Imagine laughing at someone who's actually trying to speak in someone else's native language. That kid did a great job and, in my opinion, did better than those who laughed at him.
Lots of people are just as*holes, seriously laughing at the poor kid meeting his idol and trying his best to speak his language poor kid they should be ashamed
The audience laughs at a japanese kid making the effort to speak portuguese (decently enough to be understood by CR) while probably not even fluent in english (as european natives) 😭
And let's be honest Japanese people have a really rough time for the most part, talking in other languages. Their English and whatnot get's heavily affected by their native tongue, but the boy tried and did a great job. I can see as well as most of us thst Ronaldo was probably the only genuine person there because he respected the effort. A man is respected when he gives others respect, abd he has mine, both of them
That is incredible. The kid probably speaks multiple languages or is trying to, lives and works as a focussed athlete already, so his “how” question probably truly serves his plan. Well done!!
Massive respect for this kid, who prepared a public speech in Portuguese, not because he had to, as Ronaldo speaks other languages too, but to honor Ronaldo’s native language. And Ronaldo, is a legend for standing up for this kid
It's called respect, wanting to speak an entirely different language to a guest in his country. Held his head down too. That took alot of courage. And Ronaldo is 💯 for this
Speaking from his own experience. I still remember he couldn't speak or understand English back in early Manchester days, people mocked his accent a lot. He knows how hard communicating with your second language is

I don't even speak Portuguese, I'm a spanish speaker, and his Portuguese was so clear that I could understand everything he said even without reading the subtitles. He did good.
In fact both spanish speakers and portugese speakers can maintain an conversation even if they did not learn each other's language, in this case we portugese speakers we do an thing which we call 'portunhol' where we shift a little the words to sound a little like an spanish word like for example an 'poquito' that means 'a little', but sometimes we don't really need that 'portunhol' because because some words in spanish do not change in portugese in the word sense, but the pronounciation does.
@@nimrodelbeats it's similar, but Portuguese pronounciation is so fucked up it's hard for us Spanish speakers to understand. The Japanese language has the exact same sounds that Spanish does, so this kid speaking Portuguese was basically the same as a Spanish speaker trying to speak Portuguese. If I had to compare with it English, it'd basically be like 2 English accents with different sounds each, plus some differences born from archaic dialects (kind of like how Americans pronounce the -er at the end of words like how old southern English dialects did) t. Argentinian
People that laughed were so rude and immature. I liked Ronaldo's attitude. He congratulated the kid on his trying to speak on his native language, slamming politely people's behaviour. I bet he was really annoyed by them but didn't want to show it publicly.
Random question but is Brazilian Portuguese the same as the Portuguese spoken in Portugal or does it have differences? Random question with no real point just want to know
@@nitoundead3772I don’t speak the language but I think it’s safe to assume that overall it’s quite similar, but there are slight differences in some words.
Not a soccer either. But this guy earned my respect when I heard the story of a lady who had written asking for a signed jersesy. ( she had planned on selling it to raise money cause she needed 250 ,000 euros for his sons cancer treatment.) Renaldo sent the signed jersey with a card and the 250k euros in the card
Never laugh at a child and don’t mock people who are making an effort to speak a foreign language. As a polyglot, I admire every single person who tries to learn other cultures’ languages. This child showed him respect as a person not just a famous athlete. That is precious.

Surprisingly it goes the other way too. When I started studying Japanese a couple of years ago, the pronunciation of words was very similar to Spanish (my native language). Basically whatever is written is how it's pronounced unlike English where words have can be pronounced nothing like how it's written.
@@RelsegJapanese has literally thousands of symbols as well as complex pitch accent rules that apply based upon not just the word, but also where the word is in the sentence. It is not as easy as you make it out to be.
In Spanish we have something like the pitch accent rules found in Japanese. There are certain rules that dictates where the stress of a syllable should fall on to convey a more precise message, and this are usually highlighted with an accent mark e.g.: "ésta", "está", "éste", "esté", etc. Combine that with how similar the pronunciation of the characters is, and no Spanish speaker is going to struggle with the language as much as an English speaker, at least when it comes to speaking. The only steep learning curve will be Kanji and the grammatical structure of the sentences, but I found the latter to be quite easy to get accustomed to, in my perspective.

