Im from Namibia and Zimbabwe so its great to see this!
Great seeing my country 🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
Namibia is the second least populated country in the world with large various landscapes ( very different changes per region e.g southern we have mainly desert & dunes, northern with Middle East forest agricultural land, west we have Atlantic Ocean with dunes)
~ We have one of the oldest desert in the world ( The Namib Desert
~The only country in the world were the desert meets the Ocean
~ We have one of the oldest tribes in the world ( the Himba people & San)
~ We have various languages English and Afrikaans being the Official ones, with about 11 ethnic groups
~ Dry & hot country
~Generally peaceful, one with great roads in Africa with warm and friendly people.
In short that’s our Motherland, you’re welcome to visit, there’s so much to explore ❤️❤️🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
I should come visit Namibia one day😁
@@helena.oweaver you’re welcome to come ❤️❤️
Accurate but Afrikaans is not one of the official languages, our country is not the only country where the desert meets the sea. . .
@@fortunehernandez9513Afrikaans is bro, it’s taught in almost every school and spoken everywhere in Namibia
Namibia is not the 2nd least populated country in the world. It has a small population but amongst the top 10. Also Afrikaans is the 2nd official languages.
I've never seen Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 in vidios like this, I was soo excited
🎉❤😊
I'd love to see more ...💙

I am from Zimbabwe and definitely Shona and Swahili are related just as English is to other Germanic langugages are related. If i listen closely to a Swahili speaker i can pick up a few words that may give me an idea of what they are talking about.
Bantu languages have a touch of each other
impressed by a Namibian showing up in the channel so proud
Because she's white u mean?
@@mostafaelraies344 she's not white she's albino (oshiwambo tribe)
@@mostafaelraies344 She's not white. She just has albinism
you she said we kinda have a coastline right
@@mostafaelraies344 she's not white. She's a Vamboo... she speaks the same language I do (we're black/bantu speakers)

I'm Zimbabwean and l speak Ndebele and l'm also South African and l also speak Zulu, l have a lot of family members that speak Shona from my dads side and l'm so happy to see someone who is Zimbabwean 🎀❤
❤❤❤
Your ethnicity and mine are the same from both maternal and paternal 🥳❤️❤️❤️

Andrea is really smart , even though the language wasn't Swahili , she got really quickly about the country has no cost to sea and that sounds like Swahili , her and Draga are really a good team
Africa is clearly the most diverse and complex continent. In terms of culture, skin complexion, languages.
For example, Nigeria has more than 450 languages and dialects... That's 🤯
Over 500 languages
Cameroun next to Nigeria, we gat more than 250 languages 😂
Africa has so many languages around 2000 in total. Around a quater of that is in Nigeria. Some other notable countries, Sudan - 144, Ethiopia - 86, Tanzania - 126, Congo DR - 242, Chad - 146, Mali - 80, Ghana - 85 etc.
Same in europe right??
Heavy on the skin color too right??
@@WhitesAreCringe and Asia
Love to see my country being represented, this video was fun to watch 🥰 🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
They couldn't choose a better person
Wow
Agreeed🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
I'm a Shona speaker from Zimbabwe but some of the words from the Namibian girl sounded familiar like when she was going 1st, 2nd third. I feel like I could learn that language very fast.
Yea bantu languages are similar!!
We are bantu people people
I love videos like this. The school system has really failed to teach us anything about Africa
Africa is very beautiful and impressive and it is great to have videos of this kind, I am from Egypt if you like to learn more about our culture and history and all these things❤
If my teachers showed videos of Africans teaching about their countries in their native languages, I wouldn't have understood much, as well.
Nothing stopping you from it
"the school system"? You must be American.
LOVE to see a fellow Namibian on one these. Better yet, Love to see that they're a 'Vambo.🔥🔥
Lol, I am from Namibia , and from the moment she started speaking Oshiwambo, I know no way they can get it. I don't think even our neighbour countries will understand that. 🤣.
I am Zambian, so your neighbour and I was truly lost🤣🤣
I am from Kenya, I knew she's from the south because some words are similar to swahili
Jina, tatu ..
just sound but spelling is totally different.🤣
,@@estherthea8180
You are very right. I had no idea
Im South African and you were right… I thought she was speaking maybe Tswana or Swahili
Doesn't the Brazilian girl know that they speak Portuguese in Mozambique?
I know. I'm brazilian and love Julia and her bubbly mood but she's not the brightest bulb 😅 Ana would nail this game 🇧🇷💪
@@wisleypereira7200 Ana is also a polyglot.
I'm from spain and we now the ex colonies of Portugal because we are very connected. I was like waw...The official language of Mozambique is portuguese...
