¡Espectacular! Ahora tengo curiosidad de cómo habría funcionado con rumano, francés y catalán. 😯
Now I'm curious about how much a romanian, a catalonian and a french would have understood...
Norbert, idealnie by było jakby jeszcze pojawiał się angielski odpowiednik zgadywanego słowa, tak dla rozwiania wątpliwośc. Nigdy tak na serio nie uczyłem się żadnego z języków w tym materiale (trochę transmisji meczów włoskich i hiszpańskich w ich językach i duuużo komparatystyki ze znanymi językami), a udało zgadnąć (chyba) wszystko poza skorpionem, jeśli ostatnim słowem mógł być, żal czy żałoba. Świetny materiał i czekam na więcej języków germańskich, a przede wszystkim skandynawskie (może old norse?).
I absolutely loved this episode. Muchas gracias por hacer este video. 😀👍
@@Kalifornya040605 creo que más dicícil, español e italiano son similares en muchos aspectos, peró para hacer hay multiples variaciones.
Muito bom a maneira que o Luke fala. Bem didático. Talvez não tenha entendido tanto se fosse outra pessoa falando de qualquer jeito.
When someone who speaks Latin gathers Spanish,Portuguese and Italian speakers.He looks like a grandfather when he gathers his grandchildren.
Hahaha, and I do a pretty funny grandfather voice too!
@@ScorpioMartianus You did an amazing job,a really nice latin.
YES!!!!
This is so freaking cool!! Next do Old Church Slavonic and Slavic speakers or Old Norse with Nordic Speakers!
@@ScorpioMartianus You were so good! Thank you!
Latin: grãtiãs
Spanish: gracias
Italian: grazie
Portuguese: *O B R I G A D O*
Grato, também serve!
Grato, graças, gratidão, agradeço ou agradecido existe também.
Graças is also a word but obrigado/a is more so used in the context of thank you
"garças" a Deus
Tessellation I don’t know if it’s true, but I have already heard that we say “obrigado” to give a sense that once you did a favor for me, I am obligated (obrigado) to do a favor for you too. It’s a kind of giving back.
As an English speaker who knows none of these languages, I'm shocked at how easy it is to pick up on the general concept of what's being discussed. It really is a small world
It is as long as you stay within the Indo-European family. Once you jump out of it you understand nothing :P.
Probably to do with the Norman influence, or French influence on modern English. Old English or even middle English doesn't transfer over very well. As languages branched off they kept some lone words but the pronunciation maybe different.
Fun fact. "English" is 30% Latin. Most English words have their etymology from the language.
@@jayclarke777 This is the sort of thing that people like to say but it's a sort of "half truth". A significant portion of English words do come from Latin/French. However, the vast majority of words that people use in their every-day life are of Germanic origin.
Words like "hand, house, water, man, dog" etc. are of Germanic origin.
Words like "defenestrate, auditorium, lecture" are of Latin/French origin.
@@johanneswestman935 So what's the half-lie?
Latin is not a dead language. It has evolved into Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and other romance languages. I liked the introduction twisting the names in latin. Gustavus, Lindae, and Isidorum.
English imported more than 50% of its vocabulary from Latin just changing the way they pronounce Latin words
Latinos conseguem se entender dependendo do vocabulário usado.
Latīnus nekwis est mortuos! Solom in universitātibus akwā monasteriīs abskondit. Mortuos sum tamen. Kwis sum?
usually represents the lesser used & bigger words in english too@@PaoloLeoncini
Actually the Romanians speak the closest language to latin, because latin was one of the many language dialects that the DACIANS (Romanians ancestors) had. There are artefacts that the Vatican have, and they stated that the Dacians spoke this language with more than 10.000 yrs Bc.
As a russian, I understand:
0% Italian
0% Spanish
0% Portuguese
0% Latin
INCORRECT !
Russian is an indo-European language too, just like Latin.
sestra in russian means sister in Latin (and ENglish).
@@goofygrandlouis6296 but Russian is slavic and Latin is romance. Similarities are far fetched.
@@jameeztherandomguy5418 That division happened after.
Iranian, Sanskrit, Russian and Latin all have a common ancestor language.
Look it up.
But you've understood latin?
If you speak English, you understand some of each. Much of the language is Germanic, which uses a lot of Latin
This guy looks like a roman citizen transported in time, but now he just accepts reality and works as tech support
LoL!!!
Rectissime!!!
He needs one of those ridiculous bowl haircuts and he's set
Thats hilarious lol! An ancient roman would make for a priceless interview.
Every time I hear “recte” or “bene” in Luke’s voice it sounds like a sound bite.
I swear, if you're a native speaker of any of these languages, you can understand all of them. This is amazing, I feel so powerful. (From Portugal btw)
Really? I'm from Spain and I don't understand what he is saying
I’m L2 for all 3 and it was fascinating. I was anticipating the “alacrán” commentary before it even happened and I was on the fence between avô and idoso before our Brazilian friend chose the latter. 🤔 🤣
@@tick_tack te hace falta mas vocabulario, yo también soy español y es verdad que al que habla latin es dificil entenderle, pero muchas palabras si eres habil puedes relacionarlas y saber de que esta hablando. Yo acerté todas las palabras y al que habla portugues le entendi al 95% mientras que a la italiana 70% o así.
@@tick_tack nunca di clases de latin pero sobretodo los adjetivos son muy similares, los verbos si que cambian mas.
@@tick_tackI speak Mexican Spanish and I understood most of what he said. I guess it depends on how you were raised, for example I grew up learning Spanish English and some French.
1. If they could read the caption, it would have been easier for them
2. If Luke used ecclesiastical pronunciation, it would have been piece of cake for them, and especially for Linda
3. If Luke used Latin spoken in IV century, probably they would have understood him better than each other.
This was a very interesting experiment!
Yeah I got so shocked when he said laetitiae. I've only heard it in Ecclesiastical pronunciation. It sounded SO odd in classical, I would have never recognized the word if it wasn't for the writing.
Makes total sense.
@@vincentloutkovnguyen1428 hey! would you mind explaining a little bit what's the difference between the two ? I've never learnt latin in class and I'm kinda interested ! :)
@@alexgomez002 I have also never learned latin in class, I've mainly gotten an interest in it since I'm catholic and attend a latin Mass.
The classical pronunciation is a pretty recent attempt of restoring latin to how the romans allegedly would have pronounced latin at around the time of Christ. It is very harsh and every letter is pronounced quite literally (lack of a better word). Most noticable differences in classical pronunciation:
1. All C's are pronounced as K's (so Vincent is pronounced as Vinkent)
2. All G's are hard (so all G's are pronounced like G in Golf)
3. V's are pronounced as W's
There are of course many more differences.
The Ecclesiastical pronunciation (i.e. church latin) is to my knowledge pretty much the latin pronounced in europe since at least the time of Charlemagne (ca 800s AD), as that is when latin 'officially' became another language from the vernacular languages. Though I think many of it's elements are much older (soft C's and G's etc which came around 300s or something)
@@vincentloutkovnguyen1428 I see, nice of you to seek knowledge though! Thank you for your explanation. It makes me wonder how much I would've been able to understand him as a french speaker haha

