Lol! Years ago, when I was doing home care for an elderly Polish lady, she once asked me to help her change her wifi password, to keep a neighbor out of it... I suggested that she use a Polish word, since the neighbor didn't speak Polish. Since this was a long time ago, and she's since passed, I can say she chose the Polish word for "open". Nice memory....

French is so easy, i spawned in Canada and easily learned it at nearly an A1 level over 12 years of learning it in school. I can sometimes remember how to say a whole sentence!
It is strange because as a native French I think English is way easier, and that Spanish is basically French but A instead of E and easier, how is French easy ?
It's almost arabic if you ask me, like i could literally understand so much of what they are saying just by being a native Arabic speaker. I checked maltese's tenses, and once again very close to arabic

I'm gonna be moving to norway this year, I literally don't know a single word of the language, but when I get there, I hope to learn it. And hopefully a random weird dialect.

Dutch is literally one of the prettiest languages ever created with perfect words and sounds, and most speakers of Dutch use soft Gs and medium Gs, only in Amsterdam the harder Gs are used a lot, and Swedish is totally not prettier than Norwegian, Swedish is one of the least prettier Nordic languages, though it is still pretty, while Norwegian Bokmål has the best spelling / aspect, definitely better looking than both Swedish and Danish spelling, and, Icelandic is definitely the most feminine (but also the most masculine) language ever, just like Norse and English and Dutch, these four languages all sound the most feminine when spoken by speakers with higher voices that are naturally pretty and light, and they also sound the most alpha and the most masculine when spoken by speakers with deeper voices, having the coolest and the most modern pronunciation rules, and Danish also, and the pronunciation rules are definitely better in Danish than in Norwegian and Swedish, but they are easier in Norwegian, so Norwegian and Icelandic and Norse are great options to start with, and I highly recommend learning all, I am already advanced level in Norwegian and very close to advanced level in Icelandic (upper intermediate level, and also in Norse and German) and upper advanced level in Dutch, which is definitely the easiest language or one of the easiest languages to learn for English speakers, and I highly recommend using the soft G and the soft normal R + the Americanized R aka de gooise R which have the best and most refined sound! Also, the harsh Hs in Arabic are way harsher than the hard Gs used in Dutch, and unlike Dutch, which has all sorts of Gs from the softest to the hardest G, Arabic has no soft H versions, and Arabic isn’t a pretty language as it only has a few pretty words, maybe ten to twenty percent of the words, while most words are just neutral, so it’s an avrg language, same as Polish and Russian and Bulgarian etc! Slovene is definitely the prettiest and most refined Slavic language, Hungarian is a pretty language that’s a way better option than Turkish (as it has the good sounds and the good letter combinations and the good pretty word endings found in Turkish, minus the non-pretty ones, plus Hungarian has a way lighter spelling and a very organized aspect, having been influenced a lot by Germanic languages, so if one is thinking about learning Turkish, one should definitely learn Hungarian instead of Turkish) and, the prettiest Latin languages are Galician / Brazilian Portuguese / Gallo and Occitan and Latin are also real pretty and are even prettier than Spanish and Italian and French etc!
Around 4:23 is very incorrect, it’s not a Latin language at all, not even true Slavic, and it is one of the most non-pretty and uncouth looking / sounding languages ever with embarrassingly funny sounding words and word endings, totally not an Alpha language, it’s as non-pretty as Indian languages and Japanese and African languages lol, and, the most accurate classification would be Thracian-Aslavic or something similar, technically those groups of languages were made by greek dudes and dudes that moved away from Greece, so it has a lot more similarities with Greek and languages such as Bulgarian and Serbian and Albanian! So it doesn’t even belong on the same list with perfect and amazing languages such as the Germanic languages and the modern Celtic languages and the Latin languages and Slovene and Hungarian (these ones are the real pretty languages) and, Finnish / Latvian / Estonian, which also have mostly pretty words and nice word endings! Germanic languages are all amazing languages, with Icelandic / Norse / English / Dutch / Norwegian / Danish being the best ever, so they are all great options, and I am learning them all, and am learning 15+ languages at the moment and mostly prioritizing Icelandic and Norse and Welsh over the past few weeks!

