Barely any korean? Shouldn't you have been making the effort to learn the Korean language so that you'd be able to discuss w/ your team mates?


Yeah IdrA, I mean you've been in Korea for a year and you haven't won a Starleague or become fluent in Korean? WTF man, WTF.

some people have ridiculous expectations o.o


I know a lot of Koreans who learned to speak english quite well within a year of moving to the US. Not completely fluently, but they were able to talk in english well enough so that they could hold a conversation.

A year and being surrounded in a korean-speaking environment should have been more than enough to learn the Korean language to a point where he can discuss things w/ his team mates, at least on a basic level.

English is easier to learn, and they likely had more prior training than Idra did. Not only that, but they also had more time to go out and get involved with the world, rather than practicing 8+ hours a day. Whatever your friends did really has no comparison to Idra's experience.


English is one of the hardest languages for a foreigner to learn.


lol bullshit statement?
English is easy. Not only because of its structure but also because of the reason that pretty much everything can be found in english.
If English is the hardest language to learn 'for a foreigner', then what the hell are you gonna call Chinese, Finnish, Polish, etc?


Apparently Turkish is ridiculous because there's no set sentence pattern, like subject, verb, object and you can put words together however you want, making it difficult for foreigners to learn. I hear that speaking Chinese is easy, it's just learning all the characters that make it a bit of a hassle.


hahahah yea a BIT of a hassle

Haha, I learned to speak English pretty easily. Now, I'd love to hear a native English-speaker pronounce my name correctly. It's NEVER happened to this day. Try it, "iiro". Yeah, it's a Finnish name.

The bandage was wound around the wound.

The farm was used to produce produce.

The dump was so full that it had to refuse more refuse.

We must polish the Polish furniture.

He could lead if he would get the lead out.

The soldier decided to desert his dessert in the desert..

A bass was painted on the head of the bass drum.

When shot at, the dove dove into the bushes.

I did not object to the object.

The insurance was invalid for the invalid.

Since there is no time like the present, he thought it was time to present the present.

There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row.

They were too close to the door to close it.

The buck does funny things when the does are present.

A seamstress and a sewer fell down into a sewer line.

To help with planting, the farmer taught his sow to sow.

The wind was too strong to wind the sail.

After a number of injections my jaw got number.

Upon seeing the tear in the painting I shed a tear.

I had to subject the subject to a series of tests.

How can I intimate this to my most intimate friend?


these are hard to read on your first try.

English is probably one of the more difficult languages to master (most words of any language, tons of grammatical "exceptions", verb conjugation does not follow set rules), but certainly to just learn enough to communicate and get by, it's not so bad.

Just think how poorly most native English speakers use the language.

He's referring to the fact that a lot of people who have learned English as a second language have better grammar than native speakers.

It's true.
It felt like gravity.

No he is right to an extent.
Most young people don't speak English properly, even if they're from England!

For instance I don't know another language that has countable and uncountable nouns.
e.g. grass is uncountable
trees is countable.

This is one of the most ironic videos I have seen - an assembly hall filled with kids dressed in sports wear, whose job is to play video games, performing aerobic exercises... while sitting down. The amount of self-contradiction is uncanny.

I don't know of a language that doesn't have countable and uncountable nouns. I love these English-speakers acting like they know everything. It's one of the most simple languages to learn, seriously. Swedish and Spanish or whatever can be easier, but English is by no means difficult.
