Putting Portuguese (specifically the Brazilian one) as gigachad was definitely the correct decision. By far my favorite language to learn. I wish you put Indonesian at least to alpha because it’s another underrated, cool language I really like too
@@AlionaLukina as a native Portuguese, I can tell you it's not easy AT ALL. Most native Portuguese speakers from Portugal don't even know the language that well, and don't get me started on Brazilians
@@notishow737 kkkkk, yep, I guess it isn't! But that's fine! Anyway, I want a challenge! I'm kinda done with taking up only romance languages ( currently and accidentally learning Spanish, English and French along the way :), so, yeah, I'd like to set myself up for tough ones. As well as that, if language learning didn't imply struggle and dedication, I wouldn't be so much invested in it :) P. S. I'm in love with the way Portuguese sounds🌺. Having watched a couple of travel-ish vlogs in Portugal, I wish I could explore the country :) kk Sorry for the book I've just written..
Vietnamese is the way it is was all thanks to our forefathers and especially great leader Ho going on his pilgrimage and coming back bringing changes to the country, we actually used to do the whole symbols characters thing of our own called "Nôm" but that's been replaced by the Latin alphabet and things been gucci ever since, love your tier list and videos overall, appreciate the gigachad position. Hope you can come to 'Nam to live and learn Viet to your heart's content :^)
Cantonese is so underrated. It's not that niche, it may be mostly Hong Kong but it's still spoken by around 80 million and in SE Asia and the dominant language in a lot of Chinatowns. It sounds cooler than Mandarin if you ask me, I like the final partical tail sounds to add flavour to sentences aaaa and I like the audacity that 5 is just 'ng'. No vowels!
Well most Cantonese speakers are from Guangdong and Guangxi, not Hong Kong, not sure why you exclude mentioning the majority. There are many Cantonese dialects in Guangdong and Guangxi and not all sound so nice, I know that because I am from Nanning and I didn't like the sounds of our Cantonese dialect so I ended up never picking up the language
Cantonese is spoken in Guangdong and Guanxi provinces, Hong Kong, Macao, many southeast asian chinese diaspora and many Chinatown in the world. It is included in the top 20 most spoken languages in the world with around 80 millions speakers. A lot of characters are unique to cantonese, and not really used in mandarin, and mandarin vocabulary and grammar sound often so formal to cantonese speaker 😂. Mandarin speaker use words that will be only used in poem in cantonese 😂. For me it sound way more stylish than mandarin because it don’t have all these “zh ch sh j q x z c s r” sound, it just have “z c s”. Also, if learn Hong Kong canto, you can encounter a lot of english loanwords + traditional characters are GIGACHAD.
saying “the characters are mostly the same so it’s not interesting” is like saying “i’m not interested in french because the alphabet is mostly the same as english”. The grammar and vocabulary of cantonese differ often with mandarin. In mandarin you say “你是美国人吗 ni shi meiguoren ma ?”, in cantonese you say “你係唔係美國人呀 lei hai m hai meigokyan ah ?”, you can also say “你是美国人吗 nei si meigokyan ma” in cantonese, but it’s only used in a formal way. Hope you understand !
@@perlagodinho no, just as hard as mandarin, if you understand the concept of tones, no matter the number of tones, and also some tones can be confused in cantonese like the flat - 1 and 3, the ☑2 and 5, and the low_ 4 and 6... Also mandarin have more homophones because it have less tones, cantonese don't have this problem.
cantonese is a gigachad language the characters are "the same" (mostly) but the way they are used and the way sentences are structured are completely different., and its spoken all around the world like in asian american communities and south east asia too -- pair it with the fact that its way more culturally relevant and just better sounding compared to mandarin and i think it deserves to be way higher on the list. the only problem is that its near impossible to learn it academically unless you were born into it (which makes it that much cooler)

