How do you spell that This is why English is obsolete, in Finnish language you pronounce things way you write them.

Yeah, in a lot of languages you do that. But nope, England had to sprawl its language everywhere.
Google translate spells it correctly, btw, even if there is too much accentuation making it sounds like italian.

In English, sometimes you spell things how you pronounce them, and other times you spell them differently. It depends on which language each word came from, and how much it changed since then. There are German words, Latin words, French words, Gaelic words, Greek words, even a couple of Hungarian words, and who knows how many from various other sources. In this case, we're talking about a Latin phrase.

As one quotation puts it, "The English Language doesn't "borrow" words from other languages, it follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over the head, and ransacks their pockets for loose grammar."

Having clear rules for language and spelling is a good thing, so English has several different rules for each of them. More is better, right? Forming a plural is dependent on the source of the word and several other irregular factors, so the plural of boy is boys (add an "s"), the plural of man is men (change the vowel), the plural of fish can be either fish (no change) or fishes (add "es") if there is more than one type, and the plural of octopus is octopi (change the "us" to "i"). A fine example of a rule in English spelling is "I before E, except after C.....unless it's weird". We even need to have exceptions to the exceptions....except if....

Can we not make this entire thread about Latin pronunciation?

 

[Sigwald]

So what, you'd rather talk about counters ?

In any of the circumstances, I'd rather have a thread where people share information, be it latin pronunciation. But then again, this forum is open to all, and when someone starts to make a thread interesting by debunking historical myths about Nazi "I could have gone to Vladivostok if I had fully mobilised before 1944" Germany, some moron ruins it by trolling..

So, what do we do ? Everything has been said about what new options about making casus belli, if the discussion is going to be about languages, let it be, and don't be that moron.

I'll go now, I'm going to watch some japanese anime where english is butchered, makes me feel better.

We could talk about the game.

Edit: Now that I look at it is seems that the National Goals system is somewhat similar to the missions in EU4. Those gave you CB's so you never know. Hopefully we will get more info on the political and diplomacy systems soon.

Is Germany the only playable nation in HOI4, Cheese Police?

I have to admit, before I realized that "cheese police" was the name of the poster of the comment, I thought this post was asking if the only aspect to HOI4 was Germany conquering and enforcing rule over France...

Inability to understand a topic is spent or desire to have the last word ? Oh whatever.

This issue is tied to the diplomatic system. We know they are trying to make a system able to handle twists in history but we don't know anything else and I'm not sure they know it for certain. In my opinion, they are still testing basic systems, maybe they are still brainstorming. The casus belli system is part of the diplomacy system. We shall know more about both at the same time.
