  • Опубликовано: 12 май 2019
  • Language challenge between a Swedish guy and a Romanian girl. I'm trying to speak Romanian and she's speaking Swedish. She is actually quite fluent in Swedish whereas my Romanian could use some lessons. We filmed this in Stockholm Old Town, on Stortorget outside the Nobel museum.
    Check the playlist for more language videos: • Language Challenge
    My channel is packed with Swedish tutorials and language challenges where you can learn everything from nouns and verbs to grammar and special Swedish words. I also talk about places in Sweden and where you as a tourist can visit. I have made youtube videos for over 10 years and 10 Swedish Words started with me explaining 10 Swedish words that don't exist in English. You can also find videos about Norse Mythology, my deep-talk series Good Talk (which now has its own channel) and other info about Sweden and Swedish culture.

    Romanian is such a beautiful language, my friend from high school studied it and now she works as a translator in a company here in Serbia.
    Serbia loves its neighbours.

    The romanian language is latin , a member of the romance languages family - italian ,spanish,french,portuguese ...the closest language to us is ...italian (77% share lexical similarity) , the name of the country came from the italian capitale - ROMA ... it is correct to say we are like "italians from east with a little bit of slavic accent" ,because we are surrounded by slavic countries and along the centuries we loaned slavic words in our language.
    TIP: so ,if you know well italian language ,then you will learn fast romanian language ,also is available viceversa ,if you know romanian well ,then you will learn fast the italian language ;)

I try to learn swedish and my english is helping me very much, but I am also fluent in french and that helps me to understand other latin languages, as Italian, spanish and portuguese.

      And the final vowel differs. In Romanian it's ă, not a. By the way, I'm Romanian and I teach Spanish. Depending on where you're from, ci may not be pronounced si, either. Are you from Latin America or from Spain?

      Nope, he's right, compared to most everyone (and especially other latin language speaking fellows) it feels that if you took the time, you'd really blow this thing out of the water.
      Probably because swedish has the same points of articulation of sounds, a similar cadence, and a lot of vocals (which include ours).
      Congrats.