Honestly, if you buy both the French and Spanish expansion packs you automatically get all the romance languages DLC with the exception of Romanian, which is a great deal for anyone who wants to learn romance languages.
as someone who has been lucky enough to spawn with the dracula perk, and have enough time to learn frog language, i can similarly attest that italian and spanish feel somewhat uninteresting to me, as most of the learning process was skipped i love how both sound, it's just that instead of learning conjugations, usually all i need to do is ask them to repeat and pay attention to their hand gestures there are also personal reasons of course, as all of them seem to constantly confuse me for a truck driver or a strawberry picker or what they call an egyptian and mostly teach me the curse words anyway, to triangulate all romance languages i recommend either three of them or two that are far apart, preferably portuguese and romanian, but once again i may be biased i am personally looking forward maybe to studying portuguese and finally receiving my tunic and toga virilis together with my roman empire citizenship
@@anires1195 I never said you would be able to speak all other romance languages, I was saying there is a high enough mutual intelligibility rate for you to speak Spanish and/or French to any other romance language speaker and for them to reply in their native language while understanding each other perfectly. Plus, German is a Germanic language, Spanish and French aren’t. English is a Germanic language too but it goes without saying that it’s very different from other languages in its linguistic family. I speak German too and I actually started learning it as my 5th language (previously spoke Spanish, English, French and Guarani) and I found it hard as fuck, but it made other Germanic languages easier to learn.
@@aiocafea I’m surprised Spanish speakers understand you at all! I’m a native Spanish speaker and before learning French I couldn’t make out a single word Frenchies were saying. Honestly, I would recommend learning Spanish, French and Romanian to round up all Romance languages, and I say Spanish instead of Portuguese because Spanish is almost 100% mutually intelligible with Portuguese and it shares more linguistic aspects with other Iberian languages than Portuguese does, plus we have more speakers so it’s easier to communicate with more people if you speak Spanish (you would be able to communicate with Spanish speakers as a Portuguese speaker but obviously their first language is better), as you would potentially be learning the language not only to understand other Romance language speakers but to speak to the natives too!

I don't speak Arabic and don't have plans to speak it, but it belongs in a tier above gigachad reserved only for itself. Hardest language to learn, unlocks huge PLC, by far most beautiful language, by far most beautiful script. From a pure language standpoint Arabic is unchallenged.
I'm learning Russian (beginner), Spanish (beginner), French (intermediate) & Swedish (intermediate) and Duolingo has been very helpful but obviously it's not sufficient but there's so many free resources online that it's actually fun to learn a language nowadays thanks to technology. Arabic & Mandarin frighten me. Respect to anyone who's learning those languages.
@@charleswhitefullbusteruchi1972 Well it depends on which language you're studying but I can say that if you're for example studying Italian or can already speak Italian then you'll transition into Spanish better than most. Italian speakers usually learn Spanish faster than others.

