Warographics (one of Simon Whisler’s channels) has a 43-minute video about the Spanish American War.

I'm with you in that Abraham Lincoln is also my favorite present, and not just because I have the same birthday as him. February 12th.
Your English is fine Andre. The others can leave it since they don't understand the difficulties of speaking another language.
Oh ty 🙏
@@european-reacts you're welcome😊
@@european-reacts Your accent is thick, but I think that it is still more clear and understandable than the super deep south (I'm referring to very rural Texas to Mississippi) to me.
@@european-reactsyou speak better English than we can speak Portuguese 😂
I think his English is better now from the 1st video if his I watched last last year
A lot of the French in Louisiana were from Canada. The British expelled the Acadian French from areas in Canada especially New Brunswick. They fled south and settled in Louisiana.
The extended poem Evangeline by Longfellow tells the story of this migration.
@@What_Makes_Climate_Tick Thankyou, I will read it.
As an American, yes, it was tragic what happened with the Native Americans. Canada has some bad history with their natives, the Spanish did terrible things to the natives in central/south America. I believe Australia has some bad history with their aboriginal people. I'm not sure there's anywhere on earth that hasn't suffered some form of atrocity and conquering by one people or another.
Edit: I always watch until the end. 9.
Bad things have always happen because evil men don't have God true Christians don't kill people Christian are the ones against slavery and helped native Americans also know as Indians
Another inept Yankee one question number of natives in LATAM number of natives in U.S xenofobe ; U.S kill the vast part of indígenes an jail in reserves as animals .
True. Throughout history, native peoples have been pushed out or absorbed to make room for invaders. I'm thinking of the Vikings and Anglo Saxons who invaded Great Britain in particular. You cannot blame just one country or one culture.
@@cookielady7662 It has been that for basically all of history. You can not judge the past with your eyes from the present but should learn from the past to not let it happen again.
I'm not sure tragedy is the right word. That kind of implies a lack of intent. What happened to native Americans was monstrous. What continues to happen to the tribes is monstrous. It happens a lot, but that doesn't make it excusable. As US citizens we continue to benefit from the crimes of our forebears, we should at the very least acknowledge their crimes as such.
I'm happy to agree that the native Americans land being taken from them was messed up as long as we can also agree that the way the Romans treated Western Europe was messed up and the way the North African Muslims treated Europe was messed up. Can we just agree that when people are treated in a messed up manner that it's messed up no matter?
Yes.
Compared the good things of Román Empíre ( art; laws;monuments etc) or good of Muslims in Europe ( principally in Spain)!with the all barbaric acts agaisnt indigenous population in U.S ; LATAM is another think more good than the U.S case
After watching his recent video about WW2 it made me think. What if the Europeans hadn''t taken over all this land. And it was still just the Native Americans here when Hitler was taking over countries in Europe etc.? They sure wouldn't be able to stand against Hitler. I'm not saying that the whites didn't do horrible things to the Native Americans. But if whites hadn't taken it over and it was just the Native Americans fighting against Hitler, there most likely would be no more Native Americans. I think he would have killed them all.
#9 - Dude we are always watching the entire videos! 👍
Awesome! Thank you!

💯
They over simply history. Some Indians didn't believe I land ownership, some sold their land.
I live in Massachusetts. Northern and Central Massachusetts had many French Canadian residents. Southeastern Massachusetts has a number of Portuguese speaking communities from Azores, Brazil, and Cape Verdi for example.
If you're coming to the US, you might want to see those communities first.
We are talking about a 300 year long period involving hundreds of different nations on two continents. It's every bit as complex of a clusterfuck as one might imagine. Of course people oversimplify it. We talk a little about the beginnings and a lot about the endings but little in between.
I just found your channel recently and I love how appreciative and interested you are in history. Definitely refreshing to see someone actually engage with the content they're reacting to. Also, as a Canadian, you know I've got to recommend watching anything Canada related... we tend to get overshadowed by the USA a lot, lol. Great stuff!
Spanish is everywhere. Chicago has one of the largest Mexican American communities in the country. They also have a large Puerto Rican population. New York City has lots of Caribbean Spanish speaking immigrants and Miami is literally the capital of Latin America.
There are some places in Texas and Florida where you can't get a job unless you speak Spanish.
Aren't there Mexican Americans in every state by now? In Oregon in the 70s we didn't have that many. Now they are part of all the communities in our state.