You know in belgium (flanders) we speak with a soft g which makes our accent quite different from the Netherlands, we also have more french and german words in our local dialects which people from the Netherlands wont understand. Idk how to compare it kind of like British and American. Btw keep up the great content 🔥
In fact, the difference between the characters of Cantonese and Mandarin are not only traditional and simplified, the character itself is different, because their vocabularies are different. For example, "I'm going home by bus" in Cantonese : 我搭緊巴士返屋企 in Mandarin : 我正在坐公交车回家 Obviously, there is only one character is the same "我", means "I". Cantonese and Mandarin, their characters, tones, pronunciations, vocabularies are very different (grammar are slightly different). So their mutual intelligibility by speaking is almost 0%, and even the writing system mutual intelligibility is about 30%~60%, depens on the content. There're about 100 million Cantonese speaker in the world, it's a so interesting, potential and beautiful language :)
People say Mandarin is much simpler to learn than Cantonese, though (at least for someone speaking a European language first). Is it true? I really wanna learn one of them and while I lean towards Cantonese but always get scared off lol
@@dawnwatching6382 I don't want to scared you, but yes, overall Cantonese is harder than Mandarin, especially the characters. But there's one point that many people think Cantonese is easier than Mandarin: Mandarin has many different words which are sharing the same pronunciation. And I think the most difficult things of Cantonese are a great deal of slangs and the ending words which contain emotion and feeling of the speaker. But I think it's also the most interesting things of Cantonese :)
@@dawnwatching6382i think they have the same level of difficulty, but cantonese is more a spoken language so is more difficult to find “written informal” content to learn from
I guess I'll leave my thoughts on some of the languages in the video (not all of them, because I don’t have much to say about all of them and the comment would be way too long. :P) *Danish* - seriously, Danish looks and sounds grand! I love the Danish vocabulary, its letters, its sounds, and the whole package. I'll certainly consider learning it after I learn German and Dutch. And I can't wait to try and pronounce the hilarious soft D or what they call studs! *Arabic* - Arabic is also awesome! Its writing system is SO cool, as well as its phonology. Arabic is one of my choices for languages I want to learn without a doubt. I can't quite read Arabic yet, but I will one day. I have its alphabet memorized, so there's a start. *Swedish* - I was really surprised to see you place Swedish in average instead of dogwater! Swedish looks pretty easy to learn and I'm sure I would have a fun time with it. It also has the å, and since I'm going through a phase where I obsess over Germanic letters, I would be way more than happy to use it in my texts when speaking Swedish. *Norwegian* - I heard English speakers can learn the language really easily, so I might give it a shot. It has the same alphabet as Danish with the æ, å, and ø, so why would I not try it? *German* - As previously stated, German is one of the languages I plan to learn. (I started last weekend and am loving it so far!) My friend speaks a little German, so I'll be really excited to speak with him in German! Also, German has the Eszett, or ß! I was obsessed over this letter for several months on end, and I still love it, so I can see myself peeing on the walls over how excited I am to finally use a word with the ß in it! *Somali* - I looked at Somali’s alphabet, and WOAH! But that’s about it, rofl. *Greek* - bro, Greek. My love for the Greek language goes WAY back. Back in the day, I used to be obsessed with mathematics, and as you may know, Greek letters play a huge role in mathematics. I was really interested in the letters of Greek, and so I looked at its alphabet and immediately grew attached to it. It has δ, ζ, β, λ, μ, ξ, ς, ω, just so many cool-looking letters! My favorite at the time was ω because of my obsession with a thing called infinite ordinals at the time and because of how it looked. Another thing, the name of this letter and a different letter is how my username originated! Anyways, Greek was also the first language I tried learning, but that didn't go well… at all. I tried learning it through DuoLingo, but I didn't learn any useful vocabulary at all and felt like I was just pressing buttons as a chore. Greek reminds me of those bad memories, but I'll try and shake those off if I try learning it again, and next time using different learning resources. *Dutch* - again, as previously stated, I plan to learn Dutch! (After German, though.) The Dutch G is my single most favorite sound in any language, and I absolutely can't wait to start using it within my speech! I already know I’ll have a blast learning Dutch. *Russian* - so, the thing with Russian is I absolutely adore the language. In fact, it might still be my favorite language today. The only problem with it is its vocabulary; no matter how hard I try, I just can't put sentences together because the vocabulary won't stick in my head. It makes me really, really sad, but the ability to know how to read Cyrillic is nice I suppose. I recently paused on studying the language in favor of German, but I might pick it back up one day. *Japanese* - I will just say it, Japanese is a cool language. I think it is a really unique language for having three different writing systems that work together in harmony to create full sentences! There are a few things that make the language a force to be reckoned with, such as the thing I just mentioned, the radicals, the grammar, and more. But just be thankful the language doesn't have tones!!!!!!!!! Also, I find it cool how some of the loanwords in Japanese are borrowed from English. And lastly, I was shocked when you put Japanese in beta. *Korean* - Korean just… has this aura for me that makes me not like the language at all. I’m not sure why. *Polish* - I think Polish is a really cool and interesting language! I heard the language's grammar was extremely complex, tedious, and convoluted, which is what really sparked my interest in the language. At the time, I thought it would be cool if I could speak a language with complex grammar, and Polish was the first one I ever heard of with complex grammar, so I started to adore the language even more! I hold a soft spot in my heart for Polish. *Hebrew* - it must be really hard for language learners to not accidentally read the entire bible in one sitting while studying Hebrew. No, but seriously, I think Hebrew is almost, if not, just as cool as Arabic is! The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is the other letter that gave birth to my username along with the Greek letter ω. This was mainly because of the mathematics I was into at the time, but it still is special regardless. Anyways, Hebrew's alphabet reminds me a little of the Latin alphabet, which I love! And on top of that, it reminds me of Arabic's alphabet since it is an abjad and the letters work similarly to Arabic's letters, so it makes me love it even more! It also has the Dutch G in it along with some semitic phonemes, so that just makes the language even more worth learning in my eyes! I can't see myself going the rest of my life without learning Hebrew. *English* - I'll replace the British and American segment with English so I can talk about the language in general. Despite what a massive set of people think, I believe English is a beautiful language. It does a lot of things other languages normally can't (or don't) do and is overall really unusual compared to other languages, and I mean that in a good way. You don't think so? Well, get this: we capitalize the first-person subjective pronoun I in any given scenario. Also, we have silent letters here, which isn't that unusual, but the most notorious of them all is the silent E, which does a lot for us! As does C, Q, X, and any letter of the alphabet, really. They all have an excellent reason for being there even if it may not seem like it at first. *Vietnamese* - Vietnamese is such a cool language, and I don't care if anyone says otherwise. The language has a total of 89 letters in it, about three fourths of those letters are tone letters, but that is what makes it fun! Much like Hebrew, I will learn this language. Mark my words. *French* - I view a lot of languages higher than I do French, but that doesn't mean the language is bad. When the bar is set high, you have tough competition, and with that said, French isn't as appealing to me as a lot of other languages are, and neither is Spanish. Though, it does use the Latin alphabet with lots of diacritic letters and œ, which is neat. *Mandarin* - Mandarin has the most simplistic grammar I have ever seen in a language, which made me really interested in it. I also considered learning it, and to this day, I'm still considering it. It would seem easier than Japanese considering you only get the characters instead of the syllabary, but I have no clue if the radicals work the same way or not. *Icelandic* - Icelandic also uses two other Old English letters, those being Ðð and Ææ. Ð made the TH sound, but the voiced version instead of the voiceless version as þ does. Æ sounded a bit like the E in spend mixed with A in cat. I'm not sure if they do the same thing in Icelandic, but it is a cool language regardless! Oh, they also have á, é, í, ó, ö, ú, and ý in the alphabet, so you'll have a pretty fun time learning it if you do. (Despite how those last letters look, they aren't tones, but instead are their own letters with their own unique sounds!) Icelandic is awesome. *Afrikaans* - you know, Afrikaans was one of the Germanic languages I wanted to learn before the others, but after thinking about it more, it wouldn't be one of my first picks. What interested me about it was its near-identical sentences to English, but that is really it. *Tagalog* - this is embarrassing to admit, but I saw an animation of one of my favorite games, and in it, they were speaking Filipino, which I heard is basically the same as Tagalog, so that immediately made me like the language a lot more. So, I could definitely see myself giving a shot at trying to learn the language one day! Thanks for reading.
@@alephomega955that wasn't rude at all you autistic piece of sht, learn to understand the ideas that other people are trying to convey when they talk to you. you see, that was rude
Swedish pronounciation + danish accent would be the best sounding nordic language. So basically if the danish pronunciation hadn't changed like the way it did, it would definitely be a gigachad language without doubt.
bruh, Polish has 7 (but two of them make the same sound) standard vowels (a, e, i, o, u/ó, y) and 2 nasal ones (ą, ę), but they are always short, that's why the language may sound vowelless for some people. We also have palatal consonants which is quite unique I believe and foreigners sometimes seem to struggle to feel a difference between palatal consonants and "hard" ones (ś vs sz, ć vs cz, ź vs ż, dź vs dż) if you know what I mean
If you're gonna learn a slavic language pick croatian/serbian instead of slovenian because you'll be understood across all of croatia, serbia and bosnia
@@HvantmikiWell of course, cause the children have mainly been exposed to Norwegian. The issue arises when you try to bring in elements from your native language or L2 into Norwegian.
Prior to the Islamic conquest, Middle Persian was written in the Pahlavi script which was derived from the Aramaic script. Aramaic being the father of both Syriac and Pahlavi alphabets. Aramaic is a semitic language and the alphabet is in a sense similar to both Hebrew and Arabic. During the Old Persian era, the language was written in the Cuneiform script

