As a native Hindi speaker the reason why some people randomly switch to English while speaking Hindi is that they don't even know the equivalent sentence in Hindi, it might shock you but some Hindi speakers don't even know how to count in Hindi. I used to be like that too then I had to learn all of that, I really feel ashamed that many native Hindi speakers don't understand their own language
It's because most Hindi speakers have different regional languages. India is a very diverse country and therefore everything is very diverse here, even language there's no such thing as pure language here at least. Pure language sounds so robotic to us.
@@LoveYourself-my9nzthat is not the reason even though it is true, regional languages aren't the reason why hindi speakers don't know the basics of their language.
@@Forgerlegacy Not only in school but everywhere wheather its a job interview or work in offices, etc they just want us to speak in English even all the official paper work is done in English due to which after learning intermidiate Hindi we stop learning it and focus more on English
Oh, please don't be ridiculous, Korean doesn't just throw "smida" (습니다) at the end of every sentence.... sometimes they mix it up with a "hamnida"(합니다)!
습니다 and 합니다 are just formal endings for statements. You hear them in announcements and formal work settings but you'd use them rarely when with friends or work colleagues. Also as a foreigner, as long as you stick a '요' or a '세요) on the end of sentences, you'll be fine. I've been here for a while and have a decent grasp of changing my speaking in certain occasions, but it's really not that hard. Although, to be a 3.1 or 3.2 level in Korean is kind of pointless for day to day stuff.
My girlfriend is indian. She's not a native hindi speaker, but even in her language I've noticed absurd levels of code switching to english when she speaks with her family. It really is like they're speaking two languages at once.

@@Lilac_liha that’s like saying because not everybody speaks Spanish in Spain we shouldn’t call the language Spanish. There’s also Occitan, Breton, Basque in France too, should we stop calling French French?
9:00 that's because as a hindi speaker i can tell that most spoken language in india is not hindi but hinglish, which is like hindi+english. that's mainly because in india most of us get English medium education, most of the books in schools are written in english and teachers explain them in hindi so from childhood we get used to use both hindi and english together. local languages are used for normal conversation and english for technical terms, so u will always find people using a mixture of their local language + english in india. pure hindi is actually difficult for us as well, moreover when u talk about people coming up with different translations of same line in hindi, that's because in hindi itself there are several dialects with different words for same thing. i mean yes u can easily understand all other dialects if u know one, but u must know one of them in the first place.

The Indian education system is pretty messed up when it comes to teaching languages. On one hand, schools keep telling us to speak only in English, but the reality is that hardly anyone actually does. Even most teachers, except the Hindi teacher, don’t always speak in English. This creates a weird situation where we don’t really get to practice English enough. And then there's Hindi, which feels like it’s pushed aside. The system treats English as more important, so we just study Hindi to pass exams rather than really learn it. What makes it even harder is that Hindi has so many different forms and dialects. That just adds more confusion, especially when we try to speak it properly. So, we end up not being great at either language-our English isn’t polished, and our Hindi feels half-baked. The system just focuses so much on English that Hindi becomes something we cram for exams, not something we really understand or use well. It’s frustrating because we don’t end up mastering either language, and that leaves us feeling stuck somewhere in the middle. literally just ask any indian what we call 68 or 76 or 87 in Hindi , half of them cant answer it
Hindi itself is spoken in no particular state. It evolved in delhi , up it has lot of sanskrit Persian arabic turkish mix. Every area has its own language like hindi but not hindu. India is not France or Spain. We have pretty diverse spectrum of languages. Purity is not important,communication is. Hindi is still evolving fast. Its picking up English words now. Pure literature people speak it beautifully,rest is intrest. All use it in their own way. Purity or standardization is not important..English of England and America are not same. That doesn't stop anyone from learning English. Language has a practical use. Foreigners learn hindi to shop, assimilate, be accepted. They dont otherwise. We try our English in France Spain when we fail we try their language. Its all about need. Sonia after 50 years couldn't speak, Karl Rock picked up in a week. People do follow leaders. Govt. Our new breed of leaders are fluent in hindi. So people getting aware. The language spoken in a family is the real language and its never English. Never. Its only only for work, outside.
I studied Hindi for a few years in the nineties. (I'm white British in spite of my handle). It has a regular verb system, a grammar easily grasped, and a fairly straightforward script. The problem is the order of ideas in a sentence. I agree that is is depressing that many Hindi speakers look down upon old-fashioned Hindi words, especially high-flown Sanskrit-based words, and prefer English words as if they were superior; e.g. anyone would say 'attack' but few would say 'aakraman'.
hamla is decent enough, tbh. I don't think I'd ever say "Ukraine par attack ho gya". Though, one thing I absolutely hate is the lack of a standard Hindi keyboard layout that's available on all OSes and platforms.
that's sadly because English is just used too much in India, from our schoolbooks to social media to official government documents to court judgements to everyday news and to almost everything else, all are written in English. so, people in India are actually reading more English than they read their local language which results in them replacing their local words with English words. the biggest factor of all in English medium teaching in schools.
@@reny62 Maybe truth hurts you my friend but accepting it is still any day better. Instead of getting angry at me, you should just see our education system Why do we study everything in English? I'm telling you, if the word "attack" is not yet common around you then it will be, eventually.
Korean is pretty hard but King Sejong did a pretty gigachad move inventing hangeul, it’s literally made to be so easy that everyone, no matter the social class, would be able to learn it. And he did it with backlash from China and the other nobles.
@@OTC-k1o Hangeul has only small numbers of alphabets and consonants, little letter combinations, the grammar rules are also much simpler than some languages.
True about code switching in Hindi. It has happened to me several times that i‘ve watched UA-cam videos and wondered whether people spoke English with a very heavy Indian accent, or whether it was Hindi and English mixed.
Actually, in India, people believe that mixing Hindi and English makes them appear smarter or more sophisticated. And if someone speaks pure Hindi, they assume he is a countryman or illiterate.
It's sadly true for all the Indian languages. Thanks to the British colonisation, Indians ironically regard the English language as the symbol of sophistication. Mixing English in their language gives them the false impression that they belong to the "upper class". As you know, class hierarchy is really important for Indians. So English gives them the easy path to climb up the social hierarchy: speaking English + flaunting wealth = upper class. I heard that the English people mixed French in their language for similar reasons during the Norman rule in England. They regarded French as the language of the upper class. Similar thing is happening now in India.
This very true,I’m Bengali and I code-switch all the time,not for the reason the person mentioned above me☝🏾 it’s mainly because my parents taught me to talk like that

