Thank you, Nora! My mother tongues are Belarusian and Russian, but they are quite similar so I would consider them as a one language, I'm also quite proficient in English thanks to the school and my Internet passion. I have started studying German because the language is interesting in terms of being logical, and I want to read Goethe's, Einstein's, Nietzsche's, Freud's works in original. Right now level ~A1.1 is achieved! Recently I started watching 'Extr@ auf Deutsch' series, and then I have found that besides German it is also available in Spanish and French! Previously I have met two people in my home city Minsk that studied French! And now I'm considering studying it! French is incredibly beautiful and smooth! I'm just afraid that my brain will explode or all of my free time will be consumed by trying not to forget the languages I know. But the idea of being a polyglot is very tempting, even if I will not be able to find right words quickly in a particular language occasionally :) And that is considering the fact that I studied heavily at the school math and physics, not languages. xD Anyway, thank you for reading that long comment! May you find a success on the favoured deeds! ;)
@@tafaiokahikimaikalani8312 German and Dutch are two distinct languages. Swiss German is an umbrella term for the German dialects spoken in Switzerland. German is one of the official languages of Switzerland, not "Swiss German", which wouldn't make sense as it's a collective of dialects as I said.
@@flrn84791 In the end, it's a dialect continuum. The farther you move away from a certain point the more difficult it gets to understand the local variety. I speak a form of Plattdeutsch and can easily understand Dutch people, but I can barely understand Swiss Germans or Bavarians. Never forget: "A language is a dialect with an army and a navy!" ;)

Thank you for sharing this useful video. You are a fantastic person. ❤️🥰❤️🥰
How is Swiss German considered a separate language?..
Because it is. Just like Dutch is separate from Deutsch

And putting the Swiss flag for "Swiss German" has to be a joke.
Because it is as different from Standard German as Spanish is to Portuguese.
