I know for example, Mandarin (Chinese) has it like from this sentence: 我睡了八個小時 (I slept for 8 hours), the hanzi: 覺 is omitted in this sentence because 睡 is already a word with its own meaning “sleep” which in itself conveys the meaning of the verb. There are “Euro” languages where separable verbs exist such as Dutch or German for example. Is there an equivalent of that in the English language though?


I found German easier to learn than Spanish.
1 data point does not a sample make
I guess I’m just built different
And your mother tongue is…?
English. And learning German was as easy for me as Spanish, if not easier.
you’re weird.
officially it takes 600 hours to learn spanish/french, and 900 for german.
i have taken spanish and french and they were way easier to learn than german. German is inflected and has weird grammar compared to spanish and french.
