Languages I will learn in the futur (maybe during all my life ^_^)

[whatzcrackinlike]

what about afican language like swahili? big language. many people from around the world speak it! :D also somali is a beautifull language

[loki2504]

@whatzcrackinlike well lack of resources is the biggest issue I didn't find more than 2 or 3 books for Swahili...

[whatzcrackinlike]

@loki2504are you sure? have you tried searching for it? have you tried and google it. I do not think you know anything about Swahili.

Swahili is a major language spoken by millions of people around africa. Swahili is spoken in over 12 countries in africa.

you see Europeans and even Americans be spoken Swahili

[loki2504]

@whatzcrackinlike We will see, maybe in the future =)

[whatzcrackinlike]

@loki2504 Well You dont have to learn it at all if you dont want to, You know ,its up to you. But Iàm just telling you that you can find many swahilli learning books if you search for it. thats all :) peace and love

benim için türkçe en güzel dilllerden biri .... (for me turkish is the one of the most beautiful languages )

Sen de yabanci dil ögrenmek istiyor musun? Hangi dili seviyorsun? ( dili : accusative )

[loki2504]

@istanbulyeditepe Bazın dilbilgisi zor geliyor ama genelde türkçe dilbilgisiyin ve japonca dilbilgisiyi birbirlere çok yakın onun için benim için daha kolay geliyor

[istanbulyeditepe]

@loki2504

japonca ve türkce dilbilgisinin yakin oldugunu duymustum ama ben japonca ögrenmek istemiyorum. cünkü japonca yazmak ve okumak zor , alfabe baska. bu arada almancani ilerletebildin mi? bu kadar kisa zamanda nasil bu kadar güzel konusabiliyorsun inanilmaz dogrusu. bravo sana :))

[istanbulyeditepe]

@loki2504

And bye the way I´m a 30 year-old female :)) i´m turkish live in Austria and study Spanish. I also speak German and want to learn Arabic.

[loki2504]

@istanbulyeditepe çok sağolun !!! Türk kültürü benim için çok ilginç o zaman bu dil ve Türk insanlar çok seviyorum

[loki2504]

@istanbulyeditepe çok memnum oldum ! Ben belgikada oturuyorum ve babam Taiwanya'dan geliyor. Ispanolca konuşuyorum ! Kolombya arkadaşım varda onlarla hep İspanyolca konuşuyoruz

şimdi okulda arapça okumak çok ellince !!! arapça biraz zor ama çok ilginç çünkü bazın arap kelimelerı ve türk kelimelere çok yakın !!! mesela: müdür= mudir

[istanbulyeditepe]

@loki2504

Ispanyolca hakkinda tavsiylerin var mi benim icin? Hast du irgendwelche Ratschläge darüber , wie ich mein Spanisch verbessern kann ? Ve en cok merak ettigim anadilin ne ? ( your mother language? ) seninle sohbet etmek cok zevkli , danke für die unterhaltung :))

[Meezletoe]

*out

I'm not amharic we just share the alphabet XD That language is connected to an ancient alphabet Geez and similar to how Latin created French Spanish and Italian, Geez created Amharic Tigre and Tigrinya and they are backwards in order of how close they are to the original language [Like Italian-Latin, Tigrinya-Geez].

But I think you should also learn Swahili if you can, you'll be more cultured and also it'll make me happy and a LOT of ppl speak it. I will too someday!

[Meezletoe]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH YOU SKIPPED MY ENTIRE CONTINENT *faints of of grief* At least South America there is spanish in a couple countries T__T I guess arabic is in Africa too. You don't want to learn even Swahili or any bantu language? The motherland of all languages ;D;;; ?! Or an african-semetic language or Amharic?? Amharic is definitely easy and the alphabet you can learn so quickly [learned for me in 2 months for my language!] Swahili and Amharic are very friendly. Swahili has 80 million ppl!♥

[arivas713]

man thats one long list. heres mine in descending order: nihon-go, ivrit, guanhua, russkiy yazyk, and parsi

[pesahson]

I'm glad to hear that you want to learn Polish! It's not very popular so good luck with that! Powodzenia :)

[tomlie91]

Respect for you that you want to learn my mother language (Polish) xD

[loki2504]

@tomlie91 Of course, polish is one of the most interesting language in Europe to me ! I love the chchch sound it sounds awesome !!!

