Not to belittle the guy. I'm sure he was quite bright. But no, it does not take particular genius to do something eight year olds do, but in a second language. I think you feel that way because you are (and I'm guessing here) an American. Or at least an inhabitant of an English speaking country, correct? You have this comfy situation where you won't ever need to learn a second language if you don't want to, because everyone on the entire North American continent speaks the same language as you. And most foreigners do too, to a more or lesser degree. In Europe, on the other hand, every country has their own language (and some, like mine, more than one). If we want to communicate among each other, we can not avoid learning a second language. Over time, English has become that lingua franca that everyone falls back to when communicating with folks from another country who don't speak their own language. So no, it's not particularly hard for us foreigners to understand, and engage in linguistic humour in English.
@@EvenTheDogAgreesThere's one in every crowd. Our federal government used to require that incoming migrants be taught English. There used to be classes for such. Not any more. There is too many (millions) of people illegally flooding across our southern boarder. Because the Biden Regime counts them as potential voters for him, he doesn't care. And he has made that obvious to those Americans that are paying attention and concerned. We never had this invasion under the Trump administration. That is why Biden us stepping things up concerning the southern border. We were having nationwide a severe housing crisis BEFORE the millions coming in. So you can imagine what it's like right now. They are pouring in from 149 nations making what is happening throughout Europe look like a trickle. We have homeless veterans living on the streets. Who defended this country, and they are being swept aside for the liberal authoritarian concerns of countless, paperless, illegals. They were told by "Heir Biden" that they are all welcome to come to America..that you will get free stuff! Like housing, food , medical care, schooling for children, free free free! (At the taxpayer's expense! Many of them were asked why they came. They say that President Biden invited us and we will be taken care of, and there is free social services and housing. No one knows who they are or what their intentions are. Most of them are young men without identities. Yesterday, there was several hundred young Chinese men grouped together who came over our border. Military like. Some are complaining the ones who have been given luxury hotels with free services (in New York) including liquor, marijuana, and cigarettes for free..supposedly to keep them off the streets. These are complaining because their 60 day time limits were drawing to a close. Apparently, they are "rotating* these immigrants..at taxpayer's expense. It NEVER was like this with President Trump! And you can owe this to the Biden Regime that our federal debt is about 18 TRILLION dollars. A good portion of that debt is used towards illegals. Many of us are greatly concerned that as popular (contrary to listening to the fake news!) as President Trump is, that when our next election comes up in 2024, that Biden will somehow steal the election AGAIN, Luke they did in 2020. To back up when I said that he is popular, go on line to RSBN (Right side Broadcasting Network) Afor the Trump rallies sometimes they scan the massive crowds..regardless of what state he's in it's always Like that in support of him.MASSIVE crowds! If you can get Biden's attention between naps, when/ IF he goes out for a gathering, you will see maybe a hundred People there and usually most of them are from the media.. And "The sound of crickets;" Soo Now you can see that at least half the country call President Trump out President. The ENEMY of the people dwells among us. The media has been bought out and are doing the damndest to propagandize the people as they spew lies about President Trump... Just like the Nazis did in WW 2 to the Germans and made it believable to them. Their are now more tent cities full of illegals throughout America.. this is a massive invasion and we need to bring this governing force out now. Trump is to America like Winston Churchill was to England , at 73 years old and a"baby boomer," I knew about him and I admired him greater than FDR! And I am here to say that "The Greatest Generation" ( WW 2 generation) would have supported Donald Trump 100% as di we do.Google Donald Trump's accomplishments in office ..the man was brilliant!) The generations that have come after me (in particular) have never experienced any heavy propaganda. So because of this, particularly the social and MSM, they are very gullible and subjected to "the Dumbing down"of America. Many of them vote for the WRONG people because of what they have been subjected to .Just like the results of brain washing the mass into being deceived into voting evil into office (read in the Bible from Book of Isaiah 5:20 ) it is prophet and being "demon"strated throughout the world today.

As others said, this video is gr9! At 1:10, (2:21 in IL) he said the word "sentence". It should have been "sen11ce". At 4:31, (5:42 in IL) he said "Any2 for 11nis?". It should have been "Any2 5 11nis?". (From Joey)
The first (inflationary) simply takes any word with a number in it (even if not spelled like the number) and increases the number by one. So WON(sounds like one)derful becomes TWOderful. BeFORE(sounds like four) becomes beFIVE. And so forth (or so fifth, as it were).The second is just making sounds to replace what we use in writing, things like a . or a , or a : or a - for example.
An absolutely twoderful perfivemance! He is (or at least should be) two of the world's most revered and decornined comedians of all time!!
And we should not fiveget how easily he perfivemed his act on stage every night.
@@Qqwerty42 A grenine perfivemance.
Can't even imagine the amount of endless repetition and rehearsal required to perfect this routine. What preparation!
but you think the piano playing was a doddle?
“An amateur will practice until he gets it right. A professional practice until he cannot get it wrong.”
This routine always makes me truly laugh out loud! He was two of a kind!
A twoderful gentleman. This is appropriate five the times we are in.
Rest in peace and rise in glory Victor Borge.
Combining inflammation and the punctuation would be a nightmare
Hmmm...telling inflation jokes TODAY⁉️ 🤣
Remarkable Danish talent and comic and pianist!! Thank you, Victor!!! Laughter is the best medicine did this troubled world!!!
He is so wonderfully talented and incredibly fun. The world became a sadder place when he passed. God Bless you Victor Borge. May you rest in PEACE

Brilliant. Funnier than anything around today.
I remember this being aired on CBC in the late 81's and have used inflationary language exelevensively since
me three.
Genius.
How utterly brilliant Mr B was. Did he ever mix Inflation and Punctuation together I wonder? That would have been doubly hilarious💙.
Some things are too hot to touch. The human mind can only stand so much.
A comic & musical genius!😂
absolutely brilliant!!!!!!
Surely that would be the best three jokes together.

I think he did when he was working with school children.

Why couldn't he combine inflationary language with phonetic punctuation?

Maybe it should be "5 gr11 7 me" due to how much time has passed, then.