@@afsane_nezhadi lol you guys need to go back to school 🤦🏻♀️ The cuneiform which you call “mikhi” was a writing system that the Persia copied from the assyrians and at best can be dated to around 5000 years ago.

I learned some Czech before traveling to Czech Republic. It’s an interesting language I love the ě ř ď and c sounds and how almost every word is stressed in the same place. Sounds melodic. It’s just a shame that the competition from the other Slavic languages was tough for this competition. I would put it in Gigachad, but it has to get bumped down for the existence of čtyři. Not even Czech people can say it.
I am only putting myself through the torture of Hungarian so I can speak to my grandparents in a language they are completely fluent in. I am also learning Romanian to speak to them as well. Hungarian is also overall an important language for pianists lol.

Persian is different than Farsi, the Arabs started to document and use the Arabic script only when Islam came along. Then it was introduced to the Persian and they started to use the Arabic script after they became Muslim. Before that they used the Pahlavi alphabet. A lot of people thought Arabic before islam was only a spoken langueg and with the start of islam and the need of documentation, they started to write. But that's not true Arabs had almost always had a script, but thought of writing as a weakness. If you could memorize pages on pages of poetry, you wouldn't need to write down your groceries list. The Arabic script was influenced by Nabataean tribes script, and not Farsi.

*Persian* is one of the oldest spoken languages known to mankind with a record of 3500 years and the richest literary legacy in the world. It is a *classical language of antiquity* and the historical lingua franca of higher arts, culture and sciences in West, Central and South Asia. Persian words in English include "paradise," "pyjama", "rice," "amazon," "rose," "saffron," "asparagus," "spinach," "shawl," and "pistachio." Persian is written in the *Persian script (پ گ چ ژ).* The Persians played a crucial role in the refinement and legibility of the script by inventing accent marks. The writing system would have lacked the necessary features to accurately represent the phonetic nuances in any language without the introduction of diacritics and dots by Persians. It expanded the script's versatility, allowing for the recording of many languages, even beyond the Persianate realm. As for language classifications, Persian is a member of the *Indo-European language family.* It shares fundamental characteristics in terms of both grammar and vocabulary with its relatives like Latin, English, French, and Russian. Words like "baradar" for brother, "madar" for mother, "pedar" for padre in Spanish (father), "dokhtar" for daughter, "to" for tu in French (you), "andar" for inter, "do" for dos in Spanish (two), "zamin" for zemĕ in Croatian and zdmyla in Russian (earth), and even "shahr" for "skaan" in Old Norse (city), show the strong and old ties of this language family. This similarity in language is due to the *Proto-Indo-European expansion* that originated from the steppes of Central Asia, from where the customs and practices of Indo-European peoples across both Europe and Asia derive.
In 35:16 you said that, urdu is spoken in Pakistan. Which isn't particularly true. In a lot of parts in northern India people speaks urdu. Even most of the major writers in urdu literature are from india. Oh, and also please learn bengali. If you learn Hindi it'll be so easy for you to learn bengali. It's also known as the most sweetest language in the world which is spoken in north-east india and Bangladesh.
I assume you're a Bengali lol, but that's true for almost every language that has originated from the Devnagari script (Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Nepali, Assamese, etc.)
I can completely understand that Norwegian sounds comparatively boring. The dialect of Oslo and its vicinity which is most commonly heard is positively boring; it’s roughly the oral equivalent of bokmål and in terms of American I would liken it to the general US&A accent. However, one redeeming feature of Norwegian is in my opinion the written form of nynorsk. It’s closer to old Norse than Swedish or Danish, but it appears to be dying, and I guess one would not expect otherwise. But this was presumably a good list, all things considered.
A native Turkish speaker that also speaks Polish here (lived in Poland for 5 years). Tbh, pronunciation is very straightforward once you learn how to pronounce each letter and the combinations. Speaking Russian is also a big bonus for you, I guess the only thing that you'll struggle with will be not messing up the conjugations etc (for example, for singular 1st person conjugation, unlike Russian it wouldn't be ю sound but ę, or -am). That's what my native Russian speaker friends were struggling with.
*Hungarian:* is hard, has many cases, has vowel harmony → Dogwater. *Finnish:* the same, but maybe a bit easier → Alpha. 🤔😅 Finnish language sounds interesting. It has a rythm that makes it unique and funny. I'm not sure that do I actually like it or just find it strange. 😅 Maybe one day - if I'll be still interested -, _maybe_ I'll start to learn it. Now I learn Slovak from videos. I have no other reason to learn it, just because it sounds good. ❤ I know, it seems ironic from a Hungarian, but it's not a joke, I do actually like that language. I think Slovak is the most beautiful slavic language. It is similar to Czech, but better. And Slovak doesn't have that strange-sounding "ř" that Czech have.
As a serb I gotta tell you that serbian is a very beautiful language. It is very close to Russian, but the vocabulary and spelling are 100x more intuitive and easy. For example, we have no vowels like Я or ё, we just have the letter "J" (й), and we combine with A to create "Ja" or "Јо". Serbian is a phonetic language, which means that if you learn the alphabet, you will know how to read the language. We also have no symbols such as ь or "ы" in our cyrillic alphabet. We simply combined the letters Н and Л with ь to create "Љ" and "Њ" (Ly, Ny) If you like russian but hate the grammar, you should definitely learn serbian, but if you don't want to learn cyrillic, you don't have to, you can just learn our modified latin alphabet which isn't even hard (everyone on the internet uses the latin alphabet for serbian, only hard nationalists and institutions use cyrillic). It's a shame they don't have it on duolingo, even though over 20 million people speak it.
Serbian language is considered a bit more difficult than Russian, although it's easier to read it due to its phonetic nature... When it comes to pronunciation -- for a lot of people Russian is actually easier as it is softer and has less consonants than Serbian + Serbian has more accents.
Для иностранцев может и легче, но мне, как русскому человеку, довольно непривычно видеть все эти слова на латинице с кучей букв, как бывает в том же польском, хотя Сербский в этом плане действительно приятнее и понятнее других
As a native speaker of hungarian, romanian, slovakian, croatian, serbian and Siriusian, and as also a fluent speaker of AASL, I just want to thank you for not learning hungarian, since you'd probably end up butchering it up more than AASL, but you had the audacity to speak 2 words of the universal language of the Sirius constellation as an american, which is rightfully punishable by 8 death sentences and 5 years of speaking norwegian, but I've pardoned you on the basis that you moved it up a tier, and confessed your human weakness of being unable to learn hungarian, so your sentence has been lowered to a 250 year ban on space travel.
As an romanian i approve. Our language sounds really nice to other people who are not romanians (at least from my opinion). Va salut prieteni si sa aveti o zi/seara placuta!
So there’s multiple scripts that come to Hebrew. There is print, which is probably what you see most the time. But most people write in handwritten script, while our italics are written in Rashi script. Hebrew wasn’t really a dead language, however it was mostly used for writing to other Jews around the world as well as used as a scholarly language. However, many texts were also written in Aramaic. Calling it a dead isn’t that fair because it was still spoken and read, however diasporic languages were used more often as a halfway point between Hebrew and the surrounding language in the diaspora.
Of course there are a lot of foreign words that doesn't exist or no exact or close translation in Tagalog so we use the American words usually for example. BUT Filipinos are just too lazy to use their native words for specific things in daily conversation and I blame the education system and the media because of that. Spoken Modern Tagalog mostly in the capital region is a dogwater. But Tagalog in poetry, music and literature is an absolute Gigachad.
As a Norwegian it is so funny to me that danish is always so high and Norwegian is so low when Norwegian is basically danish with a reasonable pronunciation. Haha. Keep at it, you gigachad
after i learn ruski im doing georgian sounds amazing and and one of the best looking alphabets amharic also looks amazing and greek is definitely also gigachad
The Vietnamese Ư is actually quite similar to the Ы so the correct pronunciation of "Tôi đến từ Mỹ" would be "Toy den tы mi" minus the tones (the ô and ê are pronounced like the Spanish o and e)

@@javierhillier4252 Ya, es cierto, pero tampoco es apropiado decir que "Es vocabulario francés" porque hay palabras que en francés son totalmente diferentes, pero que en español e italiano son prácticamente las mismas.

Your Greek is not as good as some of the other languages I've heard you speak, but it's understandable & grammatically correct. Also your accents are way above average for an American.
I find European Portuguese really ugly, the one in Brasil is a bit better though. The only Romance language I would call pretty is Italian, I guess, although far from exciting.
Hebrew sounds that way because ח used to make its own sound (the same sound as خ) but in Modern Hebrew it became identical to כ, which produces the sound you're noticing. So it appears twice as much as it originally did (actually, ח is more common than כ, so it might be as much as three times).
That arabic talk though Dude is a legend Best dialect to speak is the بلاد الشام dialect everyone can understand ,but u sadly cant understand most other dialects
If you're learning a Turkic language, go for Kyrgyz! Sounds militaristic as heck, exactly what I picture when I think of pre-Anatolian Turks. Kind of 'purer' Turkish.

