I laughed so hard on the Brazilian one. Jack reading a sign saying "trucks must drive over here", reading in Portuguese and trying to find it on the map made my day.
I'm not saying Jack's next video needs to be learning languages.. but learning the difference between Norwegian, Spanish, and Serbian would definitely come in handy
Yeah, as a Dane (Thus relatively similar language to Norwegian), it was a bit of a headscratcher when he said like that last sign could look like norwegian... yeah not even remotely close no...
Map creator here! Thanks for playing the map, I always love watching your videos and was thrilled to see you play it! Also, the yellow plates seen on the cars at 13:20 and 14:27 are found in Luxembourg. Also, town names in Luxembourg like 14:05 are surrounded by those metal poles, similar to Denmark as well.
CH is the abbreviation for Switzerland. Since there are 4 official languages spoken in Switzerland (French, Italian, German and Romansh), they used the Latin words for "Swiss Confederation" as the abbreviation, which is Confoederatio Helvetica. So they didn't have to pick and choose a "favourite" language out of the four. 😌
Jack trying to read portuguese at 0:50 was the most hilarious thing I've seen all day😂 Btw the sign translates to "Mandatory direction for cargo trucks" (and no Jack it's not a place)
Well, the last one is a lesson for Jack : Pay attention to what those accents are and on what letters they are. Because most of the world's languages HAVE accents (or diacritics, for a more technical and accurate term), so you can't just go "Well they have accents on the sign, they have accents where I'm looking, it must be right then". The ones you saw on the sign are called carons, and they are used in certain Slavic languages (mainly in the Balkans, and also Czech and Slovak), as well as in Lithuanian and Latvian. They are mainly put on top of C, S, and Z. Do not confuse with the breve, which is round instead of pointy, and is used on top of vowels instead of consonants. You will find it in Romanian. What you saw in Scandinavia are the letter Å, mostly used in Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian, as well as umlauts (like Ä or Ö), which are used in Swedish, but also, as you probably know, in German (but Swedish doesn't have Ü). The umlauts are not used in Danish or Norwegian; they use Æ and Ø instead. (Note : The umlaut, also called diaresis or tréma, is not exclusive to Swedish and German, it's used in many languages)
Dude I’m living in Montenegro 🇲🇪 and those are not accents those are letters and let me tell you that in Montenegro we use 2 more letters then Serbia 🇷🇸 which we use one of them for axe-śekira and other one for a little black dot in eye-źenica and others like ž š and the sign 🪧 said let’s safe trees from fire 🔥
@@mimiwixxm If you want to get real technical, those are diacritics. But I didn't want to use technical words. That being said, you're right, those aren't accents, and they are considered letters of their own by speakers of these languages.
As a dane, I was panicing quite a bit when jack guessed the bridge between Fyn and Sjælland, instead of the bridge between Denmark and Sweden. But I totally get how you could make that mistake lol
"Lots of places on the border of Lesotho amd South Africa where nothing is going on." *Zooms into the "Dragon Mountains," famous as a national park and world heritage site, highest point in the subcontinent, and affecting the weather of half of the country, leading to a tropical east coast and arid interior*
7:00 You can notice that the blur on the car is wider than usual. This is because we are in low camera which is because of privacy. This low camera is only found in Switzerland and Japan sometimes in Taiwan and also Sri Lanka and Nigeria.
11:00, Jack, the Øresund bridge is rather famous. I knew where they was the moment I saw it. It’s a beautiful bridge. Bridges aren’t so geography related. But maybe have a look at some of the more famous ones. Like the Rialto Bridge in Venice.
I know about that bridge but I thought it was the one that went from Saudi Arabia to Bahrain... Never been to either of those places so dont know what they look like.
