I am starting to lose my hearing. My older brother uses hearing aids and stil has problems. Your message above plus this well done video remind me of my two favorite coversations (for unintentional humor) with my older brother. After one, I was silent too long, and after prodding, told my brother I know he wasn't talking about bears. For the second, again after being silent for too long, I told him I was still trying to figure out three words. I still chuckle if I think of these. Diane, using Joe's tablet.

This feels so nostalgic. For a non native english speaker this reminds me of childhood when your parents watched a film in the other room But you just focused on playing and heard words you didnt understand in the other room.
I like how they also throw in some real words, because in real life, even though you don't understand the language, you always just understand a few words that they say.
Just relax, take time to know what you want to say in the moment and say it. Sometimes just slowing down is the best way. You’re still gunna be nervous, but you can learn to channel that nervousness into an optimal (good) stress.
This is definitely how they should have English speakers in movies when the protagonist is a non English speaker so the audience is just as clueless as the protagonist
Blind Sniper There was an old British sitcom called _’Allo ‘Allo!_ It was set in France and there was one character that could speak French but badly. The way they portrayed that in English was by having him say things like “Gadd mahrneeng!” I thought it was an interesting way of showing (to English speakers) how badly spoken French would sound to a French speaker.
The script and specifically the execution is super exceptional. For one, it's incredibly hard to intentionally talk respectable gibberish consistently for so long all while acting, and to add another layer of difficulty, they pronounced common words that even very very new non-English speakers know (what, today, swear words, ...) very clearly. So this is genuinely super close to how English sounds to non-English speakers that know the basics. But the execution was CLEAN.
@@beholdtheman3161I can't tell if you're joking, but just in case you aren't: no, this is not Dutch, nor any other language I speak. It also doesn't sound like Dutch, it sounds like English with an American accent, except most of the words are gibberish.
This sounds like some sort of science fiction story where a race of arthropod people are at war with humans and use a crustacean as a trap, and there is a request for military support for some sort of theocracy based around Mary Magdalene.
That acting was tremendous, it conveyed such a beautiful story. I really reaonated with that dedlated feeling the guy must have had at the end after realising he got too carried away by ego or something else, and how the woman must have felt so disappointed. Amazing directing as well, great music, and even the hurried tempo of the meal added to the tension. Amazing
This fucking video I swear. Every time I watch it I can feel my brain going "Whats happening? I feel like I should understand this but I don't. I don't like it."
The great thing here is that you can hear some actual words throughout the video. I'm not a native speaker, and i remember that when i was younger i would sometimes watch English videos with subtitles and sometimes i could hear some simple words, like "hi", "sure" and so on. Great detail

So true lmao .. I remember being in my native country and me and my dad making fun of how gibberish English sounded to us ...lol but look at me now ... who would of thought
The little bit of Ukrainian I learned from hearing my dad and his mother talking years ago. My dad would insert it constantly into their otherwise unintelligible conversations. "Знаєте... знаєте... знаєте." ("You know")
I love this. I love how English sounds to non-English speakers that’s so cool like it’s so cool to feel the fact that I can fully understand and comprehend English speech
English isn't my first language, but now I can't remember a time where I couldn't speak or understand it. I think this video is a great portrayal of how I might have heard english when I was little.
i have a memory from kindergarden where i didn't understand english and english sounded exactly the same except i just didn't understand anything. it's pretty weird
As an english speaker it feels like I SHOULD be understanding this and I'm just *not,* like I've heard them wrong or something, this is really well done
It makes me strain my brain trying to understand.. kinda gives me a headache trying to follow what they’re saying lol I feel like I should understand but I just DONT

This is exactly what it's like when two people are talking and you aren't paying attention for their whole conversation until they talk to you directly
Stephanie Fowler flipping yes! As a person who prefers one on one conversations over group chatter I take such issue with this. Like, I don't even care that I'm temporarily left out of the conversation, I just wanna know why I have suddenly lost the ability to comprehend my native tongue!
Stephanie Fowler lol...yeah and when people are arguing about something and you're thinking about something random and not paying attention...and suddenly they turn to you and say "Am I right?"
i understand the words coming out of their mouths, but since its all random it doesnt make sense so my brain is trying to create new words to understand what theyre saying its so weird
It’s April of 2024 when I wrote this comment. RUclips just randomly recommended it to me. I felt like I’ve watched this before… like maybe over 10 years ago. Crazy half memory I have of this.. but I’ve been speaking English since about 1st grade 1997
I didn't expect to get this many upvotes, I guess that speaks to just how good their acting really is. I hope the creators see this even though the video is 4 years old.
Why did I gaslight myself into understanding this? They were totally talking about dropping their car off at the mechanic and how the weeks been going but he mentioned a woman and totally revealed he was cheating. Like, his partner even made him a surprise pineapple (?) for a celebration too. Totally the story.
@Sylis TM not quite the case. It's common English sounds, which is why you hear actual words, but it's not just random words. It's actually very carefully scripted Except when she says "you fucking ass hole"

