It's so cool that I find so many languages in Amsterdam when I wear this t-shirt. I really enjoyed the reactions of the strangers and it was definitely an awesome day with a huge variation of languages.
Feel free to share the CZcams link of this video on other social media pages, websites or forums.
I love the guy who's like, "no, I'm not that into bubble tea," then proceeds to try and get as many bubble tea coupons as he can 😂
Also, you should try learning Axomiya (Assamese). It's a beautiful language!
@@flibbertygibbette Any sites to learn assamese?I am going to assam next month!
For his gf maybe
Wonna aa Paelzisch konn wär ich echt b'eidruggt.
He was a business man doing business
The fact that his "I don't speak it well" is still good enough to recognize it in casual conversation.... Incredible. I've dabbled in some languages, but the hardest part was always understanding the layman variations.
shut up mr uganda
He didn't do well with bulgarian tho 😅 idk about the other languages but he literally said "I don't speak bulgarian" in Russian....the man was flustered as well 😂
@@graciie77 but he gave that man free bubble tea lol
@@graciie77 wow Sherlock, thats why he said he doesnt speak it. Maybe he chose Russian, because its slavic too
@@graciie77 also italian was really poor and weird, but there's of course time to improve it (or should i say learn it)
LMAO when the 2 dudes asked if he spoke Japanese and he replied in Korean “yes I can speak Korean” 😂
So I'm not the only one who noticed! 😂
But then he did speak in Japanese so I’m just confused now 😂
To be honest his Japanese is not good もうちょっと頑張ってね😊
his japanese isn't that great, the way he speaks isn't really natural, he says "watashi wa" way too much which makes his sentences weird
@@commentbot9510 I think he doesn't have a whole lot of practice with Japanese yet; for someone who isn't super used to hearing both of them, Korean and Japanese can sound a bit similar.
~:~
I was impressed until he got to a language I speak and then I realize he is just BARLEY speaking coherent sentences 😭
Same! Props to him for remembering so many phrases in Russian and other languages though. :D
🤣🤣
Lmao true ahahah when he switched to French and said that sentence about positivity, I had to read the subtitles cuz I couldn't understand what he was saying 😭 But he's doing good tho
It's impressive either way, but I could tell that he wasn't fluent in Japanese when he kept saying 私は (watashi wa) every sentence.
@@Sen_413 same lmaooo
side note: props to this man for wearing a tshirt while everyone else is wearing winter jackets
Lol
Yeah he is that one dude we all know
That's just living in the Netherlands !
That is because he is Dutch 😉
lol that is weird
I have cousins in southern Arkansas that could probably win free Boba Tea by simply speaking English. 😂
Pittsburgh too, got a weird accent and dialect there
Fr I used to live in south Arkansas 😭
LMFAOOOO
aye i was born and raised in arkansas then moved to florida. them florida mfs be verbally speakin braile
@@cameronk6771 I'mma make u mad
Ark-Can-Sis
Hehehehaw
As a Chinese person I can tell he has an extremely strong accent when speaking, unlike anyone I’ve heard before but it’s so impressive
Mhm, it’s a really strong accent but impressive since I don’t know how to speak Mandarin, only understand some. But I do know how to speak Cantonese lol
As an American, I can tell you a lot of Chinese immigrants speak English in my country with a very strong accent XD
Haha
@@trainerred6582 he’s being praised while generally (not saying you) if we have a strong accent we are laughed or mocked at, which is pretty sad.
@@AiyaaaJenny 因为她会说多种语言and peoples are still able to understand him
@@Wwanonymouswarrior I know he can speak many languages but that is not the point of my initial comment. I am just saying generally as a Chinese person too, we often get laughed at when we speak with an accent, even when we can generally communicate pretty well.
不是她, 是"他". 他是个男人.
I love this! I see a lot of people pointing out that some languages were quite elementary like it's a bad thing, but it is honestly so valuable to know even just a couple sentences in another language. It instantly allows you to meet and connect with so many new people because it's not about being fluent in a language, it's about having enough love for languages, cultures, and people all over the globe that allows you to connect with others.
For example, when I visited Korea I was much more successful in communicating just by learning the phrase "I don't speak Korean, but I can speak English in Japanese." Hearing it in their native tongue made them more relaxed and open to communicating in a language we shared, while trying to do everything completely in English would have been more stressful.
I love when he just throws in random phrases that you just wouldn't say in normal conversation like "I like to eat at restaurants" that's me when I learn a language 😅 I hold on to certain phrases and try to throw them in for padding lol
Yep kudos to him for being interested in learning some sentences in every language but he doesn't speak any of these languages, except for 3 or 4.
@@jzgame1 Yeah, it is rather dishonest to say he speaks some of them. I can only really speak for the only language I know outside of English though, which is Japanese, and his Japanese is very beginner level. I imagine he'd have a hard time understanding any dialect.
@@jzgame1 I wouldn't count it as him just memorizing few sentences of each language because while speaking some of them he made grammar mistakes. I myself know 5 languages from different clusters so I can see that he really makes up those phrases by himself. It was evident when he spoke languages like Russian which has a really strange relationships with sentences' structure. Plus collocations and limited use of phraseology just screams that he really learned language to every-day level
@@taraktach7152 the sentences wouldn't be so irrelevant to the point of nonsensical, though. He's just half-remembering the couple of phrases he memorized so he can call it a day and say he knows the language.
@@jzgame1he already talked about how he isn’t that great at many languages, and is just trying to show that he knows it. I found it weird until I realized like what else is he supposed to say the these strangers that he just met
The two Asians speak so much languages it's crazy !
Hahaha they really surprised me. They started with Japanese and Chinese, and I was so happy that I spoke them. I never expected the 4 other Asian languages haha
@@WouterCorduwener Shanghainese isn't a language, it's a mandarin dialect.
@@darksnow1111 as long as it has unique characters it can be termed a language. And not just a dialect
@@successraphael6974 it's a dialect it doesn't have unique characters
@@darksnow1111 yep
Man, even him saying "No, I don't speak Bulgarian." is impressive. It's a simple sentence but it made him sound fluent. As a Bulgarian myself, I approve :) .

