@@closebitsI am german, and I know it's a difficult language to learn. Keep going, most people really appreciate you trying. Also I have heard better german from tourists or immigrants than actual germans ;)
I started learning a little bit of Russian and Ukrainian over the past year and a half, and whenever I meet people from Slavic countries I can kinda sorta have a conversation with them and it makes them feel so at ease. This applies to every culture and every language, especially when they're a foreigner in America. Because a lot of Americans are fuckin mean and get mad when you don't speak English
This guy is literally the most wholesome person on the internet. I watch these videos when I feel like things are getting bad in the world and it reminds me there are good people still out there
Many people don't understand the level of dedication it takes to learn a language. You and Laoshu inspired me to start making videos in different languages.
I think Duolingo is a great option to start learning a language. If you do it for 15 minutes a day you'll learn quite fast. It also depends on your dedication to learn a language. I started for myself around 40 days ago with Mandarin (actually a very easy language) and now i can follow at least a third to a half of the conversations Xiaoma has in Mandarin
Exactly, the 1% may all be looking out for themselves but we as common folk just have to endure and keep one another safe and stick together, no matter the preconceived boundaries
It's why I am here, for sure. I speak 4 languages, and could never imagine being able to do what he does. He has a rare gift of raw intelligence and social intelligence... they rarely exist together on this level.
Not to sound like a sad old man that I am....but seeing these videos restores my faith in humanity. Seeing other nationalities embrace someone from a complete alient culture speak to them in their own language always warms my soul. "We are only separated by the smallest margins...usually the ability to communicate effectively" - Me, just now...after thinking about something smart to say!
I wish more cultures were like it, yet many people I said judgemental if someone's speaking a different language they don't like it synopsis to see someone landing at and sharing it remember as a kid that's the old ladies on the bus that we're Italian and Dutch that spoke different language anglo-saxons would get mad and tell them to speak speak English or go home sadly mini areas is still like that instead of embracing other cultures
You are, without a doubt, the exact thing that this world needs. Your bring cultures together, and create bonds, laughter and love, and all it takes is trying to understand each other. You are truly a Saint to me.
Ari is my most favorite Polyglot. Able to transcend language barriers to prove that we are all just human beings. I wish learning languages was easier. There would probably be less animosity in the world if we could understand one and other more. This man is truly gifted at it.
@@CoolScratcher sure but my point is that there's no reason to belive that only removing the language barrier would change much things for the better regarding animosity between countries, if not even make it worse. English was only an example.
He's been called out multiple times by professional linguists with PHDs for being a fake polyglot. He learns just enough to create these 'Natives shocked by white guy' videos.
That’s my favorite thing about living in foreign countries- learning the language and connecting with people who think “ THAT guy would never learn my language”, then I speak it! I have gotten plenty of little perks and discounts in South Korea, Japan and Iceland because of this. It’s addictive!
As an anthropologist, I'm thrilled! Notice the way they immediately connect! as soon as they see that he is able to leave behind the typical superiority attitude of the average person from the United States, notice the genuine smiles and the instant trust in him, I am amazed and this video made me happy! If you are frome the US, GO AHEAD AND LEARN OTHER LANGUAGE!
Same as British people. Stereotypically we charge a country not knowing a word of the language or any culture, get obnoxiously drunk and just ruin the place. Always make an effort to indulge myself with the locals and it always makes them happy
This channel is fantastic. So frequently exposing people for what they are as a person. From hasty, suspicious looks, thoughts, and words to genuine smiles, humility, laughter and willingness to share in less than 15 seconds. Feelings of good will and a happy memory from a kind stranger who became a friend. That's who they really are. That's who you really are. Don't forget it.
When the biggest barrier between us is a language, we are separated by so little difference and yet still feel so divided. Humanity is one. When we can figure that out we might begin to stop making so many people in this world suffer for no good reason.
One of the things I've always observed and loved about your content...is how proud and happy people are when they hear you speak their languages so well...and the sadness & shame I feel as an American because when a foreigner comes here and learns our language well, they're still mocked and made fun of by so many of our peers. Wish our nation was more open & proud in the ways other cultures clearly are.
It amazes me how ignorant some people can be to criticize a person being able to speak English well enough to understand even if it’s broken, like half of America can barely even speak English correctly yet they’re quick to judge someone who can be understood in their second language well enough to critique them😑
@@GamingLoreLibrary America really is a melting pot of cultures, always confused me when people apart of what is supposed to be UNITED are some of the most divided and hateful
This is a perfect example of what happens when people can communicate and the language barrier is broken. People open up and socialize as a result and misconceptions suddenly break down. If we could do this easier then we'd have less problems in the world. Keep it up man.
