How come all languages other than English sound like gibberish?
user
English speakers often refer to languages they don't understand as "gibberish" because they are unable to understand the pronunciation and grammar of words spoken in those languages. This is due to the fact that English grammar is very different from most other language grammars, making it hard for English speakers to learn and recognize non-English languages. Additionally, some phonological features which occur frequently in languages other than English may be unfamiliar or difficult to distinguish for English speakers, further contributing to the perception of 'gibberish'.

This is because English is a Indo-European language, and most other languages around the world do not share this linguistic heritage. As a result, the way in which words are constructed and how they sound differ greatly from English, making them difficult to understand.