very Bulgarian moment, as a Bulgarian I got myself shopska salata and rakiya to enjoy this moment
Буквално го каза на руски 😃 направо и аз отивам да бутна една шопска с ракия с човека от горния коментар. Много българско 💅🏻
Веднага ти приготвям една салата, и имам 2 бутилки от кока кола с ракията на дядо, сестро! 💅
@@radinaatanasova и аз ще донеса една дюлева от дядо от Варвара в шише от Банкия... да обменим опит с научни цели 😉🍻 и почваме на руски да говорим, та още по-българки да се почувстваме, нали сестро😂
@@graciie77 Чудесно, сестро! Ще дадем и на другите при мен да пробват, да имаме повече субекти за този експеримент! Говорим по руски и айде, вече сме 101% българи! 😁🇧🇬
speaking other languages and gives out around 10-15 bubble teas, and gets thousands of dollars from youtube, that's a win-win
This is incredible!!! Just the fact that he recognizes it so fast and can actually hold a conversation is way more than just “learning phrases”! I’m impressed 😁
True facts it’s literally true fact right there
@Clayton Catlin They obviously mean that if you're not proficient enough in a language then you can't "carry" a conversation with another person so you're not capable of "holding" a conversation with someone trying to speak with you... Always gotta be that person that wants to sound smart.
@@MrJUSTchr1s Exactly 😊
This is literally so impressive. Why can some people learn so many languages just like that. I mean his mandarin wasn’t the greatest in terms of pronunciation/tone which is especially important in Mandarin, but hey, it’s not like I know a million languages.
It’s easier when your exposed to them on a daily basis
Same thoughts with the Arabic 👏🏽!!
Same for Japanese and Spanish, but yeah still impressive how he can communicate in that many languages lol
I dont think he goes for native fluency. just conversational
same in finnish, but i understand because finnish is pretty hard to pronounce
Maaaan I'm Indian and I'd buy him a bubble tea if he can speak any of my languages! This is super impressive 🙌
I bet he can't even speak one
@@9arwa9a32 He just made a video he can speak 5 Indian languages
This video made me smile! I love how you aren't afraid to speak the amount you know. You are engaging and people respond to your openness and friendliness in kind. I always feel nervous trying to speak a foreign tongue and that anxiety can stop me from improving. You show us that trying is all it takes! I grew up in a bilingual family in the USA (Spanish and English although some only spoke Spanish). and with many Russian and Ukranian-speaking people. When I went to college, I took Russian in class for fun and it is amazing how much you learn in a casual chat. I roomed with people who spoke Hindi and Arabic, then later with people who spoke Irish language and Urdu. I wish I had your ability to retain languages, but I only got words and phrases. You remind me of all the great people I have met and grown with who spoke many languages...and watching you have positive interactions with people gives me the courage to continue studying languages and go find people to chat with! THANK YOU! You seem very kind! SUBBED!
I was like “he probably doesn’t speak Dutch”
*this is literally recorded in Amsterdam*
yeah, I saw the thumbnail and went 'wait I know that waterstones'
His name literally sounds Dutch..💀
@@merinikoghosyan4745 why would I look at his name tho 😃
@@NiccivVliet cuz it's the name of the channel
@@merinikoghosyan4745 but if I see a recommended video, I click on it, I’m not gonna scroll down to see their name first
That Norwegian guy hit you up with an evil dialect not even children from Oslo can understand lmao
sounds pretty clear to me, i understood everything.
Idk man, he sounds like he came from Stavanger or something idk. Still very clear tho.
Lmao I thought he was speaking Swedish
Really only difference from oslo dialect there is the A endings instead of E, still very oslo friendly in my opinion
@@Katalystic oslo friendly?
The way the two asian guys seemed like they may have been more than friends but wouter told him to get a boba with a nice lady was so funny
I like the more extended conversations. Really cool seeing people light up.
I'm very jealous! I wish America would start teaching languages at a much younger age. By the time I got to highschool when foreign language classes were a requirement, I had no interest in learning. By the time I was interested in learning, it became difficult because of my age.
I agree with you fully. I went through the same thing.
