18 Möglichkeiten, Europa sprachlich zu spalten

South Slavs should be the same colour. Spain has more language and dialect varieties.

For a while I was wondering where all the Yiddish speakers on Bornholm came from.

As a Dutch speaker I only learned today that Flemish (‚Belgian Dutch‘) is still using feminine/masculine nouns! I just assumed Flemish and Dutch were grammatically the same and both used Common/Neuter!

as for Lithuanian:

1) why did you label Vilnius city as Polish speaking? It is clearly majority Lithuanian
2) yet no sign of Lithuanian majority in Puńsk of Poland.
3) as for SVO, Lithuanian has very liberal sentence order, although generally SVO feels most natural.
4) while nouns have only 2 genders, adjectives, pronouns, participles or numbers also have neuter
5) why do you call the combo Slavic 6 and not Balto-Slavic 6?
6) Lithuanian adjectives, numbers, some pronouns or participles do have definite suffixes
7) as for foreigner talking Lithuanian, that would mean instant BFF

For the diacritics part, forgot Ľ for Slovak, same goes for ŕ and ĺ .

Hungarian word order is not based on the SVO system, it’s emphasis based.

I dislike how the Russian claim to Ukrainian national territory since their invasion started 12 years ago apparently influenced the outlines of the Russian and Ukrainian languages in these maps.

For diacritics, they forgot „Œ œ“, used only in french -like in „sœur“ or „œuf“

english R varies by position, and has a lot of regional variations too.

usually an r at the start of the word, or otherwise with a vowel after it, is a [ˈɹ̠], but that sound wouldn’t be used for an r in the middle of the world for most english accents.

when in the middle of a word (like in ‚word‘), in received pronunciation the R is unpronounced. so ‚marker‘ is /ˈmɑːkə/ with no Rs in it at all.

specifically in rhotic accents, the [ɹ̠] is used, giving /ˈmɑɹ̠kəɹ̠/. this is typically associated with american accents, but is also a feature across the south-west of england, other parts of the rural south, scotland, and ireland.

there are also regions that use taps/trills ([ɾ] and [r]), including birmingham, some northern accents, welsh, and some scottish accents.

currently the map implies that all of england is rhotic, when only the south-west is really.

and it implies that scotland uses trills universally, which isnt true at all, trills are very rare in scottish english, which mostly uses the rhotic [ɹ̠].