I would have never thought I’d watch a guy with AirPods speak fluent ancient Latin to people talking to each other in different other languages.
Welcome to the future, where nerds who wanna speak Latin can get fluent by talking to each other on the internet 😋😁
Yep. Can I ask we are speaking English if its all about Latin languages? Porque estamos hablando en ingles si es todo acerca de lenguajes latinos?
Yeah! It's awesome 😃😃😃
Sal Salinas Oh, scusami, allora passo a parlare italiano così restiamo in tema!
Si vis pacem, para bellum
I am a romanian and I can get a grasp of most of what is happening here. It's amazing how each can speak it's own language and understand each other.
There are UA-cam videos like this one, perhaps from ecolinguist but I'm not sure, in which the host speaks Romanian and the guests from other countries try to understand what is being described--and vice versa (a Romanian guest among those who listen to someone describing something in another language). A Russian woman I know thinks that Romanian isn't easy for people who speak other Romance languages to understand, because of the Slavic influence, but I find it much more similar to the Latin family than the Slavic. I mean overall--I understand that Romanian is rich with Slavic words as well.
@@HarryHaller1963 Yes, it is kind of mixed with a lot of other languages from the area, many greek words, turkish words, slavic words, I've also been amazed to visit a friend from Prague and to discover that some of our words are the same ones they use in the Czech republic. That you for your reply, I will check on those videos. Wish you a great day.
As an italian, I’m impressed because of how I understood almost everything of what everyone said (even Lucius Ranieri speaking latin) without subtitles. Le lingue romanze sono fantastiche!
Add French and everybody would suddenly become confused
I don't understand barely a freaking damn of Latin actually (in comparison with the other languages), even if I'm Italian and I also know Spanish and I can fully understand Portuguese or French
@@Sara-fd3dd non era moltp difficile.
@@Michael_the_Drunkard Per te magari, che probabilmente hai studiato latino per anni. Io di latino ho solo una minuscola preparazione, e non trovo affatto che sia una lingua facile da capire, soprattutto se parlata con la sua pronuncia e non quella ecclesiastica.
Sobre todo el castellano, que todos los demás latinos deberían aprender para conseguir una lengua mundial franca indiscutible, que lee y pronuncia lo que escribe y no utiliza letras inútiles en sus palabras, excepto la H.
Qué sería de la LATINIDAD sin el español...., qué habría sido del catolicismo sin los españoles ?
Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese speakers: **can understand latin**
Me, a French speaker: 😐🤨
I speack portuguese and I also can't undertand much ekzkwkz only like... 18%?
I think theyre just skilled in this. My native language is polish, and there are many polish related videos on this channel, and I usually understand much less than participants of this videos.
No, we can't.
La raison est simple, le français a eu beaucoup plus d'influence germanique que les trois autres langues dûe à la géolocalisation de la France.
I'll put it in English too so people can understand: The reason is quite simple, French has had a lot more germanic influence than the three other languages due to France's geolocalisation.
@@TechnoForever21 From what I understand, that plus the specific Celtic tribal dialects in Francia, was also a contributor in the disparity. Interesting stuff. I wonder if this disparity also exists in the Lombardy region of Italy, in the way they speak Italian, due to neighboring Germanic countries like Switzerland & Austria.
As a Brazilian, I found this guy speaking Latin easier to understand than the French guy from the other video
Muito mais kkkkk ler frances é facil, agr ouvir e entender eh quase impossível
@@Arthur-gf8yf nem lendo eu entendi kkkk
Eu entendi bastante do francês, mas eu já tentei aprender francês quando tinha 14 anos, então não vale!
Fiquei surpresa como consegui entender bastante coisas em latin rs
Es que los franceses son los especiales de la familia romance 😖

