Serious If you pronounce it "dah-ta" instead of "day-ta", you're an uncivilized savage

I pronounce as it is written as Finnish is pronounced as it is written
D makes D sound
A makes Aaa sound
T makes T sound

DATA has four letters, thus you have to move your mouth in four different positions

I say "day ta" (more like "day ra" tbh) because I mostly learned American English. Those differences are funny, just have a phonetically consistent language theory.

Yeah, since I've been learning German I'm even less of a fan of english than I was before. English is an easy language to learn in general but its innumerable idiosyncrasies and inconsistencies don't endear it to me much. It is a good language for complex ideas though

The written version of it is very good. The spoken one is way too inconsistent and too many difficult sounds.

But English grammarmogs German to oblivion. German grammar is terrible. Plurals are a nightmare, genders make no sense, cases suck, etc.

I'd actually say the opposite, the spoken is quite easy according to my experience with immigrants and language teachers, at least in respect to the grammar and rules. Much easier than something like German. Inconsistencies definitely are commonplace but they tend to be exceptions as opposed to rules, so that most immigrants who know barely coherent broken english I can actually talk to as opposed to the Arabs or Chinese that only know broken German.

When it comes to grammar, German is more "logical" in the sense that it's consistent and follows a system of sensical rules unlike English, but you're right that it's definitely not intuitive to foreigners. I struggle to keep all the rules in my head when I speak but I understand Germans pretty well and can read and write quite decently after a couple years. I doubt it'd be the same with Romance languages or god forbid north Germanic languages.
