  • Well, all I can say is that his English has definitely improved :)

  • Who cares Hes HOT!!!

  • hahah i remember seeing this live. i was like 'poor guy, he should just speak spanish to piss the guy off who pronounced his name wrong"

    nadal's english is awesome now, though.

  • Who cares if he can't speak English, i bet whoever loaded this video to Youtube can't speak Spanish fluently so shut up, stop being jealous of how good of a player he is!!!!

  • Who is 'Rafer'?

  • Well, I think of somebody of his statue he could at least learn to speak a little English...This way he only looks dumb....

  • He can hold a proper conversation in english now.

  • I speak three languages. you people who speak one language, try and attempt to go somewhere else and speak another one if you dont know it. He is doing damned well.

  • me gusta cuando habla en catalán , es un idioma muy bonito

  • EMINEM¡

  • English is the most disgusting and stupidest language that ever existed on Earth!!!! Even listening to such awful language as English is makes everybody puke.

  • No one has to speak English. You might speak English if you want but you don`t have to. There are 6 languages recognized as official languages of the United Nations: English, Arabic, Spanish, Russian, French, and Chinese. Legaly all of them are equal and there is no such thing as only English being the international language.

    Americans are too stupid to realize that, they can barely imagine there are other languages and other cultures in the world, so their reaction is normal for them.

  • @zhod110484

    You pretty much have to speak English. The whole world is forced to learn it. Its the language of the future UNITED NATIONS republic.

  • he can speaks germany very good haha

  • Spanglish?

  • Why do Americans always think they are the center of the universe ? No, sorry, everybody don't speak English -.-' So it's normal that he speaks this way !

  • @DeonRai1

    Because we are...where have you been the past 50 years?

  • He speaks German very good

  • @Zefius14

    Proof?

  • @Mehlwurm16 hahaha Hällo Ich bin Rafa Nadal hahaha

  • so basically hes gonna try and slap him silly with the back hand and forehand? cuz thats what i heard :3

  • thats not spanglish!!??..... if he knows no english, then he can speak spanish and use a translator...??? srsly, y sould he make ppl be sircastic abt himm???

  • that pretty much sums up the Rafa strategy. albeit 99% aimed at Federer's backhand

  • I khave to hit my forekhand

  • Comment removed

  • wow its ridiculous how much better he got

  • 317 people feels that he talks like a mexican immigrate

  • @llYannouWll1010 learn english hillbilly it is "immigrant" not immigrate. you whitetrash.

  • @Blackdog747 Waka Waka Niuuuuuut

  • @Blackdog747 haha hey KEYBOARD-WARRIOR why don't you just shut your smoothie CANDY-ASS mouth and go hate somewhere else , I'm not even white faggot and if you haters ROODY POO don't agree with what I said -----> just cut your own throat whith a butter knife

    Friendly

  • English was still pretty foreign to Rafa in his early 20s, as shown here. Now in his mid-20s, his English is quite excellent for a non-native speaker. The English immersion from all the traveling in his career has surely helped him.

  • Répondre à cette vidéo...

  • fuckin racists! keep it up and rafa will let karma fuck your life up dumbass!

  • english it's not even his second language,laughing at this shows less of culture

  • SEXY SEXY SEXY SEXY SEXY

  • Some sexy accent right there.

  • yeh .. thanks .. no ! :D

  • You people who make fun of Rafa, ur all a bunch of Nazi anglo-saxon racists!

  • i am mexican and i talk both spanish and english perfectly

    soy mexicano y no hablo tan de la verga ingles!

    jajajajaj

  • rafa's accent today is awesome

  • No-one is laughing at Rafa speaking English now..............

  • Really? Have you seen yanks speaking English? It's even more awkward for me listening to them. You yanks have a very ugly language. Very monosyllabic.

  • I'm amazed at how some people can easily scrutinize how someone speaks a foreign language. I'd think that anyone that's actually tried to learn another language would have some kind of sympathy.

    If I see someone that obviously doesn't understand English well I'll try to cooperate with them and use simpler words to make sure the point gets across. Some people apparently carry on a conversation like they would with a native speaker. Stupid.

  • lool comentator said good to talk to you and i am cracking up hehehehe

  • search in youtube joel santana falando ingles

  • While the English isn't perfect people have to realize this was his first Wimbledon final and he probably was extremely nervous. He did lose the first set at love.

  • awesome insight in tactics pre-match LOL

  • Hahahaha!!!! Not knowing English now days is as if being illiterate. On the other hand since he doesn't speak English very well, he sounded like an idiot with those ''backhand and forehand'' commentary.