I'm russian native, just started learning Romanian. Thanks for the bisexual compliment to the language, made me even more motivated to learn it. mulțumesc
I am currently learning Korean, Japanese and German, so far German has been surprisingly easy because of the amount of words similar to English, Korean on the other hand while the alphabet is the easiest thing I ever learned it was 3 times harder than Japanese for their words to finally start sticking in my brain, but once they did it felt so damn good.
I recommend watching kdramas I know that a lot of peaple may think it's a silly way but believe me the words will stuck in your head and not just that but also with the way native speakers say it and it will also help you differentiate between the formal way of speaking and the casual way
I also studied those three languages at some point. Got a C1 in German and an N1 in Japanese, but I had to give up on Korean. No matter what I did, I never could learn any vocabulary. It just didn't sound like anything to me. The only words I could somewhat remember, all had Chinese origins and probably only stayed in my brain because of Japanese anyway.
No because I’ve spent 10x the amount on Korean and can barely say a thing, despite watching so many kdrama, listening to K-pop etc. I can speak in Japanese basically only from little Duolingo and anime watching from years ago 😭
Apparently I am learning one dogwater language (Japanese) and one gigachad language (Russian.) Feels pretty balanced if you ask me. Also, if you are serious about avoiding weeb culture, just do what I do and don't talk to anyone. It is very fun and rewarding, so don't let other people dissuade you from learning it (even if there are quite a few of them.) Anyway, good luck to everyone learning!
There's actually a bunch of communities with people learning Japanese for work or that aren't hardcore weeaboos. There's a LOT of people learning Japanese and there's no way they're all those weebs ahah. Also, most Japanese people don't even watch anime, maybe read manga, but the only people who are truly obsessed with those are the West. So there's no danger to talking with Japanese people online tbh.
Love your enthusiasim for Arabic , and it makes me proud that you are learning both Egyptian dialect and MSA , even if I wasn't an Arab native speaker I would have learned it ,fascinating culture and language ❤🙏🇪🇬🇵🇸..You sounded so alpha when pronouncing Arabic but you should work more on ح sound
I'm a Swahili teacher! I do think there is a future for Swahili. It is the largest "indigenous" African language on the continent. Many years ago when I started a Bachelor's degree in anthropology, I wouldn't have though Kiswahili is important. But since moving to East Africa, many African countries have started to teach Kiswahili in schools, hopefully as a possible lingua franca for Africa. 😊
Hindi and Urdu are mutually intelligible in the colloquial register. If you are a native/advanced speaker, you can notice a few differences. Urdu speakers will use a lot more Arabic and Persian derived words while Hindi speakers will use more Sanskrit derived words. When it comes to accent, one thing that I have noticed is that Hindi speakers pronounce 'z' or 'ز' as 'j'. For example, when saying 'Cumin', Urdu speakers say 'Zeera' while Hindi speakers say 'Jeera'. I believe the accent differences come from the different scripts that they use. Certain sounds are found in the Arabic or Nastaliq script that are not found in the Sanskrit or Devanagari script and vice versa. Of course, there might be other factors contributing to the accent differences that I don't know of.
and if u learn one, u can essentially travel all around india (except maybe south, lookin at u tamil nadu) and i assume most of pakistan and communicate with locals. dlc would include some parts of afghanistan, sri lanka, nepal and bangladesh
I've never heard Zeera honestly. Maybe it's not that pervasive and only a few people pronounce it like that. But it reminds me of a chemistry teacher in PhysicsWallah. He is from Rajasthan, west India, and pronounces J as Z. Like he says Zo instead of Jo(which). Maybe it's not about Hindi/Urdu but I'm not sure. People from different regions have different pronounciations.
@@monudey118 Being born and raised in an Urdu speaking family, i see a lot of differences in the pronunciations of certain words which I believe are due to the linguistic differences throughout the subcontinent, as you mentioned i used to find it quite weird that people call 'Zeera' as 'jeera' and "Srinagar" as "Shirinagar" but all can this can be credited to the diversity in cultures and languages, which is a good thing ofc, but can be confusing sometimes. ps: ig that teacher from PW u mentioned is Mohit Dhandeech (IOC) ?
I suggest a video by this awesome channel called "India in Pixels" titled "Are Hindi and Urdu the same Language?" It's quite detailed and fun to watch !!
Nastaliq is just an arabic font there is no difference between it and arabic. Its just a prettier version of the arabic script. You can totally write farsi, arabic, dari, and urdu in nastaliq font
Italian, at least for the short time I was studying it this past summer, was incredibly easy to learn. But I may have had a slight edge since I know a bit of Spanish and have a lot of high school French. The Romance languages are easy and fun!
@cullenmatherne7382 oh sorry I wasn't clear. I'm learning this year and my trip is in 1 year from now. I've found things going quite well, but I already speak Spanish fairly well. I think it's a combination of already having learned a second language and it also being a romance language, but so far it's easier than Spanish was. One thing I noticed right away is I can spot and usually figure out grammar patterns where as with spanish I was confused a lot cause that type of thing was all new
The problem with Russian aren't really rules or grammar. It's that the grammar is extremely fluid and the proper word order is optional, but also most changes in the grammar are deliberate and actually mean something. Something you are unlikely to ever learn from a text book. It can be moderately easy to talk like a dictionary, but that's not how people actually talk. It's like yoda-speak has a meaning and a vibe in English, except in Russian there are countless yoda-speaks, and each has its own vibes and meanings, and they are switched around constantly. Because the words have declinations, most word orders will convey the basic meaning just fine regardless how jumbled the words are, and this is actually used all the time to add additional layer of meaning on top. This is something that is most naturally learned by actually talking to people in different contexts to absorb their way of speaking If you want to learn Russian to read Russian literature, that's something to keep in mind, because if you aren't living in Russia it can take you a _long_ time to know it good enough to really upgrade your comprehension of literature from what you were getting with translations. Oh, and btw those vibes were different historically. So, say, learning modern vibes will not really allow you to appreciate Bukgakov. You'd have to read a lot of Soviet literature and watch Soviet movies first. It very well may be that it in the end it may mot be worth it
@@danielsmokesmids well, maybe I was too harsh :) it depends on the goal. If you like the learning itself, it's certainly a great language for that. You can progress and progress and progress and always have something new, some new horizons. But if you want minimal effort for maximum benefit, maximum expansion of available media as quickly as possible, that's probably not the best candidate. I'd probably pick Spanish for that or something There are Russian writers that are more verbose like Tolstoy and they are more suitable for intermediate learners, but then again their translations are also decent. Bulgakov in particular translates horribly and English version of Master and Margarita is an atrocity compared to the smart light hearted brevity of the original where just a few words can create entire characters. But learning Russian up to a level to be able to fluently get that will probably take an unreasonable amount of time It's easier in the movies since intonation and emphasis make the intent obvious
As a russian native I'm curious of what you're saying. First I was gonna disagree but you seem well articulate and thorough person. Can you give me some examples of changes in the fluid grammar, yoda-speaks and the other quirks you mentioned? I also have a feeling that you got overcharmed by diversity of people's ways to speak which can be just a representation of illiterate language skills of natives. There's a such small group of people who can actually articulate their thoughts in a bookish manner. Dont worry, it doesn't sound old-fashioned, they just immediately get considered as superiors in any circle (maybe except teenagers under 15 and provincial criminals under 30). And I would say its even the easiest way to get famous in Russia - just be bookishly eloquent - and everyone simply wanna listen to you more.
And I'm surprised you find Bulgakov's language way different. I could agree if you'd say it about Dostoyevski or Chekhov, they're really nuts even for natives. But for me Bulgakov is a benchmark of actual russian. Same is about soviet period literature and movies. For me its literally modern russian excluding slang. And dont get me wrong, I'm zoomer. Btw if you interested to acquire beautiful russian I can suggest you my subjective list of writers. It's gonna be Bulgakov, Dovlatov, Gogol, early Akunin, Lermontov, Limonov. Maybe you can try Андрей Белый and his "Петербург". No need Nabokov, he's too much
When LanguageSimp says that learning Russian opens tons of DLC there is more than you think, because just inside of Russia lives dozens of nations with their unique history, traditions, culture and languages (more than hundred). So by knowing Russian you can at least have a breath touch on some of the 15 language families there.

