The hardest word for a foreigner to say in Swedish is most of the time the word "sju" (seven). The way we pronounce the letter "u" is kind of unique in Scandinavia.
omg this is giving me ptsd when i tried to learn how to say kÖlsch in german - no matter how many germans i tried to copy and how close i thought i sounded they would look so frustrated with me. i'm like PLEASE it's only one syllable why can't i say it right!?!? hahaha
I think "tjugo" (20) is harder at least for people from Finland, their "tj" sound sounds like "sj", so when they try to say tjugosju (27) it sounds like sjusju (7 7). I think their ears aren't trained to hear the difference.
@@reineh3477 idk why but hearing you say "their ears aren't trained to hear the difference" enlightened me so much. I always thought i had an innate talent for hearing little differences and noticing details, when it came to accents (and even faces) but now i'm realizing language isn't innate - it's learned. lol how dumb am i
@@reineh3477 the "tj" sound in "tjugo" a lot of languages have in their native sound. "sj" as in "sju" are more rare. Plus the swedish letter "u" which is almost unique for Scandinavia. So "sju" is a lot harder for foreigners to pronounce because it is two sounds they are not familiar with. The finnish swedish-speaking people speaks swedish fluently though since swedish is their native tongue. It is their dialect.
Yeah I know. I’m from Sweden and speak fluent Swedish, and for us we have to practice to speak the tongue twisters. But for the others who doesn’t speak any Swedish thinks it’s super hard. Us Swedish people have it easy to say a few tongue twisters both from Sweden and from different countries but we need to practice, and that’s what many other people need to do too. 💗
The fact the went for the easier version of the Swedish one as well and still had so much trouble is so relatable (Born in Sweden but am ethically Spanish) The harder version is “Sjuhundrasjuttiosju sjösjuka sjömän sköttes av sjuttiosju skönsjungande sköna sjuksköterskor på sjunkande skeppet i Shanghai” for anyone wondering
@@andiuti Same here, the "sju sjösjuka sjömän..." is easy for a native Swede, as it's really just a play on the specific "sh" sound. The placement in the mouth is the same all the way through so it's not really that tricky. "Sex laxar i en laxask" on the other hand is plain difficult because it's harder for the tongue to form those sounds in quick succession.
Yeah, for two of the persons I could not understand at all what they were trying to say, well for one of them I could maybe have figured out the last word. But she's like "oh I'll give you 5" haha
As another Swedish speaker, I'd say the rating was fair, since the phrase was just a giant trap. There's no way for any non-speaker to recognize that those are sj-sounds, and swedish has dozens that may or may not be used as sj-sounds in any instance. If it would be fair as compared to the Chinese example, the phrase should have been written "shu shoeshuka shoemaen schoettes av shu shoena shukschoeteshkor". Sh, ch and sch are recognizable as sj-sounds, not so much sj, sk, skj, stj, t, ti, tj, j, si, ssi, ssj, rs, g, ge, gi, k, kj, and whatever more obscure variants there are.
I think the girls were really good at pronunciating "sju", and the second girl manage sort of to pronounce "sjuksköterskor" but very slowly and with some brakes. The French guy sounded a little bit like he came from Finland and the Korean guy was impossible for me to understand at all (sorry). XD
As a regular Swedish non-giant, I think the best response I've heard to the Swedish tongue twister is that it sounds like a hissing cat because I can't disagree.
@@livedandletdie Well I can’t say for sure. But I think the Chinese sound is more lighter in its sound. Almost like the English sh noise. While Swedish is more aggressive. To say a more English ch type of sound. But Yeah similar.
what the hell do you mean. Do we hiss like cats?🤣😂😂 meeoooow! Maybe you mean the breathing IN air in a "sscchhhp", which simply means yes?🤣😂 If this is unique in the world it makes me proud 😂
That’s definitely the hardest one to pronounce (in Swedish). But we also love the: Sex laxar i en laxask. The point for that one is you have to say it fast many times over. It’s designed to make Swedes completely trip over the words and fail, so would be fun hearing others try it. It’s hard because the X is always strong/hard in Swedish. And pronounced roughly as eKs and then at the end it’s also strong but sK. So it flips the sound.
I think for foreigners, longer tongue twisters are harder since it is hard to critique pronounciation. For Thai we have a lot of very hard tongue twisters but this one is quite easy but I think you need to put tones for Thai just like Chinese because it is also a tonal language, and tones are very important for meaning and is what makes these tongue twisters hard.
I'm impressed by the french guy trying the swedish phrase. Had he known about the sj- and sk sounds hed pretty much nailed it. Next time I wanna see them do "sex laxar i en laxask", which is one that's actually hard for natives too.
I'm a native Chinese speaker and am fluent in French. I'm super impressed with the Korean guy. His Chinese sounded almost native at the beginning. He only lost points because the tongue twister was long, and it seemed like as he kept going, he kind of got tired of trying that hard. His French was also not bad. His accent was thick, but the pronunciation (in terms of pronouncing the right stuff in a comprehensible way) wasn't bad at all. I'd be a happy prof if all my students could do that.
The funny thing about the Swedish tongue twister is that it’s only hard for foreigners because of the very Scandinavian sounds. It’s super easy for swedes to pronounce. If you want something that trips swedes up, say “sex laxar i en laxask” (literally “six salmon in a salmon box”). It is hard because is combines k-sound and s-sound with sometimes one being first and sometimes the other.
There’s a famous danish tongue twister, not for Danes, but for foreigners learning our language. It’s “rødgrød med fløde” which uses phonetic sounds of the “d” which are unique to the language. It was so difficult, that during WW2, it was used to spot nazi spy’s in Denmark as they would force them to pronounce the phrase, something only someone who grew up in Denmark would be able to pronounce.
They could have chosen "Les chemises de l'archi duchesse sont elle sèches ou archi sèches" Or even "Un chasseur sachant chasser doit savoir chasser sans son chien" But hey it was REALLY interesting 😄 Also i tough about it the whole video so ps: the thai lady is fkn adorable she made me smile the whole thing 😂❤