Cantonese is so underrated. It's not that niche, it may be mostly Hong Kong but it's still spoken by around 80 million and in SE Asia and the dominant language in a lot of Chinatowns. It sounds cooler than Mandarin if you ask me, I like the final partical tail sounds to add flavour to sentences aaaa and I like the audacity that 5 is just 'ng'. No vowels!
Well most Cantonese speakers are from Guangdong and Guangxi, not Hong Kong, not sure why you exclude mentioning the majority. There are many Cantonese dialects in Guangdong and Guangxi and not all sound so nice, I know that because I am from Nanning and I didn't like the sounds of our Cantonese dialect so I ended up never picking up the language
ok
Mandarin is more efficient so...
@@peterc66yeah Guanxi cantonese is different from gz/hk cantonese
Why does Cantonese sound cooler than mandarin to you
I'm from Saudi Arabia and I'm glad you think Arabic is fun. Enjoying you languages journey and thank you for the great content!
Cantonese is spoken in Guangdong and Guanxi provinces, Hong Kong, Macao, many southeast asian chinese diaspora and many Chinatown in the world. It is included in the top 20 most spoken languages in the world with around 80 millions speakers. A lot of characters are unique to cantonese, and not really used in mandarin, and mandarin vocabulary and grammar sound often so formal to cantonese speaker 😂. Mandarin speaker use words that will be only used in poem in cantonese 😂. For me it sound way more stylish than mandarin because it don’t have all these “zh ch sh j q x z c s r” sound, it just have “z c s”. Also, if learn Hong Kong canto, you can encounter a lot of english loanwords + traditional characters are GIGACHAD.
真based
saying “the characters are mostly the same so it’s not interesting” is like saying “i’m not interested in french because the alphabet is mostly the same as english”. The grammar and vocabulary of cantonese differ often with mandarin. In mandarin you say “你是美国人吗 ni shi meiguoren ma ?”, in cantonese you say “你係唔係美國人呀 lei hai m hai meigokyan ah ?”, you can also say “你是美国人吗 nei si meigokyan ma” in cantonese, but it’s only used in a formal way. Hope you understand !
but aren't the tones in catonese way harder?
@@perlagodinho no, just as hard as mandarin, if you understand the concept of tones, no matter the number of tones, and also some tones can be confused in cantonese like the flat - 1 and 3, the ☑2 and 5, and the low_ 4 and 6... Also mandarin have more homophones because it have less tones, cantonese don't have this problem.
Knowing his high level of trolling, however, I had a heart attack when he added Russian to the very bottom
cantonese is a gigachad language
the characters are "the same" (mostly) but the way they are used and the way sentences are structured are completely different., and its spoken all around the world like in asian american communities and south east asia too -- pair it with the fact that its way more culturally relevant and just better sounding compared to mandarin and i think it deserves to be way higher on the list. the only problem is that its near impossible to learn it academically unless you were born into it (which makes it that much cooler)
Standard Mandarin is a dogshit
yes as a native cantonese speaker.
I prefer everyone who wants to learn cantonese try to learn the written language in mandarin first.