[tomlie91]

@loki2504 so good luck during learning Polish because Polish is one of the most difficult languages in the World

[loki2504]

@tomlie91 I think the grammar is difficult but the written will be ok ! not as crazy as japanese ^_^

[loki2504]

@tomlie91 Tak !!! Ucze sie polski !!! To jest bardzo ciekawe !!!!

[istase2000]

LOL "I don't want to learn too many languages." 已經算很多了啦! 好期待你成功的學完的一天!

[loki2504]

@istase2000 Well as I said before, I wanted to say: "I don't want to learn too many languages at the same time". I always learn one by one.

[istase2000]

@loki2504 are you focusing on Japanese now? I was wondering if it's a good idea to learn more than one at a time? I can't figure it out. But I remember some study saying learning one language stimulates progress in another =) Oh, and how long does it take you to be able to reach conversational language in a new language? thanks ^^

[loki2504]

@istase2000 Yes I'm focusing on japanese and just that. I think learn one by one is the best way to obtain an intermediate level ! How long? it depends on the language: italian 4 month, japanese 3 years xD

[Eddeux994]

What about French? Are you fluent in it or have some knowledge of the language? J'apprends le français pour deux ans en l'école..but of course it's slow learning there so I've been studying it on my own for a while now. I want to learn Korean as well, and actually I'm studying it alongside French right now. Nice list though! I just ran across laoshu's & your vids and I have to say you guys inspire me to keep studying..and actually learning the other 7 or so languages I'm curious of ^_^.

[loki2504]

@Eddeux994 Salut ! En faite vu que je vis dans un pays francophone je ne dois pas apprendre le français (et j'en suis vraiment heureux car cette langue possède pas mal de piège au niveau de l'écriture et de la grammaire).

Petite correction, on dit: "J'ai appris le français pendant deux ans à l'école". Je te félicite pour avoir appris ma langue et te conseille de continuer à apprendre. Je te souhaite une excellente continuation ! bonne chance pour tout !

[loki2504]

@eduarazo of course I know about Catalan it quite similar with spanish, I can understand a little bit.

[loki2504]

@Gellenduoz Well swedish is a beautiful language so if one day I decide to learn scandinavian languages I'll certainly learn swedish and danish !

[eduarazo]

Seeing you have a wide knowing of languages, I'd like to ask you, out of curiosity, if you know something about my second native language, Catalan. Most foreigners who I ask don't even know it exists hehe

[eduarazo]

[Gellenduoz]

Aw no Swedish? ;)

Good luck with your practice, I'm rooting for you!

[juliazabka]

wow you going to learn Polish! I'm from Poland, and i think this language is very difficult. good luck!

(sorry for my bad english)

[loki2504]

Although it will be difficult I'll really enjoy polish because it's a very nice language ! I LOVE it !

[qzchris]

That's an awesome list of languages there. Good luck with them all! :D Do you think you'll learn Polish first or Russian?

I actually tried to make a video response to this yesterday with my webcam, but the quality was too terrible. :(

[loki2504]

@qzchris

Very interesting question !

Well I think I'll learn russian first and then switch to polish because I have more russian speaking friends around me but yeah my city if full of polish native speakers so it shouldn't be a problem to pratice !

[loki2504]

@heroedelahistoria that's true but I don't like to be limted to assimil... For example, to study japanese I use more than 10 different books.

