Given Duolingo is increasingly full of AI slop, it doesn’t surprise me.
they had fake languages before AI…
If there’s two things I cannot fucking stand, it’s people who are intolerant of other’s cultures… And the Dutch.
But you repeat yourself.

Apart from the joke, I think everyone should be intolerant of intolerance
Exaxtly. Please stop tolerating your own intolerance. It is intolerable.
Dutch spelling makes more sense than English spelling and English speakers have to live with that fact
we hebben een serieus probleem
Not if I don’t know Dutch
Learning Dutch can actually be really useful! For example I, as a Dutchman, like to use my own tongue whenever my Warlock communicates with their devil patron in our D&D games.
All languages are fake…
If its a functional language then its a language like any other.i will accept this argument for high valyrian and klingon… but dutch, rlly?
Yeah, imperative languages suck anyway
constructed languages are still languages. They may not be as well fleshed out as languages that developed naturally over time, but you can still learn and speak/write them. Some constructed languages are more complete than others.
yeah, those are real. dutch isn’t
Any language that has ‘stroopwafel’ cannot be a serious language.
Man, they’re good though.
don’t forget “ we hebben een serieus probleem ”
Hé, dat is niet aardig!
Today’s challenge: is it Dutch or Klingon
To many throaty sounds to be Klingon
Grachtengordel. Scheveningen. Qapla’.
Okay, you convinced me that this is indeed a fake language.
Aardig? Really?
Als we Nieuw Amsterdam niet hadden gegeven aan de Engelsen hadden jullie allemaal Nederlands gesproken! ;-)
We all probably would’ve been better off for it.
GEKOLONISEERD
How could you forget about Esperanto, you…
Ah because it’s a real one. Fine then.
And somehow still no Slovak.
Klingon is a better constructed language then most.
Qapla’!
Maj
than
Dutch sounds cool to me, though. I can see why people want to learn it even if it’s not real language.