You know in belgium (flanders) we speak with a soft g which makes our accent quite different from the Netherlands, we also have more french and german words in our local dialects which people from the Netherlands wont understand. Idk how to compare it kind of like British and American. Btw keep up the great content 🔥
As a half Hungarian half Russian: I have never been that conflicted over a TH-cam video
bringing danish down from gigachad and swedish up from a tier of its own at the bottom has to be the craziest plot twist of 2023 so far
Very good development so far😂
In fact, the difference between the characters of Cantonese and Mandarin are not only traditional and simplified, the character itself is different, because their vocabularies are different. For example, "I'm going home by bus"
in Cantonese : 我搭緊巴士返屋企
in Mandarin : 我正在坐公交车回家
Obviously, there is only one character is the same "我", means "I".
Cantonese and Mandarin, their characters, tones, pronunciations, vocabularies are very different (grammar are slightly different). So their mutual intelligibility by speaking is almost 0%, and even the writing system mutual intelligibility is about 30%~60%, depens on the content.
There're about 100 million Cantonese speaker in the world, it's a so interesting, potential and beautiful language :)
People say Mandarin is much simpler to learn than Cantonese, though (at least for someone speaking a European language first). Is it true? I really wanna learn one of them and while I lean towards Cantonese but always get scared off lol
@@dawnwatching6382 I don't want to scared you, but yes, overall Cantonese is harder than Mandarin, especially the characters. But there's one point that many people think Cantonese is easier than Mandarin: Mandarin has many different words which are sharing the same pronunciation. And I think the most difficult things of Cantonese are a great deal of slangs and the ending words which contain emotion and feeling of the speaker. But I think it's also the most interesting things of Cantonese :)
@@dawnwatching6382i think they have the same level of difficulty, but cantonese is more a spoken language so is more difficult to find “written informal” content to learn from
I guess I'll leave my thoughts on some of the languages in the video (not all of them, because I don’t have much to say about all of them and the comment would be way too long. :P)
*Danish* - seriously, Danish looks and sounds grand! I love the Danish vocabulary, its letters, its sounds, and the whole package. I'll certainly consider learning it after I learn German and Dutch. And I can't wait to try and pronounce the hilarious soft D or what they call studs!
*Arabic* - Arabic is also awesome! Its writing system is SO cool, as well as its phonology. Arabic is one of my choices for languages I want to learn without a doubt. I can't quite read Arabic yet, but I will one day. I have its alphabet memorized, so there's a start.
*Swedish* - I was really surprised to see you place Swedish in average instead of dogwater! Swedish looks pretty easy to learn and I'm sure I would have a fun time with it. It also has the å, and since I'm going through a phase where I obsess over Germanic letters, I would be way more than happy to use it in my texts when speaking Swedish.
*Norwegian* - I heard English speakers can learn the language really easily, so I might give it a shot. It has the same alphabet as Danish with the æ, å, and ø, so why would I not try it?
*German* - As previously stated, German is one of the languages I plan to learn. (I started last weekend and am loving it so far!) My friend speaks a little German, so I'll be really excited to speak with him in German! Also, German has the Eszett, or ß! I was obsessed over this letter for several months on end, and I still love it, so I can see myself peeing on the walls over how excited I am to finally use a word with the ß in it!
*Somali* - I looked at Somali’s alphabet, and WOAH! But that’s about it, rofl.
*Greek* - bro, Greek. My love for the Greek language goes WAY back. Back in the day, I used to be obsessed with mathematics, and as you may know, Greek letters play a huge role in mathematics. I was really interested in the letters of Greek, and so I looked at its alphabet and immediately grew attached to it. It has δ, ζ, β, λ, μ, ξ, ς, ω, just so many cool-looking letters! My favorite at the time was ω because of my obsession with a thing called infinite ordinals at the time and because of how it looked. Another thing, the name of this letter and a different letter is how my username originated! Anyways, Greek was also the first language I tried learning, but that didn't go well… at all. I tried learning it through DuoLingo, but I didn't learn any useful vocabulary at all and felt like I was just pressing buttons as a chore. Greek reminds me of those bad memories, but I'll try and shake those off if I try learning it again, and next time using different learning resources.
*Dutch* - again, as previously stated, I plan to learn Dutch! (After German, though.) The Dutch G is my single most favorite sound in any language, and I absolutely can't wait to start using it within my speech! I already know I’ll have a blast learning Dutch.
*Russian* - so, the thing with Russian is I absolutely adore the language. In fact, it might still be my favorite language today. The only problem with it is its vocabulary; no matter how hard I try, I just can't put sentences together because the vocabulary won't stick in my head. It makes me really, really sad, but the ability to know how to read Cyrillic is nice I suppose. I recently paused on studying the language in favor of German, but I might pick it back up one day.
*Japanese* - I will just say it, Japanese is a cool language. I think it is a really unique language for having three different writing systems that work together in harmony to create full sentences! There are a few things that make the language a force to be reckoned with, such as the thing I just mentioned, the radicals, the grammar, and more. But just be thankful the language doesn't have tones!!!!!!!!! Also, I find it cool how some of the loanwords in Japanese are borrowed from English. And lastly, I was shocked when you put Japanese in beta.
