I have the Belgian French R, and I can't roll my R's properly. Thus, I've got a weird slightly rolled R that I use to pronounce every other R, except for English. It works best when trying to pronounce Dutch and Icelandic, but my accent can't escape from being noticed in Italian, Spanish, Russian, Arabic, Hindi and so on. It's not that bad but the R is a real traitor.
I'm French and learning german. I find this language very easy to pronounce once you know how to pronounce each letter and syllable. Much more easy to pronounce than english or french in which you can't guess the pronoucation of many words just by seeing them written. And I watched your video where you taught icelandic and I couldn't pronounce a word, the very frequent rolled r's are a nightmare to me.
About the Romanian word. You usually don't roll the R, but in some areas you do. Also, it doesn't mean "cabbage". Sarmale is a type of food, consisting of a mixture of rice and meat in rolled up in cabbage foil, most of the time. They can also be made only with rice, for vegetarians. Here's a link to a picture: images.app.goo.gl/FmaXcupsRbSUqiuY8 Hope I helped :) You said it almost perfect, good job!
i am so hapy because you talk romanian as well.sarmale is a traditional food extreme delicious.we use marinated cabbage and mince meat and we roll..is absolutely amazing food
@Daniel Eliassenfgh618 many word came from other languages so while the word 'sarma' may come from turkish or russian 'сарма́ ' it doesnt matter, the word sarmaLE with the "LE" is romanian and it is also called perisoare invelite in some places and the way we do them with pork meat and cabbage is romanian dish and romanian way to do it as turkis or islamic dont eat pork at all snd they use vines leaves (we also use vines but more popular is the cabbage ones). It is popular in turkish sarma or dolma but is not known the origin, the food is too old like any salad, the stuffed food cabbage eggs pepper aubergine chicken etc.. was popular in middle east but in balcans was since 350 BC as in greece they thought they inveted it but is too old to be know (as italians thought they invented pizza but they didnt they just popularised it) this it from me enough talking, on short the unknown origins in less important, the transformed word is romanian too and food is nice if you have the chance try it, have a nice day :)
@@PopescuSorin yes or minced meat i mean in english are different words for this but this was about romanian language not english, good day, numai bine :)
I loved the video!! Btw "sarmale" in Romanian does not mean cabbage :))) I dunno what google translate did lmao. It's a very traditional food which is cabbage rolls filled with rice and meat and spices and boiled. We eat them for Christmas, Easter and so on and for every festive occasion :)) Since they take a lot to make grandmas make them often haha Also you pronounced the word perfectly! We roll our r's too 😂
The Finnish one was spot on! I don't think that many languages, other than Icelandic, say the diphtong "au" as "öi", which you got wrong a couple of times

The hebrew word is pretty hard, because there's no vowel after the "S", but there's the hard "ch" consonant right after it. The "h" should be pronounced like the ch in the greek word. And the s isn't silent. So it's s-char-cho-ret. But you're so cute for trying. Cute is chamuda 😋
that was so cute😊 when you try to pronounce shell in French 🇫🇷 " coquillage " but honestly that was not bad because the French pronunciation is really hard
Not just Romani... and you, just like a Srbian dude have admitted a dribk/meal. Not actually a word. Cause "rakija" does not mean "brandy". It is a certan type of brandy named Rakija. Just like vodka or tequila.

