- Many of us know that speaking various languages is essential for the future professional world. But what if there are no opportunities provided for learning? Taisiia Tvertina speaks 7 languages, but back in high school, she wasn’t even good at her native language - Ukrainian. Find out how she managed to motivate herself to learn all of those languages and why is it so important to speak multiple languages.

The way she said "capoeira" and "jiu jitsu" was sooooooo brazilian-like. I'm impressed!
ikrrrr
Thought the same bro, I was like: what? You're not an ukranian you're a Brazilian pretending to be one
Yeah. Sounded like a native Brazilian speaker
BRUH
I'm Brazilian and when she said "capoeira" and "jiu jitsu" wow... It was amazing. She spoke perfectly, like a native brazilian...
I can speak British, American, and Australian and irish.
Good👍 not Indian too?
Wow know all the dialects?
@Chirping Trees sin an cheist a bhí agam chomh maith
Thanks for the chuckle!
Nice, I’m a bit ahead though as I’m fluent in Canadian as well
" The magic happens outside of your comfort zone, and it's not just about learning languages "
❤❤👍👍
When I had first seen this, I was a bilingual. I'm a trilingual now. I'll come back when I'm a polyglot! (1 more language. I'm still learning)
how many languages you need to know to be a polyglot?
@@nathanackie8109 I think it's 7 or 4
Good luck, I believe in you. I hope I can be a polygot
@@nathanackie8109 I’m guessing 3 languages. After bilingual & trilingual, it makes sense to just say polyglot.
Besides English, what are the 2 languages you know & the one you’re trying to become fluent in?
@@Dhi_Bee it's 5+, for is just multilingual
Silence is my favorite language!
There's a line in Billie Eilish's song, "silence is my favorite song."
Python is my favorite

(Age 15)I can speak English and Dutch quite fluently, now working hard on my french and german. Becoming a polyglot is a dream of mine and I've just begun to grab the bull by the horns and fully engage. Passivity will not get you far. In the future, I'd love to learn Spanish, Portuguese, Russian and possibly Polish or Finnish too. Time to crack on with French and German!
Damn dude! That's impressive 😱 You're aiming very high 😉 Good luck with Polish. I know it's not easy (it's my native language), but fingers crossed. I'm aiming at being proficient in English. Greets from Poland 😉
@@mariuszrachwalski4339 Thanks mate! Only things I can say in polish is I eat an apple and I am a man thanks to Duolingo 😂
Oh wow. I just started learning english. Your journey is inspiring. Good luck to you
Learn turkish its like a gateway to central asian languages and mongolian and its also a tier 2 language which has a completely different structure than latinized languages
moi aussi im learning my french about e months in now u got any advice btw ?
I love the way you speak! You really manage to put feelings into your speech and transmit them to.
when she says "capoeira" i really thought that was a brazilian speaking WOW
I'm having fun learning Japanese and Korean at the same time, I'm 14 and this is just more fun then french class in the uk.
I'm learning Japanese too. I'm 16, my native language is Russian.
Wait I'm a filipino bilingual and I'm learning Korean and Japanese at the same time too!