  • en españa no se necesita el ingles para nada... excepto para esto, asi que no se estudia en serio ;(

  • @TNQTV u sir , dont know what are u talking about , slavic languages have more to do with latin then any germanic language ..lmgtfy.com/?q=slavic+languag­es+

  • everytime i ask someone to speak spanish... i get the usual SI, NO, HOLA....

  • Rafas English has improved BIG!

  • @TheRafaelBond I know, it's unreal how much better his English has come.

  • I saw a lot of English people in Spain. The loud and patronizing way they speak English to the locals is very annoying indeed. Not to mention embarrassing. Americans aren't much better I admit but at least I made an effort to learn and speak Spanish.

  • Leave him alone... he has license to kill any language! :-)))

  • had a good laugh at the vid :) unfortunately when I scrolled down all I saw was complaints and opinions of who speaks the best english on tour... some people.... nadal is a lovely character + he did not grow up in tennis schools as did djoko and federer and most other non english players, thus nadal was never in contact with english as much as most.... + spanish are known for terrible english but I must say nadal has done a lot to improve his english and speaks waaay better these days

  • y q si no habla??? si juega re bien... a ver si un gringo (norteamericano) habla el español bien... yo caminar en calle, ser mucho bonito tu pais, el gente es bonito, LOL

  • Some sounds don't exist !!

  • Roddick speaks better English

  • Djokovic or Federer speak the best English

  • Well, you have to understand that he's not American or English, he's Spanishh! So what did you expect??

  • @tablazo15 Well I am a Serbian and I don't travel around the world every week like Nadal does, but I can speak English very good, and I think he needs to speak better, as the one of the best players in the World.

  • @Ntennis95 So you think, you can speak very well.

  • @tablazo15 Quite well .

  • @tablazo15 Well, Djokovic is Serbian, but speaks Serbian, Italian (excellent ), English and French. Federer speaks French, Germany and English... Nadal mumbles spenglish

  • @PetarPN He speaks German aswell...

  • @PetarPN 500 million people in 30 countries speaks spanish,what about serbian or swiss?

  • how come everyone else on the tour doesn't have this problem?

  • c'mon guys!

    is that jidish? with my bakchhand and forchand?

    great joke

    got a great laugh as it really almost sounded like Rafa

    thanx!

  • Horrible english. Djokovic speaks the best english on the tour, he is even better than Murray hahah.

  • Well monkeys rarely speak fluent English.

  • @choyothe what you mean with "monkeys", spanish, latins.--? fkng racist 

  • @emiblindside It has nothing to do with country or culture but all about Nadal.

  • @choyothe ok so

  • @emiblindside so it's not about racism.

  • @choyothe ok so means "that's all dude..excused"

  • wow, his spanish accent is so heavy

  • Let me see you speaking spanish... that would be more "funny" than Rafas english..

  • @kumovi321 lol , u should see Djokovic speaking english , and english is more difficult for slavic speakers

  • @kumovi321 it's not only that... i'd be funny to see these guys playing "tennis" too

  • @kumovi321 the funny thing is I always find it funny when Spanish speaking guys speak Spanish. They talk so fast, especially when commenting football game, FUCKING EPIC.

    PRATATATA PRATATATA, GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLL!!!!!

  • @kumovi321 True but not knowing English today is like being illiterate, and learning Spanish is optional so...

  • @kumovi321 at that level you have to excuse! it doesn't matter if we can speak spanish or not, we don't play GS finals or being interviewed.

  • "Good to talk to You" :D

  • Wit my forchand my backchand to :D

  • @DaG3rM0 sucks arrogant nadal. " to watch a Pete Sampras versus Goran Ivanisevic match, or one between those kind of players, is not enjoyable. it is not really tennis. "

    always exaggerated appeal. always overaction to mad. always shouted . always fake of time-out. always fake take time. always cheaters in the game. Illegal coaching. exceding time limit between serves. always ugly gamesmanship. etc. Annoying. overrated. arrogant. arrogant fan. sucks Nadal. arrogant unsportsmanlike

  • @overratednadal so which player do u like?

  • the interviewer is a jackass.

  • his lack of english has certainly cost him millions in possible endorsements, at least in the US...

  • onces the reporter says roger federer will come now , nadal fkn gtfo lol

  • "the champion R.F. would join us...." the reporter rubbed it in his face! owned!

  • @nabase lol!!!