@@siddhirbhavatikarmja I agree. As a Tamil speaker myself I am amazed to see somebody actually knows how to pronounce most Tamil sounds.

I want to tell you about the language I THOUGHT I will never learn. It's Ukrainian. It just wasn't any interesting, basically like my native language (Russian), but like from a weird village. The shock factor is also dubious, especially for slavs. And I'd been learning Swedish for more than a year at that time, why would I learn another language? Yeah, and I also heard lots of bad things towards me and my country in this lang (u know why). All these things were hella demotivating... but.. My closest friend is Ukrainian and not very long ago I found out that I am like half Ukrainian (I was learning about my ancestors and somehow hadn't been thinking anything about my last name being Ukrainian before) and got interested in Ukrainian culture. Now I learn it everyday by speaking to my friend (girlfriend now). And I progress very fast, she says I already have strong B1 (I don't care much about CERF yet it's kinda motivating), though I've been learning it for less than three months.
Love Russia. I tried learning that language though and it is so hard but I know how to fake a Russian accent now lol so my pronunciation would be perfect haha
Technically, Italian, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Romanian (and Corsican and Sardinian and Catalan and Occitan and Rumansch and Provencal and Galician and Piedmontese and Ligurian and Tuscan and Sicilian and Venetian and Neapolitan etc.) are all dialects of Latin. that's what happens to a language when there hasn't been any centrally enforced linguistic unity for 16 centruries.
Korean, and an avid hater on K-pop here. The 'smida' thing is the result of something called honorifics. Basically, the way you talk changes if you're talking to a higher up or an elder person. This is a feature in pretty much most of the languages used in East Asia. Regarding North Korean Korean: it's pretty much the exact same thing to the South Korean one, but with some notable differences (ㄹ doesn't turn into ㄴ/ㅇ at the start of a word, drastically less frequent loan words from English, etc.) If you know one, you know at least 70% of the other.
@@themistake8904 username checks out ㄹ is the best character in the language, you can just write a zigzag/squiggle that just loosely resembles ㄹ and it'll be acceptable, how cool is that?
You only think Korean uses -ida a lot because the verb comes at the end of the sentence and that's the usual formal/business-casual verb ending used most so it just makes it more prominent in things like TV shows. If you were listening to conversations between friends you'd just hear HAEEEE or Haeyo and not nearly as much
As someone who couldn't choose between Korean or Japanese, since I had initially started learning Korean with my ex, I'm taking this as my sign to become the weaboo I always knew I could be!

