I’m Spanish and I feel like Greek sounds more like Portuguese or Galician, hahha

if you realise we speak english in irish it makes total sense lol

Modern hebrew was made by using shoreshim which were all established long ago and just figureed out where needed based on those roots which can be the same as Arabic did from the common Phoenician but definitely doesnt make it in any way "based off Arabic". Besides loan words which come from infite places. correct

Only if you’re an ignorant they sound similar.

2:36 why "ofc it's Africa😃"?

Plz make video on impact of Arabic on Urdu as well ❤

English: I like cats Toki Pona: I like small animals. mi pona lipu Japanese: Cat likeable. 猫好き

6:35 Malay was the language of trade in and around Indonesia. The VOC saw it as usefull and thus adapted it. I have read some books writen by Dutch authors who lived in the Dutch-Indies at the end of the colonial ara and they make fun a lot about people owning a farm* who are not able to speak malay and the local language of the island where the stories play. Dutch colonials truly looked down upon the newcomers who could not speak the local languages. There are a lot of online Dutch-Malay dictionaries, which was helpfull reading one of those books.😂 *I do not get the exact translasion of plantage.

8:14 As a native Swiss I disagree to that. Me personal would say: De Fründ, woni immer mit gang go sufe. Don't know if people agree.

3:45 Fun Fact: The spot in the background picture is called Surrein. It's in the Alps and very close to where I grew up. Also there they are speaking an other Language called "Rhaeto-Romanic". A language only 40,000 People (Me too) speak. Good luck with that ^^

In Belgian we call it flemish its a sublanguage from dutch. It sounds quite a bit different, we sometimes joke abt duch having an accent especially the g lol😂

for %90 of the arabic loanwords in persian there are persian alternatives. for Esm there is Naam. Awwal Nokhost etc

English: The man forgot his umbrella at home Anglish: The male house his rainshade where he is housed too

8:07 it's from Latin videre

God we really need a spelling reform

Native: Indonesian Easy: English Hard: Finding best way to answer to the question: in which part of Bali the country Indonesia is?

2:19 ...

Belgium speaks Flemish, not Dutch.

lol you have to cover Guyanese and Trinidadian patois Aswell as Grenadian...

but why franca? is it because one time long ago, people speaks one language that is french?

Resources for learning flemish?

Had a giraffe having a butchers at this, must go Sweeney after me

Learning Arabic in Iran's schools is mandatory, maybe that's why it is the most hated class in Iran's school. At the end no one learn a single Arabic phrase at the school in Iran.

I like both accent

Doric is spoken in the north east of Scotland. eg: fit = what; fae = from; how= why; live = stay or abide; Quine = young woman, Loon = young man.

Wait wait, the "dumneavoastra" is quite similar to something Italian. Though, admittedly we don't use it nowadays and it's a form relegated to jokes and irony. We have "Vossia", a contraction of "Vossignoria" or "Vostra Signoria" which, I believe, means the exact same as the Romanian word and it's supposed to show reverence. Interesting!

Every one understands hindi 😅

Why isn't alchemist or war highlighted?

I’d love you to look at Kölsch spoken in Köln, to a non speaker it seems more related to Flemish or Dutch than German.

The video is interesting, however it falls short in showing the diversity of the Dutch language. Would be good if you could add Surinamese Dutch. As of today, the dialect is beginning to be recognized a valid dialect of the language and it deserves its place on this very narrow and Eurocentric table.

Abkhazia is Georgia

Turkish seems an easy language with many Arabic words like Persian …

If you were to tell me you were from Canada, just based on your native accent...I'm gonna be honest, I wouldn't have believed you 😂

One tip: when you’re saying a word with an "a" sound, don't go so much to the "au," but do a bit more "ahh." As in "bat," or "carrot."

Just say, "Right, right then. Absolutely brilliant. Aw, that's just lovely, innit?" a couple times while imagining yourself as Tom Scott or Gordon Ramsay and you should be fine.

As a Kurd i Speak Kurdish, Arabic, English, Greek, German and some Italian…after speaking those languages and putting them in categories then I realised that Kurdish language is not easy!

Geez is the mother language

Near-native pronunciation for me is more or less easy. Like a parrot, sounding OK, but without understanding ;-) The idea that helps most is that you must realise that most likely not any sound remains the same. So all vowels shift, all consonants are a bit different, the melody of sentences can be very different. And even the sounds you make when searching for words can be very different 'uh uh uh'. Your 'British' was, in my eyes (ears), for a too high percentage the same as your Canadian. Give all sounds a kick. And enjoy.

أنا أريد تعلم لغه النواتل و يوكاتان مايا لكن للأسف ما اعرف من وين أتعلمها

Indonesian is by far far the easiest no bs pronunciation no verb conjugations no plurals

I'm from the US and I'm interested in learning Indonesian and Malay! I think BI and BM are different standards of the same language. Each with their dialects that are derived from each standard. While there are some differences, they are mutually intelligible, just like Spanish and Portuguese. I'm really interested in these languages, countries, and cultures, so I have a good opinion of them!

Greater Polish and Lesser Polish are very similar

The dutch language is comparable to a slavic language in the sense that the belgian variant is vastly different. We can understand eachother but we got a large vocabulary difference.

Soviel ich weiss in Griechenland besteht dieselbe Situazion: das Nebeneinander von 2 gleichrangigen Varianten derselben Mutterprache.

I live in Southeastern Ohio, and have met persons who know some of the Shawnee language. I am grateful that you speak on behalf of these people, and so many others.