Speaking of that there is this one school in my area who was the only one who did exactly that and all kids by the time they graduated that elementary were pretty happy as by the end of it they would all know Spanish or even Mandarin no matter what ethnicity by the end of it. (They really should do this more, the kids will appreciate it in the future)
I know a woman who took spanish is high school and I think she said she did some in college, and she said it did nothing for real world and business talking. 99% of her employees are Spanish speakers, so she does good but she says that is because she has had to learn from then. The Spanish speakers are older so they really struggle with English, especially since they aren't really around English that much.
I wouldn’t mind as long as they aren’t forced. At my schools we were able to begin learning languages in 6th grade as an elective. I’m in Highschool now and have no interest in learning new languages. I don’t ever wanna travel I just wanna live out in the country I don’t need to know new languages 😂
@@kennedy3636 Sad. If I had the chance to I'd definitely learn new languages. I remember being a lazy kid too though, so your point makes 'sense'.
This man speaks many languages but he says random things sometimes xD
Exactly. He memorises things to say, but he's not fluent
@@k.c7655 it's still not an easy thing to do
I chuckled when he said he likes to walk and buy russian salad
Fact, that's not fluent at all. Memorizing some phrases isn't being fluent. I'm fluent in 3 languages and in those 3, I understand everything, can have fully conversations, write and read.
I appreciate that he can admit that he’s not fluent in languages. And even when he can have conversations it’s not like he can pass as a native speaker which takes even more time to learn. He’s still a very talented person to want to learn and successfully speak at the level he wants to get to.
Loved this video. Always was fond of learning languages however i can. By picking them up listening and exposing myself to them. It’s always nice to be able to talk to people in their native tongue.
"Speak their language" = "I can say like, three sentences about speaking that language in that language"
The most impressive thing about this video to me is the fact that you are just wearing a freaking t-shirt while it's obviously freezing cold outside.
yeah it looks cold
Extraterrestrial
Its probably only 10 degrees Celsius not that cold
There’s not even snow. The weather is perfectly t-shirt-worthy 😆
I was wishing the whole time that someone would use sign language, that would've been amazing !
haha, I was just thinking that since I sign!
@@kd1330 how long did it take to learn ?
@@Vikkyyee idk about other person but for me 3 months to just know like the basics, I'd say the vocabulary of a 4 yr old. Although I had the upper hand bc i learnt it in school
The problem with sign language is that it's not universal, by that I mean, you have American Sign Language, and I've seen others use a Spanish version, and a French (European?) version.
@@user-yb3jp1sl9v I don't think it matters where you learn it.
I am Norwegian and I genuinely thought you spoke really well. Please make more content. Ha en god dag! 🇳🇴🇳🇴🇳🇴
I've never heard your danish up until now but it's very understandable, which is impressive considering our weird accents. Nice going!
This is amazing. It’s so neat to connect with people of different cultures on the linguistic level. I hope I can learn this many languages in my life!!!!
But what a reason
@@strongpowerman7544 ? What
@@AM-su6je reason of learning so much languages and waste time on it
@@strongpowerman7544 that’s not a waste of time lol, you’re able to talk to people of other cultures and be able to carry a conversation and not just talk with gestures, if anything everyone should do that if capable. It’s only a waste of time if you make it a waste of time, being bilingual is also great in a work setting
@@AM-su6je u anyway able to talk with people if u know english. Eng is just universal
The finnish person said the ”do you speak finnish” in a hard dialect for a person that does not speak finnish to understand and this guy understood. Amazing.
I'm a little confused, he said "Puhutko Suomea?" It's not even colloquial Finnish it's standard written Finnish. Undoubtedly the easiest for a non-native speaker to understand and definitely not a hard dialect.
Yeah, no dialect there, I’m confused too
He did not even speak in a dialect
This guy not even speaking facts and getting upvotes.
@@Fuzzycat16 "Thanks for the info"-votes. But apparently not deserved :)
