I speedran the newest language on Duolingo: Zulu

🧀CHEESY STORE is live! zilla.club/collections/jccbm 🧀The CHEESY STORE is finally up and running!🧀It's quite new and there's only a couple products, but we'll be adding more stuff periodically (20:34)
Finally, the time has come. Funnily enough, this actually happened the day after Zulu (isiZulu) was released in Duolingo. But editing takes time and here we are. You might have heard the Zulu language if you've ever enjoyed the musical masterpiece that is the sountrack from "The Lion King". Weirdly enough, the music is mostly in Zulu, but the names of the characters are in Swahili. Needless to say it was a very fun challenge with some cool unique sounds you've probably never heard. If you've ever heard of "click sounds", you might have an idea of what we're about to experience.
Part 2 will be coming soon enough.

Zulu has an aspirated/unaspirated destinction for it's consonants, that's why the k in,, kahle" sounds more like a,, g" then the one in mkhulu, one has a puff of air, like,, k" in most varities of english(other the irish) and the other one doesn't, which makes it sound more like a,, g", because voiced stops like g are usually unaspirated, because it's kinda hard to aspirate them

[@jccbm]

That's why it reminded me of Korean, they also do aspirated/unaspirated instead of voiced/unvoiced to distinguish certain pairs of letters.

[@aroma13]

@@jccbm icelanding is a language where it used to be voiced/unvoiced, but then voiced consonants b/d/g devoiced,and so the destinction became aspiration

I’m South African. My friends and I just huddled around one of our phones and decided to just 👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️👁️ at the course as we went through it. Also, aside from the official languages, if you take a look at the country’s Indian community (from which yours truly is from✨), there’s also Gujarati, Urdu etc. It’s a language party 🎉 P.S. Yebo can also mean yes. It’s so easy to remember, as a lot of kids just go ‘YEBO YEEEEEESSSS-‘

The final i in Romanian shows that the last consonant is palitalized or atleast that's what Google is telling me, as a Romanian I can naturally tell apart if there is a final i or not Regarding Palalatization sometimes even the last consonant changes: Aud (I hear) - Auzi ( You hear) Văd (I see) - Vezi (You see) Coardă (string) - corzi (strings) Camarad (comrade) - camarazi (comrades) Înalt (tall) - înalți (tall pl) Băiat (boy) - băieți (boys) Răpit (kidnaped) -răpiți (kidnaped pl) Patriot (patriot) - patrioți (patriots) As (ace) -ași (aces) Gras (fat sg) -grași (fat pl) Fals (fake sg) -falși (fake pl) Bărbos (bearded) - bărboși (bearded pl)

2:00 Romanian does not have silent i. The only silent letters you will find in Romanian are the h in chi, ghi, che, ghe. We actually pronounce the i in 'inalti', you can even hear it in the translation of the sentence.

[@shaina8947]

it's very soft, to non-native speakers it sounds kinda silent. i think it's the same for this language & when it's spoken conversationally it's even harder to hear

[@jccbm]

Agreed. It almost feels like putting the mouth in the position of the letter and just using the residual air to barely even leave a futile trace of a shy letter's desire to exist. It's just simpler to say "weird silent I"

How long ago was this recorded? I think Duolingo switched to the new path thing a year ago, and Zulu is no longer a beta language.

I believe September-October last year

Those “silent” i’s you mentioned about Romanian don’t exist :))) We do pronounce the i’s. Ț is pronounced TS while ȚI is pronounced TSI

I commend you for your pronunciation that I hear not even south Africans doing the clicks right, granted they aren't zulu, Xhosa, tswana, etc you get what I mean Noun classes, are the worst and cannot be spedrun, you have been warned

[@jccbm]

Thanks! If you hear how I did with some other clicks, you might change your mind though 🤣

[@LordofLegendandItsLaanda]

@jccbm I've heard VERY traumatizing pronunciations down here with just the vowels, I little trouble with the clicks is nothing
