No wonder we love Freddie Highmore so much. He's a very intelligent and articulate young man in every sense of the word and speaks with his entire body.
I've enjoyed watching Freddie on The Good Doctor since the first episode and when he was speaking Spanish flawlessly on the last 2 episodes, it blew me away. I've noticed a lot of British actors speak different languages and they speak them very well, here in America we're too ignorant to learn a second language, its looked down upon which is just ridiculous. Being able to communicate with other folks in THEIR native tongue is a sign of total respect!
I don’t think people look down on learning another language in America, unless you are an immigrant and the second language you are learning is English. People don’t seem to realize that’s just as impressive, if not more than learning B level Spanish in high school.
@@sparkybish it is interesting to study adaptions to the immigrant experience, esp. in language acquisition and learning additional ones. First generation after immigrating often focus on the new local language habits and culture. Second generation often wish to preserve the heritage keystones of their grandparents' country or region of origin. I often see these while doing genealogy. Some generations or language cohorts may retain the structure of the former culture as identity longer than others. No one pattern is "better" than another, but all are fascinating.
He’s too good for Harry Potter. He has a very special and underrated talent. Every movie he’s been in has it’s own magical element that’s really brought on by his presence. He’s obviously talented outside of acting as well. Fine man he has turned out to be.
I love the show The Good Doctor. He is an amazing actor. He is very smart to be fluent in both Spanish and French. He comes across as such a nice guy in the interviews he does on TV.
I love the Bates Motel teaser where he's vising the writers of the show at Universal and mentions every chance he gets that he is fluent in 5 languages. :-) So funny.
Freddie, soy de Málaga (España), te lo digo en español.... Eres adorable, yo nací 30 años menos un día antes que tu... y si hubiera tenido un hijo , me hubiera gustado que fueras tú... desde tus primeras películas , te he visto crecer... , ¡¡¡ cielo, sigue así, como eres, y triunfando ya sea en tv, o en cine... ¡¡¡, Freddie forever.....
My son also is a polyglot with Chinese, Japanese, French, Spanish and Russian in addition to his native English. He also certified in US government language tests as well. My wife and me are also bilingual. Language can open so much of your brain capacity to learn and understand. Unfortunately, this is not commonly exposed in US elementary school system. The early you can get exposed to other language, the easier it is to learn. This can also retard the development of dementia. Very nice of him to have these skills.
Now these should be the bars for acting. Then I don't think I'll have much problem with them getting payed so high. Not just looks but chemistry, character change, knowing more than 3 or 4 languages.
Y'ALL his portuguese accent is actually very good from what i'm used to hear from people who are not familiar with the language! :D THERE IS STILL HOPE
wow! 😳 Ce jeune homme est polyglotte! Et, je confirme qu'il parle mieux en français que bien des gens dont c'est la langue maternelle! Très impressionnant! 👏👏👏👏👏
Such an intelligent guy. Never heard of him before watching The Good Doctor. His French accent is brilliant, I can’t comment on the Spanish and Arabic as I’m not familiar with them.
@@gyovannafagundes1354 Eu sou portuguesa ahah tava só a dar reconhecimento a ele por falar português porque é de facto uma lingua muito complexa e das mais difíceis de aprender para quem não é nativo! :) mas obrigada ☺️
