Yeah, lol.

I LOVE YOU MAN

facts

As easy as that

Haha, they were amazing. They are polyglots already.

More like South Indians. I am from the north, and i can only speak 2 languages.

Similar to the Philippines. The further away from Manila, the more people will speak a minimum of three languages. Especially the Southern part of the country.

@@vashvikjamalta2542 sad

I am from East india, i speak 5 languages as of now

Most of educated Indians knows atleast 3 languages and plus

@@anishs5652 I don't think so I saw many old people they know 4 to 5 language

He didn't speak it at all. Just some rehearsed phrases.

@@guitarist_covers Bro I didn't even expected him to know such a language exist

@@noormohammad6227bro he’s not stupid he knows so many languages even if he can’t speak it and he has been to kerala and he knows tamil. Tamil and Malayalam are very similar languages

Thanks for the positive words. I am always trying to find new challenges.

@@WouterCorduwener 29 languages holly shit tgat astonishing

​@WouterCorduwener waiting for day when you stumble upon someone who can speak sanskrit

Only 6 of all these languages are actually useful😂

Took me 7 years to learn Tamil + Malayalam + Telugu + Hindi + English + Marathi and Punjabi (and now learning Bengali)

​@@nikneo7363really whyyy😁

​@@nikneo7363I know five, Marathi hindi telgu Gujrati and english

​@@angelo8254because more people speak.. chinese Hindi Arabic... English Spanish Portuguese ( more people because of colonization)

Thanks a lot, well I need to improve it haha.

@@WouterCorduwener Mate, you should have given her the money right after Malayalam, it wasn't a conversation at all (from a Malayalee here).

Ithu beginners nde polum alla asking another question he won't answer because he only by hearted some words

5 bro? he speaks like 30 to 40 that is a talent not 5.

it's important to note that it's a wildly different thing to speak different unrelated languages than it is to speak multiple related ones. not taking away from your talent, but maithili and awadhi are quite similar because they have their origins in bihar itself, and both of them are very closely related to hindi. same with hindi and punjabi. side note: I'm maithil too! hum kani mani bajaye chhi maithili, ottay fluent naahi chhi hum par koshish kareye chhi bajaye kay 😅

maithili and awadhi are dialets right

@@addynagar827 the distinction between a language and a dialect is quite faint, and some languages are considered just dialects of other languages by many linguists. officially both awadhi and maithili are separate languages but yes, they are very closely related to other languages of their area

Bro, are you from Bihar? I can also speak Hindi, maithili, bhojpuri, thatte and English, a little bit of Bangali and Punjabi.

As a Tamil speaker, I find Kannada to be more difficult than Telugu or Malayalam or Hindi

@@KiriAatam ohh...I was told that Telugu and Kannada are very different from Tamil & Malayalam

@@shasyendra Different, yes. I felt Telugu is much closer to Tamil. Tamils interact with a lot of Telugus during college or at work as Telugus are a significant minority in Tamil Nadu. Telugu movies are widely popular too even a decade or 2 back. Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have river sharing disputes and both have banned movies of each other state which was revoked only in the recent years.

​@@KiriAatam For tamil speakers, Kannada is the easiest language. Even it is easier than malayalam. The gender rules in Tamil and Kannada is similar to each other.

@@aravindhrajgowda2446 Could be. During my UG in a university in Tamil Nadu, almost half of the batch was from AP. Many of our friends were Telugus and we learnt each other’s language slowly. I did not have any opportunity to talk to a Kannadiga during my stay in India. When I went abroad, I made friends with Kannadigas, they were such a treat. But, we interacted in English throughout. They spoke English with such a clear diction, I found it hard to not get envious of them.

Pretty much everyone in india speaks 2 but a lot of speak speak 3 languages and my mom can speak fluently at least 5 and can speak broken more so you're not wrong ha ha

Yes, many of us learn 3 languages at school in India, and if people have lived in different places/cities, they will easily know 4-5 languages.

Correct...we speak so many languages that even we sometimes have trouble understanding each other...I faced this in New Zealand (where I met other Indians whose languages I don't speak, like Telugu). Our solution: speak in English 😂

You know English and Hindi too

@@bibliophile5700 yes, i speak English, but i don't speak Hindi.

@@MadhanBhavani why?

@@MadhanBhavani where are you from?

@@bibliophile5700 I'm originally from Chennai, India. Not all Indians speak Hindi; in the South, you'll find most of us don't speak it.

Yeah also it was hilarious that he asked -Sen Turkce konusuyor musun? and the guy responded -Yoo

@@muratakburakma haha definitely 😅🤣

Bende turkce konusuyorum. Oryada 1 sene durdum. And speak English.Как многих узбеков знаю русский да не очень но. Annengxaseyo . Mannaso pangabsimnida. This was Korean. And my mother language uzbek

I am am glad that you enjoy the concent. Please let me know if there is any specific concept that you like.

Well, I don't count Tamil as a language that I speak, but I am learning it.

Obrigado!

Thanks for the kind words.

If you can speak Marathi then you can speak Konkani as well. Right?