I was born in Greece. This video reminds of myself going to a restaurant with my whole family, we're talking grandparents, uncles, second and third grade relatives and all that. All the (at the time) children were sitting on their own tables and I was sometimes sitting kinda close to the wall where a TV was placed, playing shows that looked, sounded, felt and made no sense to me exactly like this one here. Even with subtitles. It was always such a strange experience.
For those wondering how this is literally gibberish yet it makes perfect sense somehow and sounds convincing to foreign speakers, there is actually a technique in theatre called "Grammelot" and these two have mastered the English version of it.
Makes sense because whenever I see these types of videos, it clearly takes skill to speak your language but not really speak your language. Idk how people do it
They are speaking half ass words, there is substance there, context, but the words are all messed up. You can hear him talk about working on something and she disagrees with how it was handled or perceived by others.
As an English speaker, It’s hilarious torture listening to this. It’s like listening to another language and only catching a few words, but not enough to make ANY sense of it at all! [Or when the water is running] Very well done.
So, do you understand what they are talking about or you don't understand everything? I thought that native speakers understand everything and always 🤨
+Zach Mask That's how I used to "understand" English before actually learning the language. And as a Brazilian, portuguese and english are veeery different languages
Miguel Almeida I bet. I attempted to learn French once...didn't go so well. Had a better time with Italian, slightly, but didn't have anyone to practice with.
+Zach Mask My mother speaks French sometimes so I can't understand what she's saying just because I help my father to learn English by speaking the language with him hahahaha
If I had to guess, the guy had forgotten her last birthday, so she was being passive aggressive about it and pointed it out when it was his. He replied something like "well, you didn't remember it's my birthday today, so it's a tie." To which, she promptly went and took the cake and stuff. But that's just my interpretation of the video. Might certainly be wrong.
If I'd show this to my parents they believe they'd really believe they're speaking regular english. They're spanish and yes, this is exactly how it sounds the first time lmao
When you hear Spanish for the first time it sounds like ''llama lama lama, eeeh...llama rococo súbito llama lama eeeeh....y no llama lama lama no llama lama''
This right here is acting. This is like a technique called grammelot where you use incoherent or nonsensical words but use tone, body language etc to portray a scene. Chances are you didnt understand a single sentence that was being said but you felt it. There was clearly a story to this and these two did it perfectly. It genuinely amazed me how they were able to move me in a scene where next to none of it was intelligible. Massive well done to these two
What I understood is that she did something he found suspicious, maybe he thought she was cheating, but turns out she was just buying stuff to celebrate his birthday ...? Yeah, no, I tried.
Ooo ok so I’m definitely looking into Grammelot now!! I fully agree that this is a great film. Haven’t stopped by this classic short in ages now but it has always lived in my brain rent free alongside Prisencolinensinainciusol 😂
That's actually a great idea. A friend of mine makes short films and she isn't an english native, I'll just send her this one because "I found it interesting". Just need to grab the mp4 so she can't turn on subtitles. Wonder if she'll just pretend to have understood the storyline, while I make up complete bullshit and watch her play along. Man, this idea is so nice, thanks.
As a non native speaker...this video is just genius. This is how English sounded for me when I started to learn it and knew only basic expressions. And this is how it rarely sounds to me now when I'm very tired and can't focus. Like you understand but not really and you wouldn't be able to explain what was said.
He said how his day was at work and she said how her day was. Then he said he had plans to do something Thursday but she got mad because he forgot their anniversary so he said what did I do now. Then he said explain to me what are you mad about now. I pay all the bills and all you do is complain. I work because I have to. Then she came out with the cake and said Effing ahole. Now he feels bad he forgot their anniversary lol
This is like when someone’s having a conversation in another room and you’re not really tuning into it but still hearing their words

