Its a minority language from spain, spoken by like 300 000 people i think. It doesn't belong in the indoeuropean language family similar to hungarian, estonian or finish, so it's hard to understand it for basically any user of other european language. It's called bask or euskera and some basic words are agur for hi, bay for yes and es for no (I think).
@@retryoxx8340 it's actually even cooler than estonian, hungarian and finish.

5:57 -- An older gentleman stumps them with Basque. A good, best-selling thriller book where knowing the Basque language is a major plot point: Shibumi (published in 1979). The author is Trevanian (a pen name) who had several best-selling thrillers. Our hero/protagonist knows Japanese, Chinese, Russian, English, and Basque. He learned Basque for a very unusual reason and later moved to that part of Spain. Below is a plot summary I found... "Nicholai Hel is the world’s most wanted man. Born in Shanghai during the chaos of World War I, he is the son of an aristocratic Russian mother and a mysterious German father and is the protégé of a Japanese Go master. Hel survived the destruction of Hiroshima [incorrect unless they mean the general destruction in Japan] to emerge as the world’s most artful lover and its most accomplished-and well-paid-assassin. Hel is a genius, a mystic, and a master of language and culture, and his secret is his determination to attain a rare kind of personal excellence, a state of effortless perfection known only as shibumi. Now living in an isolated mountain fortress with his exquisite mistress [actually concubine], Hel is unwillingly drawn back into the life he’d tried to leave behind when a beautiful young stranger arrives at his door, seeking help and refuge. It soon becomes clear that Hel is being tracked by his most sinister enemy-a supermonolith of international espionage known only as the Mother Company. The battle lines are drawn: ruthless power and corruption on one side, and on the other . . . shibumi."

It's part of an ancient song, sang when saying goodbye to someone really important to you. Also, as a curious thing, it was hard to identify the basque language since the pronunciation comes from the french side of the basque country, since the "r" is told like an uvular sound.
@@_dqpb_ I'm guessing he was just from french Basque, and knew a little song, or some random words and saw his chance. Might also be why he refused the money, because he felt like he cheated them a little

