+WillyTheComposer Well, being French, I had it just with the music intro, specific for presidential or official TV broadcasts some years ago :P
+Yann Rodrigues (YRO Covers) I got it from the music too. What is it exactly?
+KAYOS Somyou didn't get English (16)Right?...
+Grace Ho It was the Belgian King saying that he was disapointed that we still didn't have a governement by that time. So the music was the Belgian National Anthem. So I heard the music and I thought "Alright, it's gonna be either Dutch or French".
The Japanese speaker sounds "weird" because it's the Emperor. He's addressing the nation after the 2011 earthquake and talking about the situation.

No. 5 is the Norwegian Kings speech after the Norway terror-attacks in 2011... :/ moving and sad
Indeed. A friend of mine who was studying at Oslo Uni. and had just finished the semester a few weeks before told me he was staying in Majorstuen not far from where the bomb went off, he was quite shocked.
2:10 kjære alle sammen, nå er nesten alle ord brukt opp. De siste fire ukene har vært tunge for oss alle, men nettopp da er det godt å være sammen. Mine tanker har vært spesielt hos dere som var direkte berørt av terroren, og dere som har mistet noen dere var glade i. Som far, bestefar og ektefelle, kan jeg bare ane noe av deres smerte. Som landes konge føler jeg med vær og en av dere.
@Bye Bye Bye Studios The fact that this person you chose to use that as the Norwegian sample it was a little too sad for me. The king actually cried during that speech

Man, I'm in love with languages but I only got German, French, Korean and Japanese lol. I'm also super bad at guessing anything and my native language wasn't here
Sami sounded like Finnish, Finnish sounds like a mix between Japanese and Swedish, and Lithuanian sounds like Polish with a Japonesque pitch accent. But Swahili sounds bomb!
AHAHA. I only got German, French, Korean, and Japanese. Damn 😂
fell asleep between german and irish. woke up to the sound of irish and realized he was speaking slow enough to understand :)
Cool! This is fun and I like this! Some of the sound clips are hard to hear or the speaker talks too slowly and it’s hard to get a sense of the language. More world diversity would be nice in the future If you make more (but I like love welsh and Irish!!! And was cool to hear Romansh)

The only ones I knew for sure where the ones I've (attempted) to speak before like German, French, Korean, Japanese, and Swedish. After a while, all the Latin/Germanic languages started to sound the same and I got hopelessly lost!
It would have been nice to hear some Portuguese, Spanish, Thai, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Mandarin/Cantonese, and other languages that weren't so Latin/Germanic based. Part 2 maybe?
+Stacie J As someone who have Swedish as their mother language, I have to say there is no Swedish on this list. If you meant number 5, that's Norwegian.

Thumbs up if you're Norwegian and offended by the guesses below :P.

Oh shit... Im going to offend everybody.
wow i wasn’t expecting to hear romansh on this list at all!!! i was so excited to hear it ahhh!!!!
Very interesting that Romansh language. It's sounds tremendously similar to the italian dialects of northern italy.
"20. - Russian" Do you even heard Russian? -_-
Russian is way different from lithuanian

I got 7-8 with the last point being two half right. Thankfully got Gaeilge because I’m currently trying to learn it. Was surprised to get Korean though. This was fun!

It actaully dosen't.You'd be pretty dumb to think that Lithuanian is similar to Russina
Russian is waaaay different.
its like day n night man
I am Korean. And your results are very interesting to me. Because I actually thought that many could not guess Korean at all, I know that still, there are many people who have not heard of Korea. :P haha..But you guys were almost correct! Anyway, I was totallu failed at guessing Scandivian languages. Mostly I thought that those are of east europeans. I hope I can meet many different cultures someday!

Geezuz. Why would you use that soundclip from Norway? That is so tragic, and a constant reminder of the killings...
actually even though I'm from Britain i can tell that 4th one be Irish because you can tell by the accent hinted in the language.
As soon as 10 turned on I knew it was Korean I can't speak it that well
Still an army it seems? Aww lucky you’ve been one since wings era. I’m new :) edit: it could be even earlier too tho
am i the only one who understood the last one?
Awww so glad I was able to guess correctly the languages like Northern Sami, Irish and Samoan :D the linguist in me is proud.
I'm from Norway and I don't know what most of the other languages are talking about, but did you really have to pick the speech of our king after the massacre that happened in Oslo and Utøya in 2011? I mean, out of everything you could have picked you chose one of the most depressing things that has ever happened in our country. This video went from a fun guessing-game to a reminder of what happened five years ago.

Szacunek za poprawne odpowiedzi I have known 7 :ff
Walter Taljaard The last one is not the same language family.
François Ganger Baltic languages, Sami, Finnish and Hungarian are part of the Finno-Ugrian language family as far as I know. An older language family than the Slavic, Germanic and Latin languages and originally deriving from the Ural/Siberia.
Some moved East, crossing the Bering Straits landbridge, and became the Native Americans. Some moved West and settled around the Baltic coast, in Finland, Northern Scandinavia and also in the North Balcan steppes. Allthough there are significant Eastern Gothic and Mongolean influences in Hungarian, the ideom and the flexes remained.
It is ancient language family, but not the oldest.
The oldest language is Baskian, a branch that was spoken by Europeans, even before the Fins came from Siberia and the Celts came from Central Asia.
1.Baskian; unique
2.Finno-Ugrian; Baltic, Finnish, Sami, Hungarian
3.Celtic; Irish Gealic, Welsh, Scottish Gealic, Bretonic, Ancient and modern Greek, Latin, (Spanish, Portugese, French, Rumenian) Germanic (German, Dutch, English, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Frisian).
4.Slavic; Serbian, Slovenian, Croatian, Albanian, Bosnian, Czechian, Slowacian, Bulgarian, Polish, RUSSIAN, Ukranian, etc..
Am I wrong?
François Ganger Forgot a couple of Latin languages like Italian and Swiss Romanic.
And donot know all the Slavic varieties.

There is a relationship between the Baltic and the Indian (and Iranian) languages… but the same relationship also extends to the Slavic, Germanic, Celtic, Italic (Romance), Greek, Albanian, and Armenian languages, plus a few more branches, now extinct. Latvian and Hindi really aren’t any closer than, say, Greek and Hindi or Portuguese and Hindi.
french and korean the only ones i knew .. shame on me :D

The Irish speaker (#4) definitely sounds like an Anglophone who learned it as an L2. Languages have specific tonal inflections peculiar to each and that one definitely sounds English. Has an accent too. :)