The French guy actually pronounced the sentence close to what it would've sounded like 600 years ago (had all the words existed then), as that was before the consonant clusters merged to form the modern sounds. Back then, "sk" would've been pronounced "s-k", like in English "skin", and "sj" would've been "s-j", akin to a posh English pronunciation of "suit" or "super" ("syoot", "syooper").
The French tongue twister is a variant of a riddle: "Je suis ce que je suis, mais je ne suis pas ce que je suis car si j’étais ce que je suis, je ne serai plus ce que je suis. Qui suis-je ?" - it plays with the meaning of "je suis", that can refer to the verb Être (to be) or Suivre (to follow) So in English it'd say: "I am what I am, but I am not what I follow For if I was what I follow, I would not be what I am anymore. Who am I?" - For those seeking the answer: it's a man in a funeral procession (he "is" alive and "follow" a dead)

Nah mate, fairly easy for swedes at least, there are much worse versions of that tounge twister haha. Add to that, we can have infinitely long combined words in swedish, a common "joke" word that actually is a word that kinda makes sense is "Flaggstångsknoppsputsare" and all the even longer versions of it lol.

The Swedish one is even difficult for us Swedes as well, mainly because there are small differences in the sounds that can trip us up. However, this classic Swedish tongue twister is even more devilish for foreigners due to the fact that the Sj sounds as well as the U sound are not very common in other languages. And to throw in an extra cherry on top for the difficulty scale; k before a vowel makes a "ch" sound, with the Sk in these ones making a different kind of "ch" sound. And of course, Ö and Ä nobody will on their first go as they are not just O and A but their own letters.
You should try polish tongue twisters next time 😁It'll be really funny to hear your versions of e.g: ' Szedl Sasza sucha szosa' or ' W Szczebrzeszynie chrzaszcz brzmi w trzcinie' 🤣🤣
I heard some polish guys smash the second one, it was really impressive!! Imo polish tongue twisters are the hardest just because lots of people aren't used to the szcz
Sandanavia languages sometimes make Mandarin sounds easier. Nobody outside of that area has yet to pronounce the name of the volcano that caused a havco a few years ago.
That's Icelandic, which is on a whoooooole other level from the continental Scandinavian languages. Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian are actually not that hard.
@@Xaimy_3777 in my view norwegian is just an accent that i can understand really well. Perhaps cause I watched a lot of norwegian shows but eh. Danish is harder, but i can still understand it quite okay-ish.
When I read a semester in Korean language class, the lessons where in English, but I realized quite fast that 2 of the syllables could be linked to Swedish Alphabet. ㅐ→Ä (or Danish æ) and ㅓ→ Å (but its a "Å" that are pronounced like the accent in North Sweden) (Also, it wouldn't have been wrong if the girl that said she wanted to pronounce the "r" like in frensh, had done that. We have that sound too in the accent from South Sweden.) 😊
yes, but if the R was pronounced like in Skåne the rest of the prononciation fell off more than it already did. (For non native Swedes: She was the nicest judge ever; it was impossible to hear any resemblance to the phrase accept for the french guy 🤣)
Swedish is considered to be in the top 3 easiest languages for English speakers to learn. Mainly because of huge similarities in words and much less complexity compared to French or German. However Scandinavian languages can be difficult to pronounce especially the pitch accents.
Pretty sure Alexander translated the tongue twister wrong. It's a play on the fact that both the verb "to be" and the verbe "to follow" conjugate as "suis" as the first person singular present time. So while it could be translated as he says, it could also be translated as "I follow what I follow, and if I follow what I follow then what am I following ?" But it's more likely that it can go either : "I am what I follow, but if I follow what I am, then what am I" or "I follow what I am, but if I am what I follow, then what am I following ?" or any alternative you can think of. Which actually makes it kind of unsettling.
