    I'm in the middle of doing an e-learning series that sets the foundation in Sanskrit so that other languages like Thai etc. can be learnt a lot more easily.

    I've always been amazed by people who speak several languages, but this is a whole different level of amazement.
    Btw, your latest video about the interpretation of Lisa's "Rockstar" brought me here.
    นับถือค่ะ!

    @elvein1 I have a nice stash of learn Sanskrit books - about half of them in English. The other good ones are written in Thai, Indonesian and Hindi. Many students of Sanskrit in other places have passed on different Sanskrit learning materials that they've picked up from Universities around the world.

    하이루 ! 메시지를 감사합니다 :) I wouldn't say I speak Korean. Actually, Korea is one country that I travel to reasonably regularly and feel like a duck out of water. I can read Hangul and taught myself to type it years ago. I can also recognise where many of the non 'uri mal' words have come from in Middle Chinese - so understand a lot of signs etc. I would definitely like to spend more time learning Korean.

      Woah hello there! I originally found you through Geoguessr Tourist, and then found this channel.
      Didn't expect to find you here, but it makes sense, seeing this stuff is absolutely fascinating for anyone interested in Geography and Languages!

    Never been in a situation that I've had to really use it. Lately, I've gone through the first Pimsleur series and a few other books in Portuguese - it's a matter of putting my situation that would make me use it now.

    @AnanyaVilas That's brilliant. Burmese shouldn't be too hard for you - the same base sound system as Indian languages and the grammar is amazingly simple and logical. If you go to Chula bookstore, you will find a great book in Thai - about A4 size, yellow / creamy coloured cover with red writing ภาษาพม่า. One of the best books I've found so far to learn Burmese. Would be great to chat when I'm in town.

    Need a very good memory to be able to speak so many languages. As soon as I started learning Thai my Japanese went out the window. I can only keep ability with practice otherwise it fades away. 15 language speaking ability... wow!

    indonesian and malay, should be considered one language with two different accents. urdu and hindi, should also be considered one language except for having different scripts. so he can only speak 13 languages.

    Here is Nald from Hong Kong. I also learnt lot of languages from around the world. Danish and Norweigian and Swedish are almost the same, same for Bahasa Indonesia vs Malay. I think you should take seriously the suggestion from other youtuber and try French.

  • @StuartJayRaj

    Mr Stuart Jay Raj should also try Bengali a classical Indian language with rich literal tradition and Russian a major language spoken in the world and an UN working language.

    Karen isn't fluent by any stretch yet - but can communicate in it... thanks to our maids / nanny. They speak Pwo. The best book I've found on both Pwo and Sgaw are actually all in Japanese - nevertheless, they're pretty decent.

    @andromeda03 he mirado un video donde Fazah debía hablarles a personas que hablaron unos idiomas que él "habla" y muchas han dicho que no puede verdaderamente hablar el idioma. Por ejemplo, el chino dijo que pareció que Fazah no habló nada de chino... No sé si yo diría que él es mejor que Raj.

    So you could learn similar languages very quickly, for example, German, because of similarities in Swedish and Danish language, and because of the techniques you use to memorize meanings?

  • @onotheo
    @onotheo 15 лет назад

    How are you sure of that? Do you speak some and/or all of the languages he speaks or asked people who speak them? From his videos I am certain he speaks at least 2 languages fluently, because those are the ones I'm familiar with. Also, how certain are you that he only speaks the very basic of those some languages?

  • @braddockrd
    @braddockrd 15 лет назад

    This guy is either a very smart man or a charlatan. I lean towards the latter. He has learned to speak the very basics of some languages and not too well. It is very easy to impress a group of people by blabbering a few words in each language, but fluency is a very different thing. Evidently, he is quite full of himself and quite arrogant, as the self interviews show. He is a business man and I am not impressed. I have seen waiters in southern Europe speak 5 or 6 languages with the customers.

    Morse code is not a 'language'. It's an alphabet at most. And 'sign language' is too vague - there are many forms of sign language, which are often mutually incomprehensible.