The little bit of Ukrainian I learned from hearing my dad and his mother talking years ago. My dad would insert it constantly into their otherwise unintelligible conversations. "Знаєте... знаєте... знаєте." ("You know")
"Sure"
"Sounds good"
"How whats your day today"
"Here is Lays"
"Pipe wrench?"
"Yes, lettuce."
"Good last week."
"Not in gas tank."
one of the clearest lines i heard: "you F***ing *sshole
The script might be so messed up 😂
i swear i heard him say elton john at least ten times
I know right! 😂😂😂🤣😂
😂😂😂 yup
All they hear is Elton John.
This is some Damn good acting, considering that they aren't really saying anything
They're just rolling their words
I wonder how many takes it took for them to do this with a straight face
Maybe they wrote a real conversation and then translated it

I love this. I love how English sounds to non-English speakers that’s so cool like it’s so cool to feel the fact that I can fully understand and comprehend English speech
This is like when you can’t hear what someone said, so you ask them to repeat themself but you still just hear this
YES
EXACTLY MY THOUGHTS
My APD knows this
Yes haha
I would love to know what non American English would sound like to foreigners.
English isn't my first language, but now I can't remember a time where I couldn't speak or understand it. I think this video is a great portrayal of how I might have heard english when I was little.
I've worn glasses since 5th grade, and I also can't remember a time not being blind. It's strange yet also interesting.
@@AnOwlfie is this scene designed to be barely understandable but not quite?
i have a memory from kindergarden where i didn't understand english and english sounded exactly the same except i just didn't understand anything. it's pretty weird
it’s actually almost nostalgia
lit-eral-ly SAME
As an english speaker it feels like I SHOULD be understanding this and I'm just *not,* like I've heard them wrong or something, this is really well done
I felt the same way. It was really weird. Thought I should be able to understand it but just couldn't.
I could only understand like 2 words every second
It makes me strain my brain trying to understand.. kinda gives me a headache trying to follow what they’re saying lol I feel like I should understand but I just DONT
This is what things sound like for me with auditory processing disorder.
This is how it is when learning another language.

This is exactly what it's like when two people are talking and you aren't paying attention for their whole conversation until they talk to you directly
or when you don't have your hearing aids on/ too many people talking at once.
Stephanie Fowler holy crap very accurate
Similiar thing with music on radio. Until you really start paying attention, you might assume it's foreign language while it's your native language.
Stephanie Fowler flipping yes! As a person who prefers one on one conversations over group chatter I take such issue with this. Like, I don't even care that I'm temporarily left out of the conversation, I just wanna know why I have suddenly lost the ability to comprehend my native tongue!
Stephanie Fowler lol...yeah and when people are arguing about something and you're thinking about something random and not paying attention...and suddenly they turn to you and say "Am I right?"

I agree
It is usually like this

i understand the words coming out of their mouths, but since its all random it doesnt make sense so my brain is trying to create new words to understand what theyre saying its so weird
They are saying nothing...
林 me too

They said some words, just no sentences, so our brains try to fill in blanks and make sense of gibberish.
林 she definitely said fuckin asshole lol

It’s April of 2024 when I wrote this comment. RUclips just randomly recommended it to me. I felt like I’ve watched this before… like maybe over 10 years ago. Crazy half memory I have of this.. but I’ve been speaking English since about 1st grade 1997

I was your 1k like on this post
I didn't expect to get this many upvotes, I guess that speaks to just how good their acting really is. I hope the creators see this even though the video is 4 years old.
When i wasn't a fluent English speaker this is legit what English sounded like... I couldn't understand anything without subtitles
Same haha
I always wanted to know how I, as an English person sounded to non English speaking foreigners
Same , that shit ‘s scary
Still relevant to British accent
yep...same here....still cant after 10 years ....still need the subtitles....
Why did I gaslight myself into understanding this? They were totally talking about dropping their car off at the mechanic and how the weeks been going but he mentioned a woman and totally revealed he was cheating. Like, his partner even made him a surprise pineapple (?) for a celebration too. Totally the story.
this sounds exactly like English but I can’t understand ANYTHING
they sound like they’re ACTUALLY SPEAKING SENTENCES THAT MAKE SENSE.
EXACTLY LIKE I FEEL LIKE I KNOW THE GIST OF IT.... but not exactly
@Sylis TM not quite the case. It's common English sounds, which is why you hear actual words, but it's not just random words. It's actually very carefully scripted
Except when she says "you fucking ass hole"

And “You fucking asshole”
And "so"

I was born in Greece. This video reminds of myself going to a restaurant with my whole family, we're talking grandparents, uncles, second and third grade relatives and all that. All the (at the time) children were sitting on their own tables and I was sometimes sitting kinda close to the wall where a TV was placed, playing shows that looked, sounded, felt and made no sense to me exactly like this one here. Even with subtitles. It was always such a strange experience.
For those wondering how this is literally gibberish yet it makes perfect sense somehow and sounds convincing to foreign speakers, there is actually a technique in theatre called "Grammelot" and these two have mastered the English version of it.
Wait, do you mean that this is not understandable language??
Makes sense because whenever I see these types of videos, it clearly takes skill to speak your language but not really speak your language. Idk how people do it
They are speaking half ass words, there is substance there, context, but the words are all messed up. You can hear him talk about working on something and she disagrees with how it was handled or perceived by others.

