    Eu entendo bem o espanhol mas o italiano é um pouco mais complicado, estive na Itália e entendia muito pouco os italianos, eles falam muito rápido, já na Espanha é mais fácil do que o português de Portugal. Francês eu já não entendo nada...

    As a Croat I expected to somewhat understand Ukrainian, and maybe a little of Bulgarian, but whenever I think of Polish I'm giving up immediately. Turns out I could understand Polish girl the best of all 3, I think they usually talk too fast that's why I never could understand them until now.

    Dialektiek of nie, ek het gehoor dat Afrikaans baie na aan Vlaams is. Dit is 'n seën om 'n nabygeleë taal te hê. My moedertaal is Koreaans, Jeju-taal is in Jeju-eiland, en ek verstaan ​​nie alles nie, maar ek kan hierdie taal min of meer verstaan. Die Jeju-taal sal egter verdwyn. As gevolg van hierdie realiteit sal die Koreaanse taal selfs meer geïsoleer word, wat isolerende taal genoem word. Daar is nie meer neeftaal naby my nie.

    Soy española, y entendí absolutamente todo lo que dijo la chica italiana, y nunca he estudiado italiano ni he ido a Italia. Por cierto, que 'inchiostro' tiene el mismo origen que la palabra española 'encausto' que tiene varios significados, todos relacionados con tinta, precisamente: tinta roja con que firmaban los emperadores; una técnica de pintar o tintar; etc. Creo que a poco que te guste leer literatura española, y más si lees un poco de diferentes épocas, tienes léxico suficiente para encontrar semejanzas y orígenes comunes de palabras castellanas con muchas palabras de otros idiomas romances.

    As a German language learner, I can tell that Dutch is so close to German. No wonder I could guess almost everything right. But I must say that Dutch sounds like a badly pronounced German.

    The split between Brythonic and Gaelic is very far back in time, and, of course, it is almost impossible for their respective speakers to understand each other.
