While Anglos and Westerners usually at least try to pronounce, say, Japanese names right, they don’t even bother with Slavic/Eastern European ones, especially the ones with Cyrillic letters in them, which means that they end up writing the names ending with ‘ić’, as ‘ich’, and pronounce it with K. For example, if the last name is ‘Jovanović’, they’ll write it ‘Jovanovich’ and pronounce it ‘Jovanovik’.
There are names such as Ivan, Bela or Vera, which get pronounced as Ajvan, Beyla or Veyra instead of properly and of course Stalin being pronounced as Stalin instead of Staljin.
Then DimitrescU, if I have to hear it pronounced without U one more time, I’m going to lose it… They keep saying it without U, which just makes it sound French almost as if it’s Dimitresque, how hard is it to pronounce it with U?
Then the last name Ćertić, they write it as Certic or Sertic, which is completely wrong.
And the one I saw most recently, Miloch or Milosh instead of Miloš, it’s one of the most common names in Serbia and I see it frequently written like that for some goddamn reason.
So, why is it so hard for Westoids to at least try to pronounce and write Eastern European names correctly while being able do it accurately for Japanese ones which are miles harder?
Ok, now relate that to linguistics.
You’re obviously aware that Anglos have real crimes to be criticised for because you reach for all of them immediately when you feel your hatred of them is being attacked, but you’re viewing it through a reactionary lens of chauvinism and nationalism, assigning cultures as inferior and superior, rather than looking at the material conditions that caused them, and taking a vibes based “Anglo bad” stance towards everything rather than doing any examination of their contexts. You say you’re a communist, but the idea that bad acts make an entire culture inferior is just base racism, and that good acts make an entire culture superior chauvinism. The idea that English should be pronounced like Slavic languages despite the material differences in their development is completely incoherent. Your ideological basis for what you’re saying is just fascism.
Look at it this way: did you fight the Turks or Nazis?
It’s not my fault that rest of the world is better. It’s not my fault that they did the shit they did all these centuries and are still doing it today. As I said, I didn’t say that they’re inferior because of culture and because they’re white and Anglos, but because of everything they did. Anglos change the names completely in order to suit their pronunciation instead of trying to pronounce it properly. Every single non-Eastern European person I knew tried to pronounce it right even if they don’t have certain letters in their language and all of them did it miles better right off the bat than Anglos, this is simply because Anglos don’t give a single shit about certain languages and culture most of the time, there are exceptions but in general it’s like that. After portraying the Eastern Europe the way they do for like centuries by now, I don’t even expect them to, same thing stands for a lot of other parts of the world they hate.
I can say that proudly that my ancestors did, unlike Anglos.