I loved him since charlie and the chocolate factory. I knew he was going to be great one day. He's outstanding and i hate the fact he doesn't get the recognition he definitely deserves. His portrayals are always so good, specially on bates motel and the good doctor. TE AMO, WN 🇨🇱❤️
Oh my god, Portuguese caught me so off guard. I'm portuguese myself (but grew up in Germany so I have a little bit of an accent) and his pronunciation is spot on. Damn.
Love the Good Doctor series.Recently watched the 4 series. He played the part well.I hadn't heard of him until I watched these.And a British Actor as well ....
He studied Arabic and Spanish in college. From 2010 to 2014, he attended Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he earned a double first in Spanish and Arabic.
Just by watching Asian movies, I do not only understand them but I speak them quite fluently now especially Chinese and it is really weird esp since I’m from Africa, Nigeria. I guess there are people just naturally understands languages pretty easily, it is weird if you ask me tho
Ah Hah...I suspected this guy was extremely well educated and attended a top-notch English Uni. Besides be a fine actor and fun person, he also seems very nice.
His parents are actors too. my guess is that he grew up with foreign nannies around or that he started learning other languages very young. you can teach a child over three languages before a child is 3 years old. That way they don't have an accent.
Yes. I guess. Because the same happened to me: I was exposed to Hebrew, Dutch and English before I was three and have the gestures and accent that go with it. Thanks for enlightening me on that.
Freddie is an academic beast with perfect A* grades in every subject in high school (including Spanish and French), then achieved a double first Bachelor's degree in Spanish and Arabic from Cambridge University (effectively a 4.0 GPA) whilst filming the first two seasons of Bates Motel.
As a native Spanish speaker myself, Freddie's conversational Spanish is excellent! Having said that, his first movie I saw was 'Finding Neverland' so it's weird to hear him swearing in other roles! :D
I know you shouldn't idolize people but GOSHHH WHY HE ISN'T MORE FAMOUS??? HE IS PERFECT!! Great actor, humble and kind to others, really smart and super handsome. I'm officially a simp 😭💞💞
Gestures and expressions, through movement, are indicators of attention to the nuances of languages and communication. When one has mastered two or more, in addition to a native language, it becomes easier to appreciate these differences or similarities. Add in a sign language and it broadens those perspectives. I appreciate his attention to those details.
I’m multilingual and I change pitch, rhythm, facial expression and body language depending on the language I speak. I’ve had people pointing this out to me. From what I’ve observed, people who keep their native language’s accent do less of this.
For being French I can tell that he almost doesn't have any accent at all. That so amazing! I've heard that he wants to play in French movie he could be a French guy in a French movie. No problem.
I was just proud that I understood most of what he said. I learned the "euuuh" in conversation class in university so it doesn't seem remarkable to me. *attempts gallic shrug. fails, but amused self anyway*
Everyone in England knows how to do the french mannerisms because we sort of make fun of the accent a bit.. (in the same way that french people probably make fun of how english people speak).
I like the lad even more now. His body language matches each time he's speaking those lingos. I mean he's a natural. Hope and pray he gets more lead roles on all those. Seems down to earth guy. All the best mate!
For speaking, Italian and Spanish are very close. Speaking multiple (disparate) languages is common around the Mediterranean, as well as central Europe. What is unusual is picking up a new language quickly.