*Korean* - Korean just… has this aura for me that makes me not like the language at all. I’m not sure why.
*Polish* - I think Polish is a really cool and interesting language! I heard the language's grammar was extremely complex, tedious, and convoluted, which is what really sparked my interest in the language. At the time, I thought it would be cool if I could speak a language with complex grammar, and Polish was the first one I ever heard of with complex grammar, so I started to adore the language even more! I hold a soft spot in my heart for Polish.
*Hebrew* - it must be really hard for language learners to not accidentally read the entire bible in one sitting while studying Hebrew. No, but seriously, I think Hebrew is almost, if not, just as cool as Arabic is! The first letter of the Hebrew alphabet is the other letter that gave birth to my username along with the Greek letter ω. This was mainly because of the mathematics I was into at the time, but it still is special regardless. Anyways, Hebrew's alphabet reminds me a little of the Latin alphabet, which I love! And on top of that, it reminds me of Arabic's alphabet since it is an abjad and the letters work similarly to Arabic's letters, so it makes me love it even more! It also has the Dutch G in it along with some semitic phonemes, so that just makes the language even more worth learning in my eyes! I can't see myself going the rest of my life without learning Hebrew.
*English* - I'll replace the British and American segment with English so I can talk about the language in general. Despite what a massive set of people think, I believe English is a beautiful language. It does a lot of things other languages normally can't (or don't) do and is overall really unusual compared to other languages, and I mean that in a good way. You don't think so? Well, get this: we capitalize the first-person subjective pronoun I in any given scenario. Also, we have silent letters here, which isn't that unusual, but the most notorious of them all is the silent E, which does a lot for us! As does C, Q, X, and any letter of the alphabet, really. They all have an excellent reason for being there even if it may not seem like it at first.
*Vietnamese* - Vietnamese is such a cool language, and I don't care if anyone says otherwise. The language has a total of 89 letters in it, about three fourths of those letters are tone letters, but that is what makes it fun! Much like Hebrew, I will learn this language. Mark my words.
*French* - I view a lot of languages higher than I do French, but that doesn't mean the language is bad. When the bar is set high, you have tough competition, and with that said, French isn't as appealing to me as a lot of other languages are, and neither is Spanish. Though, it does use the Latin alphabet with lots of diacritic letters and œ, which is neat.
*Mandarin* - Mandarin has the most simplistic grammar I have ever seen in a language, which made me really interested in it. I also considered learning it, and to this day, I'm still considering it. It would seem easier than Japanese considering you only get the characters instead of the syllabary, but I have no clue if the radicals work the same way or not.
*Icelandic* - Icelandic also uses two other Old English letters, those being Ðð and Ææ. Ð made the TH sound, but the voiced version instead of the voiceless version as þ does. Æ sounded a bit like the E in spend mixed with A in cat. I'm not sure if they do the same thing in Icelandic, but it is a cool language regardless! Oh, they also have á, é, í, ó, ö, ú, and ý in the alphabet, so you'll have a pretty fun time learning it if you do. (Despite how those last letters look, they aren't tones, but instead are their own letters with their own unique sounds!) Icelandic is awesome.
*Afrikaans* - you know, Afrikaans was one of the Germanic languages I wanted to learn before the others, but after thinking about it more, it wouldn't be one of my first picks. What interested me about it was its near-identical sentences to English, but that is really it.
*Tagalog* - this is embarrassing to admit, but I saw an animation of one of my favorite games, and in it, they were speaking Filipino, which I heard is basically the same as Tagalog, so that immediately made me like the language a lot more. So, I could definitely see myself giving a shot at trying to learn the language one day!

Swedish pronounciation + danish accent would be the best sounding nordic language. So basically if the danish pronunciation hadn't changed like the way it did, it would definitely be a gigachad language without doubt.
bruh, Polish has 7 (but two of them make the same sound) standard vowels (a, e, i, o, u/ó, y) and 2 nasal ones (ą, ę), but they are always short, that's why the language may sound vowelless for some people.
We also have palatal consonants which is quite unique I believe and foreigners sometimes seem to struggle to feel a difference between palatal consonants and "hard" ones (ś vs sz, ć vs cz, ź vs ż, dź vs dż) if you know what I mean
To explain how hard those consonants are when you wrote at the end “vs” I thought it was one of them

Persian is different than Farsi, the Arabs started to document and use the Arabic script only when Islam came along. Then it was introduced to the Persian and they started to use the Arabic script after they became Muslim. Before that they used the Pahlavi alphabet. A lot of people thought Arabic before islam was only a spoken langueg and with the start of islam and the need of documentation, they started to write. But that's not true Arabs had almost always had a script, but thought of writing as a weakness. If you could memorize pages on pages of poetry, you wouldn't need to write down your groceries list. The Arabic script was influenced by Nabataean tribes script, and not Farsi.