The conversations in my dreams make sense in the dream but not when I’m awake
there on mute, but i can understand there words
As an English speaker, It’s hilarious torture listening to this.
It’s like listening to another language and only catching a few words, but not enough to make ANY sense of it at all!
[Or when the water is running]
Very well done.
It's basically like watching these Hindi and Tagalog (Filipino) tech videos that have English titles and random English words mixed in
@@pankozahindi tutorials r gold tho
FRRR, this is how i feel listening to English
Nah fr
So, do you understand what they are talking about or you don't understand everything? I thought that native speakers understand everything and always 🤨
The fact that I catch one or two words and don't get the rest really bothers me.
+Zach Mask that's how it is when you hear French or Spanish I'm sure. think about it.
+Zach Mask That's how I used to "understand" English before actually learning the language. And as a Brazilian, portuguese and english are veeery different languages
Miguel Almeida I bet. I attempted to learn French once...didn't go so well. Had a better time with Italian, slightly, but didn't have anyone to practice with.
+Zach Mask My mother speaks French sometimes so I can't understand what she's saying just because I help my father to learn English by speaking the language with him hahahaha
+Zach Mask welcome to my world,dont get me wrong, 10 years ago i didnt know shit and i can say that this is exactly how it is
00:47 pounds good
Forget the jumbled English. I want to know why she's so upset.
What I can get from it is that he cheated on her or something of the sort.
If I had to guess, the guy had forgotten her last birthday, so she was being passive aggressive about it and pointed it out when it was his. He replied something like "well, you didn't remember it's my birthday today, so it's a tie." To which, she promptly went and took the cake and stuff.
But that's just my interpretation of the video. Might certainly be wrong.
its because why would you request soldier from magdelene nation? it's common sense.
i wanna know what the hell he did
Mettatonyx It’s not what he did. It’s what he didn’t do.
This is how it feels like when you turn off subtitles even on english shows
I used to watch X factor USA with subtitles on back in 2013.
This
I usually just see this on pirated movies without subtitles I can't hear anything up unless I go to the cinema then I hear everything perfectly

I thought I'd had a stroke watching this. I didn't get it at first. It is so well done.
This right here is acting. This is like a technique called grammelot where you use incoherent or nonsensical words but use tone, body language etc to portray a scene. Chances are you didnt understand a single sentence that was being said but you felt it. There was clearly a story to this and these two did it perfectly. It genuinely amazed me how they were able to move me in a scene where next to none of it was intelligible. Massive well done to these two
I understood when she called him a funding asshole.
That aside the acting really sucked me in. Was superb
The guy isn't even an actor - he's one of the two guys who wrote it. The woman is an actor they hired.
What I understood is that she did something he found suspicious, maybe he thought she was cheating, but turns out she was just buying stuff to celebrate his birthday ...?
Yeah, no, I tried.
Ooo ok so I’m definitely looking into Grammelot now!! I fully agree that this is a great film. Haven’t stopped by this classic short in ages now but it has always lived in my brain rent free alongside Prisencolinensinainciusol 😂

So youre a psychological tormenter.

That's actually a great idea. A friend of mine makes short films and she isn't an english native, I'll just send her this one because "I found it interesting". Just need to grab the mp4 so she can't turn on subtitles. Wonder if she'll just pretend to have understood the storyline, while I make up complete bullshit and watch her play along. Man, this idea is so nice, thanks.

X same... I understood... But i was like wait what did they actually say?
As a non native speaker...this video is just genius. This is how English sounded for me when I started to learn it and knew only basic expressions. And this is how it rarely sounds to me now when I'm very tired and can't focus. Like you understand but not really and you wouldn't be able to explain what was said.
He said how his day was at work and she said how her day was. Then he said he had plans to do something Thursday but she got mad because he forgot their anniversary so he said what did I do now. Then he said explain to me what are you mad about now. I pay all the bills and all you do is complain. I work because I have to. Then she came out with the cake and said Effing ahole. Now he feels bad he forgot their anniversary lol
