Guess the Language! Original video by @itsNNAU This is a bonus @JackSucksAtGeography video as I don't think I was quite entertaining enough for that channel!
Cant wait for all the Reddit posts about the mistakes Jack made like saying Romania borders Greece, Turkmenistan borders Russia and Kurdish being spoken in Kyrgyzstan
The portuguese one was kind of unusually dramatic, so it wasn't gonna be super easy. Important note is that EU portuguese sounds quite different to brazilian portuguese.
That vocal sample sounded nada like Portuguese, plus the audio quality was so afI - I know Portuguese (intermediate level) and can understand almost everything in Portuguese when spoken properly and clearly (especially Brazilian Portuguese) because I am native speaker level in Spanish, and even I couldn’t tell it was Portuguese!
As a language nerd, I confirm this was really hard, I got 5 points. For Latvian, I didn't have it until I heard "Jūrmala" wich is a city and a beach in Latvia.
Jack, if it makes you feel any better, I'm fluent in Portuguese and it took me half of the time to realize that was the language lol. (Portugal's Portuguese sounds so different from Brazil's, it's crazy)
@@prathamisgreat But I wonder where in Portugal that woman that was speaking is from, because she sounded a little different than what I'm used to hearing from Portuguese people. I could obviously identify she's from Portugal but her accent still sounded a bit odd for me
@@Mill_Jr That's the literal voice when i think of a Portuguese news channel or Portuguese radio they all sound the same imo maybe it's just the way she's talking idrk
I got 5 correct but to be fair I am from east who moved to Europe so i did have quite a substantial advantage but this just goes to show how much diverse the world is and how less we know about the world that we live in, crazy.
Why would I even want to know about non-pretty languages tho - this wasn’t fun to guess at all, because they included mostly non-pretty languages that no one has even heard of and no one can guess, instead of including mostly or only pretty languages like Dutch / Norwegian / Icelandic / Swedish / Welsh / Gallo / Catalan / Galician etc and all the other Germanic languages and Celtic languages and most Latin languages, which are really fun to guess!
Technically, most languages aren’t a pretty language, and non-pretty and boring languages shouldn’t be spoken, so everyone should be learning the pretty and unique languages like Dutch & English (which are the prettiest and most refined languages with the most pretty and poetic words) and Norwegian and Welsh and Gallo etc and the other Germanic languages and the other 5 Celtic languages and most other Latin languages like French / Portuguese / Italian / Esperanto / Spanish / Galician / Catalan / Occitan etc!
Its so weird hearing all those languages and not underatanding them but then comes your language and you understand it clearly. It feels like something fresh idk. BTW im Estonian 🇪🇪
The portuguese one was from a sketch on TV being extra dramatic, I’m Portuguese and it took me a second to actually identify it, so most definitely not the best example to use in the video, people speaking normally sounds absolutely nothing like that
I wonder if Jack should do a multiple choice but with deliberately similar options for example, choosing Welsh or Breton or trying to distinguish between Dutch & Frisian
I got 5 German: I am learning German Portuguese: I know Portuguese French: My brother in leaning French Polish: Guessed Lao: Guessed (I actually is laoanian)
It's a weird feeling when your just listening to these languages and just guess where they're from and suddenly you start understanding this random language in the list. It's weird how our brain works
Bro, I could've SWORN that the Portuguese woman said a few Russian words, and I'm saying this as someone who lives in an ex-soviet country and hears Russian frequently. So strange that 2 completely unrelated languages sound so similar
As an Arab, I would say they were pretty close to our language, plus some of them are in fact Arabians but with added words/diff accents so were pretty close. 😊
As a language nerd eho obsessed with geography, flags and things like that I'm so happy that I guessed 10 of them right. I got really close on some of them but i wanted to play fair so I only counted 10 correct :D
Guessed 5/22. German, Latvian, French, Polish and Ukranian (yep, as I am ukrainian). And yep, I guessed Polish just becouse of huge amount of *SH* sounds. Sorry, polish bros. Shame on me. P.S. And I haven't actually guessed Latvian. I just heard Jurmala (city in Latvia) in the last seconds and tryed. And it was nice try!
I actually guessed Luxembourgish right. It sounded a bit like French but as a German i could understand a bit. I guessed Dutch but i thought no Dutch sounds different so I thought of which countries are in this area, leaving me with Luxembourg.
5/22 I guessed German, Kazakh, Turkmen ('cause of the name of their president-dictator in the audio), Polish, Ukrainian. I partially guessed Portuguese (I supposed that it was Port., Spanish or Romanian), Kurdish (I thought it was Turkish), Latvian ('cause of Jurmala), Slovenian (I decided it was Czech), French (I supposed it was Italian) and Hebrew (I just forgot what language has this special pronunciation, I needed more time, lol). I also thought about Luxembourgish that it was Spanish.
how on earth Luxembourgish is confused with spanish??? It sounds sooo german, is obvious a german dialekt. On waht universe german sounds like spanish??
@@gerardsotxoa I tell You even more fun thing: as for me there're also Polish notes in Luxembourgish language (●'◡'●) Spanish and German are similar for me because of "clear" pronunciation and strong plosive consonants. And there is word "Portuguese", what made me think about Spain, lol
There are 194 countries in this world each with there own language . And only in India there are 22 official languages but jack has said PUNJABI 3 times in this video (i think the only Indian language known by him)🤣🤣
@@cool_guy87 I just said least number of countries widely recognised Btw there are 195 Countries according to United Nations 201 Countries with at least partial recognition 327 Countries according to Travelers Century Club 205 De facto Countries (sell- declared states) 211 Countries Recognized by FIFA committee 206 Countries recognized by the Olympic committee I HOPE NOW YOU UNDERSTOOD THE WHOLE MATTER THANK U❣️❣️
I'm glad that I recognised Luxembourgish! I also could recognise Portuguese, as I speak Spanish, and a bit of Portuguese I also could recognise German and French 'cause I wanted to learn those I knew it was Luxembourgish 'cause it sounded similar to German but different as well, as mixed with Dutch or Afrikaans
Got 6 correct. Gotta say, if we guessed the language of a country which borders the country where the correct language is spoken, I could have had about 12 points
"Romania borders Greece" 💀💀💀
I questioned my country's existence for a second there lmao
Bulgaria is between Romania and Greece
"Turkmenistan borders Russia" 💀💀💀
I guess Jack still DOES suck at Geography!
Jk, we appreciate the work you put into learning Jack.
💀
Jack thinks leaning closer to the monitor will make it sound louder when he is wearing headphones and that’s not where the sound comes from!
"Romania borders Greece"
"Turkmenistan borders Russia"
Jack I think you gotta practice your geography again 💀
Thats true
He should practice geography again

