I work in Japan and sometimes I use English and everytime I open my mouth foreigners customers are like “are you Italian” 🤣I want to say no I’m Japanese ahah I don’t like my strong accent xD
I am Italian, the older generations do not speak English at all, with some exceptions. The younger generations studied English at school, somebkdy speaks better but in general you cannot compare our average level in English with the level one finds in Northen Europe.
In Naples I found many people who spoke Spanish very very well. 😮 this language is very popular in that city. Maybe because of Maradona? 😁
Do you guys generally watch RUclips videos in English? What percent?
I do. 😄
Is it possible to type in English without knowing how to speak it?
Hai presente la materia scolastica "storia"?? Se la studi forse capirai che non è per Maradona@@dadep85
Guarda che l'inglese è la lingua più parlata al mondo con 3 miliardi di persone che la parlano, secondo un censimento della Commissione Europea il 67% degli europei parla in inglese, non solo nel nord Europa, anche nell'Europa centrale e anche nell'est Europa (anche se nell'est Europa meno, ma comunque alcuni paesi arrivano al 50% come la Polonia).
you need to work on not cutting people off when they're answering your questions.
Honestly Italian language is sexier than french language
sono un cinese ma sono completamente d'accordo con lei
Looove their accents omg
You are amazing. Seriously impressive.
Man, in fact, anglophones have an absolute duty to respect other cultures and speak other languages, because not always, and even most people, they don't know how to speak English, so Anglophones have to turn around and speak other languages and not expect that others speak simple English like this, that's how world listening works.
My first language is Spanish, and English is exclusively for work , however I’ve always felt an affinity for Italian, I’ll learn it one day 🤗
That guy is an english teacher? Damn 😂
ik, our italy is so messed up with english
In Italy, the average level of English proficiency amongst the adult population is lower than most other European countries. Many older Italians cannot speak any English at all.
Unlike France, however, there is no cultural aversion to English in Italy.
So Italian locals who were born after 1980 will probably be able to speak English, at least to a decent standard. But making an effort to speak as much Italian as you can will always be appreciated.
I speak Spanish (my native language), English, Portuguese, German and Russian fluently. I love languages and spend much time and energy learning them... but for me it is terribly obnoxious the pressure that the Anglo-Saxon world (and many people who are not even from that world) makes to the rest of people to speak English. Leave people alone and respect other cultures...
voce como br me da orgulho, meu ingles ja ta okay, estou partindo pro frances agora. tem alguma dica? haha
The start of video makes me give you this comment and advice. I started with English at the age of 3. Why? All software at the time was in english and if I wanted to play games and use software I had to understand english. So I learned by playing RPG games and using audiovisal software for my creations. This principle is called learn by playing, and it is extremly effective, because if you are having fun as you learn you remember faster and lack resistance which makes you remember time you was forcing yourrself to learn rather than stuff you learn. So learn by playing, it is effective and lots of fun.
The answer is NO. Only in tourist places and among the young you'll find some italians able to maintain a decent conversation in english. In small, rural areas, forget it. Italy is probably one the worst places in Europe to communicate in english, nor even in France it's so bad.
in all rural Europe you will struggle to find someone able to maintain a conversation in english. Trust me I lived in rural Germany and they are usually really good but not so good in small towns.
I was able to speak English in Milan, they were above average, especially the young Italian girls.
E meno male dovete essere voi stranieri che venite in Italia a parlare italiano
Not always true
French got angry at me for speaking english
That one dude lived in LA for 9 years, of course he also learned Spanish lol 😅
me encanta este tipo de videoo
Curto vcs languageboost! Top!
Sou brasileiro! Morro de vontade de fazer fazer o jumpstart french de vcs mas a compra é somente em dollar. Não tenho cartão internacional e a conversão pro real fica bem caro.
Poderiam fazer uma promo pra nós brazucas EIN Lucas e Fabrício!
Vlwwww!! Likeeee
What qualifies someone as “speaking” a language?
In Italy we learn english as if it were mathematics. They don't show us how native speakers speak the language and so we learn pronunciations and everything else from our teachers. On top of that, english is spoken in a different way compared to italian, so it often happens that we mix the two languages (maybe it happened to me now). Also we keep our italian accent when speaking english, because again, they don't show us how native speakers use the language.
It took me 3/4 years to learn english by watching videos on youtube, and yet i still make mistakes when speaking the language. Sometimes i wish the world's lingua franca wasn't english but a romance language like spanish or portuguese.
😂 essa menina ❤
Entrei no site de voces para ver os idiomas e não tem o ingles. Que pena.
Personalmente nella mia vita,mi vergogno di non conoscere la Lingua Napoletana e Spagnola,nella versione Internazionale. Saluti da "Spaccanapoli"! 😊 Senza offesa per nessuno,sia chiaro! Anzi tutt'altro! Il massimo rispetto, per la lingua Inglese.
In small, rural areas in America, it is also difficult to find people who speak proper English. They speak something similar to English, but it seems only the other locals really understand it. 🤣🤣
Can anyone tell me why Italians speak Spanish with an Anglo Saxon accent ??!!
They don't, at all. Look for interviews in Spanish of Laura Pausini, Carlo Ancelotti, Christian Panucci...
@@zaqwsx23 you can tell that Spanish isn’t their first language
@@lizsalazar7931 That's because they are Italians and speak Spanish with an Italian accent, not with an English one.
@@zaqwsx23 it seems like an English accent
@@lizsalazar7931 English accent means: vowel reductions on atonic syllables (Italian is instead a syllable-timed language) and typical English pronunciation of the letters R, T and D (in Italian they are pronounced like in Spanish).
This is an example of an Italian journalist speaking Spanish: ruclips.net/video/ZRQbfJXSaBE/видео.html
Orgoglioso di non parlare l'inglese ❤😊
Why women go out just wearing a bra?
It’s not a bra
Its a bikini bro. They are probably going to the beach

It 's a new trend, welcome to this trashy ultra feminist world !