Sou brasileira e meu bisavô , da Espanha, quando ele veio para o Brasil, falava 3 linguas , falava em latim , castelhano e em português, isso a mais de 100 anos atrás, quando ele , chegou aqui no Brasil em 1885 , ele era de Andalusia Espana .Abrazos à todos hermanos, de Portugal , Espanha e Itália! ! 🙏❤
This was incredibly interesting. I could understand quite a bit of it. I was surprised how many similarities I found with German, like "haben" is "habent" or "recht" is "recte" or "ist" is "est" or "schreiben" is "scribere". But I mostly understood it through my knowledge of French and English. I never learned any Latin. Maybe I should. Very fascinating. Bene.
Interestingly, 'haben/have' and 'habent' are unrelated words, and their resemblance is a complete coincidence. Recht/right and ist/is are cognates to recte and est via Proto Indo European. Meanwhile 'schreiben' is a loan word from Latin into Germanic languages which English missed out on.
En español es lo mismo "haber-haben", "recto-recte", "es-est" , "scribere-escribir".
El deustchland es similar, por eso quiero estudiarlo.
Yes. Kinda makes me wonder how mutual intelligible were the european languages in antiquity.
@@Philoglossos ah the the germanic one is habbjan coincidences like that might be false cognates then if it got the same meaning if it got diff meaning then false friend
Well, first both Latin and German are Indo-European, so similarities are expected (numbers 1-10, words for milk, mother, father, brother, sister sound recognizable in all Indo-European languages). Second, German borrowed some words from Latin directly, even very common ones (Das Fenster from "fenestra", native Germanic one would be Windauge, still retained in English).