It's quite challenging if you come to indonesia, especially in Java we have so many languages and dialects that brings this challenge to the next level. Great video btw
Lol, the girl who said "toš shoď tu baranicu" (4:21), it actually wasn't really Czech language, it is some kind of dialect, that even me, as a Czech, had a trouble understanding 😂. BTW, what she said means: Take that fur hat off 🤣
@@user_new_c he doesn't speak, he just knows some words, that's why he couldn't understand. Also in other videos he doesn't understand people who speak Turkish and just says random words.
The thing I find interesting, is the Azerbaijani being mistaken for Armenian. Most of the viewers must have missed that episode, but I thing it is worth looking deeper into. I think that if they come across a language that they are not familiar with, they try to guess that language based on other factors such as appearance or sound familiarity. This just shows how much we look and sound like each other in strangers' eyes. I am an Armenian, and I have been told that Azerbaijan is our enemy and that we MUST hate them, but growing up I just cannot unsee our similarities. I beg every single azeri and turk who is reading this comment, please reconsider your views on us, armenians, we have been neighbours for hundreds of years and we are almost the same at this point. Just imagine the heights we could conquer if we cooperated. And for any Armenian who is reading this comment, just so you know I am the second Kharabakh war veteran and I thought A LOT about this over the past 2 years.
im an istanbulite turk and theres actually a lot of armenians here in istanbul. they descent from western armenians of istanbul and western provinces. my friend told me that they actually speak western armenian and she learned eastern armenian at school. many celebrities as well, one of my favourite singers is hayko cepkin, look him up! amazing music. hes very popular here. i grew up so integrated with appreciating armenian cultural differences with turkish, mainly because my father’s close childhood friend who is also our neighbour is armenian, that it comes natural to me. loved listening to him speaking in armenian, though that it was so cool! i loved eating the easter bread and looked forward to easter so they would make it and give me one! this obviously isnt the average experience but i can definitely say that istanbulites, however istanbul has been corrupt these past 20 years, appreciate the armenian existence in istanbul. especially secular turks, which id argue that actually make up the most of turks in istanbul and izmir. my friend that i mentioned went to one of the armenian high schools in istanbul and shes studying polsir right now, she really believes that with the new generation armenia and turkey can have diplomatic ties and its her dream to be the first consulate general of turkey to yerevan. its not a long shot, with us taking responsibility& facing past and your likes calming a little bit down, because i see a huge amount of demonisation sadly, and understanding why the other side feels so attacked, the new generation will make huge differences. hoping you the best mate❤
He heard "Salam" and for some reason thought Armenian, so I don't really think he's that familiar with the factors you're talking about when it comes to our region. Lingualizer did say "no I think it must be Arabic or something", at least. Also, brother, don't beg. Most will just laugh at your "humiliation", even if it's just a turn of phrase.
Hi lingualizer! You make great content and have inspired me to learn 5 languages (german, english, spanish, french and italian) and have inspired me to learn all countries of the world
Can confirm I've seen people win Wouter's challenges with these languages, and I think Lingualizer speaks a few slavic languages as well as German, French and Spanish.
Wouter is a really cool guy, I met him in the Netherlands once. We spoke Portuguese, English and French! It was really nice, one of my coolest experiences when traveling
It was mostly European languages, I feel like they’d probably speak some of the other popular Asian languages too (Like Mandarin, Japanese etc.) seeing how they knew Korean
The first group couldn't believe they've recorded for a video. They were so excited.😂 The one thing I don't understand is why the most of people say the most common word in hungarian, as the guy said 'szia' which means hi in english. I know none of them spoke the language so the children won, but to start a phrase with a greeting form in a challenge like this is an instant fail the most of times.
Bro I speak arabic and tried to speak what you wrote there and kept Wondering what's going on why can't I understand it I forgot Farsi is also written with Arabic 🤦🤦🤦
@@aminekamili3586 they teach us Arabic and English in highschool so kinda yeah, some normal stuff like greetings and.., je parle Anglais, Arabic, Farsi et français.
Just for curiosity: The fisrt Albanian said: “Between two mountains the drum thunders” The second one said: “Will you go home?”- he stuttered at one word
As a hebrew speaker I must say I was really surprised he knew hebrew!! That's amazing! Also, he didn't say at the end "you are awesome" but rather "what's up brother".
As the famous meme says: everybody gangsta until the Bask speaker comes. :D I didn't even expect that you'll come around the Bask speaker, this language isn't well-known and has few speakers, as I have read... It is beautiful that you had an opportunity to hear it suddenly, like that, during the video filming.
This is my first time seeing him with lingualizer. When I heard his voice, I thought I recognized it. After searching, I found out that he was the same guy who interviewed that 13-year-old girl.
The Euskara is spoken in part of France and Spain, in Spain in Navarra and in Pais Vasco and in France in the provinces of Lapurdi, Behe nafarroa and Zuberoa
4:20 im czech and i didnt understand her at first, she said it on purpose in a way you couldnt understand, its a very strong dialect probably already at the border of slovakia maybe even slovakian already to be honest, this is really not how normal czech people talk
Man, his "Mulțumesc" (which means thank you in romanian) is PERFECT. It's impressive when somebody pronounces a word perfectly in our language, because if you are not from Romania it's very hard, I think harder than other languages. Even tho in theory it's easy, other people trying to speak it sound very obvious and funny :))

Also, as a curious thing, it was hard to identify the basque language since the pronunciation comes from the french side of the basque country, since the "r" is told like an uvular sound.
i've never seen a dialect in which starting a phrase with agur is valid.
@@_dqpb_ what?
Sounded similar to french basque country yeah, as a Basque native speaker I didn't get what he was saying until I listened to it a couple more times
I am native and I understood, I am sexy
@@_dqpb_ I'm guessing he was just from french Basque, and knew a little song, or some random words and saw his chance. Might also be why he refused the money, because he felt like he cheated them a little
The man who tried English and German clearly was Russian but was probably ashamed to speak it because not many of other people really study it.
And he actually came up to them speaking hebrew. The man is a polyglot
@@lorenzosignorini3288 he's possibly a person who escaped the soviet union in late 80's and early 90's, a lot of older folks i know from that time are polyglots and speak at least 3 languages.
4:22 „Tož shoď tu baranicu“ is in Czech language, but in some dialect, probably from region close to Slovakia
means „Take off that [fur] hat.“
4:34 „Chalani date si čučoriedky?“ means „Boys, would you like some blueberries?“
thanks for translating lol
yeah, the "tož shoď tu beranicu" sounds a lot like the moravian dialect.
Brňenskej hantec
Keby chalan zajebal...chalani,date si jafuri,tak by som vedel, aj z ktoreho regionu je.
It's quite challenging if you come to indonesia, especially in Java we have so many languages and dialects that brings this challenge to the next level.
Great video btw
Lol, the girl who said "toš shoď tu baranicu" (4:21), it actually wasn't really Czech language, it is some kind of dialect, that even me, as a Czech, had a trouble understanding 😂. BTW, what she said means: Take that fur hat off 🤣
Same, what dialect were you thinking?
Same, I didn't realize it was Czech until she said it. I'm thinking this is the "Slovácko" dialect (or somewhere else in Moravia).
@@Samo762 Yeah or maybe Valašsko, I don't know, I live in east Moravia, but I haven't heard anybody speak like that😂

