      it's important to note that it's a wildly different thing to speak different unrelated languages than it is to speak multiple related ones. not taking away from your talent, but maithili and awadhi are quite similar because they have their origins in bihar itself, and both of them are very closely related to hindi. same with hindi and punjabi.

      ​​​@@atharvzemse6599sorry to butt in, but from what i have observed about Maharashtrian Marathis - i live in Mumbai in a Marathi-dominated area - not all Marathi speakers speak Konkani. Many can understand Konkani, but they can't necessarily converse. This is true even for "native" speakers, i.e. people whose mother tongue is Marathi. It's even less common for people like me, who speak Marathi, not as a mother tongue but by virtue of being a Mumbaikar, to also speak Konkani. This is mainly bcoz I am exposed to Marathi but not to Konkani. I think most Goa Marathis can speak both tho

      Honestly, these types of videos are so wròng, giving $ to x or y for speaking languages, pfff, one should work hard to get a småll amount of money for food and rent, and not get it for free basically - anyways, one can imagine that ppl that say they speak many languages aren’t fluent / native speaker level in all languages they say they speak, so it’s probably A1 / A2 level in most and B1 level in some and fluent only in 2 or 3 languages, so I would say Dutch / English / German are spoken more fluently, and the others at A1 to B1 level, because learning a language means one has to learn at least 10.000 base words if one wants to get to a native speaker level, which can be extremely overwhelming if one wants to learns many languages...

      Like, I have over 50 languages on my list of languages I want to know and improve, and I can understand many of the similar ones, and I am advanced level in Dutch (over 8.000 base words) and writer level in English (60k to 100.000 words or maybe more) and intermediate level in Norwegian / German / Swedish and Portuguese and close to an intermediate level in French and native speaker level in Spanish (over 11.000 base words to 15.000+ words) and beginner level in Welsh / Old Norse / Breton / Icelandic / Gothic / Norn / Hungarian / Cornish / Galician / Catalan / Gallo / Danish / Irish / Slovene / Luxembourgish / Faroese / Limburgish / Manx / Occitan / Latin / Scottish Gaelic / Limburgish / Guernsey / Ripuarian / Italian and the other Dutch-based / Italian-based / German-based / French-based etc languages and the 3 Frisian languages (West Frisian / North Frisian / East Frisian) and Scots Doric and Yola and the other pretty languages that are on my list!

    Many urban Indians also tend to mix languages when we speak. Often in the same sentence you'll have words from different languages. When i thought about it, I realized that i regularly mix 3 languages during normal conversation. And the combination of languages can vary based on the opposite person and the languages they are comfortable with.

      It's way way more than repeating the same things.
      I watched him speaking French (my native language) and Wouter is pretty good ! He makes a few grammatical errors but that's expected.

    If you wanna describe how an action is done in chinese (like saying that you can't write well) you should say "我写中文写得不好“ (Wǒ xiě zhōngwén xiě de bù hǎo).得 de is used to describe how an action is done and it always follows the verb. Also when using this structure the first verb can be omitted "我中文写得不好 Wǒ zhōngwén xiě de bù hǎo".

    little tip for spanish: when you want to talk about something remember to add the prepositions and pronouns, for example, "Quiero saber más sobre la cultura de Incas", instead try to say "Quiero saber más sobre la cultura de LOS Incas". Since you are not talking about a specific person, but a group, so you add "LOS". for the other one "La cultura de Machu Pichu", instead try "La cultura DEL Machu Pichu" Not talking about an animal so it sounds weird if you say "de", instead try to say 'DEL', more appropiated for a non-live being thing.
    hope it helped at least a bit !