. At 25, I'm still learning new things about the language. People often respect those who can speak pure Hindi without relying on foreign words. However, the shift to English medium schools has resulted in many substituting English terms for Hindi words, leading to a dilution of the language. Interestingly, even native speakers struggle with the pronunciation of certain words, and some words have evolved such that the way we speak them differs from how they are written. This makes mastering Hindi a continuous challenge, not just for learners but also for those who have spoken it their entire lives.
No language is pure. Unless you live a very closed life. People travel watch read. Vocabulary of every person reflects his learning, area where he belongs. So dont feel bad about it. Indians never snub anyone on faults. Encourage a lot. Thats beautiful. Rest don't take so much pains to teach. Real communication is that. Europeans are bad. They themselves accept. A German lady said ,we dont talk at all to strangers
@LanguageSimp If you learn Korean language it means you are not straight man and listen to girly music, hahahahaha I'm joking I am gay man myself and I talked with a woman who used to like k-pop when she was a teenager she said K-pop was the biggest lie in her teen years because of K-pop plastic surgeries and she said without K-pop and K-drama South Korea would be an isolated country like China, The South Korean governments spends thousands of millions to support K-pop and K-drama and to promote them abroad to improve the national image, improve economy, to promote Korean products and to promote tourism that is why 60% of tourists in South Korea are young women and most people who learn korean are young women.

I'm never going to learn my mother tongue, which is Igbo. My experiences learning the language have been disastrous. I ended up preferring learning Spanish, French, and Dutch to Igbo and my parents are really disappointed (especially my mother).
That's because there is no language harder to learn than the one which your parents wish you could've spoken from birth and for which all your cousins back home make fun of you for not being able to speak it. With literally any other language, there is no expectation for you to be able to speak it - you can take it at your own pace and laugh when you mess up. But with the language of your homeland, each mispronunciation and grammatical mistake makes you feel socially outcasted from your own culture. There are few feelings as humiliating.
@@m_uz1244 I was taught Igbo in high school in Nigeria, but I openly hated going to class. Classes made me feel dumber for even going to attend. Before, I was in Yoruba class and I loved learning Yoruba even if it was only for three months.

I remember that the Korean writing system was borrowed by a small Indonesian language because it was designed to be logical. I have also heard other linguists praise the Korean writing system.

THANK you so much for saying this about Hindi. I want to learn Hindi but this is one of my huge problems with trying to learn it, that you actually have to FIND language programs that have curated dialogues which make it possible. I think this is one of the reasons why Pimsleur needs to get Hindi to level 5. Good for you on wanting to learn the other languages there too. Telugu has some great movies, easily as good as many Bollywood. Tamil does well as well. You do have to watch out as some of that some complaint you made about Hindi has made its way into Telugu content with English as well. I think a little of that may be in Tamil as well. Mahayalam and others not sure. I will say with those if you watch maybe a decent bit of 10 or 20 year old movies you may totally be good though.