I think the French was easiest. Most sounds there are easily pronounced for most of them, and the one sound that could be hard to get perfect (suis) is comprehensible even when it's pronounced slightly wrong. With the Chinese, the Korean guy was the only one who came anywhere close to saying anything comprehensible. The Swedish girl and French guy both pronounced everything monotone and you can't understand anything they're saying.
It's actually not that hard because it is the same sound over and over again. So as long as you are able to do that then you can do the whole thing. There are harder tounge twisters in Swedish, at least for Swedish people. "X" is quite hard to pronounce in combination with s right after, so "sex laxar i en laxask" is quite a bit harder than the one they used here. Means "six salmons in a salmonbox"
As a Finland Swede, we pronounce the "sj" as a "sh" sound :D Själ (soul) Skäl (reason) Stjäl (steal/stealing) They are all pronounced the same way. With a "sh" sound 🤣 /ɧɛːl/
And as a Swede that doesn't speak "finlandsvenska", I would pronounce them all with the "sj" sound use by the girl in the video. Just a dialect thing :)
As a Finn I'd like to respond with just one word. It goes as follows: lentokonesuihkuturbiinimoottoriapumekaanikkoaliupseerioppilas I can not be bothered to actually translate it but google does a fairly decent job of it. aircraft jet turbine engine sub-mechanic non-commissioned officer apprentice
Flaggstångsknoppsputsarmaskinoperatörspraktikant (Flag pole tip polisher machine operator apprentice). There you have a swedish horrible word that none will most likely ever use but it exist none the less lol
@@assarstromblad3280 The beauty of a compound language is that you can make anything (more or less) into a word. You can just keep adding words together forever
@@eldafint Yep. So a competition about the longest words in a language is kinda useless when it comes to languages like finnish and swedish. It becomes more of a question about how logical the word is lol
Asians are so surprised when foreigners cant pronounce a simple word, but then comes their turn to try the scandinavian languages and I think they understand it more after that.
The french tongue twister doesn't mean only: "I'm what I am, and if I am what I am, who am I" The funny fact is that "je suis" means "I am" or "I follow" in french 😉 It could mean for example: "I am what I follow, and if I follow what I am, who am I ?" Or "I follow what I am and if I am what I follow, what do I follow ?" Etc... 🙂
Finnish is the GOAT language. No clue what's going on with it and so different from other languages. Especially how you casually stack vowels after eachother.
the swedish one is so easy if you know swedish. it's literally just the same "sj" sound over and over, which kinda defeats the purpose of a tongue twister..
It's not tho, if you try to do it fast you mess it up, the difficulty is reapeating that sound many times fast, like "Sju laxar i en lax ask" it's really short and repetitve but super hard to get it right
@@thatpandaz6094 yes ‘sex laxar i en laxask’ is genuinely difficult. but there you have waaay more consonant + vowel sounds that trip you up and make you mispronounce the s + [other letter] sounds, since they change throughout. the sj-sounds in sju sjösjuka sjömän sköts av sju sköna sjuksköterskor do not (even though it visibly looks like it because of the swedish language’s illogical decision of spelling the same sound in 22 different ways 😩). but i mean, maybe it’s more difficult for a swede with a different regional accent.. 🤷🏼
Then what do you think about this one (french one) : - Didon dîna, dit-on, de dix dos dodus de dix dodus dindons. - Si six scies scient six cyprès, Six cent six scies scient six cent six cyprès. - Cette taxe fixe excessive est fixée exprès à Aix par le fisc. - Trois gros rats grattent et grillent dans la grosse graisse grasse. - Dis-moi, gros gras grand grain d’orge, quand te dégrogragrangraindorgeras-tu ?