I'm from Romania and seeing Romanian in the gigachad tier made me so happy!!! Romanian is an amazing language and i really think it deserves more appreciation.
I am Romania too but I don't see why would anyone learn our language honestly. Like our country is still pretty poor so there is no reason to move here and there are only around 25 million speakers so not that much dlc. I going to sound extremely negative with this take but I really think learning Romania is a waste of time.

Wenn Sie ein absoluter Anfanger sind, dann sollten Sie von "Natürlich German" anfangen, und nach die A1 & A2 Playlisten sollten Sie zwei oder dreimal Nicos Weg A1 anschauen (mit DEUTSCHER Untertiteln, nicht Englisch), und danach fangen Sie die Kanal "Easy German" an.

@@angie.666 Being a native Italian speaker and having studied Latin, I can't help but notice some similarities with Russian. Like, это было, она была and мы были, the endings of the verbs consist of similar letters to the ones I would have used in Italian (è stato, è stata, siamo stati). Also, possession is expressed just like it once was in Latin: 'to me is something'. Languages are so fascinating, they carry the heritage of the people who moved across the continents for thousands of years. Who knows where these similarities come from. Also, Russian is just plain out cool.
My plan for this year is to start off learning Romanian I started in December, then in March, switch and learn some portugués before I travel to Portugal in May. Then I will go back to Romanian for a bit, and learn one final language from August-December. I’ve not quite decided which one, but I’m thinking Hindi or Persian/Farsi or Maybe even Russian idk
I love your channel ! And I think Bulgarian will be my first step into the Slavic languages : it has no declinations (i like them but I prefer to remain focused on vocabulary first), it retains a definite article, it is full of foreign loanwords from English and French, it is the only language in the EU with cyrillic alphabet, so the word "euro" is also written with this alphabet on our banknotes, and I visited this beautiful country with its fast declining population 2 years ago. But now I am commited to seriously learning modern Greek, so I will wait a few years.
As a Pole, I really appreciate your love for Polish, and glad that you had a great time in Poland. Thank you for nominating Polish for the language of 2024. Kurwa.
I guess it'd be a great deal to include Bengali as one of the most spoken languages on the planet into your language list. I've been learning it for a couple of years. Compared to Hindi, there's a way more consensus on everything among the natives. At least, it seems so. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's really fascinating to watch your videos! Looking forward for the new ones. Hope you'll see my comment and embark on learning Bengali as well 🙃
It's probably the most underrated language based on how many people speak it vs the worldwide awareness of it. case in point: even this video didn't mention it despite it having a dozen times more speakers than some of the languages mentioned here.
not really, there are dialectic differences but you'll be understood everywhere if you speak Standard Bengali (which is in fact the most spoken form)@@pia_mater

After becoming intermediate at Spanish and French, I’ve decided to start learning russian. After a few months of Luodingo, I can now say sentences like: “our girls are already in the bus” and “where are our plates” (not kidding duolingo teaches the OUR form a lot, wonder why…)

