    I highly recommend trying the 7 day free trial of Pimsleur - imp.i271380.net/YgN9kJ
    I'm learning Arabic and Russian super fast on it, and you'll support your favorite Alpha Male.

      I haven´t tried Pimsleur but it worked very well on some students I´ve had. I don´t know if it is because of their talent of the method itself though.

      I can not even explain how terrible this is, so much so that it’s extremely hilarious not to mention excessively funny and ludicrously creative 😂😂😂😂😂, je ne kiffe cette vidéo que trop, bien j’ai horreur de quelques accents 😂😂😂
      Puisque tu parle l’arabe et l’espagnol, et pour rigoler encore un peu, tu pourrais essayer de faire dire quelques mots à quelqu’un qui ne parlerait QUE français, comme le mot désire (رغبة) avec un R à la française: غ et un R à l’espagnole: ر dans un seul mot 😂 et puis il y a aussi غربة (to live in foreign countries) or برغي (une vis que tu tournerais avec un screwdriver, مفكّ براغي ou un tourne-vis).
      To have fun with most western people try getting to say the work for rabbi in Levantine Arabic : حخام , most westerners don’t make the difference between ح et خ , alors avec un mot qui a les 2 😅😅😅 should be hilarious

      Danish doesn’t sound like potato in throat at all - but Norwegian has prettier spelling tho! I am learning French, but the pronunciation is too nasal, so I never liked the standard French pronunciation - Breton and Gallo sound way better than French as they are more toned-down and less nasal, so I highly recommend learning these languages and also the prettiest languages ever Icelandic / Norse / Dutch / Norwegian / Gothic / Faroese which are as pretty / refined / poetic as English and too pretty not to know! I am also learning Danish and all other Germanic languages, and also the modern Celtic languages - and many other pretty languages! (I guess the reason why many say that Danish sounds like potatoes is, because spoken Danish isn’t easy to understand, plus it has lots of glottal stops, so maybe to most foreigners it sounds like potatoes!)

It basically means "Let's make arabic a lingua franca 'cause it's the best and our effort of making esperanto proved that nothing can't beat arabic as an ultimate gigachad alpha male world language". Seems quite long, but this is fault of many vowels smashed in there. True polish wi-fi passwords words are only made up from consonants. Glad I could be of any help.

    I have to learn French at school(because I'm German and WW2)... I feel so much pain learning this language. One thing I found Interesting is that you said septant, octant, nonnonte like in Suisse or Belgium than soixante-dix, quatre vings and quatre vings-dix as they do in France or Canada.

    • @D0rlisok
      @D0rlisok 4 місяці тому

      I had to learn German and I deeply regret that I didn’t put more effort into my learning. At that age it was hard to tell myself that if I did things correctly I could go out of school with a decent level of German, but what a wasted opportunity in retrospect :( if you have any interest for French, try to get as fluent as possible whilst you can. It’s harder later on in life

    Great video! Vivid and funny. To correct one thing: nasals are consonants, and the french language has exactly the same ones as english or german, they are [m] and [n]. What laypersons and most language teachers alike call nasals are the nasalized vowels, and that is the correct linguists' naming convention. These vowels are not nasals (that would mean: air flow goes only through the nose, mouth is shut or mouth stream is barred by the tongue) but only nasalized (that means: air flow goes additionally through the nose, but mouth is open, and tongue is only partly or not at all obstructing the air flow). (Forgive me that I took this detail serious :-)

      I am learning French, but the pronunciation is too nasal, so I never liked the standard French pronunciation - Breton and Gallo sound way better than French as they are more toned-down and less nasal, so I highly recommend learning these languages and also the prettiest languages ever Icelandic / Norse / Dutch / Norwegian / Gothic / Faroese which are as pretty / refined / poetic as English and too pretty not to know!

    I appreciate that you included the Canadian word for 'car' and the Swiss/Belgian versions of the numbers 70 and 90 to improve people's French. But I take this opportunity to remind watchers that contrary to popular belief in France, octante for 80 is not used anywhere. The real word used is huitante, and that's only in some parts of French-speaking Switzerland, not in Belgium.