To be fair to you, this is difficult for those who don't like French, easy for those who already study the language and at an intermediate level for those who are new to French. But contemporary French has many dialects and is accessible today. Now these laryngeal languages like Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Estonian tonal musical languages like Chinese, Burmese, Thai, Lao Vietnamese, Mong etc are quite difficult than French, Inuit and difficult visceral guttural and musical sounds as well. And there is the anti-language Itkhuil, any Frenchman runs away from Itkhuil like anyone else, it was a language made not to be spoken in order to be studied as an anti-language. There are other languages that are very closed and worse than French. See you soon, health, peace. Goodbye. 😉😉😉😉🫂🫂🫂🫂🥂🥂💲💲🥂🥂🍾

About the swedish one, They were saying SJ is like SH, but it's not the same and we have SH too SJ would almost be like mixing SK and SH start, the swedish girl in the video pronounced SJ very MILD. It's not a completly UNIQE sound for sweden, but it's deffinetly not common in most languages. Americans can never pronounce the SJ sound for example. SJ could almost be it's own letter potentially, like Å,Ä,Ö but we'v settled for showing it with SJ.
You can expand the Swedish tounge twister: Sjuttisju sjösjuka sjömän sköttes av sju sköna sjuksköterskor på ett sjunkande skäpp. Translation: Seventy seven sea sick sailors were taken care of by seven beutiful nurses on a sinking ship. Here is another tounge twister which is shorther: Sex laxar i en laxask Translation: Six salmons in a salmon container.
@@xohyuunot exactly. It's a sound made by creating resistance using your tounge and lips. If you raise the middle part of the tounge to the roof of your mouth (think hissing like a cat) and simultaneously purse your lips, almost to a whistle but not quite, thats how you make the sj-sound.

The sh (the sound that exists in english) and the sch - sounds are different sounds. The different spellings I can think of are for now: Sch: sch, sk, sj, skj, ch, g Sh: sh, tj, stj, k. When an r is followed by an s it turns into a sh sound when speaking normally, as well. We should really standardize that... one letter for sch, one letter for sh.

But we also love the: Sex laxar i en laxask. The point for that one is you have to say it fast many times over. It’s designed to make Swedes completely trip over the words and fail, so would be fun hearing others try it.
It’s hard because the X is always strong/hard in Swedish. And pronounced roughly as eKs and then at the end it’s also strong but sK. So it flips the sound.