1. Slavery goes back thousands of years, long before Portugal existed.
2. The Spanish enslaved the natives in the Caribbean islands and forced them to mine for gold but quickly discovered that the natives weren't sufficiently robust to handle that kind of work - they died from exhaustion and/or disease. Some Caribbean islands ended up being almost completely depopulated only a few years after Columbus arrived. At that point, the Spanish started importing slaves from Africa who were larger, stronger, and had exposure to old world diseases.
Since civilization existed at least.
The Egyptians had slaves 12000 years ago. There has always been slavery. Until the Americans and English abolished it. Actually there is still slavery in southern Lybia.
The slavery from thousands of years ago and indentured servitude are not the same as chattle slavery. There was a giant difference in that kind of commodification of people. Usually slavery in the past was spoils of war. You took over land and the people ad made those people your slaves. Sometimes there were right-of-way slave unlike in chattle slavery that was in the U.S. may countries participated in chattle slavery but we were the last 1st world country to make it illegal. Also the effects of U.S. slavery color way much more of our history than just that period. Think about how long it was before black women were allowed to vote. They didn't gain that right when white women did, it was after. We have a lot to fix still because of it. Think of Europe and look at the difference in how people are treated. It's super different.
@@garycamara9955 And other countries I'm sure.
Conventional theories stated that natives didn’t inhabit America until around 12000 years ago. But archeologists have found evidence of natives dating back 30+ thousand years which is throwing a major wrench in the academics original theory. I’m glad this guy stated 30k but we really don’t know how long humans have inhabited the Americas.
In fact some natives in South America had DNA tests done and certain tribes currently have closer dna to present day Oceania people than natives/spanish/portuguese. It’s an insane finding.
Rapa nui is not that far from chile.
Many Americans speak French in Louisiana and up in the very northeastern parts of Vermont and Maine.
Number 9. If I watch something you put out, I watch every second of it. You take the time to put out good content, so I am going to take the time to watch it all.
Not watching til the end?! That is just kooky! Of course we are watching til the end 😀 So happy to have found you and enjoy all your content!
French is still spoken amongst some families who have been in Louisiana since it was settled by the French, but it's generally only used within the family. English is the main language.
We have our own dialect called Cajun French, not mainstream French
Hi Andre I really been enjoying your videos so far. I'm from the Lakota and as Native American or if you want an Indian (we don't mind being called Indian).
The scientists that talked about us immigrating from Asia or Europe through an ice bridge is true, but another theory is that we immigrated by sailing to the Americas. However, another theory by another group of scientists have shown that there is Native Americans have already live here long before those though naturally.
If you're looking for videos about Native Americans to react to then I recommend "Guerilla Warriors: The Military Tactics Of Native American Tribes" by Weird History. But if you're looking for a channel for Native American history then I recommend a channel called Native American History, but learning our history is one part of our cultures and I recommend looking up the tribes spiritual beliefs as well because it explains some of our actions too.

Tell me what you think about this.
The first to discover North America were the Vikings. In 1000AD the Viking explorer Leif Ericsson, son of Eric the red landed in North America in a place he called “ Vinland “ which is today known as Newfoundland. There have been many Viking relics and villages that have been unearthed. This was hundreds of years before Columbus.
@newrimhoops387 Our history does not relate that……officially it is understood that the Vikings were the first settlers in Canada
In Canada Native Americans are called First Nations.
Hello, 9 I enjoy your videos because a lot of them refresh my knowledge and watching you learn is pretty cool. Keep learning my friend, there is a big world out there.
There are different French influences in several parts of the US.
New Orleans, Louisiana, of course, but also north along the Mississippi River Valley all the way to Canada. Think of the names of the cities throughout the region. Many of them were founded by French Jesuit missionaries and explorers.
Another concentration of French in the US is in New England. Because the French-speaking Canadian Province of Quebec is located next to the New England States, many French speaking Canadians migrated south to work in the textile mills. At one time, French was the second most commonly heard language in the six states.
Love that you’ve done this video!! Please do continue to do more about Native Americans. The stories of the people who resided in America before 1600’s, the NA tribes, is sad and fascinating. It may take a little shine off America in your eyes, but, it needs to be known what happened here.