This is not laughing to mock, but a Japanese way of showing consideration by trying to lighten the mood. For example, when giving presentations, Japanese people feel more at ease if the audience laughs rather than being met with silence. Laughing isn't just for mockery, right?

I am an English teacher in Japan, and I have taught hundreds of kids like this. In my eyes, this boy is a hero. For Europeans or non-Americans, knowing multiple languages is common and even necessary as a result of living in an environment with many countries with different cultures and languages. But Japan is an island nation with a mostly homogenous population and a very distinct culture and language different from anywhere else. Many Japanese people consider speaking and understanding a foreign language to be an immense challenge. Even students from top schools struggle with everyday conversation in English. (And Portuguese is pretty much unheard of here) But despite that, this kid got up there in front of the world… and spoke to his hero in a foreign language. 95% of students here in Japan do not have the level of confidence and passion to do something this. Much respect Mr. Ronaldo for his grace and respect in this situation!

He tried to speak another language. Learning and self taught on this it seems. Very well done young man and respect to Ronaldo for seeing this. The man came from nothing
Slightly unrelated to the video, but I highly recommend you to learn Portuguese. It's an incredibly beautiful and hugely underrated language, with over 260 million speakers. Big props to this kid for trying, I'm also learning Portuguese and I understood everything he said até sem subtítulos.
Been wondering for years which latin language to learn. Are Portuguese and spanish close to each other? In the sense that learning one will automatically mean that you can speak the other?
@@mlooky1221 Portuguese and Spanish look very similar when written, but the spoken forms are actually quite different. Portuguese has many sounds that Spanish doesn't. A Spanish speaker would have some trouble understanding Portuguese spoken, but Portuguese speakers seem to understand Spanish speakers much better. Case in point: My friend is an Argentinian married to a Brazilian and she has trouble following her husband's conversations when he speaks Portuguese. If you want to learn a language that is very useful, go for Spanish (there are half a billion Spanish speakers in the world). But Portuguese is no lightweight either in terms of number of speakers, and I chose it because I love Lusophone culture and music. It depends what you like and what motivates you. Good luck in your language learning, let me know how it goes! :)
@@bag3lmonst3r72 I’m actually dying to learn Spanish since I’m a die hard Real Madrid fan and I would love to watch and understand programs like El Chiringuito without subtitles.

Thank you very much for the information by the way.

The translator should have been placed next to the boy, and while speaking, Ronaldo was supposed to be looking straight at the boy. In such cases, the translator is disregarded. Instead he had to turn away and speak to the translator in the opposite end of the room, while the boy seemed ignored. Oher than that, a breathtaking experience for a young kid.
Start learning language. When you are young you can remember so easily. Use this time to memorize useful things. You can be memorizing for your future career right now.
People didn't laugh out of disrespect, they laughed because it was cute how this boy wanted to play with his idol. It's still not right to laugh, because the boy was extremely nervous and uncomfortable. It's difficult to speak a foreign language in front of other people. You feel small and stupid. Only people who lived in foreign countries will understand this feeling.
If this happened in Japan, the audience was not laughing at the kid. It's something Japanese people do...laugh to relieve some of the tensity. It's more like an "awww that's so sweet. You're doing a good job. Ganbare." However I did this when someone fell off a chair and laughed to express my surprise but ended up pissing off the person...cultural difference is so hard man...
I hope the adults felt embarrassed & ashamed! Laughing at a child who’s trying to communicate in a foreign language especially as he won’t get this chance with CR again. I’m a grown women & would be nervous on a platform like that.
0:34 oh boy so this is why I think we need a common tongue/universal language the kinda thing you see in fiction and sci-fi that everyone knows as a second language.
Cristiano Ronaldo that was a quality of a man who himself when thru the same experience and he's giving that young boy to believe in his thru hardwork. Much respect to you, Cristiano Ronaldo 💚🙏💚
I don't think most ppl were laughing to be mean and discouraging, I think they were laughing in endearment. It is cute and heart-warming to see this boy. To see him struggling and yet still succeeding to talk to his idol. I had a chuckle myself. You don't see things this amazing often.
As a native Portuguese speaker, I can say that the boy spoke well. His reading is perfectly understandable. There are great phonetic differences between Japanese and Portuguese, I can only imagine the efforts he has made to meet CR. These people should be ashamed of themselves for laughing at him.
Cristiano and Messi marked their generation not only by being great players with great skill, but also because of their humility, God bless their hearts
The child must have been extremely nervous. I’m happy he came to his defense.