*Persian* is one of the oldest spoken languages known to mankind with a record of 3500 years and the richest literary legacy in the world. It is a *classical language of antiquity* and the historical lingua franca of higher arts, culture and sciences in West, Central and South Asia.
Persian words in English include "paradise," "pyjama", "rice," "amazon," "rose," "saffron," "asparagus," "spinach," "shawl," and "pistachio."
Persian is written in the *Persian script (پ گ چ ژ).* The Persians played a crucial role in the refinement and legibility of the script by inventing accent marks. The writing system would have lacked the necessary features to accurately represent the phonetic nuances in any language without the introduction of diacritics and dots by Persians. It expanded the script's versatility, allowing for the recording of many languages, even beyond the Persianate realm.
As for language classifications, Persian is a member of the *Indo-European language family.* It shares fundamental characteristics in terms of both grammar and vocabulary with its relatives like Latin, English, French, and Russian. Words like "baradar" for brother, "madar" for mother, "pedar" for padre in Spanish (father), "dokhtar" for daughter, "to" for tu in French (you), "andar" for inter, "do" for dos in Spanish (two), "zamin" for zemĕ in Croatian and zdmyla in Russian (earth), and even "shahr" for "skaan" in Old Norse (city), show the strong and old ties of this language family.
This similarity in language is due to the *Proto-Indo-European expansion* that originated from the steppes of Central Asia, from where the customs and practices of Indo-European peoples across both Europe and Asia derive.
Also, the best writing direction is the traditional Sinitic/Japanese/Korean one -South Italy's literacy rate fell between 100 AD and 1800 AD.
In 35:16 you said that, urdu is spoken in Pakistan. Which isn't particularly true. In a lot of parts in northern India people speaks urdu. Even most of the major writers in urdu literature are from india. Oh, and also please learn bengali. If you learn Hindi it'll be so easy for you to learn bengali. It's also known as the most sweetest language in the world which is spoken in north-east india and Bangladesh.
I assume you're a Bengali lol, but that's true for almost every language that has originated from the Devnagari script (Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Nepali, Assamese, etc.)
I can completely understand that Norwegian sounds comparatively boring. The dialect of Oslo and its vicinity which is most commonly heard is positively boring; it’s roughly the oral equivalent of bokmål and in terms of American I would liken it to the general US&A accent. However, one redeeming feature of Norwegian is in my opinion the written form of nynorsk. It’s closer to old Norse than Swedish or Danish, but it appears to be dying, and I guess one would not expect otherwise. But this was presumably a good list, all things considered.
by the way, Dari is kind of the same as Farsi. People in Iran and Afghanistan can understand each other.

A native Turkish speaker that also speaks Polish here (lived in Poland for 5 years). Tbh, pronunciation is very straightforward once you learn how to pronounce each letter and the combinations. Speaking Russian is also a big bonus for you, I guess the only thing that you'll struggle with will be not messing up the conjugations etc (for example, for singular 1st person conjugation, unlike Russian it wouldn't be ю sound but ę, or -am). That's what my native Russian speaker friends were struggling with.
*Hungarian:* is hard, has many cases, has vowel harmony → Dogwater.
*Finnish:* the same, but maybe a bit easier → Alpha. 🤔😅
Finnish language sounds interesting. It has a rythm that makes it unique and funny. I'm not sure that do I actually like it or just find it strange. 😅 Maybe one day - if I'll be still interested -, _maybe_ I'll start to learn it.
Now I learn Slovak from videos. I have no other reason to learn it, just because it sounds good. ❤ I know, it seems ironic from a Hungarian, but it's not a joke, I do actually like that language. I think Slovak is the most beautiful slavic language. It is similar to Czech, but better. And Slovak doesn't have that strange-sounding "ř" that Czech have.
I also didn't understand his reasoning. Not to mention that a year ago he put Hungarian in the "average" category. 🤷♂
As a serb I gotta tell you that serbian is a very beautiful language. It is very close to Russian, but the vocabulary and spelling are 100x more intuitive and easy. For example, we have no vowels like Я or ё, we just have the letter "J" (й), and we combine with A to create "Ja" or "Јо". Serbian is a phonetic language, which means that if you learn the alphabet, you will know how to read the language. We also have no symbols such as ь or "ы" in our cyrillic alphabet. We simply combined the letters Н and Л with ь to create "Љ" and "Њ" (Ly, Ny) If you like russian but hate the grammar, you should definitely learn serbian, but if you don't want to learn cyrillic, you don't have to, you can just learn our modified latin alphabet which isn't even hard (everyone on the internet uses the latin alphabet for serbian, only hard nationalists and institutions use cyrillic). It's a shame they don't have it on duolingo, even though over 20 million people speak it.
Serbian language is considered a bit more difficult than Russian, although it's easier to read it due to its phonetic nature... When it comes to pronunciation -- for a lot of people Russian is actually easier as it is softer and has less consonants than Serbian + Serbian has more accents.
By the way, Ukrainian is closer to Serbian than Russian
Для иностранцев может и легче, но мне, как русскому человеку, довольно непривычно видеть все эти слова на латинице с кучей букв, как бывает в том же польском, хотя Сербский в этом плане действительно приятнее и понятнее других
As a native speaker of hungarian, romanian, slovakian, croatian, serbian and Siriusian, and as also a fluent speaker of AASL, I just want to thank you for not learning hungarian, since you'd probably end up butchering it up more than AASL, but you had the audacity to speak 2 words of the universal language of the Sirius constellation as an american, which is rightfully punishable by 8 death sentences and 5 years of speaking norwegian, but I've pardoned you on the basis that you moved it up a tier, and confessed your human weakness of being unable to learn hungarian, so your sentence has been lowered to a 250 year ban on space travel.
As an romanian i approve. Our language sounds really nice to other people who are not romanians (at least from my opinion).

