They actually the same size, it's just latin alphabet is stupid and doesn't have a letter for sound SH.
Long is actually longer, imo.
Say them out loud and see which takes longer.
It's more like [lo:ng] than [long] like [bong]
Šort
Anyway, short in Estonian is "lühike" and long is "pikk" so we have the same issue
Pikk even sounds small, just like words have a certain phonetic sound.
Hahaha, "pikk" means penis in norwegian
And the word you use for salmon in Norwegian means “spank” (noun not verb) in Estonian
Also I’m craving some røkt laks right now, could you mail me some?
"Pik" in Dutch is also penis.
Poland chiming in. "Długi" and "Krótki". Same problem.
Incidentally, "dick" in Danish is "pik" regardless of what dimensions you're packing
Well I think ideally you would want a pikk pik. You may additionally want it to be jäme.
Jäme is thick? Delicious? Mighty?
Thick. But of course a mighty cock sounds good too
Yeah, but ng could easily be one letter, it’s just not in English.
Doesn't the same apply for "ng"? That seems like it could be one letter.
