Fun fact from someone who works in the Cherokee Nation - Cherokee actually is no longer a dying language, nor is it a foreign language (since Natives are the OG's)! Cherokee Nation is actually revitalizing their language through language immersion schools, CLMAP programs, as well as online classes. Wado!
If I remember correctly, Jaxon is an anime fan, so he probably imitated the pronunciation of some of what he heard in anime. That's sort of how I learned before taking formal classes.
When Jackson said “As long as it’s not Welsh” the whole time I was thinking of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (that’s a city name in Wales)
I’m learning Welsh and Norwegian and French and Swedish and Portuguese and German and many other languages, and I learned Dutch (advanced level / over 8.000 base words) in a few months, and am beginner level in Welsh, and it’s not true that they don’t have vowels, and also, the Y and W are considered vowels as well and are pronounced the same way as in English, and most Welsh words don’t look like the long city names at all, for example afon (river) and helygen (willow tree) and blodyn (flower) etc, and it’s a bit similar to Dutch in certain ways, like intonation and the vibe it gives and the CH sound that’s also used in Dutch, so I memorized over 450 Welsh words so far, and it’s definitely the easiest Celtic languages, and Breton is also very easy and like a mix of Welsh & French - it gets way easier once one learns all the pronunciation rules and enough words to recognise verbs and nouns and adjectives with their different endings!
And I can pronounce that long city name - the easiest way to learn how to say it is by learning each word / name that it is made of separately and the pronunciation rules!
I feel incredibly lucky and honoured to know a tiny bit of Xhosa. 🇿🇦 Xhosa is what Europeans used to call "The Click Language," bc they weren't able to produce the sounds. Everyone should look up "The Click Song," by Miriam Makeba 🎶
The Cherokee has a written vocabulary that has been around for a very long time and is one of the first written Indigenous languages written for the preservation of the Cherokee history and world events around them. It is being actively taught in order to preserve the language. I really wish a language app would work with people who speak Cherokee and make it more available to those outside the Tribe can learn it. As so many out there who can and do claim an ancestor of Cherokee descent, so do I and would love to learn the language so I can strengthen the connection to my ancestry.
This was a terrific idea for a video. I really hope you guys do more of this one for sure. Not only is it fun and funny to watch, but it's educational as well which is always awesome.
Arabic has so many different accents. Some words are pronounced differently among Arab countries. You can’t judge a person’s pronunciation by one single Tiktok video.
4:07 Baklava has an Turkish origin and we read it like they did in the video before she read. I don't know where she is from and I get the reason why she read it like that but we say it like "baklava" in Turkish
Yeah I don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say “baklewa” before… my family is from Syria, and we’ve always pronounced it “baklawa” or I know others who say “baklava”. It’s kinda cool that it’s pronounced a bit differently in Turkish and in Arabic lol
@@Stella_-jj8bx Actually, I thought the reason is that "long elif" letter that we don't have in our alphabet now but again, it was surprising for me. By the way, I think the reason of reading differences of our languages are "vav" letter in Arabic is stronger than "v". If ı wrote the letters, sorry for that. I don't know how to write Arabic letters in English
@@shahadjaber8882 I personally think that it is kind of sad that they only put food names for Arabic because there are so many beautiful words but like you said I still love the React
You’re not saying it “wrong”, you’re just saying it Americanised. People in other countries also have their way of saying American names/things based on their accent derived from the language they speak
Lol as a Xhosa person from South Africa, I wish that was done by a person who can pronounce the words and the clicks correctly. Enjoyed the video though, I was also trying out some languages. Fun!!!
I would love to see you do this again and do GA from Ghana Mikasuki- Seminole Indians Polish- Poland Hawaiian - Hawaii Nahuatl- the Aztec language whis is still spoken by the nahua people. Gaelic- Ireland Yucatan (if need be the easier Yucatan spanish) - Mexico Dhivehi- Maldives Mandarin Chinese- China Xhosa- South Africa Australian English- Australia Tuvaluan- Tuvalu
Baklava depends on which country... because so many countries make it... it's not simply Arabic... if it's being spelled transliterated it is "baklaawa"... but in turkish baklava world be pronounced "baklawa"... not like Arabic at all.. in I'm sure there's a different way in Greece...