Man more ive seeen this mans videos on net, hes actually gets more respect bcz of his actions, i am just glad we have players like him
such a humble man
He tried to speak another language. Learning and self taught on this it seems. Very well done young man and respect to Ronaldo for seeing this. The man came from nothing
This kid grew up to become Levi Ackermann
KENNNNNYYYYYYYYY
Levi but tall
Nah, he will be himsagi

1:05 Hes talking nervously in a different language probably akso talking slow because it's hard for him he was good to me. Wtf is everyone laughing
Slightly unrelated to the video, but I highly recommend you to learn Portuguese. It's an incredibly beautiful and hugely underrated language, with over 260 million speakers. Big props to this kid for trying, I'm also learning Portuguese and I understood everything he said até sem subtítulos.
Been wondering for years which latin language to learn. Are Portuguese and spanish close to each other? In the sense that learning one will automatically mean that you can speak the other?
@@mlooky1221 Portuguese and Spanish look very similar when written, but the spoken forms are actually quite different. Portuguese has many sounds that Spanish doesn't. A Spanish speaker would have some trouble understanding Portuguese spoken, but Portuguese speakers seem to understand Spanish speakers much better. Case in point: My friend is an Argentinian married to a Brazilian and she has trouble following her husband's conversations when he speaks Portuguese.
If you want to learn a language that is very useful, go for Spanish (there are half a billion Spanish speakers in the world). But Portuguese is no lightweight either in terms of number of speakers, and I chose it because I love Lusophone culture and music. It depends what you like and what motivates you.
Good luck in your language learning, let me know how it goes! :)
@@bag3lmonst3r72 I’m actually dying to learn Spanish since I’m a die hard Real Madrid fan and I would love to watch and understand programs like El Chiringuito without subtitles. I can already follow the context of some conversations from the english sounding words that are thrown around but I really want to learn the full language. Thank you very much for the information by the way.
Agradeço o elogio a minha língua, normalmente as pessoas falam mais do espanhol até por ser uma das línguas mais faladas no mundo, então agradeço o seu elogio a minha língua
@@esquel_astronaut imagina! Amo muito a música bossa nova, então isso me motiva a continuar falando sua linda língua sempre que eu posso. Graças ao seu país por fornecernos este presente maravilhoso. "A última flor do Lácio, inculta e bela" ;)
Greatest of all time ❤😊
Cr7 the goat
Cristiano is so kind to the boy I really like his answer😃😃
This is what setting an excellent example looks like. Cristiano is the GOAT.
Respect for this kid and Ronaldo!
sticking up for that kid shows CR7 has class.
The translator should have been placed next to the boy, and while speaking, Ronaldo was supposed to be looking straight at the boy. In such cases, the translator is disregarded. Instead he had to turn away and speak to the translator in the opposite end of the room, while the boy seemed ignored. Oher than that, a breathtaking experience for a young kid.
What that kid is doing is super nice, and super brave.
Cristiano is a class act, shows respect for others and defends children, a good man who is humble and hardworking.
Ronaldo zawsze ma ojcowskie podejście do dzieci. Prawdziwy z niego ojciec i świetny profesjonalista.
as a Brazilian, it is actually very accurate. i’m using translate to talk to you right now.
Start learning language. When you are young you can remember so easily. Use this time to memorize useful things. You can be memorizing for your future career right now.
how do you know me young?
I just assumed honestly. because of your profile picture. @@CareerJr
@@humanbean3😂😂😂😂😂
O cara está certo, aproveita e aprenda enquanto está bem fresco e novo na sua memória e veja a magia acontecer ao aprender a falar e ler em inglês
Ronaldo is a beautiful soul.
Ya know the saying "never meet your heroes?". Ronaldo is one of those heroes who have proven themselves to be worthy of that regard
