Such a beautiful language 🥲

So I have been learning french for a few months now. It wasn't that difficult but I had significantly harder time learning it than any other language and I couldn't quite put it on why it was. And today I think that I have come to a breakthrough. I realized that French is a very condensed language (well in pronunciation at least).

Like I have shown on the image, it is usually the case that a single phoneme in French sentence can carry an entire word of meaning. And this I guess was an obstacle that was just mentally very hard for me to overcome because it really isn't the case in any other language that I know (I know English, Polish, Spanish, Japanese and a little bit of German and Turkish). The most condensed language up to this point that I knew was actually English, but even it uses at least 2-3 phonemes to represent most of it's words.

I guess this is also why some french teachers are really strict about correct pronunciation, because pronouncing even a single letter wrong in french would most likely change the entire meaning of a sentence, because of how condensed the pronunciation is. The example also shows how much disparity there is between writing and pronunciation of french, which is just an objectively hard thing about learning this language.

Maybe this will help some people who also learn French and maybe have the same problem that I had.