I think for foreigners, longer tongue twisters are harder since it is hard to critique pronounciation. For Thai we have a lot of very hard tongue twisters but this one is quite easy but I think you need to put tones for Thai just like Chinese because it is also a tonal language, and tones are very important for meaning and is what makes these tongue twisters hard.
I'm impressed by the french guy trying the swedish phrase. Had he known about the sj- and sk sounds hed pretty much nailed it.
Next time I wanna see them do "sex laxar i en laxask", which is one that's actually hard for natives too.

Nice to see a Swede with. Not easy with Å Ä Ö. How to pronounce in Swedish. Thought you all gave a good try. To pronounce it. ☺👍🏻
I'm a native Chinese speaker and am fluent in French. I'm super impressed with the Korean guy. His Chinese sounded almost native at the beginning. He only lost points because the tongue twister was long, and it seemed like as he kept going, he kind of got tired of trying that hard. His French was also not bad. His accent was thick, but the pronunciation (in terms of pronouncing the right stuff in a comprehensible way) wasn't bad at all. I'd be a happy prof if all my students could do that.

The funny thing about the Swedish tongue twister is that it’s only hard for foreigners because of the very Scandinavian sounds. It’s super easy for swedes to pronounce. If you want something that trips swedes up, say “sex laxar i en laxask” (literally “six salmon in a salmon box”). It is hard because is combines k-sound and s-sound with sometimes one being first and sometimes the other.

There’s a famous danish tongue twister, not for Danes, but for foreigners learning our language. It’s “rødgrød med fløde” which uses phonetic sounds of the “d” which are unique to the language. It was so difficult, that during WW2, it was used to spot nazi spy’s in Denmark as they would force them to pronounce the phrase, something only someone who grew up in Denmark would be able to pronounce.
They could have chosen
"Les chemises de l'archi duchesse sont elle sèches ou archi sèches"
Or even
"Un chasseur sachant chasser doit savoir chasser sans son chien"
But hey it was REALLY interesting 😄
Also i tough about it the whole video so ps: the thai lady is fkn adorable she made me smile the whole thing 😂❤
Why not "Ton tonton tond ton thon" or "Foin foie foi foire fois" or "Tintin tint un teint thym"?
The french one they picked was quite easy compared to the other ones, but maybe I'm biased.

The French guy actually pronounced the sentence close to what it would've sounded like 600 years ago (had all the words existed then), as that was before the consonant clusters merged to form the modern sounds. Back then, "sk" would've been pronounced "s-k", like in English "skin", and "sj" would've been "s-j", akin to a posh English pronunciation of "suit" or "super" ("syoot", "syooper").
The French tongue twister is a variant of a riddle:
"Je suis ce que je suis, mais je ne suis pas ce que je suis
car si j’étais ce que je suis, je ne serai plus ce que je suis.
Qui suis-je ?"
-
it plays with the meaning of "je suis", that can refer to the verb Être (to be) or Suivre (to follow)
So in English it'd say:
"I am what I am, but I am not what I follow
For if I was what I follow, I would not be what I am anymore.
Who am I?"
-
For those seeking the answer: it's a man in a funeral procession (he "is" alive and "follow" a dead)

The swedish one means (more accurately) “seven seasick seamen were nursed by seven pretty nurses.”
sailor is the correct term for sjömän🤓
@@ActuallyMaxx both are correct but one sounds better in this context. Seamen sounds much more accurate.
Seamen when you speak sounds alot like semen, so I understand why she chose to say sailors
@@crazycupcakeize Just translate the word "sjömän" and you'll get sailor, simple as that
The Swedish one is even difficult for us Swedes as well, mainly because there are small differences in the sounds that can trip us up.
However, this classic Swedish tongue twister is even more devilish for foreigners due to the fact that the Sj sounds as well as the U sound are not very common in other languages. And to throw in an extra cherry on top for the difficulty scale; k before a vowel makes a "ch" sound, with the Sk in these ones making a different kind of "ch" sound. And of course, Ö and Ä nobody will on their first go as they are not just O and A but their own letters.