If they’re counting accents I speak many many languages. And I talk to the animals.
Wow!! What a smart and talented guy he is! Very impressive!
Lots of love to Dr.murphy....from Kerala, 🇮🇳
He speaks 5 Languages:
1.English (British and American accent)
2.Arabic
3.French
4.Spanish
5.Portugese
I guess you didn’t watched it until the end 😊
It’s so weird watching him talk in another language, but it looks so natural and easy for him.
Yes i was surprised, when he talked in a different languages on the good doctor, yeah and it seemed so natural to him, i was like what wow ok.
True
Believe me, I'm spanish and he speak spanish like a native amazing accent and pronunciation
I know right
True
No wonder we love Freddie Highmore so much. He's a very intelligent and articulate young man in every sense of the word and speaks with his entire body.

Most of the people from Europe speak 2 or 3 different languages. As well as Asian also.

somebody needs to give him, golden trophy, Oscar awkward, and 100Million dollars.
How has he not gotten one yet? Is criminal is what it is. 😩

Just know him from "The Good Doctor" (I'm a big fan). A stunningly good actor!
Highly recommend bates motel!! It’s my favorite of his work 💛
He has also worked as a director.
He was great in Bates Motel
yeah you gotta watch bates motel he was amazing in that
Finding Neverland.
Probably the only actor born at the right time who wasnt on Harry Potter...
@Robert Kowalski True. Plus, actors from HP have a hard time being known for anything else
He’s too good for Harry Potter. He has a very special and underrated talent. Every movie he’s been in has it’s own magical element that’s really brought on by his presence. He’s obviously talented outside of acting as well. Fine man he has turned out to be.
I am absolutely enamored with Freddie. He is such a talented actor and brilliant person. It’s a real treat to watch him perform.
I love the show The Good Doctor. He is an amazing actor. He is very smart to be fluent in both Spanish and French. He comes across as such a nice guy in the interviews he does on TV.
Wow, watching him in The Good Doctor vs. in Bates Motel, the differences in the speaking pattern are so subtle, but it makes a world of difference!
Love being British!!
Wouldnt trade it for the world!
I understood everything that was said!
As a native Spanish speaker, Freddie's Spanish is literally perfect, he even sounds better than some "native" hispanic actors
I love this guy! So many talents.
Plus he plays the flutes with his nose. Two at the same time!
So talented and his Spanish is on point ❤️
I bet he's the kind of guy that just learns languages for fun...
A remarkable young man ! Good Doctor is my favorite show. So intelligent
and yet humble. I'm from Montreal & his French is excellent !
Him being British and speaking Spanish in a Spaniard accent makes sense. I see Spain as the Britain of the Spanish speaking world.
I get what you're saying. I always think of Mexico as American Spain.
I love the Bates Motel teaser where he's vising the writers of the show at Universal and mentions every chance he gets that he is fluent in 5 languages. :-) So funny.
Brilliant, charming and a skillful actor.

One of my favorite actors.
You could tell he's brilliant ❤
What an amazing dude😲!
I had no idea he was a polygot
This is truly a gift x
I speak Spanish, and I can say this guy speaks my language better than me! his fluid and accent are very well.
As a french I'm impressed xD the typical french accent, I like it :)
But french language is difficult so congratulations to him
That's amazing... In such age... He's a pentalingual person ... Eye popping 🙀
For future reference anyone that can speak multiple languages is called a polyglot in English- although the origin is Greek.
Y'ALL his portuguese accent is actually very good from what i'm used to hear from people who are not familiar with the language! :D THERE IS STILL HOPE
He's a very talented young man. He will go far.
wow! 😳 Ce jeune homme est polyglotte! Et, je confirme qu'il parle mieux en français que bien des gens dont c'est la langue maternelle! Très impressionnant! 👏👏👏👏👏
I am stunned!!! He speaks all these languages without any accent at all!!!
I am surprised though he does not speak italian with all his pre-work
Wow, what an incredible actor!❤
3:03 Wow he speak French very well
That's good, Its impressive 💙
Admirable!!
i'm spaniard and his spanish is sooo good. i also love that he has this spanish (from spain) accent, and he pronounces it so well!!

You’re awesome 😍
He knows Arabic?! 😍

I always suspected this dude was multifaceted. Polyglot?! Wow!
His Spanish accent is from Spain and is really really good! amazing! any info on why he is so fluent in all these languages?
@Amperlette cool, thanks :)
@Amperlette He also lived in Spain to learn more about the language, if I'm not mistaken in that period he was filming Bates Motel
@@melinda6921 I remember him saying he worked at a law firm in Spain.

Confidence is key when learning a language
Eloquence and confidence are the keys to speak in different languages.
There's this movie called spiderwick Chronicles he stars in it

No scandals either. I think people in the US love the drama.
Apparently he stays away from social media
@@juststalking214 it's probably for the best, considering all the nonsense that happens to actors and such that do
As he speaks each language, his body movements and gestures change to match that language! 😉👍😊
But I can still see him as Dr. Shaun Murphy. =) which is alright.

Doesn't everybody do that?
@MsWill813 yes. Any multi lingual person, shows expression or hand movement, once confident in a language other than their native tongue.

He did played in "Deux Freres" when he was a child, and he speaks French there
He speaks perfect 🤩 Spanish like a a Spaniard

He'd pick up Italian too in a couple of weeks.
For speaking, Italian and Spanish are very close. Speaking multiple (disparate) languages is common around the Mediterranean, as well as central Europe. What is unusual is picking up a new language quickly.
He did get to use his Spanish skills in the last episode of The Good Doctor plus I'm guessing the next episode since they are a 2 parter.
Also in his very recent movie 'The Vault'
DAMN!
Go Freddie!
