As a bilingual, i can confirm that real-time translation of thoughts in one language to words of another occupies a pretty significant chunk of our computation power. Man just needed to free up RAM
as a monolingual (who's prob too late to learn another language), does it get easier over time? I have no doubt that doing such a thing would require significant computational power regardless, but does it ever reach a point where you could speak in the second language and it not really take a toll on your thought processes? I imagine it would at some point, tho probably not for a looooong time.
@@ActuallyNTiX Yeah, it does get easier, (Me, a person who accidentally made my second language better than my first one lol) Btw, I speak English and Chinese Learned Chinese first
@@ActuallyNTiXyes it gets easier once you get the hang of the lanague and i have found that my thoughts switch between english and my native lanague pretty easily unless it's one of the harder/weirder words. Starting to learn a different lanague after the natural learning phase for lanagues is pretty hard but if you got the motivation you should just try.
@@ActuallyNTiXit does, as someone who speaks 3 languages but only started learning the second at the age of 7 I can think in any of them, so no translation needed.
Honestly this just shows how talented you are at explaining concepts in your non-native tongue, because you're having to multitask on translation and on maths at the same time.
Not everyone bilingual who teaches in a second language is significantly less fluent in it than their native tongue. BPRP sounds like someone who's already pretty good at English and doesn't need to manually translate everything in his head from Chinese like a less proficient speaker would.

