    I’m sure all languages get proportionally similar amounts of flak, but crucially it’s in their own language. You don’t see anyone making fun of Korean because you (presumably) don’t speak Korean and don’t go to the same kinds of forums where such mockery is more likely.

    Source: I speak Hebrew and we make fun of Hebrew all the time.

        If they’re as useless and ambiguous as they are in English, we’re doing fine without them, thanks :)
