      @@klimtkahlo I'm a native Portuguese speaker and so it's pretty easy for me to understand Spanish since they are really close languages - that probably makes it harder for me to "hear" Greek as Spanish. Italian is also pretty similar and understandable to a certain extent, so that's why it's sort of easy for me to recognize Greek: it sounds a bit like Italian, but I can't understand anything at all, so it's probably Greek 🤣

      If You _really_ heard Greek and Spanish before that little Experiment, both Languages would _not_ sound alike, just if You maybe do not really know both Languages and really only know English than both Languages could sound alike to You. To me Spanish sounds like Spanish and Greek sounds like Greek. I can not speak both of these Languages but I heard them before.. And both Languages sound even _very different_ to me.

    That episode was really cool.
    Interesting to see that almost everyone identified Portuguese first as a Slavic language, then suggested it to be a romantic language. That's because the girl is Portuguese and Portuguese from Portugal sounds Slavic, unlike the Portuguese we speak here in Brazil which sounds completely romantic. Greetings from Brazil 🇧🇷

    • @holger_p
      @holger_p 2 роки тому +10

      It's more the many "sch" sounds, that makes it sound slavic. The slavic write cz, or or cs or like in Janusz, the portuguese write their português without any indications, the s is not an s. From reading it, you got no idea how to speak it (if you had no course). .. there is not much difference from Portugal to Brazil cause there is not much contact to either language.

Sometimes we have to listen 2 or 3 times to understand what you guys said and we both speak the same language, imagine who doesn't speak. You people and 90% of other lusophone countries sound more Slavic and hard to understand while we sound more romantic and easy to understand.

    It’s true mandarin is difficult in reading and writing, especially writing (even for native speakers), but it’s much easier in speaking and listening. So for mandarin learners I recommend starting with only listening and speaking. With the help of Pinyin you will find it’s not much of a difficult language at all. Good to see my native tongue being recognized.

Not necessarily to learn any of the other languages, but merely to let my brain steep in them a bit and improve my recognition. And for that reason, and with all due modesty, I must admit I guessed all but two correctly (yay me). Cheers! -Phill, Las Vegas

    I'm Portuguese and, just in case you find this information interesting, I only didn't recognize Vietnamese and Turkish out of all those audio clips.
    Also, people are constantly guessing Russian or other Slavic languages when listening to Portuguese because of the similar sonority with some aspects of our language. There's a whole video by Langfocus explaining why this is.
    Romanian is also a Romance language, so maybe that's why it was also a guess when listening to Portuguese.

    Regions share linguistic features, include those that go beyond the phonetics. On the other hand, Chinese langauges do not sound anything like Korean or Japanese. Not to blame, is just curious for me.

    • @ominusomega7803
      @ominusomega7803 2 роки тому +4

      So, I'm not sure about Korean but Japanese and Mandarin do have quite the amount of similarities that stemmed from centuries of interaction between the 2 regions. For example, the most common similarity is the use of Chinese characters in Japanese in the form of Kanji as well as its Chinese pronunciation (Korean used to have something similar called Hanja iirc). (For example, this word 電話 meaning phone (lit. electric talk) in japanese is pronounced "denwa" while the same word in mandarin is pronounced "dianhua". This is an example of the Onyomi reading of Japanese kanji which is the transliteration of the Chinese pronunciation.). Another similarity is the use of a particle (a character or symbol that alone do not have meaning unless used in a sentence) to denote the possessive, in English it would be " 's " and in German it would be the genitive case etc, in the case of Japanese it uses the particle "の" (read as "no") and in Mandarin, the character ”的“ (read as "de") is used. Furthermore, Old Japanese and Old Chinese seem to also have somewhat similar pronunciation rules (tho I'm not so sure about this). However, despite these similarities, these languages are not related and only share similarities due to interaction (which is also why Japanese seem so different, since they had a good few centuries of isolation) and hence, Japanese is considered a linguistic isolate (a language with no other related languages or is a part of any established language families). (though, there was a time that people considered Korean and Japanese to be related but iirc this is not an accepted theory anymore)

    I totally understand why people from countries like Germany, who are exposed to Turkish very often, don’t recognize the Turkish spoken in Turkey. Those of us who live outside Turkey speak very different. It’s (mostly) the same words that are spoken, but with different pronunciations that have been affected by the dialects of the cities we migrated from in Turkey + the languages of the countries we now reside in - urghh, Turkish with a German accent sounds like a pain in the ***, sorry alamanci guys (I’m from Denmark, imo we sound a little better and generally have a better vocabulary). Most of us probably speak with an Anatolian accent, which can sound like Arabic or Persian to the foreign ear. Very different to the high Turkish which you heard the young Turks speak in this video. People make fun of our pronunciation when we’re in Turkey🥲
