Lamont! You have absolutely blown my mind!! Thank you for the very kind shout out chap 🙏. What a decent human you are. Keep us updated with how you find Spanish 😊

In Portugal, we have an expression for what you did in most of this and the previous videos: "encher chouriços" (directly translates to "filling chouriços"). We use it whenever we have to wait for something or someone and, during that wait, carry out useless or unimportant activities.

Oh am I looking forward to the days of French, Swedish 'n' Spanish! Hopefully things pan out well and you and your son have a great time in Mexico. Having a history with french will definitely come in handy and I look forward to hearing what you make of castellano.

I started watching your channel shortly after beginning my study of Mexican Spanish. Wow, the baby is now 3 years old. I've been stalking you for longer than I realized. Bienvenido a norteamérica.

Thank you for taking us on this motivating journey! Also, thank you so much for sharing a small channel about language learning. They're gaining hundreds of subs thanks to you, and I appreciate your dedication for finding non biased reviews. I keep recommending your channel and it keeps getting better!! 😊

Yes! I've been studying Spanish for 2 months now and I love it! Can't wait to get your tips for learning it better!

I'm planning to get back into Mexican Spanish next year, so it's super exciting to find out that you're going to be learning it too! I've just recently started following your channel, but it's been super motivating, and I'm hoping I can keep learning even more from you now that I'll be studying one of the same languages.

¡Qué padre! Looking forward to seeing your thoughts about the language. I’ve been studying the language for almost 3 years now and it’s never gotten boring! Plus there are tons of native speakers who don’t already speak English.

That was fun, well done Ewan!

Ooooh, I’m excited. I started Spanish 3 months ago, having a blast! Good luck! So much nice media in that language too.

Looking forward to your imminent collaborations with Spanish With Nate and Real Fast Spanish! :) KZfaq showed me the story learning review from Matt Brooks-Green and I was super impressed - instant subscribe. His presence is great, his review was really insightful and helpful, and he gives you a clear sense of what his experience was with the course. Looking forward to much more from him. Also looking forward to your Spanish content!

I never would have guessed. I hope you all have fun!

I've seen your channel come up in my recommendations (along with a tonne of other language learning channels) but today I finally clicked on one and it made me laugh so much! Then I watched some others and they made me laugh too, keep up the good work I am subbed.

We are so much invested in your language learning because we can live vicariously through you. 😇

You made a very interesting two-part riddle! Loved it! I will follow your videos though I am not at all interested in any Spanish anymore. I've tried "Castellano" but, but, didn't become an enthusiast, I'm sorry to say - hope however that you will love your studies, it helps so much. All the best for your travel plans of course!

This was a fun video, thanks for the reveal!

que tengas suerte en tu proceso de aprendizaje!

I’m so exited! Considering that I’m learning Mexican Spanish. I feel like this will be a major boost for me. I would highly recommend following Mike Ben on KZfaq. He’s a smaller creator. But he taught himself Spanish fluently in less than a year. And his channel is filled with helpful stuff. Congrats Lamont!

Pense que iba a ser latin. Bueno bienvenido sea, espero que disfrutes aprendiendo espanol!

One of my favourite things about your channel is watching how your approach to language learning evolves over the course of your time on KZfaq, so I'm super excited to see how you apply all you've learnt to a new language!! Have fun with Spanish!

Thank you! I'm looking forward to any new Spanish content you might make, enjoy Mexico!

What an excellent choice! I've been studying Spanish for a few years and I've also chosen to focus on Mexican Spanish. Not all of the apps/resources I use are Mexican, but that doesn't really matter that much as most of the native content I consume is... If I could only suggest a single book to get it would be the classic "Madrigal's Magic Key to Spanish". As for courses/apps, there are many good ones for Spanish in particular. I currently use Busuu as my main app.

Spanish is also my TL so I hope to see you posting progress so I can get your input as a common sense check!

Well played, good sir. 👏👏👏

I was watching the runner. I didn't notice the flag...LOL. Well done, mate! Och lycka till!

I've got beginner Spanish I'm working in with story learning and then bought intermediate as well but haven't gotten there yet. Its fun! Nice to have a chapter to focus on at a time and lots to read even as a beginner.

Thanks! Love your channel.

Ah, yes. I hope we get some spanish content and tips from this. I am learning spanish and it is awesome to know that that's the language you will be learning

This is excellent! I’ve been learning Spanish for a while now, I love it!!! I hope you get to go to Mexico!!!

Have fun with your new language! They have amazing food over there!

Only you could make a video like this and not be completely hate-able for it! Looking forward to seeing your progress in Mexican Spanish since it’s a non-native language that we have in common.

