      I read 3 of the available languages fluently, that’s not the issue.

      The issue is that I’m not fluent in not missing things and having the exact spoken words to read as I hear them helps my ADHD-riddled mind immensely.

          It’s less impressive than it sounds, since it’s the Scandinavian ones (Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish) , which are very similar to each other lol.

          Other than that, im fluent in English, understand a good deal German (especially written, when given ample time), and remember a little bit of Spanish from school heh.

      Isn’t it enough that you swindle the people of Czechia, you have to individually mock them? 😉

      English. I have ADHD and reading the same words that I’m hearing helps me not get distracted and miss stuff, whereas even small mistranslations into another language I understand is itself a distraction…

    Do you need subtitles because that person on the couch is playing Wonderwall?

      That’s a pirate on the deck of a ship but yeah, if someone on Our Flag Means Death starts playing everyone’s favorite party song, I’m gonna want subs for that too 😄

      Calling a language useless just because you don’t understand it has to be the most retarded take I’ve ever heard.

      ! Защо си направи труда да преведеш това, нали беше безполезен? !<

        If you don’t understand it, isn’t it useless to you???

        Also. Welcome to the fucking internet where not everything needs to be 100% serious.

      I have ADHD and need the subtitles to not miss anything and if they’re not in the same language as the show, I get distracted by imprecise translations.

      And yeah, I can read 3 of them fluently too (Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish).

      I’m not some monolingual American or whatever you seem to have imagined.

        As an American I’d like to be offended but the reality is many of us aren’t even fluent in our primary tongue so monolingual is being generous.

        That said how dare you
