That’s actually incredibly admirable. I don’t think a player who speaks a different language should have to learn English, but I think it’s super cool he wanted to do this to better connect with fans.

Yes! My grandfather taught himself German when he was deployed and he taught himself English when he came to the States. He’s a big fan and I showed him this interview. He was very impressed and proud.

I’m Kenyan and I know exactly how difficult and amazing English is once you can get your point across without having to think it in another language first 😅

He is such a handsome young man!!! You have to be pretty damn smart to be able to pick English up like that after just immersion. Maybe he's taking private lessons too. I don't know. But boy that's bravery to be able to get up and do that.

Maybe they are? Most US folks don't go on camera to boast how they're trying to learn more than the 1 language we just barely grasp, lol - especially when most people in other countries know 2-6 languages.

@@notorioustoriis the irony in him calling the other person stupid? That would only be ironic if we’re assuming the replied commenter isn’t multilingual. I think that it’s definitely valid for American Sports players to learn the language. You wouldn’t be able to get a job in Japan if you didn’t speak basic Japanese, nor would you be able to in Germany without knowing some German

Japanese to English and Spanish to English are completely different. Spanish is much more similar to English. This is honestly a very ignorant comment, as someone that has been studying and practicing Japanese for few years now.

@@Awstreamerbtw I’ve lived in Japan. Better is subjective, although I would agree that they do have a better school system in a lot of ways. But that doesn’t matter anyway. Most people in Japan don’t speak English. Not sure what you’re trying to say. They have a good schooling system so they all can speak English? That doesn’t make sense. Especially outside of Tokyo, there is far less English. And ohtani is from Oshu. I’ve never been to Oshu, but I bet they arent speaking a lot of English 😂