#9. I love these reactions, and as long as you do as well, please keep them coming! 🇺🇸💙🇵🇹🇪🇺
I recommend a reaction to "10 Cool Facts About The Lewis & Clark Expedition" by Weird History. A very amazing story about American expansion into the West.
#9. I enjoy history videos and your reactions to them. If you like Abraham Lincoln, I would suggest reacting to his Gettysburg Address, it's only about two and a half minutes long and it is considered one of the greatest speeches in American history.
9. I enjoy your reactions. It's rewarding to see your curiosity and respect for foreign places and ideas. I think more people than you realize are watching your videos all the way to the end!
9 and yes french was a a language used back in the day, the french also influenced Mexico ,when they invaded mexico just before the american mexican war. So yea french influence is all around the south of the USA and some parts of Mexico. But also German is part of the USA in some places . Spanish is more of a southwest thing not souteast other than florida
There is also a large Spanish influence in Florida which was claimed by Juan Ponce de Leon in 1513 for Spain. St Augustine FL was founded on September 8, 1565, by Spanish admiral Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, Florida's first governor. It is the oldest continuously inhabited European-established settlement in what is now the contiguous United States.
Andre, I enjoy so much your insight into your subject content.
I definitely enjoy your reactions. I live in Arizona and there is a lot of history in this state. Hope you get a chance to visit someday. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for this. I watched it all and would enjoy more.
Yes. You are correct. There are indigenous people from Russia across the water from Alaska, through out Canada and all the way down through Mexico and South America. With the Aztec, Maya and Inca as the most well known South American People's.
9 ..... I always watch your whole videos. You are one of the most likeable and entertaining people on RUclips. Keep up the great work my friend! 😃
Yes, still watching. This was a great video.
Wow. You’re Portuguese?! I had your accent pinned as Eastern European. Anyway, love your channel, just subscribed.
Great video. It's always a delight to watch and hear your reactions and thoughts 9 😊
I lived in New Orleans for almost 16 years. My friends grandmother grew up in Louisiana and spoke mostly Cajun french. she hardly ever spoke English. Fascinating! in the middle of America!
9 Great channel! And yes native American history would be fun
Always watch to the end. Spanish is spoken everywhere with every dialect.
Love to see your reaction towards the history of the USA Star Spangle Banner. It is our national anthem and has a beautiful origin story.
It's a great video
I appreciate your interest in learning, and your impressions about our country are fascinating.
Keep up the good work!
Coming in late but watching it all. Love these!
3:11 Polynesians were the second people to inhabit Hawaii, the first were from the Marshal Islands.
The part of Minnesota where I grew up was part of British Canada until 1818, and some French Canadians were there before that time. Historically, some small towns in the area were almost entirely French, in contrast to my mother's hometown, which was almost entirely Norwegian. There's also a strong French presence in northern New York State, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, close to Quebec, although few of these people speak French as a first language now. When my mom was growing up in the 1940s, many of her contemporaries spoke Norwegian as their first language, despite being third-generation Americans.
The Boston Tea Party wasn't actually directly a protest against increased taxes. It was triggered because the British government completely exempted the British East India Company from the tea tax but the local colonists who were importing tea from the Dutch, completely killing their businesses because they couldn't compete. So it was actually a protest against a targeted tax cut.
9 - Love your reactions here in Texas, keep them coming!
Video about the Iriquios tribe by "Historia Civilis" is a greak breakdown of the tribal confederation, and native american political structures more generally. highly reccomend.
I watched to the end! 😊
I watch til the end. Thanks for doing this. Peace
9, most French speaking folks are north boarding our Canadian neighbors. Lots of Canadians still speak French.
I could be wrong but aren’t there also a lot in Louisiana
Learning about the Spanish War would be nice, it’s one of the wars I myself am not familiar with. I mainly know that before becoming president Theodore Roosevelt fought in battle of the war, and we obtained the Philippines and Cuba. Don’t know a good video to recommend though, it’s one of those topics people rarely discuss. Have a good feeling most Americans didn’t know we went to war with Spain at the beginning of the 20th century.