[loki2504]

@bebedagely Well I meant I won't study too many languages at the same time, I like to focus on one language and move to the next one when I feel confident in this language

[Jonnemanne]

hey felix ! thanks again for a great video!

now, i'm probably going to do an interrail in the future and visiting brussels would be a must. would be great to meet up for say, a café normale (just like you taught in your video xD) or something ! i really need to get better at french.

i wish you all the best !

Jonne

ps. what are you majoring in the university, if i may ask?

[mattattack007]

You know what, I found that out after watching a few more videos but forgot to delete the question. My mistake!

[mattattack007]

Fist off I just want to say that's a great list! Second, I'm just wondering why you would learn Cantonese and not Mandarin? Any particular reason?

[qzchris]

Cause he already knows Mandarin!

[nephrenmalinari]

Scripts aside, I think Polish and Russian are more difficult than Japanese or Chinese, grammatically at least. Slavic languages have very complex inflection systems, especially compared to Romance and Germanic families, but I think that makes them both intimidating and alluring.. I might take Russian in college.

[laoshu505000]

@nephrenmalinari Yea, I agree about Polish and Russian. Arabic, Russian and Georgian's grammar is ridiculous.

[TheCrazyStudent]

Lol. In the end: "I don't want to learn too many because I don't have the time to do it." Umm, "too many"? Do you know how many languages you pointed out in this video? I lost count around the time you mentioned Polish and Russian so I don't know myself. But dude, that's what I would like to call a LOT of languages. ;)

Anyway, hope you manage to learn them all really well. It's not an easy task, since they are so many.

[darkhorse1723]

i think the hardest you've picked was arabic and punjabi.....there letters are freakin hard....

[loki2504]

@darkhorse1723

Well thai is also challenging ^_^, but the most difficult scripts remain traditional chinese and japanese

[chris3443]

What is your mother tongue?

[loki2504]

@chris3443

my mother tongue is teochew

[chris3443]

@loki2504 That is VERY cool. 你们语言用的是汉字还是朝鲜语的文字，还是另一种文字呢？

[loki2504]

@chris3443

我不要亂講我不太知道。。。

我沒寫過潮州話所以不知道，不好意思

[tamertarek]

Wat dacht je van Egyptisch? Ruim 80% procent van alle Arabische liederen wordt in deze taal gezongen. Egypte is het centrum van Arab-Pop.

[loki2504]

@tamertarek

Wel ik heb al naar egyptische liedjes geluisterd maar ik luister liever naar libanees liedjes ^_^

[LostJoker13]

This is too much i think. Try to learn estonian :D

[loki2504]

@LostJoker13

Well, you're right ! I'm going to learn one by one and I will invest at least 2 years in each language ^_^,

I don't have enough resources for estonian so if I learn it I'll stay on a pretty limited level. Do you know any good resource for it??? I mean books for each level?

[MEeERNAAA]

wish u d best of luck ^_^

[loki2504]

@MEeERNAAA

Thanks !!!

[Jakub1POLSKAnew]

WOW, you're going to be a multilingualist, I have never seen a person who'd like to learn so many languages :) Did you know Pope John Paul II knew 10 languages and Uku Masing (Estonian philosopher) knew 65 languages?

[saiyouken]

Its motivating to hear about your language ambitions.

[loki2504]

@crazynaaa Grazie ! spero che anche te impararai molte lingue !!!

[loki2504]

@bebedagely ^_^

[loki2504]

@BelligerentPacifist: Well I decided to avoid learning african languages for one unique reason: a lack of resources... They almost don't publish books for foreigners who are interested in their language... But with arabic or japanese (or russian) you'll find so many resources !

[BelligerentPacifist]

Nothing from Africa?

[heroedelahistoria]

Assimil has a quite good method for Swahili; it's an example of Niger-Congo\Bantu language and a good choice I think.

[bebedagely]

I laughed when you said you didn't want to learn too many languages hahaha

[zocurtis]

Yeah, because for us normal people he's already learnt too many languages as it is.
