreofHazel | If I could learn German and Italian at some point in my life , I'd be a happy man. |
| NoTeefy | I have the same struggle with Italian that you do with German |
| NoTeefy | I learned it but I hardly use it |
| NoTeefy | and by hardly I mean once every 3 years or something 😄 |
| NoTeefy | It's a really bad idea to learn it though, they only speak it in Italy and Switzerland |
| AndreofHazel | Well, I never properly learned German, I hardly ever got a certificate 😛 |
| NoTeefy | that's it, not even in other colonies |