As a Serbo-Slovakian I can say that I speak: Serbian, Montenegrin, Bosnian, Croatian, Slovenian, Slovakian, Czechian, German, Russian, English. I could say that I am polyglot. But I am still working on Russian and German. My mother language is Serbo-Slovakian which is spoken by about 50.000 people if it counts, it's not really a official language and there are changes with Serbo-Slovakian village to village, though it sounds nothing like Serbian or Slovakian it's a mix influenced by other languages too.
Glad to see you’ve taken Russian off your ten worst languages to learn list. I just checked out Pimsleur and I like it. It’s great that I can support your channel and get such incredible value for myself. Thanks for sharing in such an entertaining and informative way.
As a Ukrainian, finally someone actually talked about the language. And actually there's the и letter which is pretty much like the Russian ы just a little bit harsher, without the "softness"
Those are two different sounds. Ukrainian "и" sounds like [ɪ], as in English word "will". Russian "ы" sounds like [ɨ], which is not found in English. Perhaps you can't hear the difference because you are Russian-speaking? Also, Russian [ɨ] is clearly harsher.
@@danielm545 I'm a native Ukrainian and have been speaking Ukrainian since birth, and to me it sound like the complete opposite of what you're saying like compare the Russian word мыш to Ukrainian миша. To me it sounds like the Russian one is "softer" and the [I] In will sounds more like the Russian ы than the Ukrainian и at least to me

i studied mandarin for 2 semesters at uni but decided against it as i couldn't find anything to hold onto, i lost interest. now i am rediscovering chinese thanks to cantonese and am learning a bit about its rich culture. especially cantonese movies are some of the best received in china. i have also read that cantonese speakers were the first to leave china and travel the world and as such many china towns are cantonese dominated to this day. unfortunately the language seems to be dying out in the younger generations but due to the aforementioned reasons i think it is really interesting and i intend to go for it after i am satisfied with my russian skills

Dutch is literally one of the prettiest languages ever created with perfect words and sounds, and most speakers of Dutch use soft Gs and medium Gs, only in Amsterdam the harder Gs are used a lot, and Swedish is totally not prettier than Norwegian, Swedish is one of the least prettier Nordic languages, though it is still pretty, while Norwegian Bokmål has the best spelling / aspect, definitely better looking than both Swedish and Danish spelling, and, Icelandic is definitely the most feminine (but also the most masculine) language ever, just like Norse and English and Dutch, these four languages all sound the most feminine when spoken by speakers with higher voices that are naturally pretty and light, and they also sound the most alpha and the most masculine when spoken by speakers with deeper voices, having the coolest and the most modern pronunciation rules, and Danish also, and the pronunciation rules are definitely better in Danish than in Norwegian and Swedish, but they are easier in Norwegian, so Norwegian and Icelandic and Norse are great options to start with, and I highly recommend learning all, I am already advanced level in Norwegian and very close to advanced level in Icelandic (upper intermediate level, and also in Norse and German) and upper advanced level in Dutch, which is definitely the easiest language or one of the easiest languages to learn for English speakers, and I highly recommend using the soft G and the soft normal R + the Americanized R aka de gooise R which have the best and most refined sound! Also, the harsh Hs in Arabic are way harsher than the hard Gs used in Dutch, and unlike Dutch, which has all sorts of Gs from the softest to the hardest G, Arabic has no soft H versions, and Arabic isn’t a pretty language as it only has a few pretty words, maybe ten to twenty percent of the words, while most words are just neutral, so it’s an avrg language, same as Polish and Russian and Bulgarian etc! Slovene is definitely the prettiest and most refined Slavic language, Hungarian is a pretty language that’s a way better option than Turkish (as it has the good sounds and the good letter combinations and the good pretty word endings found in Turkish, minus the non-pretty ones, plus Hungarian has a way lighter spelling and a very organized aspect, having been influenced a lot by Germanic languages, so if one is thinking about learning Turkish, one should definitely learn Hungarian instead of Turkish) and, the prettiest Latin languages are Galician / Brazilian Portuguese / Gallo and Occitan and Latin are also real pretty and are even prettier than Spanish and Italian and French etc!
Around 4:23 is very incorrect, it’s not a Latin language at all, not even true Slavic, and it is one of the most non-pretty and uncouth looking / sounding languages ever with embarrassingly funny sounding words and word endings, totally not an Alpha language, it’s as non-pretty as Indian languages and Japanese and African languages lol, and, the most accurate classification would be Thracian-Aslavic or something similar, technically those groups of languages were made by greek dudes and dudes that moved away from Greece, so it has a lot more similarities with Greek and languages such as Bulgarian and Serbian and Albanian! So it doesn’t even belong on the same list with perfect and amazing languages such as the Germanic languages and the modern Celtic languages and the Latin languages and Slovene and Hungarian (these ones are the real pretty languages) and, Finnish / Latvian / Estonian, which also have mostly pretty words and nice word endings! Germanic languages are all amazing languages, with Icelandic / Norse / English / Dutch / Norwegian / Danish being the best ever, so they are all great options, and I am learning them all, and am learning 15+ languages at the moment and mostly prioritizing Icelandic and Norse and Welsh over the past few weeks!

