OH MY GOD! it's not just about the fact that you are extremely intelligent but I also really admire how you designed your life to achieve what you want in life and worked so hard for it to come true. Even now, in your retirement, you are still working hard, pursuing your passion and keeping sharing knowledge and inspiring us. Thank you so much Professor❤
Thank you so much for your support. You know that kind of appreciation is what inspires me to share the knowledge and experience I have gained over the past 5 decades.
You are such an inspirational person, Tim. I started this year with Italian and German. I'm waiting for my assignment on a cruise ship, and learning new languages is an opportunity for me to get to know new people, new cultures, and different ways of seeing the world
WOW, I even looked into working on a cruise ship since for me it can be a linguistic and cultural playground. That is so cool to pursue your dreams like that. Keep me updated ok?
@@polyglotdreamsI know English, Hindi and Spanish very well and some Arabic and Mandarin can I get a job in cruise

Tim, thanks for this great stories. Reminds me a lot of Lehmann's stories by Siegfried Lenz, "So schön war mein Markt." Really inspiring, if you keep this up, you will become a TH-cam star as well as a Polyglot star ;-)
Bloody hell, mate. When we met about 4 years ago, you totally stunned me and my girlfriend with your linguistic abilities. Now, in 2023 you continue to do it, due to the jobs you were able to land in your life. Amazing.
You are such an inspiration for aspiring polyglots... But living in eastern Europe, not being a native english speaker ( and not having an US salary to start with, just to travel) , it's a bit harder...
Thank you so much for joining us here. I understand that I was blessed with certain advantages when I started my journey. Nevertheless, I hope you can see that overcoming obstacles will just make you stronger.

Impresionante. Qué emocionante escuchar su historia. Actualmente estoy emprendiendo mi camino hacia convertirme en políglota y escuchar su historia me motiva sobremanera. Le reconozco con mucho respeto y admiración y agradezco que nos pueda compartir su historia de vida en números. Saludos desde México.
Muchas gracias por tu comentario tan amable. Me alegra mucho saber que mi historia te ha inspirado en tu camino para convertirte en políglota. Es un viaje desafiante pero muy gratificante, y estoy seguro de que con dedicación y pasión, alcanzarás tus metas.
This story is like an adventure novel. An ordinary family man would be able to work in a hotel or at best earn money by translating. You have a fun life.
sir, only one thing I didnt understand much. You had worked in normal jobs and then how became a professor? dont need exam or study etc?? did you just apply?
Sorry, I couldn't explain everything in just one video. I studied at 8 universities and have a PhD. The universities were in the USA, Colombia, Switzerland, Poland, Japan, and Australia. Thus, I used a variety of languages for study purposes too.
I got to Japan after living in South America and Western & Eastern Europe. I clicked with the culture there and got a great job at KSU university later in life so wound up staying there for 42 years and became a Japanese citizen.
Oh, that is such a clickbait title! But I really appreciate your story. It sounds like it was not all about the Benjamins anyway, but the experiences and the people. I am fascinated by languages and love to learn about them, but my self-consciousness stops me from conversing in another language. Watching you makes me want to break through.
great i don't know how much i earned with learning languages .but i do know that i saved a lot of money by being able to read reviews in multiple languages and finding out that the products i was about to buy were bad or overpriced. and i also go to Germany often since everything is much cheaper in that country compared to my country .and no offence to Germans but most of them don't know a word of English or other languages so you really need to know german if you want to get stuff done over there without issues .sometimes i can find foreign language versions of movies and books for free or cheap too .
U are Sir very smar man I'm admire. I really want to learn one/two language good... But i don't have good memories. (You see what i writen). I'm glad with i can find this channel and i am really sad when i see and my brain speak to me "You are never half language how this men". Forgive my bad language and gramatic but sometimes i try to use this language.
Yes, it is possible. Some non-native speakers do better than some natives There is no single representative of a native speaker. Clearly, there are differences in ability among natives
@@polyglotdreams Let me mention that I've searched Internet and can't find a business that makes made to order polyglot templates. I've been studying French Norwegian Chinese Vietnamese Tagalog Portuguese Spanish Russian Polish for a while. I've started making my own polyglot template with main words etc. However, since I do not use a computer, this will obviously take a long time. Thank you for asking.
@@polyglotdreams Again, Thanks for asking. I've decided to do it myself. The way that I want it organized. About 8,000 words per language for 8 or so languages should keep me busy for a few years. I just think that it is a missed opportunity that a polyglot chart/template business is not easily found in an Internet search. Again, Thank you for asking.

Tell me in 1000 ways I've been through nothing. Huge respect!
Thanks so much
Wow that's amazing! Now I feel extremely inspired to go back to my notes and keep on studying languages. Thank you for this video
Fantastic! Your reaction is exactly what I was hoping for.

Wow, Tim, you are truely legend! What a life you have lived!
I thank you for your kind comment 🙏 learning languages can truly enrich our lives.
I love this guy so much, he is so genuine, love his job and generally good at it too.
Finally I have found someone that speaks in my language ^_^
Thanks so much
This is a great topic, I have experienced some of the advantages of be a multilingual person it helps a lot.
Yes, I agree, I cannot imagine not experiencing a multilingual and multicultural life.
Very beautiful thank you for your many wise words :)

Do you know where they sell polyglot made to order word charts. Easier than having to do it oneself.