German latin teacher: _"Don't be affraid. Spoken latin isn't real. It won't hurt you."_
ScorpioMartianus:
AHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I spit out all my cereal for laughing
The german latin teacher's pronounciation is nothing compared to what we heard in this video. Here it was pretty accurate, although the is controversial. Some say it's [v] and some say it's [w]. In Germany they read latin as if it's a german text. As a university standard. So awkward.
@@afilanus7084 I see it like this: schools usually don't teach Latin for verbal communication. Professions with reading (and maybe writing) Latin far outweigh the ones where you have to be able to speak it properly (you can probably count them on one hand, although one can always come up with something new).
Since schools mainly try to prepare for a wide range of professions for one's later life, spoken Latin isn't nearly as important as spoken English, Spanish or French (the three other languages my school taught besides Latin).
But I also have to agree that phonetics is always part of a language, as dead or alive as it may be
@@bumpsy I think it might be helpful for the "popularity" of Latin to actually teach a little of how it is spoken, because quite frankly it sounds much nicer than the german pronunciations ...
@@afilanus7084 it's also quite dumb because you also get into Latin poetry, and even prose was meant to be read out loud. It would be obviously beneficial if we knew how to actually speak it.
The thing I find extremely wholesome is the fact that people from different countries, speaking different languages can somehow understand each other even without actually knowing the respective languages! Plus, knowing that the language you're using on a regular daily base is so similar to the one once spoken by the people who lived in the most powerful society of the history of humanity is so f***ing amazing I can't even tell!
Esse vídeo é MARAVILHOSO. Adorando ver as línguas latinas se comunicando.

Este vídeo me hizo acordar a cuando me estaba preparando para la universidad y mi clase descubrió que nuestro profesor de filosofía que sabía hablar griego antiguo, todo el mundo quedó impresionado 👌 el profesor nos explicó que aprendió para poder leer los libros antiguos desde la fuente sin los cambios de significado que muchas veces tienen las traducciones, nunca se me va a olvidar ❤️

@@pustogolovaya4809 Salvē, Gabi! 👋 😊
Mate, you are just a genius. You know very well latin and all the etymology stuff, that's crazy!
this was so fun... how did you learn latin? are you english?
@@thekyuwa Check out Luke's channels Polymathy (English) and Scorpio Martianus (Latin), he talks all about it there! :-)
The guy speaking Latin has such a good understanding of the others' languages, he's so fast at catching what they didn't get.
He also speaks Italian, so he can understand Linda perfectly and probably doesn’t have too far to go to understand Spanish and Portuguese.
He probably must had classes on spanish and portuguese tough since the portuguese language (particularly the brazilian portuguese that is used in the video) can have huge differences from its fellow latin languages due to the many dialects, ethnic groups and regions that shaped the language as we hear today.
Also the european portuguese may have words that have complete different meanings here in brazil, so yea we pretty much have our own branch of latin
I've heard it's easier to understand from Latin to other romance languages than the other way around. It would make sense, as these languages are derivatives from Latin. If you know Italian on top of that, it would make it even easier to pick up the other languages.
@@fernandomanzanarespreciado5032 i know Italian and Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish I never studied but it's soo easy to understand. The point is i can understand what the latin guy is saying (at least guessing)

@@AlfredKamon in realtà tutte le pronuncia sono corrette. Sia la c che la g sono sempre dure, la pronuncia Latina non è come quella italiana
@@jacknico9654 Ma quando mai? Quella usata nel video è la pronuncia classica, mentre quella che noi conosciamo nelle scuole è quella ecclesiastica, che si basa sul latino medievale.
As a native Portuguese speaker I just turned off the youtube subtitles and watched the full video just looking at them and not even reading the video subtitles. I understood everything, of course not every single word but the concept was always very clear and I could guess accurately 4 of the 6 words too (my guesses for the other two were related to the actual words). It's really impressive! I never thought that Latin would be so nice to follow.

The father talks to his children.
The father is Vulgar Latin. Classical Latin is the grandfather
rather it would be the grandfather I think, as far as I understand this is classic Latin, the mildest Latin and that was the standard Latin, which everyone understood, you found it in books, documents, etc., while the vulgar Latin would be the son, It was the Latin of the town and this varied depending on the region,a Roman from Spain, France or Italy did not speak the sam, the one that did have accents, different words, expressions, etc.