He does not believe that Bulgaria and Kazakstan exists

Yeah
Did he not say Kurdistan not Kyrgyzstan
@@Aidansands2 kurdistan is not a place, kurdish is spoken in the mountainous regions of Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Turkey.
@@bhaavyaseth Kurdistan is a region in the Middle East look it up
@@aayushpatel5208 Yes but he means not as an independent nation, so blame the British for that.
Jack is redrawing borders:
Turkmenistan now borders Russia
Romania now borders Greece
Also Jack: Kurdish is spoken in Kyrgyzstan.
Such a British thing to do lol

Thanks as always for playing along with the video Jack! 😁😁
The portuguese one was kind of unusually dramatic, so it wasn't gonna be super easy. Important note is that EU portuguese sounds quite different to brazilian portuguese.
Yeah, that was a bad Portuguese example, i think this is why the test was soooo difficult
The audio in Portuguese is from a Portuguese TV show and the voice is that of the Portuguese humorist, Maria Rueff.
I speak Brazilian Portuguese and the whole time I was like "this is not portuguese at all"
EU Portuguese sounds more like a Slavic language, Brazilian Portuguese sounds more like Spanish
That vocal sample sounded nada like Portuguese, plus the audio quality was so afI - I know Portuguese (intermediate level) and can understand almost everything in Portuguese when spoken properly and clearly (especially Brazilian Portuguese) because I am native speaker level in Spanish, and even I couldn’t tell it was Portuguese!
bro said romania borders greece 💀
Jack should do more of these they are kinda entertaining
i knew portuguese from the “muito curiosa” bit
i love this series!
love the new videos on jsac, love this
Ah yes they speak Kurdish in Kyrgyzstan 💀
it’s so strange suddenly hearing a language that you understand when everything else has been just strange sounds :DD
As a language nerd, I confirm this was really hard, I got 5 points. For Latvian, I didn't have it until I heard "Jūrmala" wich is a city and a beach in Latvia.