I know it from the Danish/Swedish TV show "The Bridge" where they try to solve a murder committed on the very part of the bridge where Denmark crosses over to Sweden. :)
Me laughing on the first one when Jack started looking for someone with the same thing as the green sign. In Portuguese it says ”mandatory way for cargo vehicles“ 😂
I'm a huge geography nerd and I'm visiting copenhagen and Malmo in a couple of months. Since when I'm excited about going somewhere I look loads of stuff about it and needless to say I recognised that bridge the second jack spawned in haha
As someone from Malmö, do you mind me asking as to why you've taken an interest in visiting my hometown (besides being a geography nerd)? I'm not being judgemental, merely curious.
@@PsychoticSalamander that's usually how the story goes 😂. There's loads of foreigners visiting Copenhagen (and Copenhagen citizens too) who comes over to Malmo just to buy something called lösgodis. Google what it is and perhaps buy some when you visit.
3:44 Angola and Namibia don't have any official Google streetview. So your options are down to South Africa and Botswana. If you look down at the Google car you will see a large circular blur and if you look up you will see something looking like a halo in the sky. This is know as Generation 2 camera which is only found in certain countries. In Africa, it is only found in South Africa.
The Sweden-Denmark bridge is so iconic at this point after it was popularized by the noir series The Bridge/Bron/Broen. I've never been to either of the countries but I could instantly say where it was.
7:20 Ch is for Confoederatio Helvetica which is the latin name for Switzerland and comes from Napoleon because Switzerland was a french Puppet at that time and Switzerland got named that. Funnily enough today Switzerland isn't actually a Confederation so the name doesn't make sense anymore.
I hope Jack does a video on domain names and leaning them, it could come in handy next time playing geoguessr. I also would like him to do more Google map bingo.
Your South African friend here. That sign you saw by Namibia and South Africa was a Kudu sign. Usually to show that there could be Kudus (or other large buck) in the area so be aware of them. Kinda like how Americans would have moose signs. Also springbok was in South Africa and a springbok is our national animal
8:27 Jack you do realise that often the gate is just to one side of the border, cause also no way the gate in the Mexico/USA border was right on the border cause the actual border line went through the bridge
4:44 That's a silhouette of a kudu buck. It is the logo of South African National Parks (SANParks) and it means that there is a national game park that way.
hey jack, we very rarely use accent markers in norwegian, i think it is almost exclusively é, maybe some others but very rarely. you were probably confused because of å, and maybe ø, but those are induvidual letters.
4:45 That's the Sanparks organization's logo.Sanparks basically run the national parks and nature reserves in south africa. Also you could look into the roadsigns and roadlining.Yellow sidestripes will always be either South Africa,Lesotho,Eswatini. The signs just have something different to them than others. 3:38 Some signs in SA especially on a T - crossing will have the red arrow bars on the bottom. The brown sign is also exclusive.

Tip for Jack, I live in North Carolina and have been to many states, the Southeast area of the US is generally green with some areas having small green mountains, a lot of trees, and smaller cities in my area but Atlanta isn't small, and also a lot of states have streets or towns sharing the name of other states, so don't confused. For the West it is just mountains and desert with big cities popping up in more common western states but some small towns can pop up, I do know in the southwest there are a bunch of poor little areas that you need to watch out for and flat brick or stone is common in New Mexico. I don't know much about the Midwest but there are a lot of flat areas, mainly flat but also quite a bit of urban areas in the Northern Midwest, hopefully some of this helps
I thought instantly that the bridge looked like the bridge who connects Sweden and Denmark. Now I am very proud 😍 I dont think it goes so slow as you think, its not much variation on the middle of the Oresund bridge.
I think Jack did pretty well all things considered. He should do another video but this time it’s trying to find the USA state border like Nevada/California

Jack was quite clever with recognizing the light Luxembourg Blue, as I believe this is the old flag (which looks pretty nice imo)
That’s the civil flag of Luxembourg, which is honestly much cooler than the national flag
In the end, skipping the Town name was crucial for his choice, since it was right there on the map as well.
The bilingual sign said Harlange / Harel, which would rule out France and French Belgium.
There is 3 people saying that that is a diffrent flag and everyone is saying diffrent things
That Italian "river" is actually Lake Como. Beautiful area!