Draga is the best.
At least she didnt think that there are native African languages bases on European languages like the American
I can't believe I'm seeing Naapopye here. shocked, but in a good way. Nice too see you on here girl. We hardly hear our language outside of our country's youtubers, let alone hearing a family member.
I'm Namibian but yoh. All these comments about Africa, some of native languages all over Africa having European origin, and so much more, makes me want to gorge out my eyeballs. Please educate yourselves man.😭
true hahahaha
Ethiopia wasnt colonized by any European country. we have our own languages, number, and tradition.
Derived from geez not only yours dude
The two girls on the right, especially the one with coloured hair, are true historians. She is very good at observation and the moment she mentioned Zimbamwe, I was speechless.
This was great. Please include more African languages and people into your videos!
One of you mentioned that Ethiopia was colonized by Italy. That is inaccurate - Ethiopia was never colonized by any country; it fought against colonization and won.
Italy was in Eritrea but I don't know if you can call it colonization.
Occupation i would say.
we love you for putting namibia on your program we hope to see more thank you so much and i hope you come visit namibia
My fellow Namibian where are you at 🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦 I saw our flag and so stopped by ❤❤❤
🇳🇦 Namibia , she spoke Oshiwambo 🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦🇳🇦
She spoke Oshiwambo so brilliantly. Thank for representing Namibia 🇳🇦
Shona and swahili shares a lot of words because they both bantus
Unfortunately all the bantu dilects are very different.
Shona itself has about six or more dilects of which 2 in 10 people can speak or understand at least 3 dilects.
Lkkkk its complex ,diverse and fun like that kkkk
It surprised me from East Africa. Great stuff❤
Proudly zimbabwean..she did us proud
Yes that is right explanation ❤
@@TiongePhiri-iy9gq We all understand each other as Shona. And we even write one Shona exam the whole country. A lot of Shona words are similar to Swahili as they are bantu languages. Especially the phonetics.
There are so many things intrinsicly and factually wrong about this video, from the misinformation in one of the girls saying they speak "Italian", even though no country in Africa has Italian as a national language.
Or the fact that the girl on the far right assumes that every African language must have some sort of foundation from a European language.
Please educate yourselves when make content based on the continent of over a billion people, otherwise you're just spreading misinformation.
Nahhh these girls are sooo good at this. I'm genuinely impressed
I really liked this one, was pretty interesting knowing a bit about the languages of Africa, is such a wonderful place and pretty diverse !
I loved Andrea and Draga on the same team
I love this edition! I wish I was part of the guessing panel. 😃
10:39, baby girl said aatye. I love it! Well done Naapopye in representing us. So pretty too ❤
I guessed Shona 🎉🎉😁
I heard it once fr, I was also thinking of Swahili but Shona was my first guess
Arabic was easy to guess - first reason and second reason is that I remember Mena from some videos
Namibia - that was the hardest there and honestly I never heard that language ever
I think this is one of the best episodes I ever watched. The panelists are not blank on world geography, the questions are good, and the participants are cool too especially the Namibian girl.
Motherland,Land Of The Brave,proud to be a Namibian
Italy failed miserably trying to colonize Ethiopia
Exactly i dont think Ethiopians speak Italian.
@@annmariebusu9924 No we don't. They only stayed for 5 years before being forced to go back
@@heranalemayehu right 👏🏿 👏🏿 👏🏿
Nice to watch this programme.
Fun, cute characters and culture.
Wtf, Ethiopia not colonie of Italy... no country has colonized the country
Mmm that girl from zimbabwe was speaking deep shona😂😂
No l wasn’t 😂l tried simplifying it in the best way 😅
Well done for representing. I'm Zimbabwean too
For real ❤🎉😂
Same here❤🇿🇼
Thank you 😅
Ethiopia was never colonized the girl on the right(idk her name )
When Kayoso said her country doesn’t speak a Latin language I immediately guessed Namibia since they were colonized by Germany, but Namibia has a huge coastline. The only non-Latin speaking language country that “kinda” has a coastline is DRC since they were colonized by Belgium and only a small part of the country has access to the Atlantic despite its size and for some strange reason Angola has control over what should be the coastline shared between DRC and Congo even though it’s not connected to Angola.
In Namibia their mean language is English.
French is the official language of the DRC and when people speak in local languages they use French words here and there. Both teams chose countries that have romance languages as their official languages so they didn't follow the answer to their own question.