So interestingly because language and calculations use different parts of the brain, even fluent speakers will often perform mathematics better in their own language as they are not having to engage two separate parts of the brain, with native language calculations being more easy to perform than having to translate
this is so true. i took all my classes in highschool in english despite not being a native english speaker. when i listened to teachers online do math in my native tongue i instantly understood what i could not for a solid year or two. i am fluent in english and have no problems using it in any circumstances, but math is an exception. the second i have to do even the most basic math i revert back to turkish lol
probably even if it uses different parts, the human mind as a singular cannot 100% keep up with working both at the same time all the time, at some point the mind gets tired of thinking in oyher language and calculating at the same time
Thats so relatable. Like youre doing some complex stuff like the cross product of a R3 but then theres a point of counting basic square root but you need to check the factors
i learn two languages, english and german, and though i can almost fluently speak at english, it is easier for me to count in german, even though i know that language worse than english. So i guess it is just something wrong with english numbers.
@@крис-ирис mate, German numbers are crap 😅 I hate the way it‘s counted “backwards” for certain parts of numbers. I propose we just start to call e.g. 48 “Vierzig-acht” or “vierzig und acht”! Honestly, I feel like whenever we all stick to our own stuff just because it’s old or “that’s how we do it” even though it is weird or - if rationally approached - criticizable, I can’t really complain about, for instance, Americans and their metric ignorance and just sticking to their Narnia-units or when people get ultra defensive about insane customs or traditions!
@@TomJakobW bro i just constanted the fact, that it is easier for me to count in german, even though i know that language worse, i said about english numbers just because the video and the commentary is about people NOT using english nummerals for counting, i did not seriously say that english nummerals are bad or smtn why do you trying to prove something to me
I can always count faster in my native language (sometimes I don't even say the whole word) but when some joker nearby starts spouting random numbers in an attempt to throw me off, I immediately switch to my second language. It throws the joker for a loop, plus allows me to continue easily bc I'm no longer using the same language as the person trying to distract me.
Too funny, I'm bilingual and whenever I feel lost or overwhelmed I also immediately switch back to my native language so I can think better. It's like my brain is taking the shortcut just so I can put all my focus onto the problem instead and not worry about language.
I know your feeling, as I always struggle on simple arithmetic. For example, Factorize x² + 2x + 1 - _take 1 second_ Calculate 123 × 456 - _take more than 1 minute_ (without a calculator) (Btw, to check if 4 divides 76, I usually check 76 - 40 = 36. Since 36 mod 4 = 0, 76 is divisible by 4)
I usually just step it up to the nearest x × 10/20/... (which is 80 here) and going down, subtract it by x while counting how much subtraction I need to reach the value. 80-4 = 76 ----------------- 4 × 20 = 80 -> 4 × 19 = 76
Reminds me of my own Chinese math teacher in secondary school 😂 he was teaching us 3 digit multiplication and he was getting it wrong, we could see it. He looked at the board and just went "tiew nya ma chao hai" 😂 I'll never forget it
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, it goes to his head. If you talk to him in his mother tongue, he gets 100% on his calculus test" - nelson mandela probably
Idk in high school my Spanish teacher always said that the way we process language is different than the way we process numbers… She said that’s why she can’t do any math in English, but speaks so fluently you couldn’t tell that she wasn’t a native English speaker
This is good for beginner Chinese learners because he mostly says numbers and "為什麼。。然後。。“ 😭 (edit: I believe he said "為什麼沒有化解" "why is it not resolved?") (edit two: it's actually 化簡 (simplify) not 化解(dissolve/defuse))
That’s indeed why I clicked on this as a mandarin student lmao 😂 😭 , trying to practice active listening. SO satisfying when you get to undertand in real time what you’ve learned TT
The exceptions are pretty cool too! It’s a tell of what language their teacher spoke when teaching them that particular type of math, so it can be really insightful into someone’s past. Some people grew up speaking one language at home and with friends but get placed in a school system that doesn’t speak their native language, so they learn math in a different language than the one they feel most comfortable speaking in an everyday context. Or you might meet someone who always does their multiplication tables in one language, but if they’re trying to remember how to calculate volume or talk about statistics always have to swap to a second language. The person most likely learned simple arithmetic in a completely different language environment than they learned formulas for geometry or terms related to statistics, so they’ve probably had some big lifestyle changes that they had to adjust to midway through childhood. (I am both of these examples lol)
@@JoeyEssays Counter counterpoint: that is what the previous commenter said. Your school is not every school, you and your classmates are not every multilingual person. Y'all fall in the almost. They ain't saying it is not possible, just not universal 🌌
it's so obvious in hindsight though especially when you try to learn a new language; it's always a matter of translating that new language into your native language to make sense of it
Interestingly that is not true. I find myself thinking in English more than my native language. It's a matter of how you learn the language. For instance I could never imagine myself thinking about grammar and translation in every sentence, yet I know some people that speak fluently while thinking that way.
@@__lasevix_ my thoughts seems to be mixed, aparrently I think more in English when I am alone, but with people nearby Mostly in my native language, I suppose. But that's probably matter of habit as well, I barely know enough japanese To make a decently long sentence, but a lot of words kind of just invades my brain.
I'm dyscalculic but I can perfectly understand the way you switched from English to Chinese 😂 I talk in Filipino too when I'm trying to figure something out ❤
As someone supposed to be fluent in English I switch back to french when I need to do math. Math is hard, doing it in a foreign language is adding a layer of difficulty ! Trying to explain it in english too is just even more admirable !!
I read an article that they fundamentally teach math differently in French, because at higher levels they want abstract(very veeeeery high level) mathematicians, so they put way more emphasis on high level abstract math idk what it’s even called but that’s probably why i can’t find the article anymore lolll
i suck at doing math in my head. always second guessing myself. gotten to a point where i just round and estimate everything bc i can't be bothered anymore and don't have to be precise.
Not all Chinese people are great at math. He just happens to be great at math and Chinese. He’s not great at math bc he is Chinese. This comment has stereotyping undertones
@@mx.chi2 my guy not all stereotypes are negative. And it's not wrong to say most chinese immigrants are draw to higher echelons of academia - they study hard. Its the later generations raised in the west that are dumb like their white and black counterparts
It takes a lot to speak a foreign language....are you saying he’s supposed to be able to do complex math and always speak in a non native tongue...or it’s an extra hard problem vs us having neurons that fire faster for things we are more accustomed too like our first language? If you don’t know as much English, why would want to ramble in it and make life hard for yourself? He’s not teaching then but talking out loud and thinking...ignorance isn’t cute