The reason for hindi speakers to be that way is first hindi and english both are official languages so after independence people might have focused on english more as they already knew hindi. Cuz english would not only be used in official works but also as the ONLY medium to communicate all the people around india. YES YOU READ IT RIGHT. As india had 1500+ languages at the time of independence and then they later grouped the similar languages for example languages like rajasthani, bhojpuri,haryanvi, etc. Were grouped under the name of HINDI. which explains why different people translate it differently. Me myself living in rajasthan and having a totally different ethnicity than most rajasthani people i often struggle. As rajasthan also is divided in different areas and guess what with different languages. YES! That's why it's said that in india after every 10 kms language changes. Well even after grouping the amount of languages left were 600+ [idk the exact count] so they termed 22 languages out of them as scheduled languages as they had a considerable amount of speakers. And the other were called non-scheduled. After all the stats, hindi was the most spoken with about 40% of speakers speaking it. Can you imagine only 40%? And so even if they wanted to make it the National language they couldn't cuz only people from north spoke the language and so it was a mess. So the government gave all the people 15 years of time to learn the language. Making both the hindi and English the official languages of india. But it's 75 yrs of independence still it's not been removed from that position. What the heck is government doing!? BUT i think It's also our mistake that we agreed to make a language that ruled over us for about 300 years to give it that place but would not want one of our own language to be the one. And the way politicians and other people make us indians [north and south india] fight over this for just some votes or just break us idk what do people even do it for? It's just ridiculous and straightforward heinous. Even kids are not taught the real reason as to why hindi is taught everywhere in india. One of my online (ex) frnd from tamil nadu once told me her teachers told her that you need to go do job in north and that's why u need to learn hindi. Which is ridiculous. Like can you imagine? A person will obviously get defensive like what's wrong with south india? It's ahead of us in many ways. And she didn't even know that there are 22 scheduled language and all the stuff [not to say all Tamalians are like that infact i find them the smartest but just an example to show how people create misunderstanding and just how the lack of information really make us indians fight over nothing] and she was really defensive as to why only hindi was given all the importance and made the official language💀 like 😭🤌 it was the MOST SPOKEN. But anyways as the result, india became westernized as the only thing that works as a barrier is language. And English was not a barrier for us and there it is. Today's india where teaching English is more important than teaching any of the india's languages or history, where western culture is cool but our own culture is neglected. Despite having so many festivals they get overly excited for Halloween and christmas which nothing is wrong with that but i've seen people showing disgust for our own culture. [I was myself was slipping into that mentality! Tbh, just a person pulled me out of it quite harshly but im thankful] and where our own language is embarrassing but English is cool. Where if you speak your own language ur illiterate but if you know how to speak english that's considered classy. Me even myself am from a school where it was mandatory to speak English and they punished us if we spoke hindi. Ludicrous and Terrible ain't it? I have recently developed an intrest for language learning and after completing this language i am already half way through i will learn our languages tamil gujrati marathi etc. It even hurts me to see that there are thousands of great teachers teaching other languages for free on youtube but for hindi and the other indian languages there's barely a few. That's a shame really on us. India's youth. [Im counting myself in]
Technically it didn't develop this verbal system, but rather retained it from proto-slavic, while all other Slavic languages have simplified their verbs
@@mrgriboman371 I don't speak Bulgarian myself, but the slavic philologists I consulted say that Bulgarian not only retained the protoslavic status quo, but also innovated, making its verbal system more complicated than it was. I talk about the so called inferential mood and the adverbial participle. I won't die on this hill because for me it is indirect knowledge but I trust those philologists to have been accurate.
My native language is Arabic and I taught myself Korean (not fluently, but I can understand a lot). I knew K-pop and K-drama almost 14 years ago and since I was spending a lot of time consuming Korean content, I thought why not learning the alphabet at least? I gave it a try and the alphabet is quite easy, unlike the assumption of those who never tried learning it. Then, I started teaching myself more and more more I learned, the more I loved this language. It sounds beautiful to me and the way words are combined is interesting. And no, it's not all "smnida". This is just a suffix that indicates you're speaking formally and there are other suffixes used depending on the formality level, and if you're not speaking formally, the sentence end won't really be any suffix. It's just that the Korean culture has a big influence on the language itself, which is something I personally like.

Japanese (Struggling, speak okay, I suck at reading, only know 80-90 kanji): My grandparents speak it to me at times, they can't speak English too well, plus half of people at their church only speak Japanese. French (So far know present, telling time, comparative, superlative, forming adverbs and past tense plus about 100 words): Heard it's useful for business, haven't used it yet though, either way, it's pretty easy. Korean (So far, know how to read it plus a few words and some grammar): Met these Korean people who couldn't speak English well, I asked them a question, they asked me to repeat it in Korean. Mandarin: Similar reason as Korean, but in Hacienda Heights, I met a lot of people who only speak Mandarin, I had to TA a kindergarten class where some of the kids only spoke Mandarin. Russian: I sometimes indirectly meet Russian Americans, some can't speak English. Vietnamese: Same reason as Russian. I may learn Arabic, Persian, or Thai too.
It’s funny that you don’t like the Portuguese from Portugal but you like Russian, many people say they have similar intonation and sounds. From a far Russian and Port Portuguese sound the almost same to me. Pero me encanta 🇧🇷 para siempre! ❤️❤️
Its not similar at all to speakers, but I guess non speakers kinda agree that they are similar in sound. Had people ask me what language i was speaking because they thought it sounded like polish/russian, but at the same time didnt sound like it.
It's funny how so many focus on grammar drills but forget that real fluency comes from actually using the language daily. Totally changed the game for me.
Nah I gave up on Bulgarian because it was too hard even though it was my MOTHER LANGUAGE. I forgot it after learning English in school in Australia. I tried to relearn it and even uploaded videos about it on my channel lol
I am Indian and I started to learn Hindi from movies then studied it for a year or two as a kid, when I learnt inanimate things have gender in Hindi, I quit. India has 19 languages recognised by the constitution but every tribe speaks different languages(so there are more than 19 in actual) and after we study through schools having all these friends, our own language becomes a mishmash.
Since Noone wants to write a book for common man communication takes preference. Bombay hindi and up hindi are different..see the distance. In Europe you change 4 countries in that time. We Indians are masters of communication. Sign language. So much. Tone. Not mere words.
8:33 thats actually one of the reasons why I stopped learning Korean. I dont want to say 컴퓨터 ("kompyutoh") for computer, electric brain as in 电脑 sounds much cooler to me
As a foreigner with advanced level Korean I am using 셈틀(세- + -음 +틀) instead of 컴퓨터. I agree with you. When I see an English originated word I search the 순화어 of the word which is more pure(atleast hanja).