Honestly, if you buy both the French and Spanish expansion packs you automatically get all the romance languages DLC with the exception of Romanian, which is a great deal for anyone who wants to learn romance languages.
do you think I would be really good at German if i only learned English,French,Spanish?
as someone who has been lucky enough to spawn with the dracula perk, and have enough time to learn frog language, i can similarly attest that italian and spanish feel somewhat uninteresting to me, as most of the learning process was skipped
i love how both sound, it's just that instead of learning conjugations, usually all i need to do is ask them to repeat and pay attention to their hand gestures
there are also personal reasons of course, as all of them seem to constantly confuse me for a truck driver or a strawberry picker or what they call an egyptian and mostly teach me the curse words
anyway, to triangulate all romance languages i recommend either three of them or two that are far apart, preferably portuguese and romanian, but once again i may be biased
i am personally looking forward maybe to studying portuguese and finally receiving my tunic and toga virilis together with my roman empire citizenship
@@anires1195 I never said you would be able to speak all other romance languages, I was saying there is a high enough mutual intelligibility rate for you to speak Spanish and/or French to any other romance language speaker and for them to reply in their native language while understanding each other perfectly.
Plus, German is a Germanic language, Spanish and French aren’t. English is a Germanic language too but it goes without saying that it’s very different from other languages in its linguistic family. I speak German too and I actually started learning it as my 5th language (previously spoke Spanish, English, French and Guarani) and I found it hard as fuck, but it made other Germanic languages easier to learn.
@@aiocafea I’m surprised Spanish speakers understand you at all! I’m a native Spanish speaker and before learning French I couldn’t make out a single word Frenchies were saying.
Honestly, I would recommend learning Spanish, French and Romanian to round up all Romance languages, and I say Spanish instead of Portuguese because Spanish is almost 100% mutually intelligible with Portuguese and it shares more linguistic aspects with other Iberian languages than Portuguese does, plus we have more speakers so it’s easier to communicate with more people if you speak Spanish (you would be able to communicate with Spanish speakers as a Portuguese speaker but obviously their first language is better), as you would potentially be learning the language not only to understand other Romance language speakers but to speak to the natives too!

I am currently learning Korean, Japanese and German, so far German has been surprisingly easy because of the amount of words similar to English, Korean on the other hand while the alphabet is the easiest thing I ever learned it was 3 times harder than Japanese for their words to finally start sticking in my brain, but once they did it felt so damn good.
I recommend watching kdramas I know that a lot of peaple may think it's a silly way but believe me the words will stuck in your head and not just that but also with the way native speakers say it and it will also help you differentiate between the formal way of speaking and the casual way
I also studied those three languages at some point. Got a C1 in German and an N1 in Japanese, but I had to give up on Korean. No matter what I did, I never could learn any vocabulary. It just didn't sound like anything to me. The only words I could somewhat remember, all had Chinese origins and probably only stayed in my brain because of Japanese anyway.

No because I’ve spent 10x the amount on Korean and can barely say a thing, despite watching so many kdrama, listening to K-pop etc. I can speak in Japanese basically only from little Duolingo and anime watching from years ago 😭
Recommending Saudi dialect was intelligent from you man , it’s so close to the classic when we talk about vocabulary and grammar ❤
Apparently I am learning one dogwater language (Japanese) and one gigachad language (Russian.) Feels pretty balanced if you ask me.
Also, if you are serious about avoiding weeb culture, just do what I do and don't talk to anyone. It is very fun and rewarding, so don't let other people dissuade you from learning it (even if there are quite a few of them.)
Anyway, good luck to everyone learning!
Удачи тебе в изучении языков;)
Я тоже планирую учить японский, а пока занимаюсь греческим
There's actually a bunch of communities with people learning Japanese for work or that aren't hardcore weeaboos. There's a LOT of people learning Japanese and there's no way they're all those weebs ahah. Also, most Japanese people don't even watch anime, maybe read manga, but the only people who are truly obsessed with those are the West. So there's no danger to talking with Japanese people online tbh.