Oh boy, that girl who spoke Hungarian had a pretty heavy German accent.... But I've always wondered if he speaks Hungarian, now I feel kinda special
01:35 i don't speak Azerbaijani but because i am Turkish i understood what she said. She just said hi how are you.
selam gaga diyor ya gaga ne
@@eminaghazada sağol reis
I think the guy on the left speaks a little bit turkish so i expected him to also understand azerbaijani
@@user_new_c he doesn't speak, he just knows some words, that's why he couldn't understand. Also in other videos he doesn't understand people who speak Turkish and just says random words.
@@GG99999 i guess that's what he does with other languages as well, i also noticed it.
The thing I find interesting, is the Azerbaijani being mistaken for Armenian. Most of the viewers must have missed that episode, but I thing it is worth looking deeper into.
I think that if they come across a language that they are not familiar with, they try to guess that language based on other factors such as appearance or sound familiarity. This just shows how much we look and sound like each other in strangers' eyes. I am an Armenian, and I have been told that Azerbaijan is our enemy and that we MUST hate them, but growing up I just cannot unsee our similarities. I beg every single azeri and turk who is reading this comment, please reconsider your views on us, armenians, we have been neighbours for hundreds of years and we are almost the same at this point. Just imagine the heights we could conquer if we cooperated. And for any Armenian who is reading this comment, just so you know I am the second Kharabakh war veteran and I thought A LOT about this over the past 2 years.
im an istanbulite turk and theres actually a lot of armenians here in istanbul. they descent from western armenians of istanbul and western provinces. my friend told me that they actually speak western armenian and she learned eastern armenian at school. many celebrities as well, one of my favourite singers is hayko cepkin, look him up! amazing music. hes very popular here. i grew up so integrated with appreciating armenian cultural differences with turkish, mainly because my father’s close childhood friend who is also our neighbour is armenian, that it comes natural to me. loved listening to him speaking in armenian, though that it was so cool! i loved eating the easter bread and looked forward to easter so they would make it and give me one! this obviously isnt the average experience but i can definitely say that istanbulites, however istanbul has been corrupt these past 20 years, appreciate the armenian existence in istanbul. especially secular turks, which id argue that actually make up the most of turks in istanbul and izmir. my friend that i mentioned went to one of the armenian high schools in istanbul and shes studying polsir right now, she really believes that with the new generation armenia and turkey can have diplomatic ties and its her dream to be the first consulate general of turkey to yerevan. its not a long shot, with us taking responsibility& facing past and your likes calming a little bit down, because i see a huge amount of demonisation sadly, and understanding why the other side feels so attacked, the new generation will make huge differences. hoping you the best mate❤
He heard "Salam" and for some reason thought Armenian, so I don't really think he's that familiar with the factors you're talking about when it comes to our region. Lingualizer did say "no I think it must be Arabic or something", at least.
Also, brother, don't beg. Most will just laugh at your "humiliation", even if it's just a turn of phrase.
Hi lingualizer! You make great content and have inspired me to learn 5 languages (german, english, spanish, french and italian) and have inspired me to learn all countries of the world
I'm French and I've learnt English and German at school and I can tell you French and German are difficult languages. Good luck!
The elderly man is the biggest gigachad I’ve seen yet

Asking if you are afraid of having an accent is the most german thing ever
Why?
@@balintkiss8741 history
I thought the most German thing was that one time when uhh....never mind
her question was so weird.
You shouldn't learn a langage because you will have an accent ? Who is afraid of having an accent ?
why tho ? could you explain a bit please ?
I am curious: I'd personally try Gaelic and Welsh on you two. Would I win any money?!
Can confirm I've seen people win Wouter's challenges with these languages, and I think Lingualizer speaks a few slavic languages as well as German, French and Spanish.
Thats what I was thinking
I watch all these videos hoping for a welsh dude to come along so I can feel special lol
@@leogriffith6196 same lol
Yeah I was thinking the same about trying Welsh if I ever saw them lol
Wouter is a really cool guy, I met him in the Netherlands once. We spoke Portuguese, English and French! It was really nice, one of my coolest experiences when traveling
this guy definately took the red pill to speak every language instead of the blue one to speak to animals
It was mostly European languages, I feel like they’d probably speak some of the other popular Asian languages too (Like Mandarin, Japanese etc.) seeing how they knew Korean
6:20 Sigma male refuses to take payment from intimidated betas.