*Jack is posting very long “clips” now!!😂*
Love the videos, man. Keep it up!!!
These extra vids have genuinely been pretty interesting
"Kurdish in Kyrgyzstan" 💀💀
Kurdish is the official language of Kurdistan.
Btw, in case anyone was curious, #10/3:45/Hebrew is talking about the weather of the Mediterranean sea.
oohh yay this is awesome, you should create a JackSucksAtTrivia for these types of videos since they’re not fit for JSAG!!!
6:22 kurdish:"I assume they speak that in kyrgyzstan" no kurdish use the kurdish people which are located mainly in turkey, iran, syria and iraq
I bet jack says “I was young I was foolish” in the Reddit video
The portuguese one was from a sketch on TV being extra dramatic, I’m Portuguese and it took me a second to actually identify it, so most definitely not the best example to use in the video, people speaking normally sounds absolutely nothing like that
"Hey, Romania Borders Greece"😂😂😂😂😂😂
I wonder if Jack should do a multiple choice but with deliberately similar options for example, choosing Welsh or Breton or trying to distinguish between Dutch & Frisian
I bet Jacksucksatclips is gonna become a itsnnau reaction channel
Jack is the type of guy to lean over to hear while having headphones on
Jean Lassalle 😂😂😂 that’s very cheeky, French people barely understand him when he speaks, he has a very characteristic southern accent.
Hebrew and Arabic are similar at the base of the language but sound very different by the way in the part played it is about the Weather
Romania borders greece
Ok boys lets change the map
Jack. I love when you’re playing GeoGuessr, can you maybe consider playing it again?😅
This channel has basically become JackSucksAtGeography2 now
6:27 Kurdish Is definitely spoken in Kyrgyzstan
As a brazilian the start sounded like russian then after I recognized it. Can't blame you for failing, but for saying it's vietnamese
Why is this channel becoming geography? 😂 I'm not complaining 😂
“Turkmenistan borders Russia” good job Jack.
Polish people when he guessed Russian: I’m offended 😖
That must be offensive to you

"Romania borders Greece"
"Turkmenistan borders Russia"
"Kurdish, which I assume the speak in Kyrgyzstan" 💀☠
The Armenia one literally talked about Yerevan 🔥
5:42 Its definitely Ukrainian
It's a weird feeling when your just listening to these languages and just guess where they're from and suddenly you start understanding this random language in the list.
It's weird how our brain works
You should actually consider posting these on geography stuff too
Love anything to do with linguistics!
I have known many languages because of movies 😂
I was hoping for Cymraeg, I love seeing people's reaction to the language as its so silly
Jack's laugh is contagious
We tried jack i got 2 as well
1 - german
2 - tamil
It's often spoken about how much Portuguese sounds slavic!
Bro, I could've SWORN that the Portuguese woman said a few Russian words, and I'm saying this as someone who lives in an ex-soviet country and hears Russian frequently. So strange that 2 completely unrelated languages sound so similar
Jack: Romania borders Greece
Bulgaria: Am I a joke to you?
MORE OF THIS ONE PLSSS
As an Arab, I would say they were pretty close to our language, plus some of them are in fact Arabians but with added words/diff accents so were pretty close. 😊
They weren't they are older languages than arabic
no, its not that hebrew sound like arabic is that arabic sound like hebrew! hebrew is one of the oldest languages and its a lot older than Arabic
