I know Dutch and am intermediate level in German - they are both gorgeous languages, and are very easy to recognize, just like English, but Dutch is way softer than Belgium Dutch and German because the Rs are softer in Dutch, while the Rs in Belgian Dutch are too hard / rolled, so it sounds harsher like Spanish, so all speakers should use very soft Rs only in all languages, because hard Rs don’t sound good!

I have a really hard time understanding the girl from belgium, and I am Dutch. She also said she was 40 years old? huh.. Idk I understood the german lady better haha.
Servus! Mein Spitzname ist Eduard. Sophia did a good job. Gut gemacht! I starting to catch a little more of the German now, it sounded like Zoe started with "Hey, I sure can it...", but I couldn't figure out the word that started with "m", it almost sounded like "machen", but not exactly, and then "My name is Zoe...", and then I lost the narrative. At least it's starting to catch up with my Spanish comprehension, catch a few words and figure out the context. Dilara started with "Ich heisse...", but she used the hard "ch" sound, maybe to throw Sophia off, make her think she was Dutch, or can they say it that way in Switzerland too? Maybe "Wir die Käse haben. Es ist wundervoll.", would be a good hint from Dilara, if that's the right way to say it.
i would say you have the first sentence right... yes it was 'machen' Hey, ja klar, kann ich machen. Hey, yes, of course I can do that. and the second one: Mein name ist Zoey und ich bin dreiundzwanzig Jahre alt. My name is Zoey, and I am twenty-three years old.
When will malay and bahasa (malaysia, brunei, singapore, and indonesian) people get screens together? I need the comparasion because we have a lot similar word
@@NickJoyhillTBH Malaysians would say that the two are the same language but Indonesians would say no. The truth is a bit more complicated. Words can mean different things, for example ‘butuh’ means ‘to need’ in Indonesian but it means ‘penis’ in Malay; ‘banci’ means ‘transgendered’ in Indonesian but ‘census’ in Malay, etc. Grammar rules can also differ, for example ‘to hurt’ is ‘melukai’ in Indonesian but it’s ‘melukakan’ in Malay.

I'm german and I work in the Netherlands. I work in a company with a lot of different cultures and nationalities, all speaking with dialect dutch. It was easy to find out that the guy was a native speaker, but the Belgian girl sounds like someone not native speaking dutch. But for my ears, she was really good to understand. I find it interesting that the Swiss girl, although she speaks German, was harder to understand than the two Dutch speakers. But the Dutch speakers lied about one thing: The most famous food in both Belgium and Holland is "Friet"! ;-)
Yeah „swiss german“ is probably a bit misleading. Much like pennsilvania dutch isn‘t anywhere close to dutch. The problem is the term deutsch/dutch. Many don‘t know the difference between deutsch, hochdeutsch or standard deutsch. They are not the same thing. Yet a lot of people use it ad synonyms.
Why is the American in the middle and is she talking about their use of language?In the States itself,a kind of English is spoken and has no national language of its own, and they cannot actually participate in this. They give their original inhabitans names that are completely foreign to them..

@@marchforjune of course, I just thought that for the original commenter listing the percentages might gives a clearer idea of how the language situation in Belgium actually is
There a countless dialects (and a number of protected languages) in the german speaking regions. I am from the northernmost state bordering Denmark and number one had such a distinct accent to my ears. That's why I always refer to Germany as the United States of Germany. Driving into a different region feels like crossing the border into another country. The architecture, the food culture, the landscape... all is changing within a couple of hours.
@@hightidemidafternoon I guess the difference between Standard German and Swiss could be compared to Standard British English and thick rural Scots or something. Then Switzerland would have a large dialectal variety with most of the dialects rarely being written down other than in jest with a nonstandardized orthography, anyway...
@@katii1997 He speaks Nazi bullshit. Blood and soil and the bullshit. Aims at the fact that the German girl is not blonde and the Belgian one is black.
Many migrant workers from Turkey and Morocco came to this part of Europe during the 1960s, and obviously they have kids. I’ve never been to the US, but that country is absolutely not the only melting pot in the world.
Tell you what. If you love genetic Germans so bad then you send all your citizens of Turkish origin to the US and we’ll give you your 50 million+ German diaspora here back since you don’t like immigration.

