I met this flag car guy. I unintentionally hurt his feelings. He thought it was the most amazing thing, when he was showing me the national anthem light show thingy I ask if it could do other songs like ACDC etc…. It didn’t click with me that this car was his contribution to the war.
@@ukraine_tbic Foot in mouth moment🫢. 🇺🇦♥️✊ Gtsy here Brandon.
I was on a 450 day Duolingo streak (506 now) and my kids got me a Beginner’s Ukrainian textbook. Where they introduced… cursive?! Maaaaan the t looks like an m and the d looks like a g and the b looks like a d and… dammit I had a HANDLE on this thing until then. 😂
Foreigners often cry over ukrainian or russian cursive 😅For people who don't know what it is - Google *russian cursive makes me cry sometimes*
Ukrainian is a made up language😂😂 Even that comedian/puppet Elensky grew up speaking Russian. Russian is spoken by 200 million people! It is one of the 6 main UN languages. Any one with common sense will learn Russian first before thinking about any other slavic language. Even Johnny learned Russian😄
580 streak and I no longer learn new words. I've reached the end. I need another app now. 😂
I'm the bombdiggty at single words now.
Duolingo is not what you need. beorlingo is the way to go.
In response to a previous video: Johnny, your dog is so jittery, you might want to consider a vest harness style of leash. It helps protect the neck of dogs that are constantly tugging on the line, and it helps the dog stay calmer while on walks, and so as a result they trust their owners more. The vest harness style of leash would probably help your dog handle the stairs in your building with greater ease, since this is something that seems to scare him. You can buy the vest harness style of leash online if they don't have it locally. I think your dog will thank you and it will make your walks more enjoyable if you get this kind of leash. Take my advice as a former dog-walker, the harness leashes are way better.

More power to the dog that hasn't learned how to walk with the pack leader. I have seen lot's of little sized leaders walk their owners. Rarely seen big dogs with a vest.
Вітаю Джонні! Ви зробили гарні роботі! Українська мова - складна мова, хоча мені подобається вивчати. Я почала вчитися два роки тому але я ще новачка. У нас будемо успіхів у наших навчанні 🍀🙏💙💛
Congratulations Johnny! You did a great job! Ukrainian is a difficult language, although I enjoy learning it. I started studying 2 years ago but I'm still a beginner. We will be successful in our studies! 🍀🙏💙💛
@Serge-ft5et дякую 💕 сьогодні я вивчаю нову слову "досягти"

You were right. The first thing I learned at school was neither *Hello* nor *How are you?,* but *London is the capital of Great Britain*
Good job, Johnny!
That was great best one yet. Not saying the others were bad. This time you nailed your punch lines. Kept your jokes neater telling them. Keep it up Johnny!!!!
I appreciate that!
I'm teaching myself Ukrainian through Okean Elzy I can sing 6 songs in Ukrainian,. I really love the language and look forward to going to the Okean Elzy concert in October. Love your videos; Love seeing this country through your eyes. I'm from Vallejo California. Embarking on my first abroad adventure can't wait! Really enjoy your channel!

Well done dear. Awesome!
I can definitely hum along with 6 Ukrainian songs. 🇺🇦♥️✊🤙
Keep doing comedy man, it takes a long time to get proficient, but at least for the most part you’ll have a jump on the public speaking part!
Awesome!
Я почала вчитися українською мовою 9 місяці
Great video! I've been learning Ukrainian myself since September and am still a beginner, even with a teacher. I am moving to Kyiv in three weeks though for at least a year so perhaps living there will boost my ability in this beautiful language.
Thank you Johnny, take care. 👍🇺🇦
Here's to help8ng boost the algorithm and saying Happy Birthday to you once more. 🤗♥️🇺🇦
Wow, thank you!
Hey Johnny! We all suck at something. Personally, I suck at statements on the condition of the human beings and the world. Sucking at learning languages to me comes off as a minor issue. Nevertheless, must say that honing up to one's shortcomings prob is the way to go for humanity. But then again, what do I know...
Who doesn't love good jokes and real life experience? Ukraine needs some winding down. 🇺🇦 🇺🇸 🇲🇽
learning languages is not easy, it can only be learnt at a very young age.
The funny part of languages all the languages are murdered
Johnny you're as funny as a glass of milk. I like the videos though.
Very nice, thanks Johnny.
