    Notice that Polish and Spanish pronunciation are both very similar. Why? Because we both don't have the "schwa sound", we pronounce strong "A's" and "E's", and we have hard "R's". We even have the same words with similar meaning like serio, gratis, fotografia, historia, magia, debil, pandemia, plaża (playa), cebula (cebolla), kolega (colega) etc. Even when a Polish and a Spanish-speaking person both speak English their accents might sound similar in many ways.

    In this one, many of the words picked are not native to any of these Euro languages. So when they all import the same thing, they will mimic the same sound. Thus it's not as different as we expected. If it's names instead, it would be more diversified, because Euro languages share a lot of names, but all have their own version of it, like William vs Wilhelm vs Guillermo. Or simply reading the same name with different languages will be quite different, Roger Federer. I can hear Swiss German already, Imao

      Your example between William and it's equivalents is interesting, because once in France there was both William and Guillaume depending on the dialects (William in Normandy and Guillaume around Paris). Well, France had multiples languages in the past, especially in the middle ages, but here both pronunciations were from dialects of the Oil language (spoken more or less in the northern half of France back then, and considered to be Old French), thus more or less the same language. Most Oil dialects were easily intelligibles.

D'ailleurs, on estime que 56 à 64% du lexique anglais actuel est étymologiquement français

    It was a fun show, as usual. And it shows that American brand names often don't change much in European countries. It would be interesting to see if this is still the same in Asian countries. Plus it would be a fun show to see how other country's own major brand names are pronounced worldwide. For instance German companies Adidas, Volkswagen, BMW, and Nivea, are all pronounced differently in the U.S. than in Germany.

      French derived words accounts for about a quarter of the entire English vocabulary and another quarter or so of English's vocabulary has Latin roots (which means they generally have cognates in the various Romance languages, often with the closest cognate being.... you guessed it, French). The thing is, most of these French-derived words tend to come from Old French (including Old Norman) and Middle French so they've had a fair bit of time to acquire anglicized pronunciations.
      French only rarely borrowed words from English prior to the industrial revolution and to complicate matters, different dialects of French did not borrow the same words nor did they do so at the same time. European French has mostly been aggressively borrowing from English since the late 20th century (maybe the last 2-3 generations). Canadian French borrowed heavily from English but it did so earlier (during the industrial era - say 1850-1960) and social changes there led to a decrease in the rate of borrowing from English starting in the 1960s (it still happens of course, but less often and it meets more resistance).
      As a result, European French is littered with English loanwords for high tech stuff and recent trends while Canadian French is littered with English loanwords for lower tech stuff and some older concepts. Also, the Europeans are far more likely to creatively reinterpret an English word to mean something completely different while Canadian French tends to just adapt the pronunciation a bit but keep the English meaning (e.g. "jogging" is the activity of jogging in Canada but it's a type of athletic wear in France and they call jogging "footing"...). The Europeans also tend to apply French phonetics far more aggressively than Canadian French speakers (like enunciating the "g" in most -ing ending loanwords which sounds odd to French Canadian ears), probably because English fluency is generally higher among Canadian francophones (for obvious practical reasons - over 350 million English speaking neighbours who share an overlapping broader North American culture).
      Accent differences aside, our very different sets of English loanwords can add to trans-Atlantic communication hiccups in French.

      @@Lechoslaw8546 Before 500 AD Poland, Bohemia and Moravia were Germanic countries. Since more than thousand years they were the countries of the famous Germanic tribes of the Goths and the Vandals (also Burgundians and Marcomanni) until the invasion of Attila's Huns in 450 AD.
      All later so called “Slavic” people (including the later Poles and Czechs) did not exist in Europe before 450 AD. They derive from many different Asian ethnicities scattered all over Asia until 450 AD. So the genuine land of the original "Slavic" Poles and Czechs is somewhere in Asia. They joined Attila’s hordes when Attila called up to join him to conquer Europe. Attila's so called "Huns" were an ethnical mixture of many Asian tribes. After the Huns in 451 AD had been defeated and repelled to Asia by the Germanic Goths and the Romans in the Battle on the Catalaunian Fields (in today’s France), some of Attila's Huns stayed in today's Ukraine and Belarus, especially in the Pripyat Swamps in the Kiev area.
      From there the remaining Asians slowly infiltrated the Germanic lands with a genuine Germanic population west of them, cause many of the Goths and Vandals had moved south and west when Attila’s Huns had invaded eastern Europe. These Goths and Vandals finally conquered the west Roman Empire.
      Thus most of today's Poles and Czechs are ethnic Germans who were just infiltrated by some of Attila's Asian Huns.
      These Germans were forced to speak Asian languages in the last 1500 years under the predominance of the Asian Byzantine culture of Constantinople and the East-Roman Empire because the cultural influence and power of the West-Roman Empire had weakened a lot in eastern Europe after 500 AD.

