+Ha Vuong I know but if you use that vocabulary when speaking your native language and you know you can incorporate the same to your english, you use that or that is what I would do ( and I use those words too xD )
that's true, because when you study another language, you study it right, from the book or tutors. you will learn it with the correct grammar usage and you will be even more curious with terms that you do not understand that you will look them up in the dictionary or online whenever you encounter one, unlike when it's your native language, you just care about how you response and use the language the way everybody uses it

The reason is that, VERY OFTEN, english formal words have latin roots, and this makes it easier for a romance language speaker to understand and use them. English borrowed a lot of words from latin and romance languages (above all french), and these words are usually part of the formal register, while they are much more informal in the romance languages. If I say "presumptuous" in English, I'm using a word that doesn't belong to english informal register, while the italian corresponding word ("presuntuoso") is VERY common (no italian speaker would not understand it). The same goes with "didactic", a very formal word: the italian corresponding word is 'didattico', which is not so formal. When she says "it is contradictory and paradoxal", it sounds very formal in english, while the italian "è contraddittorio e paradossale" is a quite medium register. If a latin-language speaker who doesn't know a word of english reads "presumptuous", they can easily understand what it means (because of the latin origin of the word), while the meaning of 'cocky' (the informal corresponding word of 'presumptuous') will be inaccessible to them. This leads to a sort of paradox: when a latin-language speaker reads an english scientific article, or listens to a very formal speech in english, they are likely to understand more than an illiterate mother tongue (english) speaker.
"Diaphanous is a character on Sesame Street" "Didactic is a fruit that comes from Didactic tree" "Juxtaposition is Colombian for just a position" "Conundrum is a drum used in Latin music" OH MY GOD. I lost it hahaha
Diaphanous is actually a greek word. We pronounce it exactly the same in greek, διάφανη, and it means transparent. Didactic is also greek, we pronounce it διδακτικό, and it characterizes sth that is intended to teach. It comes from the word διδάσκω which means to teach. In general English have many greek origins in their vocabulary as many other European languages like italian, spanish and french. And I know Shakira is also a greek culture fan if anybody checks her studies. She loves history and greek philosophy. Greetings from Athens.
CASI, Ninguna respuesta en español. Acá vamos. Shakira habla al menos 5 idiomas diferentes. No es raro que haya tomado clases y haya aprendido un inglés nivel experto, por eso pronuncia palabras que los americanos transforman en frases más cortas. Shakira es lo más! La amo!
Ou simplesmente porque o vocabulário dos estadunidenses médios é demasiadamente limitado, desse modo, qualquer pessoa que utilize algumas palavras a mais para se expressar já chamaria a atenção por isso. Que tristeza!
She knows like 5 languages and she has also learned classical english. Also, most of those words have a pretty similar counterpart in some latin-based languages wich might be why they come more easily to her. She's a joy💕
What do you mean by "classic English"? I would say that these Latin words are not really spoken in English culture or are common words, not even uncommon words, I've never heard of any of them.
I'm not a spanish speaker, but I speak portuguese as my first language and I can say that those words might seem fancy but they're quite common in latin languages. Me myself know most of those (the one I dont know is diaphanous, or whatever). So I see where her vocabulary is coming from. Words in portuguese: timbre, justaposição, eclético, facetas, contraditório, paradoxal, didático...
Modern greek is too close to ancient greek. Especially the Koine greek dialect (the lingua franca of East Mediterranean from 3rd century BC till 3rd century AD and the language of the New Testament) is completely understandable by modern greek speakers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koine_Greek - didactic from greek didaktikos (derives from verb "didasko") In both ancient and modern greek: didasko (verb) = to teach didache (noun) = teaching, instruction didaktikos (adjective) = teaching In ancient greek: didaskalos (noun) = teacher In modern greek: daskalos (noun) = teacher - eclectic from greek eklektikos (derives from preposition "ek" + verb "lego") In both ancient and modern greek: lego (verb) = to say (leo as well in modern greek) eklego (verb) = to choose/to elect ekloge (noun) = choice/election eklektikos (adjective) = selective In ancient greek: eklogeus (noun) = voter In modern greek: eklogeas (noun) = voter - diaphanous from greek diaphanes (derives from preposition "dia" + verb "phaino") In both ancient and modern greek: phaino (verb) = to bring to light phainomai (verb in middle/passive voice) = to appear diaphanes (adjective) = transparent adiaphanes (adjective) = opaque phantasma (noun) = sth/sb that appears / ghost / phantom phantasia = imagination phantastikos = fantastic In ancient greek: phainomenon (neutral present participle of phainomai) = phenomenon In modern greek: phainomeno (noun and neutral present participle of phainomai) = phenomenon
She only use english words closed to Spanish common ones: Diáfano, Yuxtaposición. Sometimes learning a language you need to translate a word and choose one of some posibilities resulting the less common but that word is permanent in your mind
English is not even her first language and she is SOOOOOO AMAZING in English. Even Usher and the other judges who are fluent in English does not know the meaning of these words
My Zimbabwean English teacher would always tell us that usually Latin based words make you sound smarter in English, even though they are the easiest to learn if you’re a Spanish speaker like Shak is
I love these judges! they're my favorite! The Voice always seems like fun and relaxed competition when they're around. It's just like everyone is having fun! anyway, I can't believe they don't know those words! (even word like "conundrum" which I thought is a common word since I've seen it everywhere lol) still love them though :))
Diaphanous and didactic are both greek words:"διαφανής" (pronounced "diafanis") is an adjective and means transparent in greek and "διδακτικός" (pronounced "didaktikos") means instructive, able to teach.
She wrote poetry since she was 4, learnt Arabic from her parents, plus the fact that she's Colombian=Spanish... and to be honest Lebanese people in general are well cultured, linguistically in specific, that's to be said from a Syrian neighbour.
Shakira just made all modern americans realize that English language derives almost 70% of its vocabularies either from Greek or Latin and Shakira, being an excellent romance language speaker (she speaks spanish, portuguese, and french), has a close connection to Latin language from where she derived all those vocabularies. And modern people will say latin is an archaic and dead language? Well, Shakira made americans realize that knowing excellent english is knowing Latin.
Thats a fact, but its also a fact, that the words, she uses, are absolutely uncommen and nearly "dead", in the spoken language. You can find in every language 100000+ words, but maybe the half are never spoken and only are using in some specific subject area, so most people dont even know, that they exist. And yes, english need a reform, that the dominance of Romansh breaks, so that it finally becomes an independent Indo-European language again
This is because Spanish is such an extremely rich language which has a different word for every meaning that any native Spanish speaking would tend to seek for THE word that suits the best for the actual meaning, rather than being englishly-rational. Best example: Me.
@@delos4098 in Spanish there are the same words almost identical too. Yuxtaposición, ecléctico, diáfano, didáctico, etc. and are used in colloquial language.

A lot of this words have a latin root, and if you talk Spanish, you will find them quite normal and easy to understand.
timbre = timbre, juxtaposition = yuxtaposición, eclectic = ecléctico, facets = faceta, paradoxal = paradójico, diaphonous = diáfono.... id say that she simply has a rich spanish vocab and knows how those words are said in english. it also happens a lot that words that sound fancy in english are not necessarily fancy in spanish and when you translate them literally it sounds very elaborate. english usually takes latin words to create technical/fancy words. eg In spain we say vomitar which is not fancy at all, but in english vomit sounds fancy.