How do you learn two languages simultaneously? It sounds so time and energy consuming. Especially two languages that have no similarities at all.
Love your enthusiasim for Arabic , and it makes me proud that you are learning both Egyptian dialect and MSA , even if I wasn't an Arab native speaker I would have learned it ,fascinating culture and language ❤🙏🇪🇬🇵🇸..You sounded so alpha when pronouncing Arabic but you should work more on ح sound
I'm a Swahili teacher! I do think there is a future for Swahili. It is the largest "indigenous" African language on the continent. Many years ago when I started a Bachelor's degree in anthropology, I wouldn't have though Kiswahili is important. But since moving to East Africa, many African countries have started to teach Kiswahili in schools, hopefully as a possible lingua franca for Africa. 😊
Bruh I’m Arab and when I heard Swahili i thought it’s a strange Arabic
Also the alphabet are the same I think
i appreaciate the love habibi!!!
Hindi and Urdu are mutually intelligible in the colloquial register. If you are a native/advanced speaker, you can notice a few differences. Urdu speakers will use a lot more Arabic and Persian derived words while Hindi speakers will use more Sanskrit derived words. When it comes to accent, one thing that I have noticed is that Hindi speakers pronounce 'z' or 'ز' as 'j'. For example, when saying 'Cumin', Urdu speakers say 'Zeera' while Hindi speakers say 'Jeera'. I believe the accent differences come from the different scripts that they use. Certain sounds are found in the Arabic or Nastaliq script that are not found in the Sanskrit or Devanagari script and vice versa. Of course, there might be other factors contributing to the accent differences that I don't know of.
and if u learn one, u can essentially travel all around india (except maybe south, lookin at u tamil nadu) and i assume most of pakistan and communicate with locals.
dlc would include some parts of afghanistan, sri lanka, nepal and bangladesh
I've never heard Zeera honestly. Maybe it's not that pervasive and only a few people pronounce it like that. But it reminds me of a chemistry teacher in PhysicsWallah. He is from Rajasthan, west India, and pronounces J as Z. Like he says Zo instead of Jo(which).
Maybe it's not about Hindi/Urdu but I'm not sure. People from different regions have different pronounciations.
@@monudey118 Being born and raised in an Urdu speaking family, i see a lot of differences in the pronunciations of certain words which I believe are due to the linguistic differences throughout the subcontinent, as you mentioned i used to find it quite weird that people call 'Zeera' as 'jeera' and "Srinagar" as "Shirinagar" but all can this can be credited to the diversity in cultures and languages, which is a good thing ofc, but can be confusing sometimes. ps: ig that teacher from PW u mentioned is Mohit Dhandeech
(IOC) ?
I suggest a video by this awesome channel called "India in Pixels" titled "Are Hindi and Urdu the same Language?" It's quite detailed and fun to watch !!
Nastaliq is just an arabic font there is no difference between it and arabic. Its just a prettier version of the arabic script. You can totally write farsi, arabic, dari, and urdu in nastaliq font