​​​@@atharvzemse6599sorry to butt in, but from what i have observed about Maharashtrian Marathis - i live in Mumbai in a Marathi-dominated area - not all Marathi speakers speak Konkani. Many can understand Konkani, but they can't necessarily converse. This is true even for "native" speakers, i.e. people whose mother tongue is Marathi. It's even less common for people like me, who speak Marathi, not as a mother tongue but by virtue of being a Mumbaikar, to also speak Konkani. This is mainly bcoz I am exposed to Marathi but not to Konkani. I think most Goa Marathis can speak both tho

Third language is largely applicable in non-Hindi states, Hindi states generally go for Sanskrit as third subject instead of their own language or other scheduled languages.

No, second language is the state language and third language is Hindi.

@@sarathkumars7962 maybe different state by state but for me it was like what i stated above

@@varram3488 you from?

@@sarathkumars7962 telangana (maybe it depends on govenment vs private schools)

He bullshits his way into concincing him he knows the language, just like wouter does by memorizing the same three phrases for each language. No different

Except most of the languages he knows he can hold a conversation thoroughly? He’s not a fake polyglot he’s legit. He was just in a video with Xiaomao this past week

Exactly! It's so pissing off when monolingual people are amazed at this guy, not knowing he doesn't know more than 2 languages. And then we get all those comments like "wow really amazing but [insert mother tongue] ... needs a bit of work lets say" lmao

Honestly, these types of videos are so wròng, giving $ to x or y for speaking languages, pfff, one should work hard to get a småll amount of money for food and rent, and not get it for free basically - anyways, one can imagine that ppl that say they speak many languages aren’t fluent / native speaker level in all languages they say they speak, so it’s probably A1 / A2 level in most and B1 level in some and fluent only in 2 or 3 languages, so I would say Dutch / English / German are spoken more fluently, and the others at A1 to B1 level, because learning a language means one has to learn at least 10.000 base words if one wants to get to a native speaker level, which can be extremely overwhelming if one wants to learns many languages...

Like, I have over 50 languages on my list of languages I want to know and improve, and I can understand many of the similar ones, and I am advanced level in Dutch (over 8.000 base words) and writer level in English (60k to 100.000 words or maybe more) and intermediate level in Norwegian / German / Swedish and Portuguese and close to an intermediate level in French and native speaker level in Spanish (over 11.000 base words to 15.000+ words) and beginner level in Welsh / Old Norse / Breton / Icelandic / Gothic / Norn / Hungarian / Cornish / Galician / Catalan / Gallo / Danish / Irish / Slovene / Luxembourgish / Faroese / Limburgish / Manx / Occitan / Latin / Scottish Gaelic / Limburgish / Guernsey / Ripuarian / Italian and the other Dutch-based / Italian-based / German-based / French-based etc languages and the 3 Frisian languages (West Frisian / North Frisian / East Frisian) and Scots Doric and Yola and the other pretty languages that are on my list!

We waren in Eden . . . We vallen naar beneden . . . Een eindeloze vrijeval door de lucht . . . Daar heerste de regen . . . Zoals de eerste dag van lente . . . We wachten af voor hoelang hij duurt . . .

Samee😂

Lol true 😂 I generally mix bengali, maithili & hindi

True! Plenty of people do this in Mumbai..English, Hindi, Marathi, Gujarati are the most common...I even throw in Tamil for my Mum...and she and I never have problems understanding each other 😂

Good tip!

@@littlebrit glad to hear that!

Thanks so much for the feedback, I appreciate. I really want to improve my Mandarin.

hes a scam. he repeats the same sentences in some languages that he leaned by heart. i like music, the culture, i speak 29 languages bla bla. this is not speaking

​@@criff85 Yeah He has a terrible Turkish, he probably wouldn't pass if he took the a1 exam. He seemed to memorize and repeat certain patterns in many languages.

@@criff85 disagree with you. Although it's true what you say that Wouter says basic things in many languages, however, watching him having a conversation and understanding what people say is: really absolutely amazing 😍 !!! It's way way more than repeating the same things. I watched him speaking French (my native language) and Wouter is pretty good ! He makes a few grammatical errors but that's expected. Wouter is actually a phenomenon in my view !

You move with 29 people in yourself. So crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@oliviermuvandimwe9404 I don't think he's fluent in all 29 languages, however he's an absolutely amazing polyglot !

swiss german

go learn German. If you don't understand that

@@fatih24681012141618 Maybe you should go learn English if you don't understand the meaning of "German is my mother tongue". Und ich habe nicht gesagt, dass ich es nicht verstehe. Aber es ist ein Dialekt, bei dem ich genauer hinhören musste, da ich Schweizerdeutsch vor über 20 Jahren, in der 6. Klasse, zuletzt gehört habe und die Frau damals hat auch noch anders gesprochen als der Mann in dem Video.

​@@fatih24681012141618did you even read the comment?

Tio NE estas la germana, sed alia lingvo. Nu ĉar en la angla ĝia nomo estas Sviss GERMAN, NE igas ĝin germana ;)

It's not a big deal actually..extremely linguistically diverse country so u can't afford to be monolingual, esp if u live/work in a place that's 1) not your hometown or 2) the prevalent language there is not your mother tongue (the language u speak with your family by virtue of belonging to a certain place or community - Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, etc) In places like Mumbai, it's extremely rare to find a person who can't speak - or at least understand- at least 3 Indian languages. The most common are Marathi, Gujarati, and Hindi, followed by Punjabi, Marwari, Urdu, Kutchi, Sindhi, Kannada, Tulu, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Konkani...the list is pretty long 😂Add English to the mix and u get educated urban Indians working white-collar jobs speaking 4 at a minimum right there
