BrainKing - Discussion boards (Languages)

Languages

Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

To see translations of some frequently used phrases and sentences in other languages see Languages

Subject: Re: Can someone translate this please? Also turkish!

Ebru: Hi Ebru, I would like to know how difficult it is to distinguish between the i, ı and y. Do native Turkish-speaking people make mistakes in this or is the usage of them quite clear? We have just i and y in Czech, being pronounced the same way, and you'd be surprised how often Czechs make mistakes in using them.