@@stevenmora0017 The main language is Oshiwambo and its more common in the north of Namibia, english is official but less than 3% speaks it
french is latin. belgians speak french, so do congelese
Actually for me, when she said 'Kinda' it immediately made me think of Namibia, because although it has a big coastline, the question was phrased 'do you have access to the sea', and everyone in Namibia lives inland because the coastline is almost entirely uninhabitable
Ethiopia holds the distinction of being the only African nation that successfully resisted European colonization during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, maintaining its independence and cultural identity throughout the era of imperial expansion in Africa.
And Botswana.
Thanks for this work!!
I really enjoyed watching this. As an African and a linguist, I'm fascinated. Such videos revive the African spirit and pride of being African.
Good to see you represent Zim, Ryan!!!
Thank you😅
Glad to see more Africans in this channel❤❤
To be fair, Zimbabwe and Namibia when you thought it was Swahili you weren’t very wrong. Shona (Zimbabwe), Swahili (central Africa) and Oshiwambo (Namibia) are Bantu languages and other about 600 languages. Just like the Romance languages some words are similar and the general sounds in how they speak are similar
As a southern african who speaks 3 bantu languages, and I learnt Spanish and Italian. I’ve never found any similarity in the sounds. 😅
But now that it’s mentioned I can kinda hear it.
I’ve found more similarity in some Asian languages with the sounds.
Swahili is East Africa
First step is to understand the languages families of Africa. Second step is to know the country name and language have nothing in common. Third step is to understand the geography. 4th step is to know the most popular languages like swahili, arabic, yoruba and be able to use elimination methods. For example, if they knew what Bantu was, then knowing swahili sounds, they'd be able to figure out yes it is bantu but not swahili. It's hard, it takes serious research.
@@Lia538 don't forget asians ancestors come from africa the Khoisan
So true
If you only visit Egypt, you will see the real beauty, wonderful culture and the most wonderful history ever❤ It is the most beautiful country in Africa❤
finally african countries !!!🥳
We will always suppport this channel. They're one of the best.
Wooow. Draga/Andrea in one team 🔥👍
Miss Ana
Did she say Ethiopia was an Italian colony😩wrong!! guess you need to read some history books!! The only country in Africa never to be colonised!!
I enjoyed this, though I was surprised about the Mozambique guess. I thought this since Portuguese is a national language there and the speaker had said she was not from a country where Latin-based languages were spoken.
Naapopye representing the motherland 😍 #Namibia
Mena was too nice to them- dropping Middle East in there 😂
Once she spoke arabic and her look, that was enough. Anything more than that is pure cheating for them lol. She should have said I'm not telling you if it's close to europe or middle east.
She doesn’t know how to play lol
Naapopye my girl🫰, thank you for representing us. You did well
What is the American girl talking about? No native African languages have European based languages. There might be a European language spoken in the country but the native languages were there long before the European ones.
There are a lot of english, French and Portuguese based creoles in africa.
There's well over 10,000 native languages spoken all ober the African continent and none of them sprung from European languages. And yes I'm African.
@@stevenmora0017 No, there's not. There are native languages who added some words in their languages due the long period of colonisation
@@stevenmora0017name them. maybe slang lol. are you implying that africans could not speak until you colonizer thieves came?
🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼 we were well represented there. Well done girl.
Mahn,I came here for smthing else😂🤦🏾♂️..,but its great seeing my tribe there.
S/O to the Oshiwambo Girl from Nam❤
I love this video, coz except from Mozambique and Angola that speaks portuguêse (my native language), and north countries speaking Arabic, get to know a bit more about south languages of Africa made me happier. Wish I could know more Africans :)
Where are you from ?
@@lawtraf8008 Brazil
Cabo Verde also has portuguese as their official language. It's a PALOP: Paises Africanos de Lingua Oficial Portuguesa
Wow, Shona language is very beautiful. Not as beautiful as the girl speaking it, but beautiful nonetheless.
Thank you 😅much appreciated
At last African countries 🎉
Musikana uyu atidadisa…proud to see someone from Zimbabwe
*Wow Africa Edition!*
🇳🇦 = Nambibia
🇪🇬 = Egypt
🇿🇼 = Zimbabwe
The first flag is Namibia
@@cosimomontelatici5552Thank you for the correction
Namibia
l'm from zimbabwe.l enjoyed watching this❤
❤
In Mozambique they speak Portuguese
They speak Portuguese and other languages there so they thought it could be something else.