If you do want to see great content about the Revolutionary War that’s more films, I’d recommend the musical 1776, The Crossing (this is on RUclips and the channel says it’s up for education purposes, so see if you can get permission to record your reaction to the film), George Washington Miniseries 1984 (I saw this from RUclips too so it could be a similar situation to need to ask permission to film your reaction) and HBO’s John Adam series. Probably best to start with the John Adams series, it’s based of the book written by David McCullough that gives lengthy details of John Adams life starting the beginning of riots that lead to the Revolution War, and it gives a good foundation of understanding the political and principle side to what it took to creating and establishing the United States. You might have to break down your videos to ~30 minutes, most of this content is lengthy, but they capture what was at stake. Not sure what the chances they are available to see, some might need to be bought or you might need to confirm you’re able to film reacting, but this is a list that I can think of that has films, not documentaries, that really help explain the American Revolutionary War and the foundations of our country. Btw, I do love the Patriot, but it’s not really based on real people plus one scene is based off of what happened to one France village under Nazi occupation, so it more for entertainment than grasping real history.
I learned all this stuff in school, or would have if I'd been paying attention. Watching you learn it is relearning it for myself.
Not only Louisiana but Iowa and Wisconsin have French named cities for the influence that was there.
Taxation without representation is still an issue today. Americans pay Social Security tax while our elected officials do not. They decide how and what social security funds are used on, while it has no effect on their own lives.
9. Here to the end. I wish our teachers would teach about our history this well, and that our kids would pay attention as well as you.
Spanish in Fl (Cuba), Tx, NM, Cali. and Az (borders Mexico)…
French here in La
During the Revolutionary War, Benedict Arnold was instrumental in stopping the advance of the British at the Battle of Saratoga. When he turned traitor, it shocked the colonists who had grown weary of the war and renewed their interest in winning the United States' fight for independence.
History has always been my favorite subject.
9; As a Puerto Rican, the Spanish American War is of MASSIVE importance to me historically. I have 50% Spanish DNA and 40% British DNA. It was the first time the US fought a former global power showcasing our new and impressive navy. We had Theodore Roosevelt to lead us to victory and the Rough Riders secured victory in the Caribbean. It was an exciting time for the US and put us on the national stage leading up to WWI.
Andre, have you seen the movie 1776? It is old but gives a decent and entertaining view of the development of the Declaration of Independance. You meet all the prime movers of the formation of the US. The first Presidents were great leaders who did not want to rule like Kings or dictators. We were so lucky!
Im glad theres finally a video that talks about the American Revolution which doesn't give all the credit to France, they helped but 90% of the work was done by Americans like my ancestors. George Washington was a great man, you should get the audiobook Washington which details his life.
You'll find lot of French names of cities and people along the Mississippi River into the Great Lakes area.
You can see the French influence in the names of places up and down the Mississippi River Basin, including States as far north as Missouri, Iowa, or Indiana.
9- love your videos 😊
Ty 🙏
Portugal and Spain they start the discoveries in America
As someone attempting to become bilingual, sir, you are far better at this task than I’ll probably ever be. 9.
Check out Ben Franklin, amazing man !!
9 -- 😊I watch until the end
There are quite a few similarities in prehistoric pottery between South America and Africa. There is as yet no known direct connection between these first peoples, but it is taken by many as a sign of trade and cultural exchange.
French in Missouri was big to. It was called paw paw French. Mix of Indian and French
All the former French territory has a lot of French Place names, the same way the southwest has a lot of Spanish place names. Even places like Wisconsin and Minnesota are full of them. Wisconsin has cities like Eau Claire, Waterloo, La Crosse, and Prairie du Chien. One of the largest universities in the state is Marquette University, and there are local Native American Tribes with French names, like the Lac Courte Oreilles Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. Which, incidentally, Lake Superior was also named by the French.
I think you are correct, though I never considered it before, but the revolution was our most significant and difficult war.
Your channel is great! Keep it up
Just found you today and I find you quite likeable. Best of luck with the channel. 9.
If you learn more about the Spanish-American War, you'll also learn a little more about Teddy Roosevelt and his famous Rough Riders when they fought in Cuba.
If you look at place names or read history of the north central states, like Wisconsin or Michigan, a lot of French influence can be seen.
Where i live in florida (southwest coastal) you can hear many different variations of spanish from puerto rican to panamanian to mexican and so on. There also is polish, ukrainian, russian, and english. During tourist season we hear every language from around the globe. We even hear portuguese due to it being a language spoken in some south american countries and caribbean islands. Where i grew up in western Pennsylvania you still hear almost all the european and asian languages, as well as many middle eastern and african. German and italian as well as polish, hungarian, and true spanish are fom the settlers who come there back in the late 1800s and early1900s, the rest are slightly more recent due to a large number of universities and research institutions. Its an extemely diverse area with Pittsburgh being the hub city. The available native foods is remarkable, any type you want you can find. Google The Cathedral of Learning in pittsburgh, it has 31 nationality rooms in that are so spectaular to see. Its a 42 story gothic sky scapper on the campus of the University of Piittsburgh. I think you would enjoy its story.