So there’s multiple scripts that come to Hebrew. There is print, which is probably what you see most the time. But most people write in handwritten script, while our italics are written in Rashi script.
Hebrew wasn’t really a dead language, however it was mostly used for writing to other Jews around the world as well as used as a scholarly language. However, many texts were also written in Aramaic.
Calling it a dead isn’t that fair because it was still spoken and read, however diasporic languages were used more often as a halfway point between Hebrew and the surrounding language in the diaspora.
Is anybody else Greek like me?
Love how he says "american alphabet" instead of Latin, truly a gringo moment
I'm glad to see Swedish finally getting some recognition!
Of course there are a lot of foreign words that doesn't exist or no exact or close translation in Tagalog so we use the American words usually for example. BUT Filipinos are just too lazy to use their native words for specific things in daily conversation and I blame the education system and the media because of that. Spoken Modern Tagalog mostly in the capital region is a dogwater. But Tagalog in poetry, music and literature is an absolute Gigachad.
Cantonese is spoken in most of southern China: HK, Macao, Guangdong, etc. Besides, most of the pre-1990s diaspora is Cantonese-speaking.
Afrikaans is basically a variant of Dutch but with its own orthography. It's like Qiébequois written differently from French.
As a Norwegian it is so funny to me that danish is always so high and Norwegian is so low when Norwegian is basically danish with a reasonable pronunciation. Haha. Keep at it, you gigachad
Nah. Danish has some of the declension kept. But their way of pronunciation makes me WTFing.
after i learn ruski im doing georgian sounds amazing and and one of the best looking alphabets amharic also looks amazing and greek is definitely also gigachad

AASL should have it's own tier list
The Vietnamese Ư is actually quite similar to the Ы so the correct pronunciation of "Tôi đến từ Mỹ" would be "Toy den tы mi" minus the tones (the ô and ê are pronounced like the Spanish o and e)
Omg you love Aimer, that’s the most gigachad thing you’ve ever said. As always your muscles are blinding me ✨
Je trouve les videos de cet homme magnifique très amusant a regarder. Je sais bien Mon Adhd s'est hiberné pendent la duration longue du vidéo.
For the people o don't understand portuguese, portuguese from Brazil sounds like Spanish but if you ear portuguese from Portugal it's sounds like Russian, we have a more strong voice
Какое же ахуенное начало с базированной песни
"El italiano es español, pero con vocabulario francés"
Español: Gato
Italiano: Gatto
Francés: Chat 😃
En mi opinión parece português con pronunciación español.
@@isaaceiffe7383 Es más parecido al español que al portugués, pero sí que es cierto que hay cosas que hacen que parezca más portugués que español, como por ejemplo, el verbo "hacer", en portugués "fazer" y en italiano "fare", o la conjunción "pero", en portugués "mas/porem" y en italiano "ma"
si vous regardez la majorités des mots sons plus similaires en français et italien que l'Italien et l'Éspagnol
@@javierhillier4252 Ya, es cierto, pero tampoco es apropiado decir que "Es vocabulario francés" porque hay palabras que en francés son totalmente diferentes, pero que en español e italiano son prácticamente las mismas. Yo si escucho eso, entendería como que el español e italiano apenas tienen vocabulario similar, lo que tampoco es cierto, solo tienen un 7% de diferencia de similitud léxica.
@@ivanovichdelfin8797je dirais que les mots ont espagnol et italien ont changé moins qu'on français
dude, language simp's "младшая сестра" cover is fire
We all secretly know British is the most gigichad language of all time.
Fun stream! I feel validated that the languages that I've studied placed so highly or were given respect.
Мне интересно, почему он не понравилось британско-английского языка?
Ни одной сказали слова про британского.
Классный ролик, русский в душе 😊
It feels great to hear someone talk positively about Arabic language
شكرًا جزيلًا من العاصمة العراقية بغداد 🇮🇶❤️🇵🇸
I managed to not notice your eye thing until this video.
Your Greek is not as good as some of the other languages I've heard you speak, but it's understandable & grammatically correct. Also your accents are way above average for an American.
Portuguese is the best romance language and romance languages are the best family of languages.
I agree, pretty complete.
I find European Portuguese really ugly, the one in Brasil is a bit better though. The only Romance language I would call pretty is Italian, I guess, although far from exciting.
@@withoutshadowww same
Portuguese is beautiful! ❤
Hebrew sounds that way because ח used to make its own sound (the same sound as خ) but in Modern Hebrew it became identical to כ, which produces the sound you're noticing. So it appears twice as much as it originally did (actually, ח is more common than כ, so it might be as much as three times).
norwegian should be in average with swedish, they're almost exactly the same, in fact norwegian has an even more bouncy and unique sound to it.
When tier list for writing systems?
I’m getting back into language content after a long break and holy shit I can’t believe this is how I found out that laoshu died
Somaliland isn't recognized by any country, but it is very independent. I think it even has it's own elections but i'm not completely sure.
You should learn Serbo Croatian, it’s written in both Latin and Cyrillic alphabets and it unlocks more countries than Slovenian
Why did you k*ll 8,000 peaceful muslim bosnians in Srebrenica?
For Hungarian vibes you should watch a movie called Taxidermy
i love how he says hi on russian first of all
That arabic talk though
Dude is a legend
Best dialect to speak is the بلاد الشام dialect everyone can understand ,but u sadly cant understand most other dialects
If you're learning a Turkic language, go for Kyrgyz! Sounds militaristic as heck, exactly what I picture when I think of pre-Anatolian Turks. Kind of 'purer' Turkish.
Aren't all Kipchak languages (Kyrgyz, Kazakh, Tatar, Bashkir etc) sound like that?
Português Gigachad, um abraço do Brasil 😮😮❤❤
Eu estou aprendendo português e eu gosto muito dele! Acho que é muito lindo.
@@isaaceiffe7383 Que legal, é um orgulho para nós falantes de português! Bons estudos para você!
Дора - Младшая Сестра (perfect song)
how often do you stream? I missed this one but I want to see the next one. Good that you put Danish above Swedish and Norwegian
Arabic and japanese just sound heavenly 🥶
Japanese sounds like the language spoken by little demonic goblins
ДОРА в начале видео, мужик ты просто гигачад
Если ставишь украинский и русский вместе, то не забывай белорусский =)
Lol his spanish was such a relaxed and over comfortable accent.. its perfect
You're right about us hungarians cuz one Word has like 72 diffrent forms😅
Vietnamese also gets points for being 99.9% canonical tone (no tone sandhi basically)