This is just mind-blowing that Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Latin speakers speak their own languages can have a good communication.
In my travels the rule has been , speak your own language the other latin speakers eventually understand if you use enough synonims and you r asked enough times
This is why we need Pan-Latinism , baby
As a French speaker (from Quebec) I could understand a lot of the Latin. When I took my very first Italian lesson many years ago the teacher asked us to speak Italian. We all looked at each other wondering if we were in the classroom for beginners. Then she told us that we already knew Italian and that the main thing we had to learn was how to use our hands :-)

lmaooo
Jajajajaja pensé lo mismo!
Everyone jumps out of a placenta on their birthday!
I guess placenta is named so in English because it settles flat?
it may sound weird to you, but to Romanians is normal. My mom makes "placinta de cirese" (cherry pie) often.
In romanian Placinta- is a Pie (usually a dessert),
but in (especially) Moldova after funerals when people eat is served a sweet dish made with cereals (mostly rice, nowadays) and raisins called - Plachie (palkie) for celebrating The Dead. Placenta = placinta and Plakus = plakie. We scored both from Latin and Greek!
Since I'm learning all these languages, this is actually a wonderful exercise to listen to speakers of all these languages speaking with one another and tuning my ear.

Except for the fact that he's using Italian to build up phrases, not 100% Latin

This is actually pretty incredible. Thank you for sharing.

It was actually spoken much faster and similar to Italian, but the modern speakers of Latin speak incorrectly.

@ユジン
No articles in Latin.
Well if you are fluent in English and German and presumably learned some French and Italian and school as well as some Latin then it's not surprising you could understand him
@ユジン Articles tend to develop as a language loses its case system. Latin probably developed articles around the 5th century.
same here! latin was compulsory for me in year 7 and while i can't remember much grammar at all i still remember some vocabulary that makes it easier for me to spot english cognates
I am italian and speak german. I can understand everything.
Es genial cómo alguien que habla español puede comunicarse perfectamente con alguien que habla portugués sin ninguno haber tomado una sola clase del otro idioma
Portugal y España eran el mismo país en la antigüedad, yo trabajé con brasileños y de inicio no les entendía nada por el acento, pero me llevo solo como dos meses y ya les podía entender todo e incluso hablarlo casi igual que ellos
🇧🇷 - Incrível como consigo entender perfeitamente o que você escreve e o que foi falado em espanhol no vídeo 😁
@@walterpayton2120 Portugal y España nunca fueron el mismo país, como máximo tenían el mismo rey durante 80 años.
Sim e além de tudo é incrível como posso compreender tudo que você escreveu graças a eu ter estudado no Instituto Cervantes 😅
Boy it's weird to come in here and pick out only a few words you're all using and get even a tiny idea of what you're saying! I even check with google translate addon to my browser and I was SO CLOSE but missing much.
5 years of studying Latin and Ancient Greek worked!
Also speaking Italian, Portuguese, French and a bit of Spanish for sure helps 🙃
as a non-romance language speaker I understood about 65% of their dialogue, indeed the most influencial language of Europe! (I speak ukrainian and russian as native, german and i took some polish language classes)
As he speaks Ancient Greek, putting him to speak with Modern Greek natives would be very interesting!
I don’t know about that one. They would probably yell at him and tell him he was saying it wrong. There are lots and lots of modern Greek speakers who get very passionate about reconstructed Greek and saying that it is being mispronounced. They confuse it with erasmian pronunciation. There’s even quite a few of them that argue that ancient Greek was pronounced a lot like modern Greek. They just use different words.
Not really
@@philomelodia Depends on the time (Greek pronunciation changed a lot between -333 and +333) and the place (Athenians were still pronouncing θ as an aspirated stop when other Greeks had already turned it into a fricative). 333 AD Greek sounded almost like modern, but 333 BC Greek was quite different.
@Russell Richards There's nothing 'erasmian' about this haha. This is the reconstructed classical pronunciation of Latin which is based on mountains of evidence and direct testimony from the romans themselves. :-)
Pierre Abbat you are, of course, absolutely right. However, say that to a lot of modern Greeks and you’ll have an argument on your hands. I have seen them get triggered by somebody pronouncing the post Alexandrian common variant of the language Koine insted of kee-neh. Others get mad when you pronounce beta like a b instead of a V. You should check out the channel called podium arts. It’s run by an actual native modern Greek speaker who uses ancient reconstructed pronunciation for a lot of the classics. The comment sections are absolutely chock-full of challengers and naysayers taking him to task. In Greek, of course.
Impressionante como, em poucos minutos ouvindo a pronúncia do Latim, a gente passa a se familiarizar e tudo fica mais fácil de entender!
True, but it still sounds very strange for an Italian speaker like me. I get most of the words, but not everything.
Still, I can understand everything you wrote here perfectly :)
Não sei se é por ser biologa, mas o que entendi mais rápido foi escorpião. Fiquei agoniado pra eles entenderam logo que era isso.