Good one
So interestingly because language and calculations use different parts of the brain, even fluent speakers will often perform mathematics better in their own language as they are not having to engage two separate parts of the brain, with native language calculations being more easy to perform than having to translate
this is so true. i took all my classes in highschool in english despite not being a native english speaker. when i listened to teachers online do math in my native tongue i instantly understood what i could not for a solid year or two. i am fluent in english and have no problems using it in any circumstances, but math is an exception. the second i have to do even the most basic math i revert back to turkish lol
I don't even need calculations to do that. When I'm reading a text in english and there's numbers in a sentence reading the number part in hungarian
probably even if it uses different parts, the human mind as a singular cannot 100% keep up with working both at the same time all the time, at some point the mind gets tired of thinking in oyher language and calculating at the same time
I don't know why this was recommended to me but i needed it today haha, thanks mate
Thats so relatable. Like youre doing some complex stuff like the cross product of a R3 but then theres a point of counting basic square root but you need to check the factors
I didn't stop understanding him when he started speaking in Chinese. I already couldn't understand him when he was talking Maths.
Bro went to default settings.
I feel this lmao. 76 is one of those weird numbers that makes you rethink your whole solution because it feels like you did something wrong lmao
I respect anyone that can do complex math like this in their heads.
My wife is super expatriated but switches back to German for counting. I think numbers are always easier in your mother language.
i learn two languages, english and german, and though i can almost fluently speak at english, it is easier for me to count in german, even though i know that language worse than english. So i guess it is just something wrong with english numbers.
@@крис-ирис mate, German numbers are crap 😅
I hate the way it‘s counted “backwards” for certain parts of numbers. I propose we just start to call e.g. 48 “Vierzig-acht” or “vierzig und acht”! Honestly, I feel like whenever we all stick to our own stuff just because it’s old or “that’s how we do it” even though it is weird or - if rationally approached - criticizable, I can’t really complain about, for instance, Americans and their metric ignorance and just sticking to their Narnia-units or when people get ultra defensive about insane customs or traditions!
@@TomJakobW bro i just constanted the fact, that it is easier for me to count in german, even though i know that language worse, i said about english numbers just because the video and the commentary is about people NOT using english nummerals for counting, i did not seriously say that english nummerals are bad or smtn why do you trying to prove something to me
Meanwhile I use Norwegian and English numbers interchangeably because they are very similar.
I can always count faster in my native language (sometimes I don't even say the whole word) but when some joker nearby starts spouting random numbers in an attempt to throw me off, I immediately switch to my second language. It throws the joker for a loop, plus allows me to continue easily bc I'm no longer using the same language as the person trying to distract me.
Jokes aside that marker switching with one hand at the beginning was tuff as freak

Too funny, I'm bilingual and whenever I feel lost or overwhelmed I also immediately switch back to my native language so I can think better. It's like my brain is taking the shortcut just so I can put all my focus onto the problem instead and not worry about language.
having done some programming i totally felt the internal panic when you finally plug everything in and it doesnt look like its supposed to
I just watched a man do math I don't understand and get so confused he reverts to Chinese to clear things up, for 84 seconds.
Worth.
no matter where you are and what level of math you're doing, this is so relatable!

As a multilingual person. I can confirm I always switch to my loaded artillery of Hindi swears 😂
bro questioned his entire career for a sec
I know your feeling, as I always struggle on simple arithmetic. For example,
Factorize x² + 2x + 1 - _take 1 second_
Calculate 123 × 456 - _take more than 1 minute_ (without a calculator)
(Btw, to check if 4 divides 76, I usually check 76 - 40 = 36. Since 36 mod 4 = 0, 76 is divisible by 4)
I usually just step it up to the nearest x × 10/20/... (which is 80 here) and going down, subtract it by x while counting how much subtraction I need to reach the value.
80-4 = 76
-----------------
4 × 20 = 80 -> 4 × 19 = 76
I usually just divide by 2 twice to check if it's divisible by 4 lol.
76 / 2 = 38, since last digit 8 is even then it divisible by 2 --> whole number is divisible by 4
Or you could just see if the result is even if you divide by 2
No way bro is memorizing coding functions to divide.
When he switches to chinese, It's over
No, it's just debug mode. It's really over when he switches to Finnish curses.
Reminds me of my own Chinese math teacher in secondary school 😂 he was teaching us 3 digit multiplication and he was getting it wrong, we could see it. He looked at the board and just went "tiew nya ma chao hai" 😂 I'll never forget it

