      I highly recommend learning the prettiest languages ever Icelandic / Norse / Dutch / English / Norwegian / Gothic etc, which are the languages of the future, so all learners should be learning these 2gether, they are so heavenly with the prettiest words and sounds and the coolest and most modern pronunciations and aspects ever, and, Norse and Icelandic are the most alpha languages ever, definitely a must-learn for every learner, once one discovers these gorgeous languages, one wishes one would have discovered / learnt them sooner - I started learning languages on my own like one year ago, and I am already upper advanced level in Dutch and advanced level in Norwegian and upper intermediate level in Icelandic / Norse / German and mid intermediate level in French / Portuguese / Italian / Swedish and intermediate level in Welsh and upper beginner level in multiple other languages, so I highly recommend learning many easy and pretty languages, like I do, instead of only learning 1 or 2 impossible languages that don’t even sound good that one is never going to be native speaker level in, anyway, as choosing wisely is key to being a successful polyglot!
      Danish is one of the prettiest languages, but Icelandic / Norse / English / Dutch / Norwegian are the absolute prettiest languages ever, and this truly is an objective fact, as prettiness and great language construction and great word construction and great letter combinations and great sound combinations and pretty word endings etc are objective facts, just like the great sméłłs of fruits and flowers, and just like talent in music and skills in songwriting and pretty melodies etc, which are all facts, so all should be learning them 2gether, as they are way too pretty not to know!
      By the way, some of the other info is very untrue, all wøm’n are the exact opposite of cómpliments / beautiful / attractive etc, and ppl don’t even understand what things such as attraction are, which do not exist for ppl, and there is no way to ‘dethrone’ ppl as ppl are the exact opposite of kings etc, and we the Alphas (me and the pure protectors aka the alphas) are the only beings who belong on the thrones etc aka the only Royalty!

    Btw, what's up with Spanish and that weird thing on top of the "n"? It's such a weird language! And objects have gender, meaning sex. Oh! And the conjugations are so weird! I'm gonna learn Portuguese or Italian instead. Plus, Spanish is so basic! Everybody speaks it. And as I only learn languages to be different than others, I'm avoiding this one.

    As a multilingual semichad, I can confirm that one of the best reasons to learn new languages is indeed to talk shit about other people without them understanding. When I switched to American with my Canadian friends and started talking shit about them, they all left the chat in confusion. It was definitely worth learning American by watching Language Simp on UA-cam. 10/10 would recommend.

    Absolutely hilarious and loved the last video too. Although, I’d cut Steve Kaufmann slack in comparison to all the other “polyglots”. He doesn’t use a script, often has live interviews in different target languages, doesn’t post the classic “shock native speakers in public” trope, etc… He’s just a genuinely nice old man that likes to learn languages and gives genuine advice haha. He’s also honest that he’s not fluent in all of his languages and admits that he often forget EVERYTHING he had learned in a TL if he hasn’t studied it in a while. The worst he does, honestly, is he pushes LingQ as a learning platform (of which he’s the owner). But, comparatively, the logic behind LingQ makes some pedagogical sense (specifically Krashen’s Input Hypothesis), unlike DuoLingo…

      @The Queen Ah, understandable. Though it is completely reasonable for us to care more about Ukraine than say, Somalia, Ethiopia, Yemen, Sudan, etc. Ukraine is in our Hemisphere. In our area of influence. The invasion of Ukraine directly affects us Americans. If you go to Kenya, you will probably see more people talking about Somalia or Ethiopia than you would Ukraine. It's not good necessarily, but it's entirely reasonable. I, my family, and most Americans are not significantly affected by some conflicts in Somalia. In terms of war crimes, yes we have done messed up shit. But to compare our crimes to the Spanish, the British, the Germans, the Russians, the Japanese, and tons more, is simply stupid. We did bad stuff, but agree or disagree, I would say we're on the good side of history. I've always thought America should focus internally rather than externally, because at our current rate we'll be killing eachother like it's 1862 in 2024.

    I know the frustration of learning a language for years and years and still not being really advanced. But that usually happens because we are used to learning relatively easy languages like English, Spanish, etc. When you pick a more complicated and unusual one it feels like you're finally really learning a foreign language and not one that's like 70% cognate with yours.
