Come on where is your sense of adventure!? Go for Hungarian, you might learn something.
Yes, a new way to be distracted, frustrated, and utterly mystified.
If I wanted that, I’d just watch the news in my own native language or English 🤷
No? Hmmm Norwegian (Bokmål) then?
Would understand what everyone’s saying just fine, but would still be distracted by every minor mistranslation lol
I dipped my toe into learning a bit of Polish which is considered damn hard but still not as hard as Hungarian. I noped out after a few weeks, even though I would still love to be able to speak it. I can’t even imagine how much of a pain it could be learning the top5-10 hardest languages like Hungarian.
And, as the LanguageSimp puts it: there’s not much DLC that you can unlock with it.
I’d believe the biggest (excluding English) DLC unlocks are:
Chinese (dunno which dialect/version of it. Mandarin?)
Japanese
Portuguese
Spanish
And maybe some other overarching language that have commonalities with other language like a slavic language (afaik polish shares some words with russian or croatian?)Yes! I guess you could be successful with Arabic, too; I know it has its own dialects and accents, but still. Outside of Hungary, the only places you can use it is the border areas in neighbouring countries.
BUT if you talk to a decent Hungarian in their own language they will self immolate from the awe (I would).
And still never once did you stop and ask whether it’s you who speaks the wrong language.
I read 3 of the available languages fluently, that’s not the issue.
The issue is that I’m not fluent in not missing things and having the exact spoken words to read as I hear them helps my ADHD-riddled mind immensely.
Damn, that’s impressive! What languages do you know, if it’s not too invasive?
It’s less impressive than it sounds, since it’s the Scandinavian ones (Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish) , which are very similar to each other lol.
Other than that, im fluent in English, understand a good deal German (especially written, when given ample time), and remember a little bit of Spanish from school heh.
Das ist beeindruckend genug :)
tl.: That’s impressive enough :)
Having watched the Muppets, swedish isn’t too far off, right?
Speaking as someone culturally obligated to make fun of Sweden and Swedes? Sure!
Speaking in any other capacity, though? Not quite 😄
Somebody help me with a joke about a Czech mark
Isn’t it enough that you swindle the people of Czechia, you have to make fun of them individually too? 😉
Like your tats
That’s an actor in the show, not me 😄
Shoot. I was about to comment your sexy knees. I thought it was a reflection.
Too bad Hindi isn’t listed. I’ve found many a “Hearing Impaired” subtitle stream listed as such.
Are you looking for English or Spanish?
English. I have ADHD and reading the same words that I’m hearing helps me not get distracted and miss stuff, whereas even small mistranslations into another language I understand is itself a distraction…
My wife also has ADHD and says that watching stuff at 1.5x or 2x helps.
Yeah i get that reading the subs really helps with focus. It’s even the meta in shorts now to retain attention.
Do you need subtitles because that person on the couch is playing Wonderwall?
That’s a pirate on the deck of a ship but yeah, if someone on Our Flag Means Death starts playing everyone’s favorite party song, I’m gonna want subs for that too 😄
Summary:

Calling a language useless just because you don’t understand it has to be the most retarded take I’ve ever heard.
! Защо си направи труда да преведеш това, нали беше безполезен? !<
If you don’t understand it, isn’t it useless to you???
Also. Welcome to the fucking internet where not everything needs to be 100% serious.
I can read three of them. Take this opportunity to expand your horizon.
I have ADHD and need the subtitles to not miss anything and if they’re not in the same language as the show, I get distracted by imprecise translations.
And yeah, I can read 3 of them fluently too (Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish).
I’m not some monolingual American or whatever you seem to have imagined.
As an American I’d like to be offended but the reality is many of us aren’t even fluent in our primary tongue so monolingual is being generous.
That said how dare you
As a Dane, I apologize for the stinging accuracy of my offensive stereotyping 😄
It could be worse. You could speak a minority language. Then this shit stops being “mildly infuriating” to become “frankly depressing”.
True.
No English, Spanish or Chinese? Hmm
What service are you using that doesn’t offer English subtitles?
Max. They have some really great content (along with a lot of bad, but whatevs), but they’re REALLY bad at every other part of the whole streaming service thing:
Their player sucks, their selection of sub languages seems more or less random at times, their CC subs ate so badly formatted at synced that they’re literally worse than useless, and they keep recommending I watch the Bill Maher excrement every time I finish watching the latest episode of the excellent Last Week Tonight, with no option to block his smug face from my UI in any way.
I believe Bill Maher could suck the fun out of a bouncy castle by his mere presence.
I believe you’re absolutely right.
No Dothraki?
I find Macedonian is close enough to English that I can get by /s
