Which language do you think will be the most important in the future: Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, or Russian?

So i'm natively spoke Indonesian language, which that use latin alphabet. And i mind to learn new language for my hobbies, also a language that popular in a world and use same writing system (latin alphabet).

I have two option that i confuse to pick⎯ French or Italian, they both have similar language if i could say. Do you have any suggestion maybe?

As though we needed MORE reasons to hate Outlook. (Users know.)

Frustration edit: I wrote a quick example sentence during my lunch at work, including a second "of" which I'll admit sounds a little awkward in context.

But Outlook suggests this EVERY TIME. It could say "Look at all of those chickens." 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆 Full stop. Still tries to change EVERY instance of "all of" to "all," context notwithstanding.

the two besides English!!!

- Due to conflict, a lot of people came to other countries from their homeland. These languages are both Slavic.

- There’s a city in the USA full of people who speak this language but if I say what, it will probably give it away and I also live near this city but not in it…

ذکرِ عدل و دادِ پادشاه

سپاس و ستایش مر خداوندی را سزاست که آفتابِ دولت را بر افقِ جهان افروخت و سایۀ عنایت خویش بر سرِ بندگان گسترد. در روزگارِ فرخندۀ پادشاهی، بنیادِ عدل و داد استوار گشت و رعایا در پرتوِ امن و امان به آسایش و آرامش روزگار گذراندند. فرمانِ همایون چون خورشیدِ جهان‌تاب بر آفاقِ ممالک تابید و نامِ شهریار به نیک‌نامی در صحایفِ ایام ثبت گردید.

Has anyone used "phrackronym" before?

Does anyone know what language this is? It sounds Native American to me.

UniLang Forum, the well-known online community for language enthusiasts and linguists, has been shut down. I used it for learning and for exploring resources on endangered languages.

Hi everyone!

I'm Alaa, an Arabic language educator, and I've been working on a personal project called Rooto.

I've noticed that Arabic learners often struggle with memorizing vocabulary without understanding how words are connected through roots and patterns.

So I created Rooto, an interactive web app inspired by a slot machine. With every spin, you discover an Arabic root, a word pattern, a derived word, its English meaning, and an example sentence showing how the word is used in context.

The idea is to make learning Arabic a little more playful and engaging!

Here's a quick video of how it works.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions!

Guy on train was yelling at people. I’m in Italy right now on holiday. Just curious

I know a little bit of Italian, but unfortunately, I couldn't make sense of the regional variations. In a few places, it looks like a different symbol was used instead of a double 's'. The book was written in Bologna. What are the linguistic features to watch out for in this book? What is different from today's Italian? What are the reasons for these differences? Are there any specific scientific language differences?

Edit:

Thanks for all of the answers. My knowledge of the language is very limited, and i have a hard time understanding complex sentences. I didn't take any lessons or such. I found this source while i'm on a different kind of research, and i wanted to understand why it's readable but strange. So, every answer really helped me understand and be amazed by the text. You're all awesome :)

Hello all,

Apologies in advance for any improper terminology I may use in this post. I am not a linguist.

I work in retail, and today we had a customer come in who didn't speak English at all. She asked me for help in her native language, which was no problem obviously, but it wasn't a language I recognized and it's been plaguing me all day.

She was wearing a hijab, so I assumed a Semitic, North African, or Austronesian language, just based on the languages commonly spoken in the Islamic world. But the only word I have to go off of - the word for "shoes" - I haven't been able to find in a translator or dictionary. I can't remember it perfectly, but I recall it starting with an S or SH sound, along with having a P and an L in it somewhere. I wanna say it was "schlipessi" or something but I'm positive that's wrong. (I'm sorry this is so vague - the shift was very long and if I could remember more I would share ☹️)

I have no idea if this is the right subreddit for this, but I've been driving myself in circles all day trying to figure this out so I thought I'd at least try my luck here.

Thank you!

I am genuinely curious if anyone knows anyone who has studied the international auxiliary planned language named r/LatinoSineFlexione because I am interested in studying r/LatinoSineFlexione before studying Latin.