Ari should be awarded as “The Greatest Peacemaker Polyglot”. Nobody in the world could beat him of learning so many languages and could master the languages as if he is a native speaker. Good job, Ari! Can’t wait to watch your next video! ❤
I show your videos to my 5 and 4 year kids and they loooooove it. They pretend to speak along with you each time. It's so great to "visit" all these different cultures! I tell my kids that this is how the world should work ; everyone treating one another with respect and smiles
I only speak Spanish but im never shy when starting a conversation with strangers who speak Spanish. It really does show you're genuinely interested in their culture and is a phenomenal ice breaker, as is represented in these videos! When I first started learning i asked one of my Mexican friends if people would feel insulted if i approached them in Spanish and was told no, that most people will tell if youre being genuine they will be very receptive!
I think its really nice how nearly everyones dispostion changes into laughter as soon as you speak their native tongue. Just goes to show our societal boundaries we impose on ourselves can be broke down easily.
the hero that nobody asked for, but the whole world deserves. Single handedly shutting down racism and spreading joy. I love seeing people recognize you now and appreciate how great of a person you are. god bless.
I love how after speaking these languages. These people go out of their way to offer more, or give you free food. Its respect; "you took the time to learn my language and I want to thank you"
Ari! Xiaoma! Thank for inspiring me. I’ve been watching for years. I am now learning Mandrin, and also some Amharic and Oromo! You’ve seriously inspired me. So thank you.
As a german who is learning the persian language, I know the feeling of breaking a barrier between people of different cultures and races Its such a nice feeling to communicate in peoples native language and making them smile And I always had nice conversations with Iranian or Afghan People who speak dari 😁
Language and food are the true way of bringing people together. I think Thailand perfected it with Gastrodiplomacy but as you can see in this video that speaking local languages has everyone laughing, smiling, and bringing people together.
I’ve known about this dude forever on UA-cam and to this day his videos still make me insanely happy and I’m smiling the whole time. This is just some of the most pure cultural appreciation and friendly connection between people with language it’s amazing.
Man these are the most heartwarming videos lol. Everyone is so surprised and appreciative. I love your channel, we need more positive channels like yours!
Low key the Kenyans have crazy style, the jewelery and cuts are absolutely fantastic aesthetics, and they were so warm to you once you broke the language barrier. Love your videos man, keep highlighting the good possible in the world
He learns these languages so fast it's incredible! It may be "only a bit" according to him, but it's enough to hold a conversation and ask questions which is amazing.
Am I lying if I say that he learns different languages not just for the great company of other cultures, but also for the free food 😂😂. Love him. He makes so many people happy.
As a Haitian you legit surprised me with how understandable your creole is! Wow! Im on my way to being a polyglot as well, but man you have languages up in here that most people dont even know exist. Really inspiring, mesi anpil!
I was thinking exactly the same! Those reactions are just heart warming and Laoshus videos had alot of those. This is pure gold. The masais more or less adopted him.
You can see how showing even a little respect and being sincere changes people and they respond in kind. When you are sincere it creates an impact beyond words. Good video.
As a frequent traveler, I can attest to the fact that anywhere in the world, people's faces light up if you make an attempt to speak their language. It opens their hearts right away.
Whenever I’m having a shit day, I turn on your content cause it makes me feel a little less lonely. I love watching you break that language barrier and be included in these communities, and I love how touched they always are that you’re so into their culture. People are people, no matter their culture or environments, they are human and we are social animals who love connection in the end. It’s just wonderful to see that tension broken, especially when they’re here in America and probably missing home… having to deal with us all day, I’m sure they love an American who isn’t ignorant to the rest of the world (like myself lol)
You made me cry like a baby...when I see how much mastering the language of your the people you meet makes such joyful moments of love. I want to do the same now ! But I only speak about 4 languages today : native french & italian, english quite good and finally dutch...
One of your best video. Very educational: language connects. We are all just human. Very emotional, how happy they all are. Respect for your language skills
It makes me almost weep with joy when people from everywhere around the world open up to you when you speak their language. They are so happy and welcoming and suddenly see you as one of them, not apart, or someone to be guarded with. It’s truly amazing and so utterly human. I wish we all had this capacity for multiple languages.
I am so amazed how he learns languages. Like so many English people I only know English. My wife amazes me daily on languages. She knows English and French fluently, is really good on Spanish, though she says what she knows is conversational Spanish, she can get by in Italian and knows some Russian. We are making sure our children know English, French, and Spanish. Granted they are only 3 and 5 but they can understand all three and speak all three. My wife is working with our daughter, the oldest on learning how to write in all three. It amazes me they can watch and understand tv shows in all three languages. Granted, those two and my wife leave me in the dust, but I am very slowly picking up a few words here and there. I just am honest with them, I tell them I want them to know more than one language like their mom, not to be like me and only know one. It has been super fun watching them learn languages. It has been fun watching my parents learn words with them. I really need to work on learning more.
