This would've been helpful 25 years ago! I learned Italian and Swedish at the same time because of my life situation and to this day I speak Swedish with an Italian accent and vice-versa.
That is really cool, both languages feel a bit like "singing" to me and that is the reason why I actually chose to learn them. To this day, Swedish is still my favorite language :)
I have been learning Italian for the last year. I thought how can I learn two languages at once, and as I can already mostly understand Italian I decided to learn Spanish for Italians in Duo Linguo. But now I keep saying a lot of Spanish words like I would say them in Italian. So I joked to a friend that if ever I am able to speak Spanish I'm going to do so in an Italian accent. And my accent is going to be even funnier as I speak Australian English with an Australian accent ... As I am Australian ...
Entendo perfeitamente o catalão através de outros idiomas latinos ! Quando comecei a ler e ouvir o catalão.... tive facilidade. Isso vale para o occitano também. Já o idioma romeno é o mesma situação do catalão e do occitano... mas também por causa dos idiomas eslavos... especialmente o russo. Idiomas germânicos... entendo parte do alemão e do holandês (e também algo dos idiomas escandinavos) através do inglês. Inglês e alemão são os idiomas germânicos que sei melhor.
Muy interessante, gracias para el video. Tenia miedo de mezclar mi EspaNol con Italiano. Eso es la razón porqué aprendi Aleman in lugar de Italiano. Cordial saludos desde Québec !
Yay! A new video in Spanish from Laura! I guess many non-native English speakers are already using English as an intermediary language to learn a third language. As for me, I'm learning Spanish via English. But it feels like English doesn't really "count" though. Would be cool to one day learn a fourth language via Spanish :)
Like most of us I started off learning English as my first foreign language (after my mother tongue German), then school French, later Spanish at university and since living in Spain also Valencian (Catalán) and some Dutch. I'm trying to keep up with the other languages, mainly French but I find it difficult at times to work on several languages at the same time.
This is indeed difficult, I struggle to not lose my Swedish and Russian right now to be honest... I try to practice them every now and then, but I have forgotten a bit unfortunately...
Mesmo esse rapaz sendo poliglota e falando muito bem espanhol,eu percebi que ele pronunciou a palavra "pandemia"igual que é pronuciada em português e italiano.En espanhol se pronuncia "pandêmia".Acredito que tenha a ver por ele ter aprendido primeiro a lingua italiana😮
5:55 yo soy de Mexico y me gustan mucho las lenguas ibericas Hablo español, portugués y gallego y sigo aprendiendo portugués y gallego y también el catalán y el asturleones
Wow your pronunciation is really good in both English and Spanish!😍 Could you please share how you approach learning and practicing pronunciation in foreign languages?
Laura - Vídeo interesante! Sería bueno presentar un poco mas a Dhananjay - porque fué la primera vez que lo escuché (El es de la India? Cuál es su lengua materna? Cuáles son todos los idiomas que habla?). Dicho esto - es muy impresionante y interesante oir sus opiniones sobre la confusión entre idiomas de la misma familia. Creo que la clave es (como dice él) - el nivel que tienes en los idiomas que estás aprendiendo - y depues, de practicar el cambio rápido de una lengua romance a otra (que para mí ha sido la parte más difícil de dominar). Gracias Laura por todo que haces para nosotros! - :)
Sigo aprendiendo el español pero tengo ganas de volver a aprender el francés (lo aprendí en la escuela hace 25 años). Estimaría mi nivel de español a B1 y por eso, me temo que aprender otra lengua latina sería un error. No sé. A lo mejor un día a la semana con el francés. No quiero que baje mi nivel del español.
Soy aficionado de los idiomas. Soy nativo en inglés, puedo funcionar a un nivél de C2 en japonés (llevo 35 años viviendo aquí). He tomado DELE nivél Intermedio B2, Goethe-Zertifikat B2, y para el Chino, que estudio desde MUCHOS años, alcanzo B2 (HSK4). Aunque tenga DELF A2 en francés, supongo que ya tengo un nivel más alto porque tomé el exámen hace muchos años. La mejor manera para averiguar el nivél es tomar un exámen basado en CEFR.
googling it I found this one: www.loecsen.com/pt/curso-sueco#/pt/O_indispens%C3%A1vel But have no idea whether it was that one, it's been three years hehehe
Se me hace más lógico estudiar los idiomas a partir de otro similar. Empecé con el Alemán a partir del Inglés y iba muy bien, hasta que decidí estudiarlo a partir del Francés. No duré un día.
When I was learning to speak Spanish, which is my third (and last) native language but I was just an overhearer, I mixed it up all the time with French, my second. I got "vendrá" mixed up, because French "viendra" is Spanish "vendrá" and French "vendra" is Spanish "venderá". I still say "corriel" ("courriel" in French) because "correo electrónico" is too long. But "pourriel" doesn't go well into Spanish because the 'd' in "podrido" messes up the blend. I've talked about buying henna de una vepecista (the acronym VPC makes equally good sense in French and Spanish). And I would totally say "oriñal" and explain que es una especie de ciervo.
Sunt român è meta della mia vita sono stato in Italia. El español estoy aprendiendo attraverso l'italiano, româna mă ajută mult, también el francés, que puedo decir? Tante volte mi confondo perché queste lingue si assomigliano molto... I'd like to remember all the palabras franch I used a lot time ago...
Jo també vaig aprendre el català, el castellà i l'anglès. A més, soc bilingüe italo-grega. O sigui, puc considerar-me com a políglota. Si vols, pots entrevistar-me, seria un plaer.
Amb Duolingo apreno el català a traves del castillà perqué no he la causida. Adoncs m’ha donat l’enveja d’aprener el castillà. A vegada les lengues se semblen tant que em puc enganyar
What about Romanian? It has lots of Slavic influence. And yes, English does have a huge influence from French, when I was studying Linguistics a teacher told us 40% of the vocabulary in English comes from French influence. As a speaker of Catalan and Spanish as mother tongues, I did not struggle with French vocabulary so much, but pronunciation was indeed challenging to learn :O
@ if French is considered Romance language English should be considered romance too. Both have Germanic and Latin influences. French is the language closest to English and French pronunciation is very Germanic

Sí, te entiendo. Me encantaría aprender un poco de portugués, pero no quiero perder mi italiano :D. Y además no tengo tiempo jeje
Agree! Music is a very good way to learn a language :) 🧡
Yes! :)

Is the Swedish course in Portuguese still available? Could you send me a link to it? I would appreciate it very much!

Sou do Brasil e não sei espanhol, mas como vocês falam devagar, entendo tudo. Acontece isso com o inglês também, o idioma que estou aprendendo.
Buenísimo. Gracias
Me alegro, muchas gracias :)
Si….si…..si……….si……..siiiiii……siiii…….si….siii. Dios mío. 😵💫

Es tarde déjà, por que je no puedo pas separer queste lingue.
hehehe questo me arrive molt a menudo anche ;)
Sería interesante (aunque quizás no útil) que este hombre aprendiera latín a continuación.
Pues sí!!! :)

French is the most different “romance” language. If French is considered romance so should English
What about Romanian? It has lots of Slavic influence. And yes, English does have a huge influence from French, when I was studying Linguistics a teacher told us 40% of the vocabulary in English comes from French influence.
