My name is Kazuya. I am Japanese. I travel around the world interviewing locals and foreigners.
There are many countries in the world. Culture differs from country to country. Even if I ask the same question, the answer is different depending on the country. And even if I ask the same question in the same place 10 years later, the answer may change. It's very interesting. I want the viewers to know and be interested in various countries. And I would be happy if you like the country and visit it. I would be happy to help you with your travels and study abroad.

I envy you because you speak many languages^ ^
@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 but you speak multiple languages too.. otherwise, we won't be able to understand your contents 🤭

Very interesting, most Malaysians can speak multiple languages because of the diversity, that is the unique aspect of Malaysia😊
That's very interesting☺️
A Malaysian is not homogenous. You can have Malaysian Chinese, Malay, Indian, Kadazan etc. Their culture/language/lifestyle are not all the same although there maybe some similiarities, but, they share the same nationality, spirit as Malaysian.
Depends who you ask. Typically, a Malaysian malay can speak 2 (Malay and English), Chinese can speak 3 - 4 (English, Cantonese, Mandarin and Malay) and Indian can speak 3 languages (Malay, English and Tamil/Hindi). You are welcome
thank you👍
@Lex ko yakin org melayu HANYA boleh BERCAKAP atau menguasai dlm 2 Bahasa?😂😂 Kalau tak Ada bukti Dan FAKTA Yang betul jangan membuat andaian Dan penilian sendiri.nampak stupid dalam media sosial...aku sahaja boleh bertutur,membaca,mengeja Dalam 7 Bahasa termasuk Bahasa mandarin,kwn2 melayu Aku pun ramai Yang fasih Dalam mandarin dan Ada Yang mahir Dalam bahasa tamil..mcm mana ko boleh cakap org melayu biasa nya boleh menguasai 2 Bahasa sahaja..then may I asking you?how many languages u can speak?
@@mohdrizazyabdghani7922 Typically la. Not 100% of course. Of course Malay can also learn chinese etc
@@leealex24 I understand that,but for some reason u should said typically Malaysian people's without say any race that will be batter..don't marah2 ah..sbb that will be menimbulkan kesalah fahaman org lain membaca stament tersebut..jgn marah ah jangan terasa hati..we proud as Malaysian people's can speak more then 1 language..Kita anak Malaysia..😂🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾❤️❤️❤️🙏
@@mohdrizazyabdghani7922 Can't bro. Malaysia is a multi-racial country. If you are Malaysian, you should know this. A Malaysian chinese spoken languages would be different from say a Malaysian Indian. It's fact, but, not implying anything, but that's how it is in a good way. Malaysia ensures every ethnic groups also learn, speak their own mother tongue.
Most of Malaysians are able to speak English, and that's amazing...
I'm Malaysian and I can speak Malay, English, Tamil, Spanish and a little Mandarin, Japanese. Masih belajar Mandarin dan Japanese ,suatu hari nanti akan bertutur fasih.
Total 6 languages

@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 it's good when people can speak, writing, reading more then 1/2/3 language.. It's more important when we start looking for some job or help some people or touris, or holidays and its depends with who I'm talking to.most important is Bahasa melayu SANGAT penting Dalam kehidupan seharian.walau macam mana sekali pun Dan banyak mana Bahasa saya atau rakyat malaysia boleh bertutur, Bahasa melayu adalah Bahasa utama(Bahasa kebangsaan/national language)..macam Tu juga kawan2 non Muslim mereka juga Akan bercakap Dalam Bahasa melayu.
I literally waiting for u to interview a Chinese but I see none lol. As for me, I speak 5 different languages which is English, Malay, Mandarin, Cantonese and Hokkien. I can understand Hakka and Teochew as well. 😊
I didn't try to interview Chinese, Koreans and Japanese. But I will try to do that from now on☺️
basically you speak three languages. those other than Eng & Malay are Chinese dialects. if we take dialects into consideration, then I can speak Kelantanese, Perlis, Kedahan, Perakian, Negeri and Javanese☺Throw in Dusun, Kadazan, Melanau and Dayak too.
@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 you interview two arab, and i dont think there are malaysian. but most chinese in malaysia is malaysian.

