If it doesn't have tenses how do you avoid horrible misunderstandings like "I shat myself", "I'm shitting(rn)" and "I will shit"? One indicates that you just crapped your pants in public, the other means you're currently sitting on the toilet, and the last one means you VILL shit sometime in the future. How tf do you tell the difference or do you try to rely on context and hope for the best?

>I currently shit
>I will shit
How hard is that nigga

>>214500966
That's why you should learn Bahasa Indonesia anon...

>>214500954 (OP)
Indonesian sounds like literal monkey speak and I think tamilians speak the most monkey language. Learn Urdu or Persian, apart from Arabic.

>>214500954 (OP)
But why though. It's not like I can marry any as Indonesian woman wouldn't love me anyway because I'm an infidel o algo

At least half of these also apply to Esperanto.

>>214501625
Yea but Esperanto is a fake language nobody actually speaks

>>214501103
The vast majority of the time it's obvious by context, in the few cases where it isn't you can add words like "right now" or "tomorrow" or "last Friday".

>>214501648
I speak it, as do probably a few hundred thousand other people (a few million if you're willing to define "speak" generously).

>>214500954 (OP)
I had to study it in high school. Vocab was always shit, plurals that just double the word make my English brain bleed, interest in culture was more my thing.

The language sounds like chopped up garbage to the English ear.

languages without grammatical genders aren't real languages, just memes at best

Why do Indo gooks draw hijabi porn when their woman dress like typical Asians?

>>214500954 (OP)
Looks like it sounds terrible.
I'll stick with the English I know and the Esperanto I don't.

>>214502466
If you can skip a pronoun by conjugating a verb, sure. If my fruits are masculine, but my apple and orange are feminine (as in French), that's just bananas, or a pineapple if you drop the B and decide it has testicles.

Tamilians speak like that which is why I called their language monkey speak.

>>214502466
So most languages aren't real languages?

Grammatical gender for inanimate objects is just a grammatical convention, it has more to do with word endings than gender gender.

>>214500954 (OP)
Literally every single thing you mentioned is bad except consistent pronunciation and phonetic language

>>214504872
How is lack of gendered nouns bad? How are consistent verbs bad? How is SVO word order bad? (That's what Italian has too you know.) How is using Latin script bad? How is being a widely-spoken language with official status bad?

>>214504872

Because my accent would be trash and I don't know if I'd be able to land a job in Indonesia. Why would they want me there?