Don't be haters saying he's just saying simple phrases! That's a lot of languages to remember and it's very impressive and appreciated in my opinion! His Spanish was good ✨❤️
It's my first time seeing Bulgarians on your chanel! So nice:)
I've never met a single person outside of Ireland that even knows Irish is a language, maybe one day I'll get a free bubble tea 😂
I thought that was common knowledge?? I’d never heard it though until I met an Irish person that spoke it
Idk I thought that everyone knows that hahaha
Wtf hahaha had to look that up, I thought you were joking. Ive only heard of gaelic
I actually do know it's a language! I watch a lot of Smithsonian Channel and History stuff. 😎👍
@@-Oddish- most Irish people speak English cause Britain took over them. So galick is taught but alot of people forget it cause it's not really used in Ireland.
Every video should be a new food. Next, pizza!!!
man, I really like your videos, what a nice surprise to see you here!
@@lucas-qr1br Thank you.
Guitaro 😳👋🏽
I know it’s a small thing but it’s nice to see him asking people if he can use their input on his channel - I’m sure it happens off screen for other content creators but I don’t often see them asking permission and keeping it in the video, it’s just a nice thing of respect. Keep it up, man!
@2:04 I am German and speak Cantonese.. I have no idea what language you are trying to speak but it is not Cantonese there lol. I mean I can hear what you are TRYING to say but yeah. That is F for the language but A+ for attempt!! That being said it is honestly good enough since NO ONE would expect you to speak or even attempt to speak Cantonese. Keep it up mate
Learning multiple languages is really an awesome way to connect with people, also people seem so impressed when you speak their language 😊
Uhh.. yeah no. That much work just to make small talk with strangers on the street is definitely not worth it. Maybe if youre a YTer tho idk
As a Filipino that lives in a country that has more than 100 languages, I'm busting out my Tausug and Bisaya
Languages?? Or dialects? I didn’t know that wow.
@@vminhope3040 there's 8 formal languages and more than a 100 dialects
@@vminhope3040 they’re languages and within those languages there are dialects
@@vminhope3040 In school, they are labeled as "just dialects", but when people talk, they really don't understand each other. Making them separate languages, not just dialects.
Ok it seems the replies aren’t helping but there are a lot of languages in the Philippines and those languages have dialects from different groups of people it’s crazy how my dads side speaks bisaya but there are words that my mothers side (Which I communicate with mostly) dialect just makes me wonder why is it so different? Note that my mom was born almost at the other side of the island and my dad at the opposite side, mom grew up with that city bisaya gal while dad was the one in the secluded mountains with small neighbours (those neighbours are my relatives) dad is also part of my family clan and mom was the rich relatives type, tbh tho Even if it’s a dialect I can still understand it. Also I grew up speaking English for 3 years until I started picking up bisaya since it’s literally my native language, shout out to the bisaya gals
I love the enthusiasm for languages!! I think food and sharing languages are two things that can bring complete strangers together, it's such a beautiful connection
see i like this because you're not smug about it; you are genuinely connecting with people and show a genuine interest for language and people. i feel some polyglot youtube channels are trying to flex or show off somehow. i like how you give them bubble tea if you feel that you don't speak it well enough!
It seems like you could master Norwegian quite easily because of your Danish, it seems you lose a few times each time you do this because of Swedish and Norwegian. But your ability is just incredible, I love these videos.
I was wondering about Swedish, thanks for saying this!
As a norwegian person with swedish relatives i can agree
He basically speaks Norwegian already. The biggest challenge is probably picking up on all the Norwegian dialects
@@apeflight5553 yeah fr norwegian dialects are crazy. When i moved from oslo to the west coast i literally couldn’t understand people at first, and I’m 100% native norwegian 😭
@@Katalystic Hehe, for me the difference isn’t that big. However, I am from the west so perhaps I am just used to our dialects being harder. However, Sogn og litt nordover på Vestlandet, det er døden for meg. Eg klarer ikke å høre på de fra nord, de dreper ørene mine.