This was so fun to watch 😁 and they all did a wonderful job. Now imagine if Sharon had to pronounce these words in these languages this video would be way funnier 😂 Also hope we get to see more of Benison he’s probably the favourite new reactor who always does his best.. P.S if REACT ever does a part 2 and the reactors had to pronounce words in the language of Khmer I know that they would struggle a lot and I’ll be here for it 🤣
Love seeing how much they love languages! Jaxon said “Anime saaaave me! 行きましょう！” 🤣 Those transliterations weren’t great though. shitsureishimasu. There should be an s in the tsu that’s why most of them got it wrong if they can’t read the hiragana for つ. And the Cherokee phonetics weren’t helping either. Did Y’all give them the transliterations for the Arabic? Cuz she just put the English version on screen. The و in baklava is a w in Arabic but a v in Persian. So the Arabic transliteration should be baqlaawa.
Oh yeah and there shouldn’t be a u after masu or desu or an i in mashita if they’re actually trying to help people pronounce things because those vowels aren’t voiced here. Mas, des, and mashta. Shoulda done a French one too instead of Spanish cuz Americans are terrrrrrrible at French pronunciations 🤣
I'm Filipino and the word nakakapagbagabag makes my tongue twist😬 Also try this some tagalog words and tongue twisters too: Bituka, Botika, Butike(means, Spleen, Pharmacy,Lizard),Pitumpu't pitong puting putong ipinirito ng puting patong papito-pito(77 white puto been cooked by white geeses while whistling), Minekaniko ni Monico ang Minico ni Monica(Monico fixes Monica's Minico)that will be all😁
This gave me flashbacks to my Afrikaner dad laughing himself into an asthma attack over my pronunciation when I was going over holiday plans to NL lmao I absolutely agree it would be hilarious (the worst imo were ui words like huis and the double hard g eg in prinsengracht which I've heard is often a tell of a native vs learned speaker?)
@@eden.nd. yeah the g's are the hardest to pronounce for not Dutch people. Especially because not every g is the same in every word hhahaha. Dutch is a very hard language, even if you do speak it yourself😂 I mean, I'm better in English then Dutch most of the times😂
Yes please!!! I live in the Slavic Village neighborhood of East Cleveland. There is a huge variety of different languages spoken here. I would like to learn Polish as there seems to be quite a few people around here that are Polish.
technically in italian "macchina" means "machine" so it can be used in many other context like "macchina da cucire" = sewing machine, "macchina da scrivere" = typewriter, or "macchina da caffè" = coffee machine, but used alone the word is more often used to refer to cars in general though we also use auto or automobile (which has a different pronunciation in italian), but colloquially macchina is the most common word. :)
as someone who speaks farsi, i was certainly surprised to see it included in the video. the way they separated the words made me cringe a bit tho lmaoo 😭
Jaxon's pronunciation for Japanese is so on point. Won't be surprised if he consumes a lot of Japanese media
He does, he have said so in several episodes
Yeah I grew up in a Japanese and English speaking household and even my pronunciation is rocker then his lol
You know the video is going to be great when jaxon and jayka are paired together!!!
Them two together and any time Sharon is in the videos then ya know it's going to be a great vid!!

Pleasantly surprised when I saw Māori come up. Loved Jaxons comment about our accent 🙂 - Ka pai te mahi!
Omg, I can’t believe I was featured in this!! 😮 Thank youu 🥰 I am the one pronouncing the dishes in Arabic 🤣😃
that’s so cool! you are gorgeous btw 🫶 Mashalla
You should have chosen words of arabic origin. Baklava is not the arabic word.