Hey Dude, fellow Bay Arean here. NO you dont suck at it all. Hey man let me tell you something. I have been in Europe pretty much since the early 90s a few countries, mostly the Czech Republic. Yea, I am kind of a bad ass in languages I speak a few foreign tongues languages fluently, but hey man I have been here half of my life. You are better than you think. You have a long leg up on the languages since your brain already is used to using two mother languages. I ll tell you something man, having an English speaking brain and then trying to learn ANY SLAVIC language is a nightmare. It takes many years if not a lifetime. I know Anglaphones here almost 30 years and still cant form two sentences in Czech with correct grammar. Its no you its just the damnd slavic langauge. It takes many years at least 10 years you will need. That is if you really work at and get away from hanging around a bunch of goober English speakers who also cant speak Russian or Ukrainian. I learned German fluently in a year and with almost no accent. Yea it was 30 years ago and I was almost 20. I learned to speak Dutch too because it was easy and close to German and English. Czech took me 10 years at least. My Czech is not near as good as my German still after 24 years. It is ok. I have learned to just accept that it just wont be as good as my German. Just remember that it takes many years. It will happen. Keep your mind focussed and get way from again goober English speakers otherwise it might take you 20 to 30 years. Move to a villiage, get a girlfirend or wife who cant speak English. You probably need to move closer to the Polish or Hungarian borders. Living in the capitol city is not good around a bunch of educated young people. Get out there with the country bumpkins. Ukraianian is not hard at all, its no harder than Polish, Czech,Serbian Russian or any of them slavic langauges. For me to learn any of them now its pretty easy. You get the one down and then you can learn all the rest like cake. It will happen give it another 6 years.
Love Gonzo bar, was there alot
3:38 I admire all these Americans in Ukraine like you Johnny, doing your best to try to make life a little better there. However, I wonder what makes us decide to help some people but not others. For example, why do we help Ukrainians but not Palestinians who are suffering through something as bad perhaps worse? It's obvious they need some help. The international community has condemned Israel, but no one will stop them and no one will help Palestine. Is it racism? Riligiousism? I
First off, the two are NOT comparable, stop comparing the two. Ukraine did not go into Russia to kill civilians at a music festival and take hostages back into Ukraine. Secondly, even though Russian propaganda likes to falsely claim so, Ukraine's elected government is not a terrorist organization like Hamas is. Thirdly, and this is the last i'll waste my time on this topic, the West helps Ukraine, because we're connected, countries help their neighbors and allies.
It's the responsibility of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and other Arabic and Muslim neighboring countries to help Palestine, not the EU's or US. Lastly, In 1994, Ukraine agreed to transfer these weapons to Russia and became a party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, in exchange for assurances from Russia, the United States and United Kingdom to respect the Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders. It's our responsibility.
@@JohnnyFD You're using fallacies as your arguments. Why is it the responsibilities of Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and other Arabic and Muslim neighboring countries to help Palestine, when they had nothing to do with any of it, any more than it is the responsibility of the US to help Ukraine other than the Budapest Memorandum? Palestine is just as far from the US and the EU owes no more to Ukraine than it does to Palestine. But it is certainly the British responsibility for what they enabled the Zionists to do. I'll tell you why, because just like the fallout from Iraq and Syria, the EU is going to have to absorb the brunt of all the refugees that are created by this brutal massacre on Palestine. It's the US's responsibility to take in all the refugees from Iraq isn't it, since they waged an illegal war of aggression against Iraq but it ends up being defacto Europe's burden because they end up taking in all the refugees. As a result the extreme far right gains more power on the basis of anti-immigration and racism, and everyone suffers. Do you understand?
@@JohnnyFD And then you are blaming Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and other Arabic and Muslim neighboring countries for not helping, but isn't that what the Iranians, Lebanon (Hezbolla) and the Houthis re trying to do?? But we get brainwashed our media, just like the Russians get brainwashed by theirs, to believe to believe the Houthies are "terrorists" when they are only trying to put pressure on the west to stop Israel. The hypocrisy is maddening.
Dude your Chinese, Russian and Ukrainian is light-years ahead of mine, I only know the cuss words
OMG Johnny, you lost the audience when you said that you decided to learn Russian back in 2016 instead of Ukrainian language. The comedy routine got to be too much like a lecture in the slavic languages instead of about funny things that happens when you try to use the slavic languages. We all die on stage once in a while, so better luck next time Johnny. You are still fearless for getting up on that stage.