I don't even speak portuguese and I understood him. He did great.
Ronaldo truly the goat
Messi better
@@CHAlVlELEOlVpessi ,loser Ronaldo better
What a great role model!
Respect respect….leading by example. Nicely done Ronaldo.
This is another example of why his the GOAT ❤CR7
That boy is super lucky. He was able to meet his idol❤
I am brazilian and the boy speaks portuguese very well. I look up him for his effort
At some point ronaldo was also in the exact position, nobody will understand that kid better than ronaldo
O garoto mandou bem pra quem aparentemente nunca falou português na vida,ficou bem explícito a fala.
00:24 lady he is not a dumb HE UNDERSTAND IT .........that look :D
She just double checking geez
The fact is that lyto actually became a footballer
Really? That is nice!
Where does he play?
Having someone stand up for you is already good enough
Having Cristiano to stand up for you is mad
People didn't laugh out of disrespect, they laughed because it was cute how this boy wanted to play with his idol.
It's still not right to laugh, because the boy was extremely nervous and uncomfortable.
It's difficult to speak a foreign language in front of other people. You feel small and stupid. Only people who lived in foreign countries will understand this feeling.
Now lets see Messi do this. I respect Ronaldo more then Messi.
😂😂. Exactly this?
😅
What does Messi have anything to do with this
What does messi have to do with this?
If this happened in Japan, the audience was not laughing at the kid. It's something Japanese people do...laugh to relieve some of the tensity. It's more like an "awww that's so sweet. You're doing a good job. Ganbare."
However I did this when someone fell off a chair and laughed to express my surprise but ended up pissing off the person...cultural difference is so hard man...
What a brave young man! Ronaldo is pure inspiration!
Thats why i respect and honor CR7. He has a heart of gold.
Never laugh on others because time comes time laughs on u .
0:06 Subtitles are wrong, it should be Ryota, because there is no L in the japanese alphabet
Japanese R is kinda like L, and could be probably pronounced similar.
@@SheepybearryThat's simply not true lmao
I hope the adults felt embarrassed & ashamed! Laughing at a child who’s trying to communicate in a foreign language especially as he won’t get this chance with CR again. I’m a grown women & would be nervous on a platform like that.
Im portuguese. I understood him well. We cant bring each other down. Praise eachother for their achievements instead of bringing them down
CR7 with his one sentence change the mindset of people & also motivtes the child. Gr8 respect to him.
0:34 oh boy so this is why I think we need a common tongue/universal language the kinda thing you see in fiction and sci-fi that everyone knows as a second language.
Nope.
бля ты лучший
Mad respect for this soccer player respecting the boy's hardship to speak with him in another language, that's how you respect and defend your fans.
Cristiano Ronaldo that was a quality of a man who himself when thru the same experience and he's giving that young boy to believe in his thru hardwork.
Much respect to you, Cristiano Ronaldo 💚🙏💚
Ronaldo has a beautiful heart who knows what emotions were going through the kids head
I don't think most ppl were laughing to be mean and discouraging, I think they were laughing in endearment. It is cute and heart-warming to see this boy. To see him struggling and yet still succeeding to talk to his idol. I had a chuckle myself. You don't see things this amazing often.
hope this kid grows up and becomes the best soccer player ever
Cristiano is a Nice person with kids. Bravo
As a native Portuguese speaker, I can say that the boy spoke well. His reading is perfectly understandable. There are great phonetic differences between Japanese and Portuguese, I can only imagine the efforts he has made to meet CR. These people should be ashamed of themselves for laughing at him.
Cristiano and Messi marked their generation not only by being great players with great skill, but also because of their humility, God bless their hearts