The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal: BEEP. A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound: DING. Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start

As a native Russian speaker, most of the time when foreigners try speaking Russian their accent sounds so cute to me. His Russian reminded me more of Ukrainian at times bc of his pronunciation haha but overall it was good enough.

@@user-db3ev9tz7k was it hard to understand or was his accent just too thick(?)

👏👏👏 it’s a very rare skill to speak so many languages from different continents. I wish you the best
Deserve some millions of subscribes man❤️
8:30 aww i was really looking forward to hearing him speak Bulgarian. could you please ask them all next time to speak a bit of their language for us to hear, thank you :)
I love it when I see Bulgarians in videos but felt really disappointed when he didn’t want to speak it.Such a shame to not represent but whatever
I wanted to hear him speak some Slavic language like Croatian or Serbian
yeah, i was thinking the same. i think some prople from this video do not actually speak the languages, but only wanted to test him and get a bubble tea (he spoke more than the people who said they knew the language)
Shoot, I missed the bubble tea. I am Bulgarian lol
! This video was amazing!! Your a very talented and intelligent man to be able to speak all those languages.
он хорошо выражает мысли на русском, но даже с такой большой языковой базой у него очень сильный акцент :D
И в этом нет ничего страшного))
Ну и что? Главное, что все друг друга поняли
This guy is so honest like even when he can speak a bit of that language he admits that it's not good enough. Appreciate your honesty and moreover your love for learning new languages
If Finnish earned him a bubble tea, then Estonian would have scored as well :)
Guessing the same for Latvian :)
🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪🇪 I was thinking the same

I have never been so genuinely impressed before. Not jealous, but impressed. My jaw dropped, in awe, smiling ear to ear. Why did I think I was in heaven hearing this man speak each language?

I love how wholesome of a way this is to deal with the enthisic background of people. Its postitve and inclusive.
Finally Latvian. Not surprised that you don't know it and couldn't even recognize. Not the most popular language to learn as a foreign language.
mine is 100 times less popular LMAO
@@lawtraf8008 Which one is that?
Yeah I was surprised to see the Latvian guy, but even more surprised he didn't recognize it or even guess Lithuanian, Russian or Ukrainian since it is more a Slavic language. To me, Latvian is always recognisable since all the words end with an "s" (or it just sounds like it). The only word I know is saldejums and that ends with an "s" :).
@@0Tikrimoos0 "Čau, mani sauc Miķelis. Man patīk skriet, trenēties." All words do not end with s. There are dialects in Latvian. Latgalian could sound like slavic, but west Latvian do not sound like slavic for sure. It sounds more Finnic. Because Latvian is very influenced by Livonian language.
@@arita2002 Huh, to me it has always sounded like an Estonian tries to speak Russian but puts a lot of "s" sounds in between or something. Thank you for sharing the knowledge though, I always have thought where the Livonian language has gone and how much has it affected your language, since it was a big part of the country a long time ago.
".... it means like peace or something yeah? It means do you want eggs." had me absolutely rolling my guy. You are amazing!!!!!
dude u fr left me flabbergasted when u speaks cantonese ,its actually extremely hard especially for europian
it's so nice to see random strangers talking to each other again :) so touchinggg. thank you for this!

