But you speak one language right? You were also born in the country your still reside in? As someone who speaks two or more languages or has immigrated don’t stop talking in their native tongue after they leave their homeland. It’s more common to attract or interact with people who speak your language when living in a country that doesn’t speak your language. It’s creepy to you but not creepy to most people who are bilingual that have immigrated.
@@erins.5420 Actually I'm an immigrant and speak three languages and he would still freak me out cause he comes out of nowhere 😂 but you're right that people become a lot more approachable and talkative when you speak in their home language, that's why no one in this video called the cops on him lmao
Dude this man is in such good shape, lived healthy, has an extremely intelligent mind, and is a great human being. I cant believe hes gone, out of everybody in the world, hes one of the few good men that both deserved, and could have lived to over 100. How could this happen? Rest in heaven, you were a great man!
Yeah it was a shame, but just to say is that good body doesnt equate healthy always, i myself have a 'healthy' body but i eat mostly oiled foods and little variants of vegies fruits idk maybe metabolism keeps me from gaining weight above 60kg (im somewhat tall locally)
@@thecipher8495 bring skinny doesnt make you healthy. I have fast metabolism too and lately eat a lot of fried foods and not a lot of healthy foods, only sometimes. Id never say I’m healthy just cause I’m not overweight. Because the stuff i eat isn’t good for your body

@JMFS nobody said Americans are bad in that clip. You're just a triggered child. Also the guy making the video and behind the camera is black so the dad wasn't being racist to white people. The dad was saying the fact that this black American dude he's talking to is so fluent in African and middle eastern languages, there's no way he's American so he has to be African. And America may be majority white by a small margin, but there's still around 30-40% of the country that isn't white. Idk why you're so offended and how you misinterpreted that so badly. Also if you're American and you only speak English, then you're kinda proving the point. And your English is garbage so this is even funnier.

Families: Go to Walmart to shop for groceries and other household goods Meanwhile Laoshu: *Shopping for languages* To have another language is to possess another soul.

People in walmart: shopping Moses: Why are you running?! Edit: Rest in peace moses. The content this man brought us will always be accompanied by smiles & laughs. It's always been so much fun to watch his videos and to see how a conversation with somebody in their native language can become so engaging and welcoming. Man really had a love for language and he let us come along for the ride to watch and learn. I'm glad we have these videos, Thank you Moses.
Rest in Peace, Mouse. You will always be an inspiration to me. Thank you for being such a light - you live on through your videos and your legacy will be a lasting one!
I just found out he had passed away over year ago. Thank you for your entertainment and my condolences to your family and the people who you cared for.
No one can speak evrry languages on the earth.That means fluently . every word . Dont be Stupid. Just learn another language instead of being JEALOUS!!!
@Ahmad Sheikh-Ali everyone learns different. he may not even be able to learn any languages at uni because he has his own tehcniques that work for him..
Before universities were run for profit they were a place that inspired learning, research, and growth. A home, a prison, and a cave can be a university depending on how you look at it.
I ran into one of these today. Different scenario, but similar characters. . I was 20 feet away, with my mask in place ( you know, the COVID thing to do), and in the process of attaching the rubber straps...She let's loose with " get your mask on, put you mask on"!!! I politely said," yes. of course. Thank you". I entered the store with my wife, and waited for the opportunity. The same lady was talking to her elderly husband and started laughing about something, she looked at me and patted me on the back like i was her friend, and said, "I was laughing at what my husband just said"...I seized the moment to release a "counter Karen" response, and loudly told her " Lady, please do not touch me! You KNOW there is a PANDEMIC, and you should know better! I don't know you, or where your hand have been. Now keep you distance or I will call management"!! It felt so good to shut this old white POS Karen up, and put her wrinkled butt in it's place!
Kelvin James Cayabyab Because we don’t need to lol, English is the most important language in the world lol, we have so much influence that other people learn it aswell, the only reason we would need to learn another language is to connect with a certain culture