I’ll never learn Japanese. It’s not niche enough. If I wanted to learn a language as difficult as Japanese, I’d pick up Irish or Georgian, instead. Well; if this comment gets TREE(3) likes, I’ll consider it.
I get that. I'm kind of the opposite and I want to learn languages that would give me more freedom to travel to and within the country or region that it's spoken in. I would assume that almost everyone who speaks Irish also speaks English so I probably won't learn it but at the same time I am considering Welsh after I finish with Japanese, Chinese and Russia so that's a bit of a contradiction
One "language" I'll never learn is Naerpesian (närpésiska) spoken in the small town of Närpes in Finland. It's very close to Old Norse. I may reconsider if this gets 10k likes

Just so you know, for Brazilian Portuguese learners, you can totally speak your current dialect of portuguese in Portugal. All people are kind and many people I spoke to were even from Brazil. You understanding them is just a matter of opening your brain up to different dialects, which Brazil has a ton of anyways. Don’t let that chronically online guy that tried to bully Language Simp bother you if you want to go. Normal Portuguese youtubers are Talk the Streets, Portuguese with Leo and Learn European Portuguese with a Simpleton.
Referring to European and Brazilian Portuguese as different dialects is a bit of a stretch. It's like English from the US and the UK. There's no need to relearn it, you just pick up on the small differences when you are there.
Its our history. We are evolving. Good Common mans dialect and learned scholars language in every country is different. It reflects your journey. We are proud of our identity as indians. We speak diverse languages
also you are spot on about korean it's such a crude language. wherever i am watching kdrama i feel like all the sentences sound similar they just sometimes add some words before or after to form a sentence

As a native Hindi speaker the reason why some people randomly switch to English while speaking Hindi is that they don't even know the equivalent sentence in Hindi, it might shock you but some Hindi speakers don't even know how to count in Hindi. I used to be like that too then I had to learn all of that, I really feel ashamed that many native Hindi speakers don't understand their own language
It's because of the Indian schooling system which is more focused towards English rather than their native language
It's because most Hindi speakers have different regional languages. India is a very diverse country and therefore everything is very diverse here, even language there's no such thing as pure language here at least. Pure language sounds so robotic to us.
@@LoveYourself-my9nzthat is not the reason even though it is true, regional languages aren't the reason why hindi speakers don't know the basics of their language.

Oh, please don't be ridiculous, Korean doesn't just throw "smida" (습니다) at the end of every sentence.... sometimes they mix it up with a "hamnida"(합니다)!
It depends on the politeness level.
But that's only for formal speech.
If you're talking politely it's even just "-yo" (요) at the end of every sentence, even imperative and inquisitive!
Bro you just proved he's right
습니다 and 합니다 are just formal endings for statements. You hear them in announcements and formal work settings but you'd use them rarely when with friends or work colleagues. Also as a foreigner, as long as you stick a '요' or a '세요) on the end of sentences, you'll be fine. I've been here for a while and have a decent grasp of changing my speaking in certain occasions, but it's really not that hard. Although, to be a 3.1 or 3.2 level in Korean is kind of pointless for day to day stuff.

The Indian education system is pretty messed up when it comes to teaching languages. On one hand, schools keep telling us to speak only in English, but the reality is that hardly anyone actually does. Even most teachers, except the Hindi teacher, don’t always speak in English. This creates a weird situation where we don’t really get to practice English enough. And then there's Hindi, which feels like it’s pushed aside. The system treats English as more important, so we just study Hindi to pass exams rather than really learn it.
What makes it even harder is that Hindi has so many different forms and dialects. That just adds more confusion, especially when we try to speak it properly. So, we end up not being great at either language-our English isn’t polished, and our Hindi feels half-baked. The system just focuses so much on English that Hindi becomes something we cram for exams, not something we really understand or use well. It’s frustrating because we don’t end up mastering either language, and that leaves us feeling stuck somewhere in the middle.
literally just ask any indian what we call 68 or 76 or 87 in Hindi , half of them cant answer it
Hindi itself is spoken in no particular state. It evolved in delhi , up it has lot of sanskrit Persian arabic turkish mix. Every area has its own language like hindi but not hindu. India is not France or Spain. We have pretty diverse spectrum of languages. Purity is not important,communication is. Hindi is still evolving fast. Its picking up English words now. Pure literature people speak it beautifully,rest is intrest. All use it in their own way. Purity or standardization is not important..English of England and America are not same. That doesn't stop anyone from learning English. Language has a practical use. Foreigners learn hindi to shop, assimilate, be accepted. They dont otherwise. We try our English in France Spain when we fail we try their language. Its all about need. Sonia after 50 years couldn't speak, Karl Rock picked up in a week. People do follow leaders. Govt. Our new breed of leaders are fluent in hindi. So people getting aware. The language spoken in a family is the real language and its never English. Never. Its only only for work,