@@FlyingMozzarella yes, thought the same
Trying to learn Hindi now and it's sooo hard since I have to learn brand new letters at the same time. The roman writing of the words is not consistent in apps and texting which makes it tricky. बिल्ली for instance, can be written billy, billie, billi or billee...

so cringe
You are an inspiration for me surely.
Very impressed with you speaking IsiXhosa 👏🏾❤️ you’re definitely getting there with it. 🇿🇦
Language has a unifying power, and can bring us together as a peoples.
USA: "Press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish."
While technically not spoken, I would try my hand with ASL. Spanish and Japanese seem to be very common learns so I wouldn't have much of a shot with those, but I feel like leaning a local sign language is a very useful skill and yet I never see it come up.
"try your hand"? Haha nice one
Imagine sb trying out Esperanto. That would also be interesting to see.
We met him once and tried the dutch sign language.. But he couldn't 'speak' it..
Since I’ve been learning Japanese a bit, I can understand when he is speaking Japanese since it was quite basic. I’m really impressed that you can speak so many!

The Norwegian guy made it extra difficult for you, he was speaking a dialect 😄. Thanks for the video, it was a fun watch!
Has anyone ever tried any fictional languages with you in one of these challenges? And more importantly can you speak any? I'm thinking of Tolkein's Elvish, or Klingon, for example. With the release of Metroid Dread there's also an incomplete but partially translatable and speak-able language for the Chozo species that I've been enjoying learning snippets of.
I wondered. Could I go and recite some typescript code and call it a programming language?
hmm im thinking someone will do this comments ahaha, and might be fun if some guys just splashing binary numbers as the way communicate
@@bogdandamaschin9381 how are you going to speak? Jajaja
hmm ... doubt he knows mando'a ^^
I used to be able to speak a bit of Valyrian, but I wouldn't be able to use it conversationally anymore. Would have been interesting to try though
I am so amazed of the girl Lena!!!!! I wheezed really loud when I heard her speaking kazakh. As kazakh, I feel really proud and enjoyable, Алға Қазақстан және Қазақ тілім!!🇰🇿🇰🇿🇰🇿
Seeing my Cantonese fellows walk up to him and get that bubble tea made me proud of Canto gang. Even though my canto speaking is horrid, my parents and relatives still all (natively) speak Canto so I can at least (mostly) understand it conversationally, and his canto accent was definitely rough.
5:20 lolll these 2 are trying to squeez every last drop out of the guy 😂 every last drop of bubble tea
@ 5:37 my mans didnt realize what he said to a gay couple lmfao mans on the left looked so pissed for a split second HA!!!
I like how he speaks the language but admits he doesn't speak it well. I appreciate the honesty
Honestly this guy is amazing,
You're doing great, Wouter, keep it up!
I want to see someone here try a signed language, see if he could get it.
that’s the only other language i know besides english! i’m not even in the community.
You should try learning Thai! And other SEA languages as well :D Love the video very cool!
This is WILD to me. Mad respect 🧠✨
Me: *thinks knowing 6 languages is a flex
This guy: *exists
I learned all the turkic languages cause I'm turkish so I can speak like 9
By being Scandinavian you know like 3 languages by default. Probably 4 or 5 if you are Finnish or Sami.And most know English. So potentially 6 languages just from exposure
Depending on the extent to which you’re able to express yourself on top of how dissimilar each language is from your own naive Lang, then yes, it’s very impressive and worthy of flexing.
You said "я по понедельникам изучаю русский язык" but subtitles says "on Thursdays". Понедельник is Monday :) Thursday is четверг
IsiXhosa is such an interesting language, I learned quite a bit during my time there, love it, and so do the Xhosa people who hear you speak it!

I am very happy to see person that speaks kazakh in that video! and even better that this man recognised it❤
Why are you wearing a T-shirt while everybody else is wearing warm clothes? 😂
Because he's cool.