Hi Hrafna, in german, ei always sounds like " ai " in spanish; eu in german sounds like " ói " in spanish. The letter Z in german always sounds like " ts ". You look so beautiful, especially wearing a blue blouse.
I stumbled upon your videos literally after watching EuroVision on Netflix and wanting to see some actual Icelandic people lol. Let me just say, I've been binge watching all of them and you are soo gorgeous and seem so sweet, and I love learning about Iceland from you and hearing you speak the amazing language. I'm from America and someday I would love to visit your beautiful country! Keep up the awesome work. 🥰👍🏻🇺🇲 🇮🇸
Harfna,is so funny and sweet to hear you trying to pronounce words in different languages,even though that Icelandic is probably one of the most difficult languages to learn and above all to pronounce! Fair play to you! Love from an Italian living in Ireland!
Let's see her try some Mongolian. Mongolian is considered one of the hardest languages almost solely for its difficulty of pronunciation, which is essential to get spot on, lest no one will understand you no matter how fluent you are in the actual language. So a perfect language for this kind of video. Interestingly enough, Mongolian and Finnish have a very similar grammatical syntax, and to become fluent in the actual language is no harder than Japanese, so it is possible, but you would have to live in Mongolia or with some Mongolians a little while for people to understand you.
I love this video because when I came to Iceland I feel like Icelandic is soooo difficult to pronounce. I have the impression that there was letter on the paper and the person in front of me was saying somthing completely different ^^. By the way, I'm french and you pronounce quite well the words !
Gazete originates for sure from french. At the beginning of the twentieth century Ataturk introduced a lot of french words in turkish (Tavulet, Kuafor originates from Toilette, Coiffeur) Gazette is one way to say newspaper in France, gazzetta in italian. La Gazzetta dello Sport, is the most important sport newspaper in Italy.
meicrodon is microwave in welsh, pipty pong is the Wengalish (Welsh-English) version. Its the same with jellyfish, which many people think is pysgod wibbly wobbly (wibbly wobbly fish), but its actually slefrod môr
I can't wait for part 4!!!!!!! Also, the way you pronounced いちご(ichigo) was actually really good--it just sounds like you have a bit of a foreign accent.
11:01 I speak English as my first language and Italian as my second (my parents are Italian). I once tried to learn a little bit of Icelandic and a little bit of German. German is much easier by a landslide for me. Icelandic has "ð's" and "þ's" while German doesn't. As well as that double letters are pronounced as one in German (just like in English) and the "i's" sounds much more like English ones. The German "r" is also easier than a rolled "r" in my opinion (which is also why my Italian is quite bad since I can't pronounce my r's properly). German just genuinely flows better in my mouth as well. When I try to read/speak Icelandic I stutter a lot. I think that since you speak Icelandic as your first language, German might seem hard when compared to Icelandic but as someone who doesn't speak either language, German is way easier for me by a milestone lol.
If you’re having trouble with your “R’s” start out with learning the French “R”. They roll their “R” at the back of their tongue. For me, I found that was much easier than trying to roll my tongue at the front of my mouth, and you can slowly work your rolled “R” forward from the back of the tongue to closer to the front. I’ve been learning Dutch, and they roll their tongue at the front for their “R”. With practicing with the French “R”, I’ve been able to slowly move it forward, and I’m getting closer and closer to being able to do it at the front of my tongue. Hope this helped.
I am happy I am Norwegian, we have both R’s, so German and Spanish phonetics are easy, especially compared to English, which has the most difficult R of all languages that has an R
@@ingerjuni I'm Norwegian as well. I definitely prefer my native trilled/tapped R. Where have you grown up in Norway that you use both? I thought it was either or. The English R (rhotic approximant also used in other languages) is easy, but I hate the sound of it.
Neophema I have grown up in western Norway and then moved to East Norway so I can use both, but I am slightly more comfortable with the eastern R, but most people in Norway can speak both Rs, when they parodies other dialects
Good video. I suggested a word in Nahuatl (which is an endemic lenguage in Mexico) but I guess that you had a lot of words to pronounce, so maybe for another day. Also, I think that you learned the european spanish pronunciaton, the most notable thing is the sound of your "s". Good video, greetings from Mty.
Here are some Dutch words with hard to pronounce diphtongs: ei - egg ijdelheid - vanity ui - onion uil - owl Here are some Dutch words with hard to pronounce consonant combinations: herfstchrysant - autumn chrysanthemum angstschreeuw - fear scream slechtstschrijvend - worst writing (as in "I am the worst writing person") And this is a word every Dutch person knows: hottentottententententoonstelling - hottentot tent exhibition (hottentots is a name Dutch explorers gave to an African tribe)
I can't completely agree with you, because if we forget about the wrong work of the Google translator, we may notice that we don't pronounce “л” in the word “солнце”, and this should sound like | sontse | and also I can add an extra comment that (ts) is one sound in this word.
The german words are actually chosen because of all that sch and ch sounds. We are taking that words for not nativ speakers, because they are difficult to pronounce. I have a Spanish friend who was struggling a long time with the word Schlösschen.
The Portuguese audio of the Google translate looks like the woman is drunk and sleepy lol So I prefer your Portuguese pronunciation than the pronunciation of the Google translate and I'm not kidding.
'Ei' in German is like the English word 'eye'. You will hear the word Streichholz in the Nena song '99 Luftballons'. Regarding the French word 'heureux', it sounds vaguely like örö. Hs are silent.
In Italian generally the accent lays on the penultimate syllable but there are many exceptions, like "Albero" in which the accent lays on the first syllable, so it sounds like "àlbero".
Tip for Eichhörnchen and Streichholz... Ei in German is pronounced similarly to æ in Icelandic and the words are composed of two words ... Separation is Eich-hörnchen and Streich-holz :) fun Video. Thank You ! :)
Almost correct for Lithuanian, but” Sumuštinis” contains the letter Š, which is pronounced “Sh” like in “She”, so it would be “ Sumushtinis” Great video! ❤️😊
this videos are so funny :) btw, for what concern latin languages, except for french that has its own way to spell the R, all the others rolls the R (not as much as in your language, but still)
hrafna: "tries to speak my language"
me: "ahh its payback time"
It sounds so cute when you try to pronounce Eichhörnchen

In Italian generally the accent lays on the penultimate syllable but there are many exceptions, like "Albero" in which the accent lays on the first syllable, so it sounds like "àlbero".
In the minute 4:36 the pronunciation of the word is wrong because the translation was in brazilian instead of the portuguese one
No, "sarmale" doesn't mean cabbage, it means cabbage rolls. Cabbage would be "varza".
Cabbage rolls filled with meat to be more precised

Tip for Eichhörnchen and Streichholz... Ei in German is pronounced similarly to æ in Icelandic and the words are composed of two words ... Separation is Eich-hörnchen and Streich-holz :) fun Video. Thank You ! :)
Wow what a lovely blue theme!
Almost correct for Lithuanian, but” Sumuštinis” contains the letter Š, which is pronounced “Sh” like in “She”, so it would be “ Sumushtinis” Great video! ❤️😊
Portuguese "Mochila" I learned that in middle school in the US as Spanish and it also means backpack. The Spanish spelling is Mochilla.
this videos are so funny :) btw, for what concern latin languages, except for french that has its own way to spell the R, all the others rolls the R (not as much as in your language, but still)
Your pronounciation of coquillage is pretty good !
The word derives from turkish, in fact. It' s: raki.