Melhor episódio de todos!!! Muito bom, quero mais vídeos com essa galera!
Adoro o Gustavo nesses tipo de quadro do canal, chamem mais ele ❤️❤️
Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Latin speakers : *have fun*
French : *crying alone*
Update : thanks to my Romanian and Catalan buddies, we will stand strong lol
French and Romanian are very different compared to the other languages
Written is very much comprehensible to other Western Latin speakers, but not spoken French. I have no idea where you guys took those sounds from. Probably from the brits, or some other funky norses...
@@---.----- French sounds so different because it came from latin pronounced with the germanic Franks accent.
@@marcelo497 I think French pronunciation is hard to understand for italian/spanish speakers but the opposite is less true, we could understand Latin almost as well as Italian speakers I would say
Also you could say that for Portuguese, the pronunciation is very hard to understand too
@@---.----- French pronouciation and many words comes from the Franks, a germanic tribe. :)
...i am italian and it was incredible being able to understand four languages simultaneusly- thank you for the experience.
un'esperienza arricchente e meno confusa del previsto, molto fluida
@@nataliaquirino concordo muito enriquecedora e muito fluida
Verdaderamente ha sido una experiencia enriquecedora para todos.
Increible como el conocer a profundidad la raiz de las palabras, puede ayudarnos a entender otros idiomas. Fue maravilloso poder entender 4 idiomas simultaneamente, muchas gracias.
Vero!
This was really fun to watch. Nice work.
Finally I found a video where I could learn to read and speak Latin with accurate enunciation.. Thank you.
I salute to the dude who fluently speaks a language that is DEAD FOR CENTURIES and he does it like it's completely normal. Pretty awesome
That's basically what happened in Israel with Hebrew, I think.
@@eurotop40 Uh, no. Hebrew is still alive, the Tora is written in it, people of Israel still speak it. I'm afraid your assumption is wrong.
@@DansuB4nsu03 Hebrew was revived in the late 1800s. Prior to that Hebrew didn't have native, first language speakers for almost two millennia.
@@DansuB4nsu03 Israel is a relatively new country on the scale of human history. Israel revived Hebrew from its several thousand years death.
Ce tare e asta....asa vorbeau stramosi nostri....
I'm Mexican and I understand Latin more than french
cool!
Somos dois irmão.
El francés es inentendible
Es posible, creo que es porque el francés es la lengua romance que más se distancia del latín
That's right. French is easier to read, but damned pronunciation... 😁
Amazing.
In some regions in Portugal we also know escorpiões (scorpio) as "lacrau(s)".
This was a joy to watch, thank you!
As a French speaker this made my brain go in overdrive trying to understand everybody.
As a spanish speaker i can understand latin even better than french 😅 (and i only understand about 20 percent of what he says hahah, so crazy)
@@josebosua1489 You're saying you get a language with different sentence structure (Latin) but don't get shit of French (which has the exact same structure as Spanish and has many words written 95% the same). I speak French and it's quite easy to guess what Spanish, Italian, Catalan say. Harder for other Romance languages,
@@fs400ion you guys pronuntiate halfwords... The feel when you translate the word is:
oh and where the rest of the word is?
One or two words is tolerate but you do this with everything...
Your way is the opposite, we add letters to your words, it is easier!!!
@@fs400ion As an Italian speaker I could say that written French is very understandable but spoken French looks like a completely different language, the accent and the fact you cut the words instead of pronouncing them like they are written makes it hard to understand for the other Romance speakers.
@@bilbohob7179 You're right but I think it's easier to remember a word with one syllable instead of two. It also helps speaking faster
everybody gangster till you start talking like the romans.
lol
Its very fancy to speak latin like a boss
gaby what did romans speak?
@@rstriker21 rt
@gaby well ancient egyptian is also a dead language and there are still people who can speak it pretty well. When language is dead it means that it's no longer used by a major population or as a lingua-franca.
Amazing video! Truly enjoyed watching it.
I grew up in a Portuguese speaking household but it has been so long since I've spoken it that I actually understand the Spanish guy better than the Portuguese guy. Most of the Latin just went right over my head. Reading it I could somewhat understand but not just by listening to it.
Just learned that the Latin speaker is a native English speaker. I didn’t hear any English influences at all. Good job!
I'm italian and I'm 16 I'm notte so good in latin butta I now the pronunciation better than you ( ae is e )
@@codirobi7478 ae is only 'e' in ecclesiastical latin. in classical latin (the older form he speaks) ae says the same sound as english "I" or 'eye'.
