I lost touch with a good friend also from NY who was born and raised in the U.S in foster homes, never getting adopted. English was his first language. When he aged out, he did some hunting on his background and family and it turned out he was of Dominican parents. He flew out there for a year or so and when he came back, the dude spoke perfect Spanish with the heaviest D.R accent I had ever heard. He’s a very successful dude somewhere out there, I’m sure of it.
Jbbh Yhhn I say yes, cause he didn’t speak a lick of Spanish before he left and he learned it. Idk what the circumstances were, but I’m sure for him to learn it that quick, he had to have forced himself to speak nothing but Spanish during his time there. It takes a long time to learn any language no matter how gifted you are. I’m sure there were still words he didn’t quite know yet, but when it came to simple vocabulary to hold back and forth conversations with no confusion, he had it down. You couldn’t tell he just learned Spanish and I’m a Spanish speaker, first language. It was the craziest thing ever.
Reporter: Hi, this is Felix de Jesús. We're here with Nate McLouth of the Baltimore Orioles. First of all, how are you doing and how's your health? Nate: Good, thank you. I'm happy playing for Baltimore. We're here in NY for 3 important games. Reporter: You obviously started your career with the Atlanta Braves. You also played for the Pirates, but injuries have been a problem. Nate: I don't know, but I'm happy as an Oriole. Like I said, we have a great team and we're ready. Reporter: How has Buck Showalter used you in recent games? Nate: Well, I'm here playing everyday. Batting 3rd, 6th, 7th, playing left field, etc. Reporter: So basically we're seeing the same Nate McLouth that we saw with the Pirates and Braves? Nate: Yeah. I'm getting there. Reporter: This Orioles team, many say that they're playing against the Yankees which will be difficult games... What's your team's mentality? Nate: That's not important to us, we're going to play our game and we'll see what happens. Reporter: And what's "your game"? Nate: You'll see! 😂 Reporter: You guys have a few pitchers who are up and coming such as Zach Britton. What does the team need to do even if you don't win the division in order to reach the playoffs? Nate: We need to continue pitching well, hitting and we can win. Reporter: Another question, Nate. You speak Spanish so well. How did you learn it? Nate: With the guys in the minors. I've got a lot of teachers ☺ Reporter: I imagine that many are Dominican because of the accent. Nate: Yeah, a lot of Dominicans and some Venezuelans as well. Reporter: Lastly, Tampa is in your division as well. What do you have to say about them? Nate: They're a great team. They have great pitchers. Hard team to beat. Reporter: This Orioles teams, can it realistically make the playoffs? Nate: I believe so. Reporter: Well, good luck this season Nate to you and your team. Do you want to give a shout out to all the people who watch "Semana Deportiva"? Nate: Oh so you're Dominican too?! 😂 Reporter: Yes 😂 Nate: Hello to all my Dominican people.
lou Albino se dice dominicano como tambien con acento dominicano. What's your anger? Relax dude. En Dominicano "ta bien dicho Trap Latino. No le haga caso a ese amargao."
The combination of a white guy speaking Dominican Spanish and the wobbliness of the video made me convinced that I was stoned. I don't even smoke weed.
I remember taking field trips to Mexican restaurants for Spanish Club in high school with him. I think it was Flamingos in Muskegon and some place in Hart? Been a long time.
I agree with Quique. Also he may not have noticed because perhaps he just learned Spanish and he doesn't understand the spectrum of accents so he may hear dominicans and think that is the legit Spanish.
@@jh9543 I didn't say otherwise. I just mentioned that perhaps he doesn't know the variety in Spanish accents since the only Spanish he learned was from Dominicans.
soy un americano y yo no conocer muy problemas en Espagnol. Es relativamente parecido a el frances y por lo tanto muy facil para mi de apprendar al idiomas.
I know this may be asking too much. But, I've watched this close to 20 times. Can anyone write in English what Nate and the Reporter are saying. I am so impressed with his ability to speak so fluently. Much obliged.