I would like to see you teach us about your country. A lot of us are Americans and we don't know enough about your country!
Not only did Columbus seek funding from Portugal for his voyage before turning to Castile and Aragon, but he sent his brother, Bartholomew, to ask Henry VII of England to fund his expedition before seeking funding from Isabella and Ferdinand. But on his way to England Bartholomew was captured and robbed by pirates. He showed up at Henry's court looking quite the worse for wear and Henry basically ignored him because he didn't seem like someone worth paying attention to. Who knows what might have happened had Bartholomew made it to England without going through that whole piracy/robbery ordeal. Maybe Henry would have taken him much more seriously.
The southernmost LSU Campus Mound is now considered the oldest known man-made structure in North America, research conducted by LSU geologist Brooks Ellwood suggests. Ellwood determined that the mounds were 11,300 and 8,200 years old, respectively, using radiocarbon dating. Our other mound Poverty mound is 7000 years old and is related to the Incas in Mexico and it’s located all the way in NW Louisiana … all the mound native Americas either drowned when the Mississippi overflowed its banks, or they committed mass suicide or were became other tribes abandoning the mounds..
The term Native American applies to all the indigenous inhabitants of the Americas except for those in the Inuit/Eskimo continuum, who had continued contact with Old World Yupiks. This group still stretches from Greenland to Russia today.
Also, Portugal was a contributor in creating chattel slavery as a system, but it was far from the first enslaving state. Look no further than the Cordobans and the Almoravids for proof that it is far from a European phenomenon either
a third note: there are very few french speakers in louisiana, with most relegated to acadiana which has a lot of poor "cajun" villages. these people are mostly the descendents of the acadians who were expelled from canada by the british for not pledging loyalty to the crown
9 my friend! Always watch till the end
I've seen recently that Americans tend to be more interested in their genealogical history than Europeans. Would you think that is true? My family is big on who our ancestors were, where they are buried, etc. And concerning this video, my DNA is split. I have an ancestor that came over very early (pre-1775), so American for generations. But I also have a relative who participated in the Trail of Tears until we lost track of her. Between diseases natives weren't used to and firepower, the natives didn't have much chance. I have always wondered why, with the sheer number of natives to Europeans, it was the natives that got bad diseases. Weren't there lots of diseases the Europeans had never had contact with? Why didn't they die off like natives did?
You ask a very fascinating question regarding disease. There are several important factors that play into it, but one is simply a matter of numbers: at the start, there were a relatively small number of Europeans coming into contact with a large number of natives. This meant that overall more natives were exposed to European diseases than the other way around. Basically, Europeans _were_ dying to American diseases, but there weren't as many Europeans in the Americas, and those who died were constantly being replaced by new ones as the European powers expanded into the New World. And the great distance between the Americas and Europe meant there was a lot less potential exposure to American diseases in Europe.
Also, it's worth noting that Europe had a comparatively immense amount of travel, both internal and to Asia and Africa, which meant a lot of exposure to diseases from every corner of the known world at the time (the Black Plague, for example). The Americas, for various reasons, didn't have anywhere near the level of travel between regions prior to the arrival of the Europeans, so their immediate germ pools were more limited.
The reason why is the types of diseases each side had.
Diseases don't want to kill their hosts. That's actually bad for them because then they can't spread themselves. Mostly only badly adapted diseases, diseases not originally meant for humans, seriously harm their hosts.
Where do diseases not meant for humans come from? Animals. The closer people are to animals more often, the astronomically more likely they are to catch mutated diseases from animals that aren't properly adapted to humans. Its where most of the worst diseases come from. Smallpox, Black Plague, Covid, etc.
Native americans had few if any domesticated animals besides dogs and some small populations of llamas in South America. Meanwhile, most of Asia, Europe, and parts of Africa had practiced extensive animal husbandry for a long list of different animals for thousands or tens of thoudands of years. Because of this, the Europeans just had a lot more 'animal diseases' to pass to the Natives than vice versa, and those disease were also much more deadly.