Because I always learn something new. Because it's fun. And because I signed up for Olly's Uncovered JUST before watching the previous video! Thank you!

Ayyy welcome to Spanish 🎉 it’s very fun here

I'm in Mexico and I never thought it would be here. Awesome! It will be fun to say the least.

I couldn't wait for this video to come

That's super cool! I actually have family in Mexico and I wasn't to learn Mexican Spanish but I struggle to find resources that aren't targeted towards Castilian Spanish here in the UK (also I've been sort of distracted by a lot of Italian music and I've kind of started learning Italian instead - I mean it'll be easier to learn Spanish with a good knowledge of Italian anyway). But regardless, a list or collection of resources specifically targeted at Mexican Spanish would be great to have if you are able to compile one throughout your journey

I wish to see your study routine of mexican Spanish. Can't wait!

Maaaan I was completely wrong! ^^ Well done on building up suspense like that. Have fun and best of luck with Spanish!

Que te vaya bien con el español. Yo tenía alguna esperanza de que fuera un idioma más minoritario. También me hubiera encantado que aprendieras el japonés, como lo estoy haciendo yo desde hace tres meses. Aún así, será interesante observar tu progreso en un idioma que ya domino.

For Spanish learning, there is a Dreaming Spanish you should check out. Many videos are from Spain’s Spanish, but they got few from Mexican Spanish too and I think it is growing more too

Buena suerte!

¡Buena suerte!

I was indeed dead wrong but not disappointed! Ánimo con el aprendizaje!

Well played mate!

Great reveal haha. Yes! Español es mi idioma favorito. If you end up learning it, you’ll have a lot of fun!

La mejor decisión que pudiste tomar. Espero que disfrutes mucho tu aprendizaje del español! 🇲🇽 De Olly Richards hasta hay un libro "101 conversations in Mexican Spanish". Vas a encontrar un chingo de contenido divertido.

Woohooo Mexico is fucking great. I'm An Aussie (from Adelaide) living in California, and speak 2 languages fluently and have been learning Spanish for like 2 years now (mainly because my Partner now lives in Spain and I go there all the time) but also because Spanish is so commonly used everywhere in the US and I want to travel to Mexico more as well! So glad to hear you're learning Spanish, the world's most useful language imo. It's spoken in so many different countries and I hear it everywhere all the time. PS. I recommend Dreaming Spanish for learning Spanish.

As someone learning Mexican Spanish who found your channel and used your tips to apply it to Mexican Spanish the fact that you’re learning Mexican Spanish is la neta wey!

Dreaming Spanish is a similar concept to Storylearning that Olly once featured on his channel. I reckon you should check them out, they may be very useful tool for your Spanish journey ¡Que emocionado que aprendes castellano!

Mexico is the country I was born in. Me hace muy feliz que aprendas nuestro idioma, no te arrepentiras

Master story teller

I have been learning Spanish for 1 year, and I want to reccomend the channel and platform Dreaming Spanish. It is the best thing a language learner can ever find. I know you’ll love it since you like input

In addition to Language Transfer and Dreaming Spanish, I recommend the Leer en Español series put out by Santillana. It is too difficult for most beginners (at least if they're English speakers), but you probably have enough language-learning experience to tackle it early. The easiest books (start with level 1, skip their earlier level which is made for the school market and not nearly as good) limit themselves to 400 different words and don't use much past tense or subjunctive, but other than that they're real Spanish, and are actual exciting stories that are quite enjoyable. There are something like 7 books at that first level, then just as many at the next (700 different words per book). They're Spanish rather than Mexican Spanish, but the differences aren't significant enough to spoil the value of these truly excellent readers.

I don't remember if you've ever talked about the Language Transfer courses but in my opinion his Spanish course is the best starting point. It's not immersion style which you might prefer but for me it was life changing.

😂Ahhh🙈😂got it wrong. Love the chaotic energy as always! Haha the ending got me lol. Ahhh that’s so cool tho, I speak Mexican Spanish 🤌😊. Hope you have fun learning it!

As a kid, I studied Swedish (I don't remember much but I'd like to get back into it one day). As a teenager I studied and got fluent in French. And now as an adult, I'm tackling Spanish. I also had a fling with Russian on Duolingo at some point, like you. It's like your channel is tailored to me or something. Anywho, good luck with the Spanish learning!

Well at least it's a useful language that so many people speak. I wish I was learning it instead of a more rare one. But then again better to learn cause your passionate then because it's a more popular language

Wow!! That's so cool ☺

This is my excuse to finally learn Spanish too. So much of the world speaks it. It’s time

Never would have guessed that! That’s exciting! Im excited for you on this new language journey 😊 If I may ask what was the completion your son was doing?