I studied Hindi for a few years in the nineties. (I'm white British in spite of my handle). It has a regular verb system, a grammar easily grasped, and a fairly straightforward script. The problem is the order of ideas in a sentence. I agree that is is depressing that many Hindi speakers look down upon old-fashioned Hindi words, especially high-flown Sanskrit-based words, and prefer English words as if they were superior; e.g. anyone would say 'attack' but few would say 'aakraman'.
hamla is decent enough, tbh. I don't think I'd ever say "Ukraine par attack ho gya". Though, one thing I absolutely hate is the lack of a standard Hindi keyboard layout that's available on all OSes and platforms.
@@Vagrankfdfklgfklnegfwhat are you saying. Attack is more common in Hindi now than "hamla" or "aakraman". Most people around me now use "attack"
that's sadly because English is just used too much in India, from our schoolbooks to social media to official government documents to court judgements to everyday news and to almost everything else, all are written in English. so, people in India are actually reading more English than they read their local language which results in them replacing their local words with English words. the biggest factor of all in English medium teaching in schools.

True about code switching in Hindi. It has happened to me several times that i‘ve watched UA-cam videos and wondered whether people spoke English with a very heavy Indian accent, or whether it was Hindi and English mixed.
Actually, in India, people believe that mixing Hindi and English makes them appear smarter or more sophisticated. And if someone speaks pure Hindi, they assume he is a countryman or illiterate.
@@Mehedi0fficial indians should have more respect towards their culture, only by respecting yourself you'll get others to respect you as well
It's sadly true for all the Indian languages. Thanks to the British colonisation, Indians ironically regard the English language as the symbol of sophistication. Mixing English in their language gives them the false impression that they belong to the "upper class". As you know, class hierarchy is really important for Indians. So English gives them the easy path to climb up the social hierarchy: speaking English + flaunting wealth = upper class.
I heard that the English people mixed French in their language for similar reasons during the Norman rule in England. They regarded French as the language of the upper class. Similar thing is happening now in India.
This very true,I’m Bengali and I code-switch all the time,not for the reason the person mentioned above me☝🏾 it’s mainly because my parents taught me to talk like that

You only think Korean uses -ida a lot because the verb comes at the end of the sentence and that's the usual formal/business-casual verb ending used most so it just makes it more prominent in things like TV shows.

. At 25, I'm still learning new things about the language. People often respect those who can speak pure Hindi without relying on foreign words. However, the shift to English medium schools has resulted in many substituting English terms for Hindi words, leading to a dilution of the language. Interestingly, even native speakers struggle with the pronunciation of certain words, and some words have evolved such that the way we speak them differs from how they are written. This makes mastering Hindi a continuous challenge, not just for learners but also for those who have spoken it their entire lives.
Yeah, can tell how many time my teachers literally insulted me for talking in Hindi as if it was a crime. Even in HINDI period?!!!
No language is pure. Unless you live a very closed life. People travel watch read. Vocabulary of every person reflects his learning, area where he belongs. So dont feel bad about it. Indians never snub anyone on faults. Encourage a lot. Thats beautiful. Rest don't take so much pains to teach. Real communication is that. Europeans are bad. They themselves accept.

I'm never going to learn my mother tongue, which is Igbo. My experiences learning the language have been disastrous. I ended up preferring learning Spanish, French, and Dutch to Igbo and my parents are really disappointed (especially my mother).
What is igbo??
@@Sono_CrucruNigerian language
That's because there is no language harder to learn than the one which your parents wish you could've spoken from birth and for which all your cousins back home make fun of you for not being able to speak it.
With literally any other language, there is no expectation for you to be able to speak it - you can take it at your own pace and laugh when you mess up. But with the language of your homeland, each mispronunciation and grammatical mistake makes you feel socially outcasted from your own culture. There are few feelings as humiliating.
@@m_uz1244 I was taught Igbo in high school in Nigeria, but I openly hated going to class. Classes made me feel dumber for even going to attend. Before, I was in Yoruba class and I loved learning Yoruba even if it was only for three months. And my issue with Igbo stems from wanting to articulate myself in the language by learning all the stuff like prepositions, conjunctions, and verbs to help form sentences.