Jaxon's Japanese pronunciation is pretty good. He knows not to stress the u in su and the i in shi
That's crazy yall included Te Reo Māori, Im actually from Opotiki!! Its a small town on the East Coast of the North Island!
any time Jaxon & Jayka are together, it's worth watching.
There Hindi was so perfect 😄
Namaste was perfectly said.
Jackson watches anime confirmed😂
Me too , Hindi and Japanese was kinda easy for me 😅 love anime tho
Jaxon 100 percent watches his anime subbed
As is right and proper. ;)
@@nekonoai agreed 👍
Bruh immediately i could tell Jaxon watches anime 😹😹
jaxon`s japanese pronunciation is on point!!
Jaxon is soo good with Korean and Japanese. I bet he watches anime and k-dramas.
Dang Jaxon's spelling at Japanese is quite good
Far as I remember, Jaxon watches anime so he probably tried imitating the natural accent.
Next time do Hebrew, Armenian, Scottish, Malawian, Finnish, Latin, Romanian, Ethiopian, and Jamaican.
I was thinking the same, throw in some Irish or Scottish. I'd be lights out.
10:08 no one will convince me that wasn't hot lmao
No one will convince me that im not in love with Jaxon
I love how they bleeped all the swears EXCEPT @9:13 they guy drops the F bomb lol not bleeped at all 🤣🤣🤣 kudos to the editor.
Did Jaxon meant latinamerica for the mexican spanish? 😹 bc in latin america we all have different accents and words LOL typical gringo tho haha
Jaxon is def an anime fan- lol
Jaxon is my fav and he’s so handsome!
JAXON'S JAPANESE THO!!! Amazing Job Jax

Also, the special name Sara only reflects me, and must be changed, and also Ley and color related words like tan cannot be in names either!
And I can pronounce that long city name - the easiest way to learn how to say it is by learning each word / name that it is made of separately and the pronunciation rules!
It sounds like... Sanvayr - p
12:42 damn, Jaxon seemed real confident with Italian and Jayka got more than he did (at least from the totals they show here)
Korean team with Jair, was dope
Jaxon was beating himself up being Italian and not getting it right
I feel incredibly lucky and honoured to know a tiny bit of Xhosa. 🇿🇦 Xhosa is what Europeans used to call "The Click Language," bc they weren't able to produce the sounds. Everyone should look up "The Click Song," by Miriam Makeba 🎶
Jaxons pronunciation on the dowajuseyo was perfect!
Jayka and Jaxon slay
Tortilla, Salsa, and Paella? Those are the Spanish words?? lol could've been a little harder
Right
The way the xhosa tik toker said iposi was actually incorrect because that pronunciation is for a hut rather than a post office🙃
Jaxon looks great in glasses
The way jaxon produced those Japanese words make me think he is a weeb or at has a good grasp of how to speak Japanese
I found Xhosa and Cherokee the most difficult. Xhosa was for the clicking sound.
Great job to all, especially Jaxon and Benison!

I feel like Jaxon nailed the Japanese round because he watches anime
Jaxon was spitting when he said the “spain is the British form of Mexican Spanish” 7:46
I didn't see him spit.
Jair sounds like she knows Japanese.
This was a terrific idea for a video. I really hope you guys do more of this one for sure. Not only is it fun and funny to watch, but it's educational as well which is always awesome.
We need second video but now please include Slavic languages.
next time please do the Xhosa part from an actual Xhosa person from South Africa, that was horrible.
I could not agree more, that was not it, I'm not even Xhosa and that still hurt me to the core
That's because they don't know WHAT XHOSA IS!!!

Jaxon probably watch a lot of animes. He nailed those phrases the first try.
Not probably. He does. He's mentioned it in multiple videos. In fact, I think he's in almost every video that has something to do with anime.
Now try Florida names. 🤣. Kissimmee, homosassa, Dunedin, Apalachicola, Micanopy, okeechobe, palatka, steinhatchee, Port St. Lucie, Valparaiso, Wausau, wewahitchka, weeki watchi, apopka.