Spanish is an awesome language and I hope you get to experience all it has to offer!

Bienvenido hermano

I saw the Mexican flag the second time I watched the video, but thought it cheap to go back and change my answer 😅🤣 I’m also studying Spanish and you will love it! The music is so good

I literally never would’ve guessed and it’s SUCH a common one.🤦‍♀️ It was too close to see!😅

Yay you will love it !! It opens up so much of the world to you, and you will never get bored because even when you reach a high level you will still be learning about different accents and slang 😅 It’s also so much easier to learn than French, my sister gave up on learning languages after a bad experience with French but now she learns this language and loves it! (No offence to French, I learn it myself ❤)

Welcome the Spanish!!! It's fun and easy (and you don't have to learn a new writing system). Excellent choice.

Aw, darn! I was all set to join him, but I already speak that, BUT (more signs from above?), my brother Jonno (yes, he of Crazy Bastard Sauce fame) has just this month signed up with ME to teach HIM specifically Mexican Spanish! EL WOWO!

I am proud that I got the Language right, even if I was a bit off with the country!

Welcome to the family 🇪🇸

I knew it was spanish because of the top comment, bit of a spoiler but im very happy about it! Sure you might not stick at it but if you do, youll meet many a wonderful person while you learn😁

from a FIRST veteran good luck to your son and good luck to you too with making that trek over the border haha

Re: the sequence of meaningful coincides, the word you're looking for is synchronicity

¡Olé! Bienvenido a Team Spanish🙌

¡Estoy tan emocionado!

Very good

With all the french you already know it's going to be a walk in the park, or almost. Good choice, not a language I speak but good choice and very popular one.

Being a Romance language, I think your previous French experience can help. Good luck.

Can confirm the quality of Matts videos, defo check him out! ♥

¡Español es muy divertido!

Youll never be short of series and films on Netflix. I’ve been learning Spanish for 2 years and don’t regret it. La casa de papel is incredible.

Fabulous video, well played. Since you erroneously chose Spanish instead of Dutch, I am heartbroken not to be winning the prize. However I consol myself with the thought I have already read Chocolat and The Kite Runner(?) I am also looking forward to your language journey in Spanish. I watch all your stuff, even the land in Scotland one. *rolls eyes * PS still time to swap to Dutch x

Brilliant! I really hope you manage to make the trip work, but even if you don’t it’s fantastic motivation. Is your son interested in learning along with you? You might have mentioned this already and I missed it, but do you mind me asking when the trip is, if it goes ahead? Roughly six months away, or a year for example? I’m curious to see the difference, if any, having a deadline will make to your approach.

Promise you will video every day in the language! Please?

I recommend No Hay Tos for my favorite podcast about Mexican Spanish

Hahaha I remember saying it was Tijuana (the city I'm from) in Mexico just for the hell of it. I sort of got it. Well, hope you enjoy the street food over here. And as we say in Mexico, "Ayayay!"

Btw, I don’t know if you have a video on this, but why did you start speaking Swedish? What was the initial motivation?

¡Bienvenidos, homie!

It is my impression that the differences between Mexican Spanish and 'proper' Spanish were less than the differences between US English and British English, apart from the use of 'vosotros'. Americans have lots of vocabulary that are different to British words.

Oh, what a let down! Personally, I couldn't possibly be less interested in Spanish. But I'm sure you'll have fun. I do appreciate, as always, the discount codes, your excellent reviews, and today letting us know about Matt's channel. 👍

I'm based in Melbourne, does the book fair you've referenced in this video and the previous come here? Cheers

I was hoping it would be Esperanto. Or klingon.

Damn, was really hoping it'd be Inari.

1:55 your winking is funny 😂🤣😂🤣

Soy tan weon, i looked at the flag, but I thought it was for "the meme" that it's similar, great choice!

6:47 Australia is a contineeeeeeennnt

I am just relieved the new channel mentioned in the video isn't the guy who shows "evidence" about why all the KZfaq polyglots are fake whilst repeating the same thing throughout the video. This one deserves to surpass the views of that one without a doubt.

I was completely off. 🤣 Well, good luck.

Spanish will be a piece of cake now that you speak French. Honestly, just go all in for some months and you will be hugely rewarded. Spanish has amazing literature, music, and cinema, plus it is one of the most spoken languages in the world.

aaah, Now I feel like I missed huge opportunity. I google translated the Latin sentence at the end of the video saying "days of swedish and galician" and thought: galician is not on storylearning, only spanish, so maybe it is what spain was called during time when latin was actually spoken. I thought it was basically given out with that sentence, and that I am only gonna look like idiot point out something obvious. ( watched the video within first hour, there were barely any comments.)