Ukrainian is a made up language😂😂 Even that comedian/puppet Elensky grew up speaking Russian. Russian is spoken by 200 million people! It is one of the 6 main UN languages. Any one with common sense will learn Russian first before thinking about any other slavic language. Even Johnny learned Russian😄
But so many Ukrainians speak Russian as their main language. We have around 200,000 Ukrainian refugees here in Warsaw and at least 90% of them are Russian speakers. I hear Russian everyday in Warsaw - but the speakers are Ukrainians who fled Russian invaders, not Russians. I rarely hear Ukrainian. (I've studied Russian, speak some Russian, speak Polish and can distinguish quickly between Russian and Ukrainian.)
half of ukraine speaks russian
@@aviadilo Please, do not consider this statistic representative for whole Ukraine
Ukranian is just Russian ebonics.
When you find good wifi does it excite you
In Ukraine no, as good WIFI is standard here. But yes, when i'm in other countries, it's like wow, we found civilization.
👍♥
Ukraine to Johnny FD is what Russia is to Bald
Johnny does love Ukraine. He supports dozens of people as well as organizations in Ukraine. ♥️🇺🇦
14:59 😅The waiter was like 🤔
where is lordie??? he is alone at home at balcony??? I think lordie must be at your side 24/7
Pick some songs that you like and learn to sing them. Then learn the meaning of the phrases.
Ask your Ukrainian friends to only speak in Ukrainian for the next ten minutes. If that’s not too frustrating make it an hour. You can express a lot with pantomime.
No, you’re good at languages. You’re fluent in Mandarin and English.
I learned both of those as a child, so that doesn't really count. 😂
hello click
Johnny, we are still love you)) God bless your heart..
Stand-up is hard. It's hard to be funny.
I miss Kyiv so much. Isn't Podil the area with the big white ferris wheel?
❤Колесо находиться на Контрактовой площади. А Джони зашел в бар на улице Верхний вал. Это в 7 минутах ходьбы от площади.
Really cool thanks for sharing, Johnny. JFD UP IN THE HOUSE!
My first experience in Dubai in 2015. I came to the metro station and asked in English a very very tanned guy on a desk for a ticket to Burj Khalifa. "Desyat dirham" he answered 😂
You have to visit Bila Tserkva city!
It’s 40 min by car (or bus) from Kiev. Very beautiful city, with Arboretum Oleksandriya and many other things . You will be impress👍🏼
What's there to do there? Write me on instagram.com/johnnyfdj
Lol Johnny, you still don't speak Russian, come on
I didn't say I speak it well. But I speak it. 😂
Ignorant people cuss.
And prude Karens are overly offended by it? 😂
Who says cuss! Honestly, who says that?
@@ukraine_tbic Someone who just gota ruSSian version of 'Speak online like an American for Dummies'?
Try using a language app
Learning foreign languages can be a huge challenge.
Johnny fd! I really like your vedio content love your channel I enjoyed watching your vedio content.dude I share out your channel all over mine Sosial media.
Thanks for sharing it! It means a lot!
@@JohnnyFD dude all ways support your channel.
Your brave Johnny I could never do that.
😅the Ukrainian language is very complex, there are 3 times more tenses and words than Russian
YOu know you are making progress in a language if you can tell and understand jokes!!!
Great job Johnny! Takes courage to go up! Question, Do people like satire /sarkaism in Ukraine eg British humor?
Yes, actually people from Odesa are famous for that type of humour.
haha, good job on stage, you were funny! Your "минет" story reminded me of a friend that told me about when he first moved from Russia to the States, he tried ordering a "Coke" and said, i'll take one "cock" please....so you're not the only one!! :)
Про що ви ?? Я розмовляю вільно українською@@User-so7ex
Im not a comedian...jokes for my friends and family only 😅@@User-so7ex
And even "coke" is ambiguous as it can refer to cocaine as well.
You still haven't explained your obsession with the Ukraine. Why would you choose that country over your safe USA
Why would you want to live in a country that gave us Wonder Woman?
Why would you want to live in a country that would rather die than bow down to хуйло?
Seems obvious to me.
Where you may end up one of the dead at a politial rally where an assassination was planned?
He’s explained it like 900 times. Kyiv is central on the side of the world he enjoys to traveling to and made more sense then cali to chill and settle down in because cost of living. Then the war broke out and he rallied behind his new home. Get out of here you troll
I was just telling him the exact same thing I don’t get it either I find him entertaining though🤷♀️🤪
You seem to have missed that video where Johnny explained everything
LMAO Johnny OMGOSH! I'm dying over your "one minute" joke! Please tell me this is a true story. 😂😂😂😂
It was true. 😅
@@JohnnyFD This made my day in the funniest way! Thanks. 😂😂🤣🤣😂😂
😃😍👏👏👏
Are you still a USA citizen are you a Ukraine citizen or are you just on a visa ?
PR in UA
Why are you so obsessed? 😅