I live in Korea and love the Korean language. I have been learning it for a few years and my Korean skills are pretty good... It just makes so much sense. As an engineer, I feel like it fits with my brain and it all seems so formulaic.
I love (and learn) Korean because it just sounds so beautiful. And I love hangul. Korean is quite dufficult tho... I'm also learning Japanese which is easier for me but I hate all three writing systems lol.
I remember that the Korean writing system was borrowed by a small Indonesian language because it was designed to be logical.
I have also heard other linguists praise the Korean writing system.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m more “reserved” or “quiet” but I like speaking the Portugal dialect over the Brazilian. I know Portugal, Brasil, and Angolan dialects but I enjoy the Portuguese more

Spot on , Pure Hindi is literally spoken by a minority in India,mostly old folks,the young generation mostly speaks Hinglish or even a mix of local language+Hindi+English
THANK you so much for saying this about Hindi. I want to learn Hindi but this is one of my huge problems with trying to learn it, that you actually have to FIND language programs that have curated dialogues which make it possible. I think this is one of the reasons why Pimsleur needs to get Hindi to level 5.
Good for you on wanting to learn the other languages there too. Telugu has some great movies, easily as good as many Bollywood. Tamil does well as well. You do have to watch out as some of that some complaint you made about Hindi has made its way into Telugu content with English as well. I think a little of that may be in Tamil as well. Mahayalam and others not sure.
I will say with those if you watch maybe a decent bit of 10 or 20 year old movies you may totally be good though.
Bengali is a good language for cinema traditions - lots of interesting, intellectual stuff. Gujarati is the best for saving money. Punjabi might be best if you like parties
@@CommonContentArchive Actually I think Bangladesh may be one of the great new places for fantastic Horror movies.
I saw "Hawa" and while it was too much of a slow burn for me it was pitch perfect structurewise. You should be VERY proud of that movie and the director and the rest should be teaching because there is very little actual scary Horror coming out of your part of the world. That was serious and scary.
Personally, as a Russian, I will NEVER learn French

Having such a long list of languages, that you're never going to learn is a pity. Why restrict yourself in such a way?

I can speak konkani since i was born in goa lol. Had the langaugae pre installed

2:05 that might be the case because you might have been exposed to the Korean on broadcast. The highest politeness register uses "-supnita" extensively, but you can also find many other endings if you, say, try to listen to conversations in other settings. But yeah, the politeness register itself could be a nightmare for second-language learners. That's another story.
I don't think that's the highest politeness level
@@dperrymIt is. What do you mean you don't think, when you don't even know?
@@Reiss-Historia then 하소서체 (hasoseoche) is less polite?

