Anybody else think that the Spanish language is annoying?

Question

I love listening to foreign languages. I could listen to French, Italian, Chinese or Japanese all day long. I love the sound of them, but when it comes to Spanish it's like nails on a chalk board. Even reading it annoys me. Take the following example:

Las que bailan regueton les gusta que les restreguen el paquete entre las nalgas?

It's some question to people that like dancing to Raggaeton, but just look at it! Doesn't it make your head hurt? The words are so unnecessarily long and it's so gender oriented. Having to conjugate differently for a man and a woman, how bloody tedious is that! And don't even get me started on the subjunctive. Let's have an altogether different conjugation to express doubt and uncertainty, shall we?

P.S. Don't ever ask a Spanish speaker for directions. By the time they tell finish telling you, if you had just asked someone in English, you would be there already! Take it from me - I've missed many a highway exit and turn off because of this.

Whatever, dude. I didn't say I didn't like Mexicans. Have you forgotten how to read?

Yes sir, Walter Windbag, sir. You showed me.

Lighten up folks, Christ.

Answer 1

Que pregunta tan tonta, de verdad. No sabes lo que dices. No culpes al idioma español por tu ignorancia y dificultad para aprender.

Answer 2

To me, you have a bias against Spanish that goes beyond the linguistic issues. The tacky example you provided says nothing about Spanish.

But think this: It's just a language, with strengths and weaknesses, like all of them. It can be very rich and it's true that sometimes is unnecessary long (same as French). Regarding the gender use, think that german has one additional gender "neutral", which doesn't exist in Spanish.

English is simpler in some aspects and more complex in other.

Answer 3

Exactly the same as you. Don't hate spanish, just hate the teachers. Just tough it out and try not to make them mad at u or it will come back to haunt you trust me. Never got in trouble in school until I went to spanish class. I have a spanish teacher who admits to being arrested of growing pot in his basement. Is that even legal to teach now? Good Luck

Answer 4

As far as having to conjugate differently for a man and a woman, the same applies to French. So, you are not been consequent because you start by saying you listen French (in the first place).

As for the Raggaeton, I hate it but it has nothing to do with the Spanish language as such.

Last thing, try to listen spanish spoken by people with education and you (maybe) will be able to appreciate it better.

Answer 5

O.K. Sai G (Pink Cheese Green Goes) Sounds to me like you are saying (Pinche Gringos) Now that is not nice. I am white. Not all white people talk bad about mexicans or the spanish language. Also i think that the spanish language is nice. You just need to learn and understand it. So everyone needs to stop talking sh*t about languages they know nothing about. Not everyone was raised speaking english and i am sure they think english is weird also. And Sai G pink cheese makes no sense in spanish. It would be pronounced Peen Chay for Pinche in Spanish. So Callate Baboso!

Answer 6

What does grammar has to do with the sound of the language? And.. well... your ignorance tells you subjunctive exist only in Spanish? Well... it exist in French too.
Long words? lol you must be kiding, silly girl.
Gender oriented? wow! Ignorance shining again. Well.. you like Italian and French... without a problem.
Conjugate? Do you know what that word means? I don't think so.

Some people shouldn't be allowed to be near a computer. They just want to spread their stupid ignorant moronial opinions. Yeah.. you have the right to do that. Go ahead.

Answer 7

It all depends where the person you talk to is from, or how much education they have, I personally can't stand the caribbean accents and lingo. but if you talk to someone with education they may actually be more clear than someone speaking english. An other problem that you encounter is that there are terms that don't have an actuall translation in any language.

Answer 8

Okay, first of all, your example was some dirty and vulgar Spanish , believe me it doesn't all sound like that and we Spanish speakers aren't all dirty and vulgar...
You're entitled to you opinion, but if you're gonna make it public, you should expect the disagreements and hate that this might bring...
Now, the fact that it's more complicated only makes it more accurate, but some people just don't have the brain capacity to assimilate it...

Answer 9

I see, bert, you lack the necesary mental capacity to understand a complex and very expressive language, with many nuances.
You can understand only 200 words of a single language. If you are in such a rush, take a plane.
By the way, who wrote the message here on your behalf ?
It is too correct. I am sure that you cannot write this on your own
I sure feel sorry for you

Answer 10

I'm sorry about that...and really feel so much sorrow about you.
evidently you havent been with any spanish speaker with a minumun level of education. The sentence you have posted is tellling me that. May be your intellectual level is not so much hight either....i dont know you, but it seems that is that way.
I can talk fluently 4 languages, write and read them, but never had any trouble learning any of them.
I'm sorry if you have problems to learn.

By the way.....spanish...the good one, is very nice and sweet lang, but sure....one has to be able to understand it.
Not all the pple can be smart.
