If you could wake up tomorrow being fluent in one new language, which would you choose?

la doñita que dice que habla 50% de inglés habla mejor inglés que mucha banda que conozco que dice que habla bien inglés :v

The 50% lady is so amazingly humble! Her English was great! She only needs a bit more confidence!

Estoy en shock de ver la cantidad de extranjeros que cero hablan español pero aún así como mexicanos buscamos la forma de ayudarles. Soy mexicana viviendo en Francia y tuve que aprender el idioma a producto de gallina en 6 meses sino me ignoraban

I like how honest they are. They tell you they can talk 1 language. They do not count a language they struggling to talk. I think they can talk and understand english but they do not include it because they struggle to talk english. Other people will tell you they can talk other languages or a little but they can only do greetings and count to 10 and few sentences and that is not enough to count a language as a language you know.

I am mexican I speak 6 languages. I would say a big amount of mexican people can understand English but they are not confident enough on speaking. I Love your videos

I'm from Mexico City, and I am fluent in four languages. While most Mexicans take English classes, they often struggle to speak it well due to limited opportunities for practice. However, in border states like Tamaulipas, Tijuana, and Ciudad Juarez, you will encounter a higher number of people who are fluent in English. In contrast, many Europeans effortlessly speak three or four languages because their countries are geographically close, granting them easy access to interactions with individuals who speak different languages.

I love how Mexican people are really nice and humble. It’s nice to see the diversity of the country. Definitely a country with amazing people. I think many Mexicans would like to learn more languages, German and French are really popular. Recently other languages are becoming more popular like Japanese and Chinese due to the amount of foreigners from those countries. Personally I would love to learn German and Russian. Have tons of fun in Mexico and welcome to our beautiful country! 🇲🇽 ❤

In Mexico, it is hard to learn other languages than English because we have no neighbors who speak other languages, the closest are Haiti and Canada where both speak French. I would like it to be as in Europe, where there are many countries and languages in a small portion of land.

Es raro ver la Ciudad de México a través de los ojos de un amable foráneo. Muy bonito.

Yo tengo un tío de Oaxaca que habla mixe, mixteco y español. Mis respetos para él.

I have really loved the Mexican people. They are so cute ❤❤

I'm surprised by the amount of people that said German. Learning it myself, very difficult but fun. 🐢

Soy de Alemania y me Sie to muy triste, porque mi paisano dice CDMX es una ciudad caótica. Para mi es toda vez muy impresionante la autoorganización y disciplina de la gente en esta hermosa ciudad.

Maxican people are quite easy going and friendly. What a great way to get to know the culture.

Mexico City is so spectacular. Miss it so much. What a lucky guy you are to be there.

I love how well this video shows the diversity of people in Mexico City ❤ Welcome back, Dan!

Es increíble la cantidad de personas extranjeras que ya radican en la CDMX, la globalización ha ido incrementando mucho en estos años. Creo que para las personas que comienzan a radicar en el país es muy importante que de verdad empiecen a hablar el español por que siendo realistas, fuera de las zonas de "alto nivel" en donde es en donde normalmente comienzan a radicar como La condesa, Roma, Escandón, etc. no es tan común que se hable español.

I am amazed that so many Mexicans have an interest in german. Myself being german, I really like Mexico as well. I hope those people that are interested are able to learn german :)

Wow, you can easily identify who is mexican and who is not. The attitude is quite different from other nationatilities. They are easy-going, welcoming and seem happy.

I am from Germany and I can tell we have a huge variety of dialects here like bayerisch, fränkisch, alemannisch, berlinerisch and sächsisch just to name a few

Please don’t forget that Mexico is, in fact, multilingual. We have at least 50 active different native languages. I do understand that interviews tend to be centralized for the purposes of this video but does not reflect a city’s identity. 🖤 And for the public: not only hegemonic languages matter. Thanks.

As a person who learns German I both happy to see so many people wanting to learn German, and afraid of them. German is beautiful but so hard.

Personalmente admiro mucho a estas personas que hablan o aprenden lenguas originarias porque merecen ser preservadas ya que se encuentran en muy frágil estado. Desde hace 5 meses me puse a estudiar náhuatl porque tuve familia de mi mamá que lo hablaba. Para mí eso es motivo de orgullo.

Veo que en la CDMX muchas personas tienen un buen nivel de inglés, yo vivo en el Estado de México, muy cerca de la ciudad, pero muchos de mis compañeros de universidad no saben nada más que el español, es impresionante ver la diferencia de conocimiento de idiomas que hay en estos dos lugares a pesar de la cercanía entre ellos

A little thing unnoticed is that a lot of people speak2 languages, spanish being the second, but don't talk about it because of discrimination. My Great grandma spoke Purepecha, but didn't teached my grandma so she didn't get bullied.