      It is EXACTLY the other way around. Most of todays "Germans" are former Poles/Czechs.
      The term Germania in ancient Rome and also in middle ages and also later meant today language people foremost. This term was stolen by Habsburgs and Hohenzollerns and other thieves in order to promote their expansion and theft of genuine Germanic=Slavic territories. Deutsch never called themselves Germans, until modern era brainwashing. Slavs on the other hand appeared in antiquity under many other names, Vends, Vandals, Sueves are just the examples. Today Slavs are real Europeans and oldest folks on the continent running for milleniums sedentary lifestyle and cultivating agriculture versus nomadic predecessors of Deutsche that were constantly learning skills from the superior Slavs. Onomastics spread in entire present Deutschland, Austria, Switzerland and North Italy clearly indicate these are genuine Slavic territory and so DNA genetic tests.
      Your theory that you've read from a nazi "professor"Gustaf Kossinna, a fairy tale writer who lacked the honesty to admit that he was a naturalized Mazurian and chaneged his Slavic surname, you need to shred into pieces and flush it down the toilet.

    I’m from 🇮🇹 and this was very fun to watch. I liked that the Polish girl pointed out why English and German are often similar, being both Saxon languages. Though it is important to point out that it’s true only in part as a good 40% of the English language descends from Latin. This is mostly because of the Roman Empire’s occupation of Britain in 43 AD. I mean the very word “Britain” originated from the Latin word “Britannia”, just like London comes from “Londinium”. Several words of neo-Latin languages are very similar to their English counterparts.
    Btw it was very cool how French pronunciation was always the most admired, probably for being the most fascinating and elegant-sounding one. I like French a lot.

In Canada, we invented French words for those (we constantly have to fight so that our language doesn't disappear so we put more effort into updating it and preserving it's quality.)
    For example Ferry, in France will be called a Ferry as well, but in Canadian French, it will be called a "Traversier" because it traverses (moves people) in the water. French people say shopping, in Canadian French we say "magasiner" because we go buy products/articles in a "magasin" which is the word for Store/Shop.
    I could go on about similar examples, but Canadian French and French have been at war on who's better than who and more "authentic". Let's say that one country adopted the dialect of the peasant and revolutionaries while the other kept the rich people/royalty pronunciation/dialect. We can still understand eachothers easily, only slangs can be confusing. "T'es bonne" in France French means "you're hot and I want to bang you", while in Canadian French, it just means that "you're great". XD
    So be mindful in which country you're gonna showcase your new learnt slangs haha!

      But it is western slavic witch makes a lot of diffrence starting from the alphabet which is Latin and for Eastern Slavs only Cyrillic. In Polish there are a lot of sounds based on the letter "s", which makes the language very rustling, which makes it sound similar to Portuguese. But there is also a very hard "r" which sounds very much like Spanish, and there are a lot of endings of the worlds looking like that: "ą", "ę" and that sound like French. I think that's why you could hear very clearly how especially Polish and Spanish, but also French sounded similar. Slavic languages, although everyone thinks they should be similar, are very different. And in fact it could be an interesting episode comparing only Slavic languages.

Polish sounding like Portuguese is because of the way EU Portuguese speakers speak comparde to the Brazilian ones. However in the end Polish is still the odd ball here cause it's the only Slavic language in the group; they do have similarities since they all came from Proto-Indo European. Also the languages close to Polish are Czech, Slovakian, & Sorbian. Since they are western Slavic languages they are similar just as Southern Slavic languages such as Bulgarian, Macedonian, Serbian, Bosnian, & Croatian are similar.

      Okey, I understand your points and it is true that if we read it, in a Spanish way it is exactly the way she did It but in a normal conversation in Spain we pronounce like the other girls. And also I don’t think that it is different in others part of Spain cause I have family all over it.

      @@edgarmedrano225 en vista de los ejemplos que me encuentro en el día a día yo creo que es por comodidad. En general la pronunciación del español no se complican mucho, y por eso buscan la sencillez. Es mucho más fácil decir "wifi" que "waifai" / "espíderman" que "spaiderman" / "aefecá" que eiefquei" / ermión que jermáioni y de misma forma en el otro sentido "blutuz" que "bluetooz" / "gúgel" que "google" / "yutub" que "youtube" / "erpods" que "airpods".
      Obviamente como en cualquier idioma habrá excepciones, pero esta es mi teoría.
      En cuanto llegaron las palabras Sándwich, táper y clínex, desparecieron "emparedado", "fiambrera" y "pañuelos de papel"

    As a pole, This girl's polish accent sounds kinda strange. Never heard anyone call emoji like this and google.
    I think she's not even from Poland but she just has polish parents and knows some polish.

    Great comparison, but for me there are too many brand names that pronunciation is similar. The next time it would be better to use the words you use every day. 😉