After working the past 2 years with a Nigerian who has taught me some slang and bits of his language I can honestly say they respect and love you so much for embracing them and their culture
I reallllly wanna learn languages like you do because I love seeing how it makes people so happy, like with music too, it opens people up! Idk if I have the knowledge to learn all those languages but you've inspired me and many others to spread joy
Easiest way to make new friends is to show the slightest interest about their culture. Knowing just a couple words in their native language instantly opens them up. No matter where they're from.
I'm a french flight attendant and I see everyday how people change when you speak in their language. Especially spanish and italian people who have difficulties with english. I love how they become so happy and friendly when you speak in their language. I'm very impressed by your skills! I enjoy to learn new ones but this many languages is amazing!
Grinning like a fool from ear-to-ear watching this, such a beautiful video. When different cultures realise they understand one another, we realise we are all just people!
This is how you truly connect with people of other ethnicities and cultural backgrounds. Warms my heart to just see people laughing and having a good time in a world where everyone seems so divided. Keep doing what you do, you reach a lot of people's hearts. I hope to do the same as you one day and i'm currently learning Japanese so i can connect with the people and culture when i go there :)
the greatest kind of respect you can show to peoples from other country is to learn and speak their native language, man, you can see them so happy, there is like a true connection between you and these peoples. truly heartwarming. btw I'm french 😉
The triple head turn from the Nigerians in the clothing shop is one of the best reactions ever.
I literally just paused the video after they turned around to come comment that lol. Love this guy and the positivity he spreads
The Yoruba dialect!

The joy and the smiles that come to the faces of those he surprises, it's so much fun to watch.
One of your best video. Very educational: language connects. We are all just human. Very emotional, how happy they all are. Respect for your language skills
It makes me almost weep with joy when people from everywhere around the world open up to you when you speak their language. They are so happy and welcoming and suddenly see you as one of them, not apart, or someone to be guarded with. It’s truly amazing and so utterly human. I wish we all had this capacity for multiple languages.
This is such a lovely video - I've seen many of the clips but to have them all in one place brings such pleasure. Bravo sir!
Thus young man is one of the sharpest people I have seen.. picks up languages super quickly
I am so amazed how he learns languages. Like so many English people I only know English. My wife amazes me daily on languages. She knows English and French fluently, is really good on Spanish, though she says what she knows is conversational Spanish, she can get by in Italian and knows some Russian. We are making sure our children know English, French, and Spanish. Granted they are only 3 and 5 but they can understand all three and speak all three. My wife is working with our daughter, the oldest on learning how to write in all three. It amazes me they can watch and understand tv shows in all three languages. Granted, those two and my wife leave me in the dust, but I am very slowly picking up a few words here and there. I just am honest with them, I tell them I want them to know more than one language like their mom, not to be like me and only know one. It has been super fun watching them learn languages. It has been fun watching my parents learn words with them. I really need to work on learning more.
After working the past 2 years with a Nigerian who has taught me some slang and bits of his language I can honestly say they respect and love you so much for embracing them and their culture
Thanks bro really cool to see some of your old videos again. Hope you and your loved ones are doing well.❤
Thanks!
For the Maasai to within five minutes say “treat this like your home” is next level legendary
I reallllly wanna learn languages like you do because I love seeing how it makes people so happy, like with music too, it opens people up! Idk if I have the knowledge to learn all those languages but you've inspired me and many others to spread joy
Easiest way to make new friends is to show the slightest interest about their culture.
Knowing just a couple words in their native language instantly opens them up. No matter where they're from.
This guy does everything!
I'm a french flight attendant and I see everyday how people change when you speak in their language. Especially spanish and italian people who have difficulties with english. I love how they become so happy and friendly when you speak in their language.
I'm very impressed by your skills! I enjoy to learn new ones but this many languages is amazing!
I love their reactions, much love!
Grinning like a fool from ear-to-ear watching this, such a beautiful video. When different cultures realise they understand one another, we realise we are all just people!
This is one of the best ways to overcome the ethnicity barrier. Wish I could learn so many languages.
Beautiful how he made the yoruba speaker say he made him feel so proud ❤ He also brings alot of smiles to people's faces ❤
This is how you truly connect with people of other ethnicities and cultural backgrounds. Warms my heart to just see people laughing and having a good time in a world where everyone seems so divided. Keep doing what you do, you reach a lot of people's hearts. I hope to do the same as you one day and i'm currently learning Japanese so i can connect with the people and culture when i go there :)
I love the way they all light up when you start speaking, just goes to show the importance of being understood and appreciated
Love the sound effects especially at 1:20 guys face😂
The face of meme "hehe boi"
Hehe boiii
These videos make me genuinely happy.
I wonder how much free food this guy has got over the years haha
the greatest kind of respect you can show to peoples from other country is to learn and speak their native language, man, you can see them so happy, there is like a true connection between you and these peoples. truly heartwarming. btw I'm french 😉
Your neapolitan accent is incredible!
You're an absolute legend for learning this many languages! I can barely speak my native (╥﹏╥)