The first group couldn't believe they've recorded for a video. They were so excited.😂
The one thing I don't understand is why the most of people say the most common word in hungarian, as the guy said 'szia' which means hi in english. I know none of them spoke the language so the children won, but to start a phrase with a greeting form in a challenge like this is an instant fail the most of times.
Damn he speaks Farsi too, I'm impressed actually.

He looked like he was gonnna give the Dutch guy the 20€ if he just finished the song. But then insurmountable disappointment
Just for curiosity:
The fisrt Albanian said: “Between two mountains the drum thunders”
The second one said: “Will you go home?”- he stuttered at one word
From Spain, proud to know how big is our language heritage, catalan, basque, spanish...i missed a bit of galician there, maybe next time.
better to be proud of it, because spain actively tried to make this languages disappear
@@MrTerapak Nahh Franco tried that. He does not represent the whole of our nation
As a hebrew speaker I must say I was really surprised he knew hebrew!! That's amazing!
Also, he didn't say at the end "you are awesome" but rather "what's up brother".
3:02 was speaking czech, he even said after
and 4:26 didn't sound like it at all bruh
LMFAO that first girl confirms all the German language stereotypes. 😂😂😂
0:49 It was at this moment, he knew, he's fxcked up.
Wow I really appreciate that you guessed that he speak polish. I'm from poland and I must listen to it 3 time to understand what he say.
Well, that might be because he was Czech, actually :D
As the famous meme says: everybody gangsta until the Bask speaker comes. :D
I didn't even expect that you'll come around the Bask speaker, this language isn't well-known and has few speakers, as I have read...
It is beautiful that you had an opportunity to hear it suddenly, like that, during the video filming.
you could say he Basqued in glory
OMG IM SO HAPPY WITH THIS COLLAB
really enjoyed this vid and both of your vids!
This is my first time seeing him with lingualizer. When I heard his voice, I thought I recognized it. After searching, I found out that he was the same guy who interviewed that 13-year-old girl.
It's pretty brave to play this game in Vienna not knowing Czech, Slovak, Hungarian or Slovenian
I am just waiting when someone will say "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipiscing elit." to one of these challenges.
get lucas from polymathy to challenge their latin
thats some really terrible latin wth
The elderly man says "agur jaunak, jaunak agur, agur t'erdi" which is basically a very rare and respectful way of saluting somewone.
0:37 that "szia, magyarul tanulok" was pretty good honestly, wasn't unnatural
Lingualizer The guy who spoke in Albanian said "ndërmjet dy bjeshkëve kërset tupani" which means between two mountains the drums collide/hit.
6:08 Basque is a language spoken in the south west of France
Mainly in Spain tho
The Basque Country is in Spain. The vast majority of people who speak Basque (Euskera)are in Spain
The Euskara is spoken in part of France and Spain, in Spain in Navarra and in Pais Vasco and in France in the provinces of Lapurdi, Behe nafarroa and Zuberoa
I've been waiting for someone to speak basque for so long.
The old man didn't need the money. He was already rich by heart. ❤
Very happy to hear a bit of basque ! Euskalduna
4:20 im czech and i didnt understand her at first, she said it on purpose in a way you couldnt understand, its a very strong dialect probably already at the border of slovakia maybe even slovakian already to be honest, this is really not how normal czech people talk
Not slovak at all. The only thing i understood was "baranicu".
6:47 subtitles said “you are awesome” but he said “מה קורה אחי” which basically translates to “‘sup dude”
No its "what's hapening bro"
@@yoyo777 It can be several things. “Sup dude”, “What’s up bro”, “How’s it going my guy” and all that mean the same thing
3:07 u said it was Polish but the kid was speaking Czech unfortunetly for him he left too early
I am Albanian and hearing the basque language was so badass.
Please do more of these, they're so great
I would love to take part in this, but I only speak English, German & a little bit of Swedish so I know I’d lose😂
4:02 He scammed y’all 🤣⚰️⚰️⚰️. That doesn’t make any sense.
Man, his "Mulțumesc" (which means thank you in romanian) is PERFECT. It's impressive when somebody pronounces a word perfectly in our language, because if you are not from Romania it's very hard, I think harder than other languages. Even tho in theory it's easy, other people trying to speak it sound very obvious and funny :))
I'm instantly a fan of that old man