Ok, ok. Spanish is from Spain. That's where the language originated, so someone speaking Spanish is not really a big deal BUT .. he's speaking Dominican. Wow! Like, real Dominican. Like close your eyes then open then and you'll be like "WTF?" Dominican. Dear God.
If you told me that there's a dominican dude behind the camera and that he's just moving his lips I would 100% believe it lol He doesn't only know spanish very well but he has an unbelievable dominican accent LOOOOOL

You could tell that this man ate Mangú for a very long time! Honestly the best Dominican Spanish I have ever heard come out of an American.
Ernireg3 this dude kills it with the ladies when he goes to DR

This guy talks perfect DR spanish just like Vigo Mortensen talks español de Argentina
viggo mortensen lived down in Buenos Aires, became a fan of san lorenzo.
He sounds more Dominican than me and I'm Dominican. LOL!
Pero papa lol
I know him personally and he is not that good at Spanish anymore
I know!! Me too!
Facts. Same! 🙈
OMG, even when he said Baltimore and Orioles he said it like a dominican! UNREAL.😱
i had to watch this twice because i couldnt believe it
Adrian Roman same here bro like literally perfect spanish. 100%
Adrian Roman me too I thought it was a voice over
His voice is so smooth, very relaxing to hear.
"Ah tu ere dominicano tambien"😂😂😂 im dead!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bury me.... muerto!
I think I read that he learned Spanish to communicate better with his Spanish speaking teammates. Gotta respect that.
Lo que mas me sorprende es que se escucha mas dominicano que muchos que estan en las grandes ligas jaja
Jajajaja morí cuando dijo « Y tú eres dominicano también?».
*When a white person tries Mangu for the first time*
Juan Leiton omg I’m dead weak lmfao 😂
Dude since the foundation there's always been white in the island.
You can tell this dude ate mangu con salami every morning
It’s like a Dominican is speaking over his voice lol
I showed this to my Dominican friend and he said the exact same thing. “That’s not him” hilarious!
I’m so happy, he sounds so Dominican!
Ese es un ''tíguere'' de Santo Domingo. Le felicito por el talento, el esfuerzo y el respeto!
His dominican spanish is impecable wow!!!
Me encantó. He estado tratando de aprender español por mi mismo y espero poder hablar español tan bien algún día!

Wow el habla Dominicano perfecto 👌🏽
Jeffskeez _ no entiendo tu punto.
Trap Nation Latino What the fuck is dominicano? It's Spanish.
lou Albino cuando hablamos de idiomas y usamos en termino Dominicano, nos referimos a el acento! Que tan difícil entender 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Is 2018
Trap Nation Latino We say exactly what we mean in the real world.
lou Albino se dice dominicano como tambien con acento dominicano. What's your anger? Relax dude. En Dominicano "ta bien dicho Trap Latino. No le haga caso a ese amargao."
I swear I thought this fake. I still can't believe it. Nate de lo mio!!! 😂😂
as a white boy who struggles with Spanish, I stand in awe of this man
Cuando Nate pregunta “ah tu ere Dominicano también?” me encantó, fue como si el se considerada Dominicano al decir “también” 😂
The combination of a white guy speaking Dominican Spanish and the wobbliness of the video made me convinced that I was stoned.
I don't even smoke weed.
Not gonna lie, I am and do. Estoy aqui contigo tigre
you're missing out
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I remember taking field trips to Mexican restaurants for Spanish Club in high school with him. I think it was Flamingos in Muskegon and some place in Hart? Been a long time.

He is white Dominican I watched this years ago never gets old 😂
He went from cute to irresistible.
BRO I HAD TO WATCH THIS WAY TOO MANY TIMES TO BELIEVE IT DAMN!
F'kn badass! Love you brotha! You're invited to the next carne asada!
He tough the interviewer was not dominican bc the interviewer does not sound like a dominican. So this guy is more dominican than the interviewer😁
Thats because the interviewer talks like an educated dominican and Nate talks like a dominican from a guetto.
Im dominican and I can tell both ways of speaking appart. Both talk like a Dominican, but just two different kinds of a dominican.
I agree with Quique. Also he may not have noticed because perhaps he just learned Spanish and he doesn't understand the spectrum of accents so he may hear dominicans and think that is the legit Spanish.
@@edwinfndz he played baseball in a DR leagues every winter and all his teammates were Dominican so that’s sheet he learned
@@jh9543 I didn't say otherwise. I just mentioned that perhaps he doesn't know the variety in Spanish accents since the only Spanish he learned was from Dominicans.
soy un americano y yo no conocer muy problemas en Espagnol. Es relativamente parecido a el frances y por lo tanto muy facil para mi de apprendar al idiomas.
Now I have seen everything!!!