It honestly sounds arrogant to me and kinda annoys me
Why didn't they put subtitles for the contestants?!
I have a really hard time understanding the girl from belgium, and I am Dutch. She also said she was 40 years old? huh.. Idk I understood the german lady better haha.
I'm glad Sophia doesn't understand Dutch HAHAHAHAHAHA
Servus! Mein Spitzname ist Eduard. Sophia did a good job. Gut gemacht!
I starting to catch a little more of the German now, it sounded like Zoe started with "Hey, I sure can it...", but I couldn't figure out the word that started with "m", it almost sounded like "machen", but not exactly, and then "My name is Zoe...", and then I lost the narrative. At least it's starting to catch up with my Spanish comprehension, catch a few words and figure out the context.
Dilara started with "Ich heisse...", but she used the hard "ch" sound, maybe to throw Sophia off, make her think she was Dutch, or can they say it that way in Switzerland too? Maybe "Wir die Käse haben. Es ist wundervoll.", would be a good hint from Dilara, if that's the right way to say it.
The hard ch is typical for swiss german... thats why they have all that Ricola sweets for the throat because their language is so harsh to it.
i would say you have the first sentence right... yes it was 'machen'
Hey, ja klar, kann ich machen.
Hey, yes, of course I can do that.
and the second one:
Mein name ist Zoey und ich bin dreiundzwanzig Jahre alt.
My name is Zoey, and I am twenty-three years old.

Swiss German is a different version of German I've gotta say...
There is lots of afrikaans words. 😊❤
When the harsh Germanic languages try to outdo each other in softness of pronounciation, lol.
they all talk completely normal
Netherlands my country 🇳🇱❤🇳🇱
what did the guy say that made others laugh?
The american girl is dressed up in granny clothes.
I like number one the best some German words can be easier to pronounce than others

Why was that dutch guy so mean???
When will malay and bahasa (malaysia, brunei, singapore, and indonesian) people get screens together? I need the comparasion because we have a lot similar word
And put in a Phillipino speaker to see if he can pick up a word or two .. 😄
I've read that Indonesian and Malay are the same language with a few differences here and there. Is that true?
@@NickJoyhillTBH Malaysians would say that the two are the same language but Indonesians would say no. The truth is a bit more complicated. Words can mean different things, for example ‘butuh’ means ‘to need’ in Indonesian but it means ‘penis’ in Malay; ‘banci’ means ‘transgendered’ in Indonesian but ‘census’ in Malay, etc. Grammar rules can also differ, for example ‘to hurt’ is ‘melukai’ in Indonesian but it’s ‘melukakan’ in Malay.
@@kilanspeaksButò in Cebuano/Visayà is penis. 😂 Pukì and Pekpek are Tagalog for vagina.
😵the guy describing the outfit is quite critical, saying that his grandma would wear it 🤭. The sound quality is not so good, especially no. 1 and 3 were difficult to hear.
Thei languages are related
All languages are germanic there , even your english 😂😂
To varying degrees, that is the point. English speakers have a harder time learning German than Spanish, Italian or Swedisg as per the US Department of State
@@ahsookee italian? not at all. english is way more similar to german than italian is tf. such a nonsense thing to say