If you look at Europeans trying to take over a lot of parts of Africa in the past, you see the reverse happen. Eurpeans drop like flies while Africans don't have nearly as bad as a time. This more to due with the fact that the factors that spread the bad African diseases (i.e. misquitoes, etc.) to people only work in the hot humid jungle, so Europeans in the much cooler north never had a chance to catch them because they couldn't spread there due to the climate.
#9 it is. It's nice to see someone learn and understand why we're the way we are. We want to help and protect everyone who just wants a decent life and happiness. Partly why we have the second amendment, to protect our families too.
Don't change a thing. I like you the way you are Brother. South Carolina Love.
Yes that's true: the indigenous peoples of both North America down to South America came from Asia (and some from other Pacific Islands). BTW, in Canada the indigenous tribes are called "first nations" instead of "native Americans".
9 - I love your videos!
10:03 The British Empire could not focus everything on the colonies because they were also dealing with wars on the European continent at the same time.
The war would have not happened if the British would have let representatives from the colonies into the vote on the taxes. “No tax without representation” was the major complaint we had at the time.
9 Always watch to the end. Love the videos and the reactions to them.
Andre, also look up Indian code talkers. They couldn't figure out the Indian language. Some explorers back then had slave guides that spoke with the Native Indian's.
George Washington and Abraham Lincoln are our two greatest presidents. I like to think of them this way - through George Washington’s leadership the United States was created. Through Abraham Lincoln’s leadership the United States was saved. Love your channel.
You're right, when talking about native americans, that includes Canada (600+ different groups), USA (several groups also, but I don't know how many), Mexico, Almost all south America (Mayas, Incas & others), and it's logical that they come from Asia, when looking at them from close, they have similar eyes shapes as asian people. In modern days, several natives from the younger generations have their own you-tube channels (I don't have any to recommend), but if you're interested, you can surely find if you search. Have a nice day.
11:09 Lincoln is regarded as number 1 President because of his actions during his Presidency, while Washington is more important overall (winning the Revolution, handing back power twice and thus avoiding a dictatorship twice). Washington was the only man who could have ever been King of the United States and it is a testament to his character that we did not go down that path. So Washington doesn't score Presidentially because so much of his important actions were in his pre-presidency. Still, he is number one among the founding generation, is featured most prominently on Mount Rushmore of the four Presidents there and gave his name to the capital city of the country.
Lincoln is often regarded as number 1 President because he pulled together rival factions within his own party, guided the Union through a bloody Civil War, was able to win that Civil War, and navigated the complex political landscape to get the United States to outlaw slavery via a constitutional amendment, something that would have been unthinkable four years earlier. Lincoln was probably the greatest politician in American history because of his ability to manage all of that and achieve various political objectives that massively impacted the future of the American history. Alongside of all of this, his Presidency saw the passage of the Morrill Land Grant act, which created a number of colleges and universities. The passage of the homestead act, which gave away farmland to encourage settlement of the Western states. They reorganized the financial system through a banking reform and passed the laws subsidizing the transcontinental railroad. So not only did Lincoln preserve the union and push the country towards abolition of slavery, he also set America on the path to becoming the largest economy in the world, just twenty-five years after his death, and he did all of that in four years time.
Prefer it when creators ask for likes up front (can always be undone if they aren't liked) 9.
In the Louisiana area yes French, Also, in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Texas (likely a few other states too) German is surprisingly prominent. Then also in Ohio Japanese is fairly common, especially near the Honda plant here (Central Ohio - west) I know areas of New York City are very easily gone to and you can converse in a multitude of languages if you have the knowledge to do so. there is no 'designated' language, tho most of us do know at least some English. Chinese, Vietnamese, Tagalog, Arabic and Spanish are all very much 'spoken' languages in The USA... but these are just the more quantity of Americans who also/exclusively speak these, there are over 800 languages spoken in the USA. Just not by everyone ;) I speak English (and am in the 98%ile and there is no 100%ile), a fair bit of ASL, German, Japanese as well as enough to 'be polite' (and get by) Korean, French and Gaelic both the Scottish & the Irish versions... but just a smattering. I can converse in (English - obviously) ASL ((American Sign Language), German, Japanese in a few areas of conversation, and 'get by' with the rest at least if they can kinda 'get by' w/ their English). I can understand them more than I can speak to them in the alternate language.
But definitely w/ the 9.