@@GeezMusic I am guessing you´re not an American, and I´ll tell you why; the couple in this video, they said you´re not american because americans don´t speak 5 languages. I mean how smart is someone who is living in the USA and does not even know the average number of languages americans speak? It´s also funny how that lady probably doesn´t even speak english, yet she´s living in an english speaking country criticizing americans for not speaking foreign languages to countrys they have never been to. Roughly half the world speaks only one language, and half speaks two or more. On average the average american can speak 3 languages, go figure, huh? Now, if you are an american, and you make the comment you made, than you are uneducated and therefore have uneducated friends who never learned a second language.
What high paying job. All of his languages are 3 rate. Who's going to make money where they need clean drinking water?

@Victoria Nageily You're right. When most people think of American they think of White people, but Americans are yellow, brown, black, white, all colors.
i totally love this. I've learned a few phrases in a few languages and American sign language ASL. i work in retail and i want to talk to everyone and make them feel welcomed
"Americans don't speak five languages" Yeah, you're usually right haha. Most can only speak one. Edit: I'll also point out the fact to a lot of people in the replies that misread "most" for "all" for some unknown reason. Yes SOME are multilingual, MOST are not. So if you're someone in the replies commenting "Uh, well I exist so hello there, guy" I'm clearly not referring to you. I grew up in Vegas where most people there are multilingual, whether is Spanish, tagalog or Chinese.
She was telling the girl see how he speaks Somali like. Girl. You have no. Excuse to not speak your language. Our Somali mums will shame lol. She said come look, see
I'm surprised by his Somali, his prononciation is way better than others I've heard. Considering that Somali isn't a language that you can learn online, I appreciate his dedication to learn the language.
Found the channel through another language channel and it makes me so sad thst such a transformative person and force of peace and unity passed away. This video brought me to tears bc so many immigrants come to this country and many refugees come from places like Somalia, Sudan and often times they are walking around, trying to adjust, to assimilate/settle into their new homes and in the process they make themselves small. Some cower down and just try their best to get thru their lives ...but the was this family was walking away quickly like they were worried or scared but then connected, opened up and stood a little taller when somebody they might've been trying to walk away from. Such a loss! I loved languages at one point and lost hope if learning new languages but this Channel is so inspiring. May you rest in tranquility, with God.
Miss this man😢 Today watching and hearing his voice gives me up with happy and sad tears… You were a gift to us all Moses. Making foreigners feel loved with your presence…rip to a legend… Much love from a 🇵🇭
As fellow polyglot I'm jealous and genuinely admire this man - and his confidence in testing his formidable skills with native speakers. As an American, I could just cry with joy. I know it's been said before but people who come here from other countries, now esp, must feel so isolated and unsure about how they're perceived - if not assuming they're being looked down upon altogether, that is. Just kindly reaching out to another human is rare these days, it seems, but to do so in their language...regardless of if it's warmly received or not (or even if fueled in part by wanting to hone up on your own proficiency), IMO, it's one of the most beautiful things a fellow human can do FOR THE SAKE OF humanity. And most of all, lemme say, as a black person, the departed ancestors must be beaming with pride to hear one of their own speaking our ppls' native tongues. Love these vids. #connect
When I first started learning English, I used to be afraid of what people might think of the way I speak but after awhile I stopped caring about my accent and all. He speaks Somali very well, kinda the formal stuff though. He is only missing the slang that we use often. I think he is doing it the right way by talking with native speakers, he will get better in all of the languages he speaks.
@PhArAoH KhAfrA PyRaMiD I didn't say they should; not sure where you read that. And yes, I have been to other countries and know that a person can find positive and negative treatment of immigrants all over the world. However, here in the US and esp under Trump, hatred for and hate crimes against immigrants (particularly those from certain countries) have increased. Are you not aware of that?
I love your comment so much. Also, as a black person, it makes me feel so proud because our own countrymen often pre-judge us and don’t expect this kind of exceptionalism. 💕