Babe from Belgium...damn what a sweet beauty 😍
I'm german and I work in the Netherlands. I work in a company with a lot of different cultures and nationalities, all speaking with dialect dutch. It was easy to find out that the guy was a native speaker, but the Belgian girl sounds like someone not native speaking dutch. But for my ears, she was really good to understand. I find it interesting that the Swiss girl, although she speaks German, was harder to understand than the two Dutch speakers. But the Dutch speakers lied about one thing: The most famous food in both Belgium and Holland is "Friet"! ;-)
Yeah „swiss german“ is probably a bit misleading.
Much like pennsilvania dutch isn‘t anywhere close to dutch.
The problem is the term deutsch/dutch.
Many don‘t know the difference between deutsch, hochdeutsch or standard deutsch.
They are not the same thing.
Yet a lot of people use it ad synonyms.
Oh yeah I love Belgian chocolate! 😃
Thanks Naya. 😆
Well Norway is a acceptable call but Polish is very bad
I don’t think she was told the language family (it would make things too easy)
6:56 ????????
World friends 😃
Sweden, Switzerland, Swaziland - all the same (for some US citizens).
Glad swaziland doesn‘t exist anymore.
Sweden you are next😂
Why is the American in the middle and is she talking about their use of language?In the States itself,a kind of English is spoken and has no national language of its own, and they cannot actually participate in this. They give their original inhabitans names that are completely foreign to them..
Dude!
*you mean US American, there’s 56 other countries in America(:*
Deductive reasoning
?🤨 But an US american is also an american, anyway thanks for counting them.👍

belgium language is french ?
People in Belgium speak Dutch, French, and German
@@marchforjune interesting , i don't know about this country
About 60% of Belgians have Dutch as a native language, 40% French and less than 1% German
@@the.ghost.in.the.library Yes, I'm just listing the official languages there, not implying that German is widely spoken
@@marchforjune of course, I just thought that for the original commenter listing the percentages might gives a clearer idea of how the language situation in Belgium actually is
would you do this with South Asian countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, srilanka, India, Maldives, Afghanistan, Nepalese, mayanmar ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
No 1 and no 3 were actually speaking the exact same language. Now tell me German isnt fucked up
There a countless dialects (and a number of protected languages) in the german speaking regions. I am from the northernmost state bordering Denmark and number one had such a distinct accent to my ears. That's why I always refer to Germany as the United States of Germany. Driving into a different region feels like crossing the border into another country. The architecture, the food culture, the landscape... all is changing within a couple of hours.
@@hightidemidafternoon I guess the difference between Standard German and Swiss could be compared to Standard British English and thick rural Scots or something. Then Switzerland would have a large dialectal variety with most of the dialects rarely being written down other than in jest with a nonstandardized orthography, anyway...
Put a Swabian there who lives close to the Swiss border, you would be surprised how similar is it. 😂
@@SchwarzeSonne1965 Dialects crossing national borders, who'da thunk?... 😲
@@hakanstorsater5090 Yes our Swabians from Germany crossed borders for real. 😆

Have you ever heard of an immigrant?
@@saerunofarc yes bro I heard 😃 but she technically not Belgian because genetic not giving allow😉
Her parents came from the Congo but she was born in Belgium.
@@Yüksek_lord Well lucky enough for this channel, she speaks Flemish! And that’s literally all that matters.
There are millions of black people all over Western Europe. Not very surprising. (I don't know about the situation in Eastern Europe, too well...)
Turkish girls representing 'German' countries... FACEPALM! 😅
Many migrant workers from Turkey and Morocco came to this part of Europe during the 1960s, and obviously they have kids. I’ve never been to the US, but that country is absolutely not the only melting pot in the world.
turkish will go back to turkey when germans go back to germany from agerntina 😅
Tell you what. If you love genetic Germans so bad then you send all your citizens of Turkish origin to the US and we’ll give you your 50 million+ German diaspora here back since you don’t like immigration.
The German girl isn't Turkish. No Turkish immigrants have ever called their daughter Zoë 😂 Lots of German girls have dark hair. Snow White is literally a German story. This phenotype is documented in Germany since hundreds of years.
She is not Turkish. She is German watch the name and watch the accent. Turks in Germans speak different no matter born here or not.
This channel is getting ridiculous. German?
What do you mean
Pourquoi regardes tu la vidéo alors ! 💀

Elaborate please
Yes German, the old language of your ancestors.
