i think hebrew is fairly phonologically simple, isn't it
on glancing at the overview, the only thing that looks remotely challenging is that [χ] (כ or ח) contrasts with [ʁ] (ר)
even the vowel system is roughly the same five-vowel system used by languages like spanish (and nearly japanese), and both consonantal gemination and phonemic vowel length have been dropped in modern hebrew
we're not talking about something like keresan here
Do you realize how ridiculous you sound? 99% of people aren't going to know how to pronounce this, and even ones that think they do probably get it wrong.
99% of people don't know how to calculate the pressure loss due to turbulent flow through a long pipe either but they can look it up
the nice thing about languages with a relatively small inventory of phonemes is that getting pronunciations wrong is kind of hard
at worst you just sound like you have a weird accent
it's not like french or portuguese or chinese or ...
probably if i sound ridiculous to you it's because you're so out of your depth in the conversation you don't even know what knowledge you're missing, just like when i corrected you in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33753071
you would probably find it more to your advantage to try to learn the relevant things you don't know than to attempt to ridicule other people for knowing them
i refuted the argument you made first, though perhaps you lack the background knowledge to recognize that, and i didn't 'dig into someones comment history', i just recognized your name because it has only been a week since you got in my face in an aggressively ignorant way about linguistics stuff, and here you are doing the same thing again
i would like you to stop
ridiculing people for knowing things you don't is a terrible thing to do to yourself, and it also degrades the quality of the conversation for others
> you lack the background knowledge to recognize that
you want someone to stop, but yet you continually insult them, and crawl through their previous comments in order to avoid actually countering points made. I would like you to stop.
none of 'you continually insult them', '[you] crawl through their previous comments', nor '[you] avoid ... countering points made' are true
the second and third could have been honest mistakes, but i have already corrected you about them above, so they are no longer honest mistakes
i haven't insulted you at all
i just think your behavior is highly suboptimal and i would like it to be better
i am not going to stop doing any of the things you have asked me to stop doing because i would have to start doing them first in order to be able to stop
you are lying about me and i would like you to stop that too