No English but a lot of Italian. I'd like to find out how exactly classical Latin sounded, I mean the accent etc., not just pronunciation, but that's probably a lost knowledge. Somehow I doubt it had this much of Italian in it.
@@janlinhart7914 there was no single Latin pronunciation, even non vernacular classical Latin varied throughout the empire. I don't know why you'd be surprised by the Italian, it's basically what old English is to modern English. You should also realize about 50% of the Italian population still learns ancient Latin in high school to this day. Much more than any other cultures and you can imagine that only helps to keep the Italian language tied to its roots. It's not like 50% of anglofones thoroughly study old English
@@jeupater1429 maybe you know more than me on this, but afaik what's taught in schools isn't classical Latin but something closer to ecclesiastical Latin, which draws heavily on Italian in both vocabulary and pronunciation
As an Asian, I understand
Latin: 0%
Spanish: 0%
Portuguese: 0%
Italian: 0%
Edit: Thanks for all the likes!
But did you get the differences among all of them? Can you tell them apart?
@@guillermolangle lol no i only speak english and chinese haha xd
HelloIts RandomJake so for you they all sound the same?
@@guillermolangle ye. What about you?
HelloIts RandomJake I’m Spanish and I also speak Italian, so it was pretty easy for me to understand. Latin though, I had to read it to get to understand something
Recordemos que El Español, El Italiano, y El Portugués son un Latín evolucionado por el paso del tiempo, por eso no es muy dificil para los hablantes de estos idiomas, entender al ancestro mayor (LATIN).
Es más bien ancestro común.
wow, this was very interesting to watch! languages are truly fascinating
I am Japanese who has studied Latin for two years and knows almost nothing of Portuguese, Italian or Spanish. Now I'm surprised to find myself slowly starting to make sense of what all of you guys speak as I watch the video, though the subtitles are big help to me.
You are japanese and know latin, i am brazillian and after 3 months in latin class, i give up, congrats
一角獣発見！まさかラテン語を勉強している日本人に会うとはな！普通に日本人は片言英語しか話せないからね。日本人が外国語で話しているのを見るのはいつも嬉しい驚きだ。
ラティン語を勉強してる日本人? 珍しい
The subtitles made me understand like 90% of it. Otherwise I probably would understand only about 30%. 😂
Welcome to our languages japa Bro! In Brazil, in the past, we had a japanese immigration, and nowadays there are a lot of japanese descendents, who are in fact brazilians now, but we call them 'japas' yet, in a respectful way, of course. And meanwhile we're all brazilians, they'll always be part "japas", and this kind of makes Brazil and Japan siblings nations. Included, Japanese culture is very popular here. Cheers from Brazil, to all the japanese people.
I'm a portuguese speaker and Latin sounds like an "posh italian" lol
To me Italian sounds like posh Latin. Latin sounds hard, rough, tough, abrasive, imposing. Italian sounds ... romantic and frivolous by comparison, to me
@@7yep4336dfgvvh that probably has to do with the way that especific dude speaks. He has a deep voice and talks really assertively.
Ive never really heard Latin spoken at more than a few words at a time so never knew the way it really sounded or the cadence at which it's spoke and after hearing this I have to agree with you this sounds Posh like something only royals would speak
@@l.f.r.6523 no. It's really just the way it sounds. Italian has a lot more words ending in 'o', e.g. 'Flavio'. And latin has a lot more words ending in 'us' and 'orum' and such, e.g. 'Flavius'. Latin sentences also kind have more of a 'final' feel to them too. 'blah blah est.' It sounds final.
He speaks restoured Latin..it sounds hard. It's horrible. I prefer Latin sounded like roman sound. Roman Latin.
This is such a great and fun idea! I really enjoyed that. Thank you very much for doing this.
I'm now addicted t watching these. I'm enjoying the accents, voices, and mannerisms of everyone involved 😭😭
Que raro ver 4 personas hablando 4 idiomas diferentes y poder entender
Assolutamente
Vero
Lenguas romance
Verídico
As a native Romanian speaker and someone who speaks both Italian and Portuguese I find it quite weird that I end up connecting Latin to Romanian rather than Italian
I love when Lucius says lusitanice when addressing to the portuguese language. Lusitano and Lusitania have such strong historical, cultural and poetic meaning and are still synonyms of Portuguese and Portugal. Big hug to all lusophones and the entire romance language speakers.
Um pouco injusto visto que o Portus Cale fica num território históricamente galaico.
Yes, saying someone from brazil as 'lusitano' can be correct, as from portuguese people we call it ' lusíada'
Sí, es un término poético. Pero es gracioso que los portugueses sean precisamente los descendientes de los que mataron a los lusos (tribu), y el idioma "luso" o "lusitano" murió con ellos.
This is something seeing the old world and new world speaking to each other
really enjoyed it!
Beautiful! My four favorite languages all at the same time!
Me starts speaking Latin:
Demon in corner of my room