the hardest one to pronounce (fast) for me as Swedish is "kvistfritt kvastskaft" the one in the clip is easy for a native speaker.
Pretty sure Alexander translated the tongue twister wrong. It's a play on the fact that both the verb "to be" and the verbe "to follow" conjugate as "suis" as the first person singular present time.
So while it could be translated as he says, it could also be translated as "I follow what I follow, and if I follow what I follow then what am I following ?"
But it's more likely that it can go either :
"I am what I follow, but if I follow what I am, then what am I" or "I follow what I am, but if I am what I follow, then what am I following ?" or any alternative you can think of. Which actually makes it kind of unsettling.
As a Norwegian the Swedish was ok, some I didn’t understand but Chinese was the easiest tbh
Yeah im Danish and it was pretty easy compared to ours
I think the French was easiest. Most sounds there are easily pronounced for most of them, and the one sound that could be hard to get perfect (suis) is comprehensible even when it's pronounced slightly wrong. With the Chinese, the Korean guy was the only one who came anywhere close to saying anything comprehensible. The Swedish girl and French guy both pronounced everything monotone and you can't understand anything they're saying.

It's actually not that hard because it is the same sound over and over again. So as long as you are able to do that then you can do the whole thing. There are harder tounge twisters in Swedish, at least for Swedish people. "X" is quite hard to pronounce in combination with s right after, so "sex laxar i en laxask" is quite a bit harder than the one they used here. Means "six salmons in a salmonbox"
As a Finland Swede, we pronounce the "sj" as a "sh" sound :D

Skäl (reason)
Stjäl (steal/stealing)
They are all pronounced the same way. With a "sh" sound 🤣 /ɧɛːl/

Although to add, Words starting with Tj like "Tjäle" (ground frost, permafrost), or "Tjäna" (earn) I would use the "sh" or "sch" sound

@@thatpandaz6094 yes ‘sex laxar i en laxask’ is genuinely difficult. but there you have waaay more consonant + vowel sounds that trip you up and make you mispronounce the s + [other letter] sounds, since they change throughout. the sj-sounds in sju sjösjuka sjömän sköts av sju sköna sjuksköterskor do not (even though it visibly looks like it because of the swedish language’s illogical decision of spelling the same sound in 22 different ways 😩). but i mean, maybe it’s more difficult for a swede with a different regional accent.. 🤷🏼

To be fair to you, this is difficult for those who don't like French, easy for those who already study the language and at an intermediate level for those who are new to French.
But contemporary French has many dialects and is accessible today.
Now these laryngeal languages like Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Estonian tonal musical languages like Chinese, Burmese, Thai, Lao Vietnamese, Mong etc are quite difficult than French, Inuit and difficult visceral guttural and musical sounds as well.
And there is the anti-language Itkhuil, any Frenchman runs away from Itkhuil like anyone else, it was a language made not to be spoken in order to be studied as an anti-language.
There are other languages that are very closed and worse than French.

The sh sound can in Swedish be: sh, sk, sj, stj and I don’t think there’s any more
You forgot skj
The sh (the sound that exists in english) and the sch - sounds are different sounds. The different spellings I can think of are for now:
Sch: sch, sk, sj, skj, ch, g
Sh: sh, tj, stj, k.
When an r is followed by an s it turns into a sh sound when speaking normally, as well.
We should really standardize that... one letter for sch, one letter for sh.
the hard one is swedish because *sju* its so hard on the prononciation;the korean not so hard because i have been learned how to prononce the alphabet;chinese the same thing with korean;the thai not to much hard so easy;the frensh i can say it more then 3 times because i am from morocco and frensh its the second language we use in morocco💝

Im suprised that they didnt take a "typical swede" as a Swede. Its funny because alot of people do think we are all tall and blonde here.
as a born swede, i have never been able to do that tongue twister, it is very difficult even to native speakers. pair that with ÅÄÖ and SJ and SK sounds its pretty much impossible for non native speakers.