Most malaysian chinese knows at least 3 languages namely Mandarin, English and Malay and some Chinese dialects like Cantonese, Hokkien and Hakka
The language that can be spoken changes depending on the person's parents. It's very interesting☺️
Cantonese Hokkien Hakka all are languages, not dialects

manyy school in malaysia offer other language in high school.

Cantonese and Hokkien are languages, not dialects

It's great to learn something no matter how old you are. I will do my best to be able to speak many languages like you☺️
Why you speak english at so high level?
@@shersher3652 Because I'm Japanese😁

In my own country i can speak 3 language , Malay , English , Mandarin... The other Darja , French , Portuguese,Dutch , Dominican Republic Spanish slangs
Your country is wonderful. My country has only one language😂
malay, english, chinese since kindergarden , dusun since middle school, first japanese but the teacher move then got into french , then i move into a boarding school and got korean, i learn a bit arab in my new highschool because of my friends that got into arab class language , so 4 fluent , 2 so-so (just got the certificate hehe) and 2 abit only (which were arab and japanese) hehe, japan is hard and i only learn it for 1 year before the teacher move and corona strikes...
I can speak 3 languages. Bahasa Melayu, English and Javanese. I learned Arabic in school, I can only read and understand about 10-20% of the spoken standard Arabic (ex: news, religious text), but I can't speak it.
I have heard that Arabic is one of the most difficult languages😂
It's amusing to see in the background of this video the introduction to Islam in both English and Chinese. I never thought people can even try to convert Chinese people to muslims. Maybe Christianity is more possible. Fun fact is that I am Chinese and muslim myself, but I still don't think it ever works. I mean, you can be influenced into it by other people, but not like this way.
I Can Speak 4 Languages. They Are Malay, English, Indonesian & Some Russian
wonderful. You can make many friends because you can speak many languages.
@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 Yes, Thank You. Now My Hobby Is Becoming A Polygot, I Want To Learn & Speak Many Languages As Many As I Can.

I want to say something to you. You are a language genius👍

Normally malaysians speak 2 . Many speak 3. I am lucky to be able to speak 5

I can speak many language using just my head up and down left and right.

@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 something like that.and when talking with a fast talker australian.i go a a a.
I currently only speak 2 languages (B.Melayu & English) but I am putting efforts into learning 1 more language which is Russian. Though it is hard to manage my schedule as I barely have time to learn it due to school and stuff 😔😔
As of now I can read russian but I don't understand anything lmaoo. Gotta learn grammars next, then I move to vocabulary.
Learning languages is difficult. do your best👍
Malay girl should say she can speak arabic too. Becoz she probably can speak and wrote some surah in Al Quran..right
2 (Malay and English) which I use it daily..and few more languages when I swear ( bad words)
English is the most important language in the world👍
I can speak malay, English, Javanese also tamil and bisaya ( sabah).
nice👍
Love from tamilnadu
5:06 the last guy, so funny, effortlessly
👍
I'm from Jakarta, I can speak Malay fluently without learning Malay
I have heard that Malay and Indonesian are similar☺️
@@interviewsaroundtheworld8467 this is going to be controversial but bahasa Indonesia is basically Malay mixed with Indonesian dialects. we share the same root words, vocab, sentence structure, grammar. the base for Indonesian is Malay. to put it into perspective, Malay is like standard Japanese and Indonesian is like Kansai ben. Same language, different sounds & intonation (and words too).
@@Ruriko.Y It's wonderful that you can communicate in your own language even though you are from different countries. We Japanese can only speak Japanese. And Japanese is not understood in languages other than Japan😅
2nd couple of boys are not Malaysians despite claiming to be, after learning yet can'tspeak the country's national language...😅😅😅 Malaysians always and can speak in Malay no matter how broken it is ❤ any other languages we naturally attempt to justify why haha it is like an American who can't speak american or British who can't speak English lol.