Full year long commitment to Italian 🇮🇹 - thank you so much for making language learning fun!
I gave myself this year to learn Italian as well before my trip to Italy. I plan to have french on a slow burn.
Italian, at least for the short time I was studying it this past summer, was incredibly easy to learn. But I may have had a slight edge since I know a bit of Spanish and have a lot of high school French. The Romance languages are easy and fun!
@@loctrice That’s the plan. Saving up all year for a trip to Italy!
@@loctrice how did you feel after a year?
@cullenmatherne7382 oh sorry I wasn't clear. I'm learning this year and my trip is in 1 year from now. I've found things going quite well, but I already speak Spanish fairly well. I think it's a combination of already having learned a second language and it also being a romance language, but so far it's easier than Spanish was. One thing I noticed right away is I can spot and usually figure out grammar patterns where as with spanish I was confused a lot cause that type of thing was all new
The problem with Russian aren't really rules or grammar. It's that the grammar is extremely fluid and the proper word order is optional, but also most changes in the grammar are deliberate and actually mean something. Something you are unlikely to ever learn from a text book.
It can be moderately easy to talk like a dictionary, but that's not how people actually talk.
It's like yoda-speak has a meaning and a vibe in English, except in Russian there are countless yoda-speaks, and each has its own vibes and meanings, and they are switched around constantly. Because the words have declinations, most word orders will convey the basic meaning just fine regardless how jumbled the words are, and this is actually used all the time to add additional layer of meaning on top.
This is something that is most naturally learned by actually talking to people in different contexts to absorb their way of speaking
If you want to learn Russian to read Russian literature, that's something to keep in mind, because if you aren't living in Russia it can take you a _long_ time to know it good enough to really upgrade your comprehension of literature from what you were getting with translations. Oh, and btw those vibes were different historically. So, say, learning modern vibes will not really allow you to appreciate Bukgakov. You'd have to read a lot of Soviet literature and watch Soviet movies first. It very well may be that it in the end it may mot be worth it
that sucks. i’m obviously not visiting russia anytime soon but id love to learn the language
@@danielsmokesmids well, maybe I was too harsh :) it depends on the goal. If you like the learning itself, it's certainly a great language for that. You can progress and progress and progress and always have something new, some new horizons. But if you want minimal effort for maximum benefit, maximum expansion of available media as quickly as possible, that's probably not the best candidate. I'd probably pick Spanish for that or something
There are Russian writers that are more verbose like Tolstoy and they are more suitable for intermediate learners, but then again their translations are also decent. Bulgakov in particular translates horribly and English version of Master and Margarita is an atrocity compared to the smart light hearted brevity of the original where just a few words can create entire characters. But learning Russian up to a level to be able to fluently get that will probably take an unreasonable amount of time
It's easier in the movies since intonation and emphasis make the intent obvious
As a russian native I'm curious of what you're saying. First I was gonna disagree but you seem well articulate and thorough person. Can you give me some examples of changes in the fluid grammar, yoda-speaks and the other quirks you mentioned?
I also have a feeling that you got overcharmed by diversity of people's ways to speak which can be just a representation of illiterate language skills of natives. There's a such small group of people who can actually articulate their thoughts in a bookish manner. Dont worry, it doesn't sound old-fashioned, they just immediately get considered as superiors in any circle (maybe except teenagers under 15 and provincial criminals under 30). And I would say its even the easiest way to get famous in Russia - just be bookishly eloquent - and everyone simply wanna listen to you more.
And I'm surprised you find Bulgakov's language way different. I could agree if you'd say it about Dostoyevski or Chekhov, they're really nuts even for natives. But for me Bulgakov is a benchmark of actual russian. Same is about soviet period literature and movies. For me its literally modern russian excluding slang. And dont get me wrong, I'm zoomer.
Btw if you interested to acquire beautiful russian I can suggest you my subjective list of writers. It's gonna be Bulgakov, Dovlatov, Gogol, early Akunin, Lermontov, Limonov. Maybe you can try Андрей Белый and his "Петербург". No need Nabokov, he's too much
When LanguageSimp says that learning Russian opens tons of DLC there is more than you think, because just inside of Russia lives dozens of nations with their unique history, traditions, culture and languages (more than hundred). So by knowing Russian you can at least have a breath touch on some of the 15 language families there.
Not "nations" lol, but ethnicities/ethnic minorities. There's only one nation in Russia - Russians.
@@jasont4206 You're wrong. We have many nationalities, and our constitution stipulates that the people are multinational. "Русские" are one of the nations, but there are "россияне" this is a person who has Russian citizenship, but belongs to another nationality
@@viwion я знаю, что говорит конституция. Это не отменяет того факта, что все "нации" кроме русских формальным критериям нации не соответствуют и являются этносами. Селькупы численностью в 4 тысячи человек, никогда не имевшие своей государственности в современном смысле слова, не могут быть нацией, лол, это не так работает. Они имеют отдельную культурную идентичность, как и все этносы, но не более.
@@jasont4206 Ты приводишь в пример малочисленный народ, да, таковые у нас есть в государстве, однако говорить что у нас нет наций в стране кроме русских это просто бред. Этнос это обобщенное понятие объединения людей , в которое входят как раз нация , народность, племя и тд.
Так что у нас на самом деле многонац. народ, и в том числе у нас также проживают малочисленные народы
@@viwion ??? Что за псевдонаучный бред? Погуглите хотя бы значение терминов "нация" и "этнос" прежде чем позориться, это же несложно, лол. Могу даже сделать это за вас:
"Этносы основываются на языковом и кровном родстве, а нации, кроме этого, - на политических и экономических связях, культуре, едином самосознании"
I think the Arabic Chinese and Russian are the best languages to learn for the future. There is why Arabic to get money and business Chinese for the same reason and Russian for political things
But they re pretty damn hard😊
oh, i see you really like the challenge. arabic, for a start, is simply difficult to speak due to specific articulation. chinese has Dead Marshes of writing system, and it also tonal language. russian uhhmmmm for spoken russian, you can just get into cases and genders, then grind the vocabulary, but written russian requires so much more to learn.

I've been studying romanian for the past few months. It is such a beautiful language.
The biggest and richest countries have the most amount of learners, not the countries with the coolest sounding language
I am Romania too but I don't see why would anyone learn our language honestly.
Like our country is still pretty poor so there is no reason to move here and there are only around 25 million speakers so not that much dlc.

Wenn Sie andere Methoden ausprobieren möchten, dann sollten Sie die Kanäle "Natürlich German" (sie hat Playlisten, damit Sie auf ihrem Niveau lernen können), "Easy German", "Deutsch1" und die Filmserie Nicos Weg anschauen. Wenn Sie ein absoluter Anfanger sind, dann sollten Sie von "Natürlich German" anfangen, und nach die A1 & A2 Playlisten sollten Sie zwei oder dreimal Nicos Weg A1 anschauen (mit DEUTSCHER Untertiteln, nicht Englisch), und danach fangen Sie die Kanal "Easy German" an. Am Anfang ist sie ein bisschen kompliziert wegen der Umgangsprache, aber nach ein paar Videos wird sie einfacher (und Language Simp nutzt Easy German auch).

But now I am commited to seriously learning modern Greek, so I will wait a few years.

Those are two different sounds. Ukrainian "и" sounds like [ɪ], as in English word "will". Russian "ы" sounds like [ɨ], which is not found in English. Perhaps you can't hear the difference because you are Russian-speaking? Also, Russian [ɨ] is clearly harsher.