Very interesting. I see a lot of people in Mexico City wanting to learn German. I guess maybe because of the shared Spanish-German heritage in the country, which has a longstanding history. By just looking at the feasts and music as an example.

Wow, you're in Mexico City again. That's great! Congrats!

I loved this. I had a great time in Mexico recently and it was fun to see you interacting with people to get their insight on the use of languages.

I've seen the episodes from New Yorke, London, Barcelona and Harvard so far but never tought I will hear Romanian in Mexico :D (Me speaking Hungarian, Romanian, English and bit of German). Greetings from Transylvania.

المكسيك البلد الجميل

I love how theres loads of people just sitting around and chilling with friends outside, people my age (19) don’t often do that in London UK, its too cold most the time

Me sorprende que pocos quieran hablar chino. Es una lengua complicada, pero hermosa y me parece que va a ser útil en el futuro cercano

Mexican here, 25 years old. 4 degrees in Engineering, and I speak 18 languages: Spanish, Nahuatl, English, French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Arabic, Hebrew, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Arabic, Catalan, Greek, Norwegian and Swedish. In at least 9 of them I fluent enough. I'm studying also Thai, Viet, Farsi and Hindi and I'm practicing LSM too.

I like the sincerity with which they express themselves. I hope one day to visit the city. Greetings traveler!

I'm happy to see mexican people always wanna improve their skills, specially speaking another language. Que bonito ver a la gente siempre sonriendo, se contagia la buena vibra de los mexicanos 😊🇲🇽

vivo en guadalajara y hay muchisimas personas que hablan ingles por el centro (ultimamente) antes todo era en español y hoy escucho muchisimas conversaciones en ingles

I am Mexican but I live in Florida since I study here and I can speak Spanish, English, German And I'm learning French :)

Wow, I really liked this one! 🐢 I'm impressed to see how popular French is in CDMX! And also German, both much more than Portuguese for ex. The Mexicans seem really wanna eager to read and talk those two.

Love your videos! 🫶🏼 but this is special because I’m from Mexico City and I love to see how people is really interested in learning languages. Hope you had a great time here!

I'm from Mexico City too, i'm 15 years old I speak 3 languages spanish, english (sometimes is bad LOL) and german but the next summer i'm going to learn french and another language that i could learn would be russian

I miss Cuidad de Mexico! I need to get back. All the diversity is really exciting

Hey ya'll, as someone formally studying the nature of languages, you don't have to say you speak half of a language because language proficiency is not dependent on lexicology; you speak it, period! AnnaGloria at 2:07 is a great example!

Here from România! I would like to say that I speak many languages like : Romanian ,Italian , Spanish, Portuguese, English and a little from German, Polish,Russian and Arabic! I wish you all the best!

Most people in Mexico can think that speak language is something that foreign people only can do ! this video is a piece of evidence is not true ! Glad to see that some local people can make it ! Welcome back and hoping for more ! 😊

Beautiful country mexico TE amo mexico 🥺❤️🥰

Mexico has such beautiful people. 😍😍

This series is one of the best things you've done . So interesting . Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing 👍

¡Muy chido el video amigo! Pásala genial en el DF. ¡Saludos!

I'm Mexican and I can speak english, german and i'm currently learning japanese! C:

You took some great perspectives! I really enjoyed this video.

Tus videos siempre son muy inteligentes y con fondo. Saludos y siempre eres bienvenido de vuelta.

For people from a German, or French speaking country: Many Mexicans actually have a genuine interest in learning German and French. But is hard to find a language education course with enough quality for learn it and accesible to the public. With French is a little bit easy because we have the "Alliance Française" and Mexicans can travel to Canada "somehow easy". (Mainly for student exchange) but not everyone have access to that opportunity. With German is hard, because even if you find a course (That is not always cheap). Unlike English (Which many people learn mainly because of work or because is the only language accessible to learn it) People like German or French because of the culture, or how it sounds. Other languages that people might be interested to learn, might be Japanese, Italian, and maybe Portuguese and Chinese. (And recently Korean)

I'm so glad you try to make this experiment everywhere you go. I was born and raised in Mexico City and I'm glad to see that my fellow "chilangos" (word used to appoint someone from Mexico City) are still well-known for their politeness. I hope you improve your spanish with all this interviews. Cheers for all of your work et merci encore!

I read through the comments and wanted to say that if you go to France and dont speak the language, you may have the impression that people ignore you…or that they dont make any effort to understand you… BUT, as a French (married with a spanish speaker), I can say that most French people dont speak another language and they rapidly feel uncomfortable and even stressed if they can’t understand. They just dont know how to handle the situation ! Dont take it personnaly 🙃

Welcome to back to Mexico!!! Pleasure to see you for these lands!