This is good for beginner Chinese learners because he mostly says numbers and "為什麼。。然後。。“ 😭

(edit two: it's actually 化簡 (simplify) not 化解(dissolve/defuse))
"Why。。then。。"
That’s indeed why I clicked on this as a mandarin student lmao 😂 😭 , trying to practice active listening. SO satisfying when you get to undertand in real time what you’ve learned TT

Always satisfying to see curvature calculated using the cross product for vector functions in 3D. Great work! :v

When your math opponent starts speaking Chinese, all limiters are disabled and the real showdown begins.
Fun fact: almost everyone can really only do math in their native language, and is one of the most reliable tells of what a persons native language is
not necessarily true, I can do math in English just fine
The exceptions are pretty cool too! It’s a tell of what language their teacher spoke when teaching them that particular type of math, so it can be really insightful into someone’s past.
Some people grew up speaking one language at home and with friends but get placed in a school system that doesn’t speak their native language, so they learn math in a different language than the one they feel most comfortable speaking in an everyday context.
Or you might meet someone who always does their multiplication tables in one language, but if they’re trying to remember how to calculate volume or talk about statistics always have to swap to a second language. The person most likely learned simple arithmetic in a completely different language environment than they learned formulas for geometry or terms related to statistics, so they’ve probably had some big lifestyle changes that they had to adjust to midway through childhood.
(I am both of these examples lol)

Lowkey want to go back to the time when that whiteboard wouldn't have meant anything to me
I read somewhere that we always "think" in our native language and it was a very weird realisation at the time.
it's so obvious in hindsight though especially when you try to learn a new language; it's always a matter of translating that new language into your native language to make sense of it
Interestingly that is not true. I find myself thinking in English more than my native language. It's a matter of how you learn the language. For instance I could never imagine myself thinking about grammar and translation in every sentence, yet I know some people that speak fluently while thinking that way.
The default thought language changes if you live a few years in a different country, I drift between the two now
@@randomt800kiddo2It's not true. You can get to the point when you can think in foreign language.
@@__lasevix_ my thoughts seems to be mixed, aparrently I think more in English when I am alone, but with people nearby
Mostly in my native language, I suppose. But that's probably matter of habit as well, I barely know enough japanese
To make a decently long sentence, but a lot of words kind of just invades my brain.
the fact that i can understand this now makes me happy
can we just take a moment to appreciate how clean the marker switch is. that shits like a call of duty switch 💀
the sound of the marker hitting the white board and his voice are weirdly calming
I'm dyscalculic but I can perfectly understand the way you switched from English to Chinese 😂 I talk in Filipino too when I'm trying to figure something out ❤
This is the equivalent of turning off the radio to focus on driving
That pen color switch is very nice 👌🏻
As someone supposed to be fluent in English I switch back to french when I need to do math.
Math is hard, doing it in a foreign language is adding a layer of difficulty !
Trying to explain it in english too is just even more admirable !!
I read an article that they fundamentally teach math differently in French, because at higher levels they want abstract(very veeeeery high level) mathematicians, so they put way more emphasis on high level abstract math idk what it’s even called but that’s probably why i can’t find the article anymore lolll
Watching a human free up disk space to focus on another task is funny to watch.
i suck at doing math in my head. always second guessing myself. gotten to a point where i just round and estimate everything bc i can't be bothered anymore and don't have to be precise.
so you have promoted yourself to statistics?

It takes a lot to speak a foreign language....are you saying he’s supposed to be able to do complex math and always speak in a non native tongue...or it’s an extra hard problem vs us having neurons that fire faster for things we are more accustomed too like our first language? If you don’t know as much English, why would want to ramble in it and make life hard for yourself? He’s not teaching then but talking out loud and thinking...ignorance isn’t cute
@@Nothereforit174 They are joking :) There is a well known stereotype, that as all stereotypes, is not true but a vague generalization. They are saying that they know the math is difficult because he has been doing the work to speak in English AND solving the problem until then. Is not an attack, I believe :) the man on the video is just really impressive!
He’s not even Chinese though
It has the same vibes with