I'm really waiting in one of those videos for a white elderly woman to tell them to speak English cause this is America
😂😂
David Milton she swells near the on every corner waiting for whom she shall harass.
I ran into one of these today. Different scenario, but similar characters. . I was 20 feet away, with my mask in place ( you know, the COVID thing to do), and in the process of attaching the rubber straps...She let's loose with " get your mask on, put you mask on"!!! I politely said," yes. of course. Thank you". I entered the store with my wife, and waited for the opportunity. The same lady was talking to her elderly husband and started laughing about something, she looked at me and patted me on the back like i was her friend, and said, "I was laughing at what my husband just said"...I seized the moment to release a "counter Karen" response, and loudly told her " Lady, please do not touch me! You KNOW there is a PANDEMIC, and you should know better! I don't know you, or where your hand have been. Now keep you distance or I will call management"!! It felt so good to shut this old white POS Karen up, and put her wrinkled butt in it's place!

@@GeezMusic I am guessing you´re not an American, and I´ll tell you why; the couple in this video, they said you´re not american because americans don´t speak 5 languages. I mean how smart is someone who is living in the USA and does not even know the average number of languages americans speak? It´s also funny how that lady probably doesn´t even speak english, yet she´s living in an english speaking country criticizing americans for not speaking foreign languages to countrys they have never been to. Roughly half the world speaks only one language, and half speaks two or more. On average the average american can speak 3 languages, go figure, huh? Now, if you are an american, and you make the comment you made, than you are uneducated and therefore have uneducated friends who never learned a second language.

"Americans don't speak five languages" Yeah, you're usually right haha. Most can only speak one.
Edit: I'll also point out the fact to a lot of people in the replies that misread "most" for "all" for some unknown reason. Yes SOME are multilingual, MOST are not. So if you're someone in the replies commenting "Uh, well I exist so hello there, guy" I'm clearly not referring to you. I grew up in Vegas where most people there are multilingual, whether is Spanish, tagalog or Chinese.

Found the channel through another language channel and it makes me so sad thst such a transformative person and force of peace and unity passed away. This video brought me to tears bc so many immigrants come to this country and many refugees come from places like Somalia, Sudan and often times they are walking around, trying to adjust, to assimilate/settle into their new homes and in the process they make themselves small. Some cower down and just try their best to get thru their lives ...but the was this family was walking away quickly like they were worried or scared but then connected, opened up and stood a little taller when somebody they might've been trying to walk away from. Such a loss! I loved languages at one point and lost hope if learning new languages but this Channel is so inspiring. May you rest in tranquility, with God.
Such a beautiful post!

As fellow polyglot I'm jealous and genuinely admire this man - and his confidence in testing his formidable skills with native speakers. As an American, I could just cry with joy. I know it's been said before but people who come here from other countries, now esp, must feel so isolated and unsure about how they're perceived - if not assuming they're being looked down upon altogether, that is. Just kindly reaching out to another human is rare these days, it seems, but to do so in their language...regardless of if it's warmly received or not (or even if fueled in part by wanting to hone up on your own proficiency), IMO, it's one of the most beautiful things a fellow human can do FOR THE SAKE OF humanity. And most of all, lemme say, as a black person, the departed ancestors must be beaming with pride to hear one of their own speaking our ppls' native tongues. Love these vids. #connect
When I first started learning English, I used to be afraid of what people might think of the way I speak but after awhile I stopped caring about my accent and all. He speaks Somali very well, kinda the formal stuff though. He is only missing the slang that we use often. I think he is doing it the right way by talking with native speakers, he will get better in all of the languages he speaks.
@PhArAoH KhAfrA PyRaMiD I didn't say they should; not sure where you read that. And yes, I have been to other countries and know that a person can find positive and negative treatment of immigrants all over the world. However, here in the US and esp under Trump, hatred for and hate crimes against immigrants (particularly those from certain countries) have increased. Are you not aware of that?