In Mexico normally people don't learn another language because our neighbors are just USA and French who speak English and French, normally people tries to learn French, in my case I learn German and I try with a little of Russian, I also would like to learn French but normally English is the standard.

Me encantó la señora de Rojo tiene buena pronunciación👍, tal vez solo le falta practica para sentirse mas cómoda

Hey! I’m from mexico city and I’ve been studying in vancouver for about 1 year and that’s how I met you. I’m not gonna lie, I was excited when I saw you went to my homeland lol

I made it to the end. Great Video! Regards from a fellow Canadian

México va a hablar español e Ingles en su mayoría, no somos como Europa en donde todos los países que colindan hablan diferentes lenguas. Es simplemente ubicación geográfica que la mayoría de mexicanos hable español e Ingles, los más cultos por amor al arte hablarán más de 3.

Hello from Minnesota USA! I love this videos so much! They encourage me to keep on the language learning journey

Damn dude, I literally go to school in that street you interviewed those two Mexican girls at the end, so I’m literally there everyday but the weekends, it would be cool to meet you, maybe next week if you’re still around!

awesome video video Dan, pretty entertaining. BTW,: those two ladies at 08:11 impressive how good they can communicate in the English language.

eeeh que buen video me gusto la vibra que daba yo soy de mexico y apenas ando aprendiendo frances

Thanks for video! I knew Mexicans learn French in school but i was much surprised that's many of them would like to learn German 😅

Is interesting how in mexico city the people know a lot of english and foreign lenguages.. but if you go to oaxaca or an small city out of the capital you can find people that knows more than 3 lenguajes sometimes like foreign lenguages and mexican lenguages like Nahuatl, Mixteco and Zapotec..

dude the way you color grade the shots is amazing, keep up the good editing!!

quality content man you gained a subscriber

Nowadays, if you went to another planet, aliens would like "yeah, I speak English, French and a little bit of Spanish... and Pfsdjöódlefwwq, my native language, of course"

I have to say, I’m really impressed by the level of English in this video. The Chilangos got game!

I am learning french, chinese, english , italian and I speak spanish ,I am mexican girl of Mexico City

Welcome to Mexico 🇲🇽 ❤️

Greetings from Lima what a coincidence found this video!

Great video.

Welcome to Mexico City! Being a first year high school student (prepa 9!) in cdmx, i'm fluent in 8: spanish, mixtec (I'm from Tlaxiaco, Oaxaca though i'm not indigenous), english, italian, french, portuguese, mandarin chinese and japanese. And like a 25% arabic. If i could master one more it's gonna be nahuatl, the crazily beautiful language of the Aztecs (Mexicas). I'm really into different languages, or even more, the different but amazing cultures behind them. No joke and if one day i have money i'll travel around our world, surprising native people with their native language 😍😂 And i'm preparing for the TOEFL exam right now, 100% out of interest. Have done tpos and my score is around 108~110, still trying to improve Not being sure if it's good to say this here, but SEP should really enhance English education in México, considering how low our English level is compared to other countries, even other countries in latam. It shall have a big impact if the right efforts are really paid

OMGGGG BIENVENIDOOOOOOO!! YOU HAVE TO COME TO GUADALAJARA 🐢🐢

Hebrew ! Wow my mom is learning Hebrew too at 🏡 in México, and a cousing speak beside born language (spanish ) English, Italian, French, Arabe. I would like to speak Chinese-mandarin because these 3 languages (Spanish, English, Mandaring) are powerfull right now.

Super interesting! You do that here in Chihuahua Mexico and at most you’ll get 2. Spanish and English 😂 it’s cause we’re close to the border so English is big. Great video as always! 👍🏼

Mexico city seems beautiful and clean.

Gracias a dios decidí prepararme en este año que no entrene a la uni y ando aprendiendo inglés y japonés con el fin de abrir nuevos horizontes y conocer más gente 🙏🏻

Soy bilingüe en español/inglés. Además hablo italiano (3 años de estudio), francés (1 año de estudio) y recientemente comencé a estudiar portugués.

Do such a video in Zurich in Switzerland and you will be amazed by the average number of languages people would speak there. Same for Luxemburg and Belgium I guess.

Omg! I´m from Mexico! Que cool que vengas por acá!

How ALIVE those people are in comparison with US and Canada, just staggering ...

i love how everyone in the world speaks english

Muy cosmopolita mi ciudad de Mexico :)

I’ve been in Mexico for six months and Mexico City for two of them. I leave Saturday to Ecuador. Bitter sweet. It looks like you filmed this before the constitution day because Zocalo was closed off. But I could be wrong! I would like to be fluent in Spanish but my other language I would want to be fluent in is German. I used to live in Germany for five years growing up and always thought it was a beautiful language.

Nice video!!👍🐢

Waouh! Le français est très populaire auprès les Mexicans 😘 ❤ 🇲🇽