@@aeolian951 Hey, I'm Eric. I am currently learning the Russian language, and would love to connect with you.
@@ericmakuochukwuudeh7385 I don't mind.
y'all please continue studying it. it's good you're learning at a young age. you'll become proficient once you reach college and you'll have so many opportunities opening up.
I'm already fluent in 3 languages, can understand a 4th and am learning a 5th and I'm just 17. I wish to live for more than a hundred years and learn atleast 50 languages
I sincerely hope you do, good luck friend.
wow, you are so talent. I am proud of you
@@deutschmitpurple2918 Danke. I've started learning German as well :)
@@Powerhouse08 I am so happy to hear that. Good luck in this process 😊😊😊
Você falou português brasileiro tão perfeitinho! Tomei um susto, mas abri um sorriso na hora!!!!
Foi incrível, nem esperava também. Já virei fã!!!
I can speak Assamese (mother tongue), English, Hindi, Bengali. I think 4-5 languages are pretty common for an Indian.
Same for Nepali people. Nepali, Hindi and English. Some even speak 4 (newari)
Namaste bhai
@@harshmittal4548 Namaste !
Not for north east indians.
@@rsacha6887 why not? Are you from North East?
I speak English(L1), Spanish(C1ish), Irish(B2), Scottish Gaelic(B1) some French(A2) and routinely dabble in a few others like Welsh and Russian and totally relate to this I’m dyslexic and was told I shouldn’t/ couldn’t learn a second language as a kid… I think I proved them wrong lol
Keep it up
Well done to you and thank you for the inspiration.
I can speak german, english, french and spanish. Furthermore i also would like to learn russian, japanese, mandarin, korean, arabic and hebrew.
German is my mother tongue. I learned the other languages at school. On University, I can learn russian now.
Hi, I'm a native Hebrew speaker and I'm studying French. I would help you learn Hebrew in exchange for help with French.
Hey dude, I'm trying to learn German and I'd love if we can communicate with each other so that I can improve my German. It'll be really helpful.
Hey, my second language is russian, I can help you))) by the way we can practice Arabia c together
Maybe it could be easier for you due to cases in Russian (2 more than German)
@Roses シ Where r u from? Btw Urdu is my mother tongue..
I can relate to her, especially about Ukrainian schools. I'm fifteen and currently I'm in a distant school and I'm extremely happy with my decision. I actually realized that I'm pretty good at mathematics, languages and art, when back at school I was bullied for not being "cool" enough. Just study whatever makes you happy and enjoy life. And thanks for the video, it's extremely wholesome💓
Keep away from the "cool" girls-- life is happier that way, I'm sure... from a teacher's perspective.
I never completed my high school, because my father get mantly ill, so i left my school for feed my family, but i never stop learning because i love to learn, now i know english Spanish Tagalog and russian, just believe yourself
Nice!!
One of the best I ever watched. Thank you.
Yes she was very spontaneous . Greetings from Filadelfia
I can speak English , Spanish and Farsi fluently. I love learning languages. it really feels different and you know the feeling when you're a polyglot.. in ten years i will speak 8 languages thats my goal.
Very inspiring. Thank you, ❤️
I speak portuguese, english and spanish fluently. Now I'm learning french and in the future I would like to learn russian, italian, bulgarian, irish, hebrew, arabic and germany.
Good luck!
@@StagestopAnimation Thank you!

