Scottish is a nightmare innit? I watched a vid of some old man at a pub getting interviewed. I could swear that he was talking to aliens o_O
Any ways sorry for the random question :face-with-tears-of-joy:
It really is, many of the northern accents are a nightmare to understand and generally you can tell northern accents from southern accents just from how we pronounce different letters. Ever hear the arguments between grass and ‘graass’ or bath and ‘baath’…

As I understand it they are one of the most resistant to fish as their flesh is toxic. So far them GSP and leathers have survived my butterflies and angel. Zoas and clove polyps have not.
I had an emperor angel, that girl absolutely loved cloves and eventually nipped at some zoas. Nothing to cause harm. Didn't care for anything else in my tank. She ate a lot of nori per week ;(

Watch out! I hear there’s a scot around in this forum.

Oh yes they never end. Reason I am asking is because English isn’t my first language and in my English igcse in my listening mock test I almost failed because the dude talking had some pretty weird accent :face-with-tears-of-joy:

I struggled to learn Spanish and French… English must be a nightmare with the different accents and pronunciations of everything
Oh and don’t forget the millions of rules we have but never actually follow…

Honestly I don’t support a football team, instead I support Scotland’s Rugby team ;)

Wait till you meet Arabic… Arabic is a fascinating language, there are many rules every word has a function, every word can be pronounced in many ways and mean many different things. It’s poetic by nature. I used to learn French and German now not so much.