@@perf2.078 yeah bro, besides the two languages having a lot of similarities between them, they sound extremely different from each other
The reason for hindi speakers to be that way is first hindi and english both are official languages so after independence people might have focused on english more as they already knew hindi. Cuz english would not only be used in official works but also as the ONLY medium to communicate all the people around india. YES YOU READ IT RIGHT. As india had 1500+ languages at the time of independence and then they later grouped the similar languages for example languages like rajasthani, bhojpuri,haryanvi, etc. Were grouped under the name of HINDI. which explains why different people translate it differently. Me myself living in rajasthan and having a totally different ethnicity than most rajasthani people i often struggle. As rajasthan also is divided in different areas and guess what with different languages. YES! That's why it's said that in india after every 10 kms language changes. Well even after grouping the amount of languages left were 600+ [idk the exact count] so they termed 22 languages out of them as scheduled languages as they had a considerable amount of speakers. And the other were called non-scheduled. After all the stats, hindi was the most spoken with about 40% of speakers speaking it. Can you imagine only 40%? And so even if they wanted to make it the National language they couldn't cuz only people from north spoke the language and so it was a mess. So the government gave all the people 15 years of time to learn the language. Making both the hindi and English the official languages of india. But it's 75 yrs of independence still it's not been removed from that position. What the heck is government doing!? BUT i think It's also our mistake that we agreed to make a language that ruled over us for about 300 years to give it that place but would not want one of our own language to be the one. And the way politicians and other people make us indians [north and south india] fight over this for just some votes or just break us idk what do people even do it for? It's just ridiculous and straightforward heinous. Even kids are not taught the real reason as to why hindi is taught everywhere in india. One of my online (ex) frnd from tamil nadu once told me her teachers told her that you need to go do job in north and that's why u need to learn hindi. Which is ridiculous. Like can you imagine? A person will obviously get defensive like what's wrong with south india? It's ahead of us in many ways. And she didn't even know that there are 22 scheduled language and all the stuff [not to say all Tamalians are like that infact i find them the smartest but just an example to show how people create misunderstanding and just how the lack of information really make us indians fight over nothing] and she was really defensive as to why only hindi was given all the importance and made the official language💀 like 😭🤌 it was the MOST SPOKEN. But anyways as the result, india became westernized as the only thing that works as a barrier is language. And English was not a barrier for us and there it is. Today's india where teaching English is more important than teaching any of the india's languages or history, where western culture is cool but our own culture is neglected. Despite having so many festivals they get overly excited for Halloween and christmas which nothing is wrong with that but i've seen people showing disgust for our own culture. [I was myself was slipping into that mentality! Tbh, just a person pulled me out of it quite harshly but im thankful] and where our own language is embarrassing but English is cool. Where if you speak your own language ur illiterate but if you know how to speak english that's considered classy. Me even myself am from a school where it was mandatory to speak English and they punished us if we spoke hindi. Ludicrous and Terrible ain't it? I have recently developed an intrest for language learning and after completing this language i am already half way through i will learn our languages tamil gujrati marathi etc. It even hurts me to see that there are thousands of great teachers teaching other languages for free on youtube but for hindi and the other indian languages there's barely a few. That's a shame really on us. India's youth. [Im counting myself in]
Bulgarian, on the other hand, has developed a highly coplex verbal system that no other Slavic language share.
What do you mean?
What’s that
Because it's one of the oldest,but Russia as a whole country is more "popular", known and bigger ,so people always think of Russian
Technically it didn't develop this verbal system, but rather retained it from proto-slavic, while all other Slavic languages have simplified their verbs
@@mrgriboman371 I don't speak Bulgarian myself, but the slavic philologists I consulted say that Bulgarian not only retained the protoslavic status quo, but also innovated, making its verbal system more complicated than it was. I talk about the so called inferential mood and the adverbial participle. I won't die on this hill because for me it is indirect knowledge but I trust those philologists to have been accurate.
My native language is Arabic and I taught myself Korean (not fluently, but I can understand a lot). I knew K-pop and K-drama almost 14 years ago and since I was spending a lot of time consuming Korean content, I thought why not learning the alphabet at least? I gave it a try and the alphabet is quite easy, unlike the assumption of those who never tried learning it. Then, I started teaching myself more and more more I learned, the more I loved this language. It sounds beautiful to me and the way words are combined is interesting. And no, it's not all "smnida". This is just a suffix that indicates you're speaking formally and there are other suffixes used depending on the formality level, and if you're not speaking formally, the sentence end won't really be any suffix. It's just that the Korean culture has a big influence on the language itself, which is something I personally like.

Spanish (Learned, close to fluent, still need to increase vocabulary knowledge): Lot of Mexicans in California, many older people can't speak English, plus it's easy.
Japanese (Struggling, speak okay, I suck at reading, only know 80-90 kanji): My grandparents speak it to me at times, they can't speak English too well, plus half of people at their church only speak Japanese.
French (So far know present, telling time, comparative, superlative, forming adverbs and past tense plus about 100 words): Heard it's useful for business, haven't used it yet though, either way, it's pretty easy.
Korean (So far, know how to read it plus a few words and some grammar): Met these Korean people who couldn't speak English well, I asked them a question, they asked me to repeat it in Korean.
Mandarin: Similar reason as Korean, but in Hacienda Heights, I met a lot of people who only speak Mandarin, I had to TA a kindergarten class where some of the kids only spoke Mandarin.
Russian: I sometimes indirectly meet Russian Americans, some can't speak English.
Vietnamese: Same reason as Russian.

I am Indian and I started to learn Hindi from movies then studied it for a year or two as a kid, when I learnt inanimate things have gender in Hindi, I quit. India has 19 languages recognised by the constitution but every tribe speaks different languages(so there are more than 19 in actual) and after we study through schools having all these friends, our own language becomes a mishmash.
Since Noone wants to write a book for common man communication takes preference. Bombay hindi and up hindi are different..see the distance. In Europe you change 4 countries in that time. We Indians are masters of communication. Sign language. So much. Tone. Not mere words.

Just so you know, for Brazilian Portuguese learners, you can totally speak your current dialect of portuguese in Portugal. All people are kind and many people I spoke to were even from Brazil. You understanding them is just a matter of opening your brain up to different dialects, which Brazil has a ton of anyways. Don’t let that chronically online guy that tried to bully Language Simp bother you if you want to go. Normal Portuguese youtubers are Talk the Streets, Portuguese with Leo and Learn European Portuguese with a Simpleton.
Referring to European and Brazilian Portuguese as different dialects is a bit of a stretch. It's like English from the US and the UK. There's no need to relearn it, you just pick up on the small differences when you are there.
Hearing this guy say “Assalam alaikum” and “Dobro pozhalovat’” in one sentence was a whole cultural reset for me