hi
Nobody cares
Nice!
Great!
Great!! Wonderfull ! Bravo à vous je suis français et aime la langue latine comme vous ! gratulationes
I grew up around "Spanglish" and that with studying for a little over a year now consistently studying Spanish, this video is very informative and I can actually follow the conversation quite well. Estoy muy feliz por el ayudar que he recibo desde mis Professors y Professoras y continuaré estudiando Español a comprende más para razónes de personale.
Thank you Norbert for another great video!
As a brazilian who transfered to italy and studied latin
Portuguese: 100%
Italian: 100%
Spanish: 90%(spoken slowly)
Latin:80%
French: le teaspoon 10%
I'm brazillian too but mine is:
Portuguese: 100%
Italian: 80/90% written or spoken very slowly
Spanish: 90% ( spoken slowly but I can read in spanish)
Latin: 80/90% (I never studied latin but it's similar to portuguese/spanish/italian and some words are similar)
English: 100% (I speak english)
French: 10% (I'm learning it)

This feels like a parent talking to their children after years of not seeing each others lol.

Sencillamente espectacular! Es increíble que sin saber Portugues, Latin, o Italiano también les entiendo bastante. Al final es cierto eso de las lenguas romances que dice Luke. Y además está logrando que comience a tener interés en aprender Latin :) aparte de otras lenguas.
I'm Brazilian and I speak English and Italian, so this video was really fun! I had some trouble to understand some parts of Latin, but I could catch up, and the subtitles really helped, cause I guessed most of the words before they did
I speak french and was able to guess the words he was explaining, but I guess it is much easier for us, viewers, as we can see the subtitles.
le dernier mot, c'était 'deuil' ou quoi?
I try not to look at the subtitles when watching. I've tried not looking at the screen but the facial expressions and body gestures really help a lot in learning the words.
@@ianbaram3043 non, il a dit que c'était synonyme de deuil. Je pense pas qu'il y ait d'équivalent en français apart mélancolie ou tristesse
this is funny
@@guillaumeatoch2260 C'est une tristesse profonde. Donc malheur, mélancolie, misère, etc...

19:20 Em portugues de Angola dizemos "Lacrau"
¡Genial este vídeo! I had so much fun watching it!! Me ha encantado. Quería comentar que la palabra "alacrán" se usa en España también (y seguramente en otros países aparte de Méjico); su etimología según la RAE proviene del árabe ('aqrab) como es común en muchas palabras en español que comienzan con "al". He disfrutado muchísimo escuchando el latín e intentando adivinar el significado. ¡Enhorabuena!
This guy speaking Latin like it's not dead or something. Mind blown. Even as a French speaker, I can still grasp some of this.
Oui, définitivement. Mais la plupart du temps je comprenais sans comprendre.
This guy speaks the best Latin I’ve ever seen! I’m honestly so happy I found this video! I’ve been waiting to hear spoken Latin with a realistic accent for a long time
Yea, I got tired of listening latin with an American accent, I could barely understand it.
You *see* latin?
@@appleslover ??
Problem is, we don't know how the real accent would like, we lost it too much time ago we can only guess., also, he's getting a few words wrong.
I find this so absolutely fascinating