Im tryin to learn German and Japanese and latin are next and my native tongue is English nice to see someone with similar goals
Thank you for sharing this informative video. I am proud of her. I hope ı can be a polygot like her
I’m 13 and i’m from australia and my native language is English. because my family is italian and croatian, i started learning croatian a year ago and recently starting improving my spanish (which i’m learning at school but they teach it horribly). next year i am starting italian lessons and now i know a little bit and i’d love to learn more languages like Romanian and French 😁😁
Sretnoo :D
I can relate!! I live in germany. My parents are from Croatia and Macedonia (but the Albanian speaking part). In school I had French and Latin and even one year Chinese (and ofc English but honestly I learned English through using the internet). Right now I’m trying to learn Croatian and Spanish (and in the future hopefully albanian). I’d love to know how much progress you’ve made. Myb we can stay in touch and keep motivating each other since your the first person I know of that is also trying to learn Croatian (I’m a girl and not some 50yo creep)
TEDX Talks always has nice topics, I got no no no knowledge or answer or from the talks
True 👍👍
OMG!!!! The way she pronounces ''capoeira'' and ''jiu jitsu'' is AMAZING!!!! PERFECT !!!! 😱😱🤩🤩
I'm a polyglot :) i can speak english, french, arabic, tigrinya and spanish
Sooo cooool 😍what‘s your personal Tipp? ✨
Decime como haces
C'est trop cool, j'aimerais pouvoir les maîtriser un jour
No you can't.
I'm currently learning English as a second language. I'd like to learn Russian after I become fluent in English.
wonderful
Great talk. To me those who discourage students are not teachers.
I'm a teacher too and a life long student.
When similar thing happened to my son in high school, I told him don't worry the teacher failed not you.
I ended up being right about it too.
I'm on my way to learning French. Wish me luck! I'll be back here when I'm already on a conversational level.
Good luck mate
Fingers crossed 🤞 💜
French is not too hard to be fair. You should be able to do it. 👍
@@abdullahabdilaahi3872 but i have adhd and i can barely focus enough 😩
@@_kuraaiii Don't be discouraged; I have trouble focusing too, and are trying to learn German and Swedish. I find small chunks of 15 minutes (sometimes more, sometimes less) per day helps. I don't get down if I miss a day, as long as I am moving forward it's okay. I hope this helps, I wish you all the very best in the language learning journey. x
We would like to see her while she is talking languages she knows. The ted talk would be more enjoyable in that way.
She is looking amazing 👏 I mean she is so fit
Great
wow she's soo cool
What do you mean? Learning languages is fun!!!!!!
I'm fluent in Albanian and Greek language as well. My English is in C1 level. Now I'm going for Italian and Spanish.
Hi
I'm a polyglot, I can speak 4 languages, English, Vietnamese, French, and Japanese
i'm 14 and i can speak fluently italian, russian and english. i know spanish quite well, now learning french and korean.
I CAN SPEAK ENGLISH , SPAINISH , RUSSIAN , ARABIC , HINDI , ITALIAN , FRENCH , POTUGUESE , TURKISH AND A BIT JAPANESE ALSO .
AM BEING SERIOUS .
MY DAD IS HALF ARAB AND HALF RUSSIAN AND MY MOM IS HALF AMERICAN AND HALF LATINO .
AND AM 14
AND I LEARNED HALF OF THE LANGUAGES FROM WATCHING SERIES , ANIME'S AND MOVIES
Cool do you have any tv shows you would recommend? (For french)
@@default6207 جيد Good you have to learn Dutch
sì come no, è impossibile che a 14 anni tu parli 10 LINGUE
how fluent are you
@@default6207 you should watch “lupin”
your present is very cool tvertina😍😍😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗🤗
I can speak English, Hindi and my mother tongue, Garo. I also know little bit of Assamese & Nagamese. At present, I am learning Spanish and Russian language.
Hii, I can speak hindi and I want to learn English. Could you please help me to learn?
I speak Tajik, Uzbek and English and some Persian. Now I am working on my Korean. Then after cracking it, I am gonna move on to Arabic, Turkish, and my Persian. If i am lucky enough again, Italian and Spanish will be another challenge for me
Lovely 💛
She is right.everyone has the talent and learnt power if a person use it for the right so they can get anything in their life. Apart from this we can take example from Edison his teacher said he is not intellegent but he prove it in the future as his mother appreciated him . Thanks 👍
No, not everyone can do anything. People shouldn't be given false hope. There are people with serious learning disabilities who are unable to learn even one language after studying it 10 years..
I can speak currently 3 arabic english german and I'm learning quiet slowly Spanish
Hope to learn also russian
i can speak portuguese, english and i am learning mandarim chinese
She's right. Everyone can learn and perform, and if they use these things for the good of others, they can do anything in life. Aside from this, Edison is a good example. His mother liked him despite his teacher's assertion that he was unintelligent.
Hy salam kenal polyglot seluruh dunia, i'm from Indonesian
Always staying outside of my comfort zone 💪💪
Italian, English and Spanish. ✌🏻 But I would like to learn Korean and French
I am learning Spanish and French
If u wanna be polighlot u must know 5 language
I know for now
1.Azerbaijan
2.Turkish
3.English (b1-2 im self-studer)
İ wanna leaen this :
4.Russian
5.French
6.Spanish
7.Korean
Azerbaijani = Turkish
You can speak Turkish because you speak Azerbaijan language(sure,these two languages have different vocabulary but they are similiar languages). In the other hand, it's hard a foreign to learn Turkish or Azerbaijan language. (Biz Türk diliyle büyüdüğümüz için bize kolay geliyor aslında zor bir dili konuşuyoruz)

Beautiful woman
This is epic
One of life's intriguing mysteries is how very young children pick up a language....watching my 2.5 yr old grandson soaking up NZ English like a sponge,,,but not his father's Cantonese....pretty soon his linguistic dam will burst open.... Just How?? do these little people make the connections to turn vocab into something more or less correct in grammar etc.
I was very capable with Latin and French at high school,,, and decided at age 16 to have the fun challenge of teaching myself German and Portuguese.... It later went on to a degree in Russian at Otago Uni... and enough working knowledge to communicate in Dutch and read Spanish and Italian to a degree and some Mandarin...... my brain thinks of languages like Lego puzzles...you know basic links and structures and just switch components round to get the result you want. Pity that such a structured approach did not seem to work with Calculus.......

@@thebestmusicofthworld8249 polyglot means who speaks many languages with his native Language
Her accent not and accent. We have to know who’s accent we are speaking about. Also most English speakers don’t put and in the beginning of a sentence but you can if you want. Lastly the beginning of each sentence should have an uppercased letter.
Watching this only knowing english. I shall learn spanish
What is the definition of polyglot
I speak English (natively) & Spanish (nearly fluent). But I’m studying (Brazilian) Portuguese, Indonesian/Malay, & Haitian Creole. I want to become at least a B2 level in conversational Portuguese & Indonesian/Malay, but I like studying languages nonetheless.
I can speak tagalog and bisaya
To become a polyglot does speaking enough? Or you have to master writing and reading too?
You need to be fluent in every aspect. Writing, reading, listening and speaking
Hii
My first foreign language was English, second one is Ukrainian after Ukrainian, third one will be Swedish.