@@ThePraQNome Yeah the question was if there was any Latin based language in her country
@@ThePraQNomethey speak sena mostly
The huddle up doesnt help at all🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lovely to see my sister countries (Namibia and Zimbabwe 🤗)
Sending love from 🇿🇦 SA
The last one was very tricky, though im African, Ive never seen or had anyone speaking the language the Namibian lady was speaking. The Namians that I know of speak English and Afrikaans. When I heard her speak, I was certain that its probably from North/West Africa 🙈
bro we ethiopian never colonized we dont have italiyan colony wtf
Ethiopia was never an Italian colony, occupied but not colonized, know the difference and educate yourself tf
Yes im from eithopia
The first lady spoke about mosi ou tunya (the Victoria falls), she said her country is Land rocked, she said chicken, special meal, etc. all those were signs she is from southern Africa. Since she talked about mosi-ou-tunya, you were left with two choices, Zimbabwe or Zambia.
They probably know Victoria Falls not the other name 😅was indirectly giving them clues
I really hope we have more videos with them!! Super awesome and unique group! Definitely one of the best episodes so far!!
ZIMBABWE MENTIONED RAHHHH 🦅🦅🦅🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼
😅😅😅
These ladies are amazing! They know their stuff and know how to strategize. There’s a channel with a very similar format (which, let’s face it, probably what this was based on) but they are not as smart as these girls with their guesses. Draga is the MVP for being so well-prepared 😂 👍
For the people unaware the girl from Namibia has A condition named albinism and it makes people turn into the lightest from the skin color to hair to even the eyes to the point albinos cannot handle the sun at all . Much love ❤️
Im Zimbabwean and team 2 definitely did well.
Right 😅
I am Kenyan and shocked that I heard her count so clearly. We say moja, mbili, tatu, nne, tano here. Africa be a big village.
Amapiano, isipiano, upiano, ...
I heard what sounded like "tatu nne" which are numbers in Swahili. Shona and Swahili are both Bantu, but Bantu covers a wide area of Africa.
On the Namibian I was lost. From her appearance I thought she's either South African or from the northern coast, but she didn't sound like Afrikaans or any Berber language I've heard. Ovambo is another Bantu language.
She's albino just to clarify. I know her.
@@itsyagirlmay Ah! Now that makes sense.
I think if you paid attention, you'd have noticed that she's not white or mixed, she's albino, which instantly makes you think Southeast Africa (as they've the most cases of albinism). However, the language isn't swahili but nonetheless still bantu which takes you to Central or Southern Africa. I guessed Namibia or Angola and it turned out to be Namibia. Oshiwambo or the vambo language was it. Sounded nice!
Yes. But Many doesn't know what albino is so they think she's white and go to think she from North or south ( because these parts are famous with white population) @@itsyagirlmay
I really liked the video, taking arabic apart, it was the first time I listened those languages
Draga is my favorite. ❤
I love that you guys a discovering Namibia
Happy holidays to all!
The Ethiopia people have a “specific face”. I can identify an Ethiopian because there’s face
Yes, same with Somalis also. East Africans in generally have different face from other Africans
@@Ahmed-pf3lg Tutsi from Rwanda/Burundi also have similar look to people from Horn of Africa.
Me too. If the person is tall, he or she may be from South Sudan or Kenya.
Usually but not always the case. Also, it is not an "ethiopian" face, it's cushitic and yes it can vary but ethiopia and eritrea are like north and south korea, so there you have it lol. Sometimes somalis can be confused for those two bc they're also cushitic just like a minority people from parts of rwanda, kenya, uganda can look "ethiopic" (cushitic) due to immigration or admixture. Oh and don''t forget Djibouti is cushitic too mostly, so be careful lol.
@@afckajjansi Eritrea and northern Ethiopia are mostly semitic actually, when it comes to language at least.
❤❤❤👌 form Zimbabwe 🇿🇼🇿🇼

I am very happy to saw 🇿🇼 girl to represent us ❤❤❤
Why did she say Middle East instead of الشرق الأوسط 😂
Yeah I was about to comment the same thing 😂
She was too nice to them 😂
so fun, other not so common countries are fun to guess.
She is so well spoken
I'm a Mauritanian and i love your channel
I have a Namibian friend who speaks Oshiwamvo😅but I've never heard it. Although her answer was misleading because when asked about the coastline she said "kinda" but it's 100% true?
Oshiwambo*
Hi andrea love you happy holliday.
Amazing!!
This is so hilarious 😂😂😂
Júlia's Strong's points are travels, foods, fashions and games and films, it's good for her to take classes with Ana about languages and with Draga, who after a medium period of time she comes back as an expert in languages for now, she's raw, but with training she comes back these jokes really mean it.
Video was beautiful.
Love to see a Zimbabwean
❤❤❤
These ladies are ao beautiful😍
I am in love with this,Am Zimbabwean and currently staying in Poland .