  • spanglish xD

  • I gonna try play best tennis de mi....LOL LOL LOL LOL

    English- spanish

  • xD bachand fochand 

  • All you idiots are fucking lucky Rafa even chooses to speak English in interviews. He's not obligated to do it, so shut up about it

  • I understood him well enough. Forehand. Backhand. There wasn't much more to say really, because I don't think he'd give away his strategy. Besides, just because his English isn't that great doesn't mean he's not intelligent. He's just as smart as anyone, only in Spanish.

  • Federer OWNS Nadal at speaking English.

  • @AmorphicS only at that at this moment

  • @zabrePFC Federer has by far the best English. How is that not obvious?

  • @AmorphicS

    And Nadal OWNS Federer in nearly every Final

  • @kaka22pato7 it was a joke and you turned it into fanboy rage?

  • I... play I play play

  • Worst. English. Ever.

  • @N0vakDj I'd love to see how you speak a foreign language.

  • He is the best player of his time and all you can think about is how he --at least-- tries to communicate in a language different than his native tongue? To paraphrase a great American hero: "Obviously you're not a bowler..."

  • forkhand....backhandd..xDD, bless is all i can say!

  • Arnold still has an accent after 50 years in America lol

    Everyone has an accent when they speak different language

  • ... He knows to speak perfectly serbian, italian, english, german and little French and spanish! I'm surprise !

    Rafa & Djoko, I love you both

  • I know to speak french, serbian, english, spanish and I'm learning russian, chinese and italian. Nowadays I think it is really important to know the principal languages, but I back Rafa, he is right! After all, he is a Champion! In such a big tournament nobody is able to interview him in his owm language! Love Rafa!

    P.s : of course my favorite player is Novak Djokovic, and I love him not only for his tennis, but for the human he is and all he is abilities, for instance, speaking perfectly ser

  • LOL SO CUTE

  • so he's basically saying that he's gonna try his best...

  • you Americans SUCK at spanish as well

  • no, he tries to speak german.

  • THATS SPANGLISH !!!!

  • @saadkhangul

    hahhah...yes :D

    I am from Serbia, but my favourite tennis player is Rafael <3

  • @Anja971 no doubt rafa is the best now and may succeed federer in winning grand slams!!!

  • @saadkhangul

    I agree :)

  • I once heard that Spain has the least amount of ESL speakers in western europe.

  • english isnt his 1st language and he was concentrating on the match ahead rather then giving a good interview

  • Admittedly first time round I did not understand a thing, but when you listen to it another time you can actually make out what he's saying... good old Rafa :)

  • why is he speaking parseltongue?

  • lmao the only thing i got from this was my forehand and my backhand too

  • That's right before the final, his mind is elsewhere. Incidentally even there he speaks better English than most English people can speak Spanish.

  • WOW, he's gona play with his forehand and his backhand

    he should not reveal his impressive complex strategy, now his opponents know it all!!

    hehe

  • @they0utubedude he said he'll play aggressive with his forehand and backhand in case u didn't hear

  • @they0utubedude all americans butcher EVERY language. how ignorant can you be to make a comment like that? he's from SPAIN so shut the fuck up.

  • @LIF3OFTH3PARTY oh really? I think Rafa is from Mars, or Pluto ¿have you seen his top-spin hits?

    dude, I am joking, love rafa and I am not english speaker too

    but it's funny how basic a interview can be, like "well, I will hit the ball, and run, and hit the ball another time" hehe

  • @they0utubedude LMAO!!!!! i love the "hehe" at the end, too.

  • he is so cute when he speaks english.. really cute! love him! <3

  • LMAOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

  • I dont mean to laugh at him...but I cant help it haha..."I'am gonna play...with foreckhand and my backhand, too"

    his english skills, and tennis skills, have definately improved alot since then...

  • can somebody tell me what is he saying actually??

  • hahaha this is funny... he's so much better now.. but man this is funny hahaha

  • bachhhhh hand

  • The accent's cute. American accents are so boring albeit I am an American so it would be. DmitryDavidoff is right and I think we all knew that in the back of our minds so it is funny but not insulting.

  • Lol, unfair to Nadal, since he was visibly nervous as this was his first Wimbledon final, but still is pretty funny nonetheless. Not everyone has the linguistic skills of Federer, so unfair either way :p

  • leave him the hell alone! he needs to concentrate on the match, not some dumbass asking stupid questions.

  • he can speak english fluently now..

  • OMG this is funnier than apu english!!!

  • y los gringos creen que hablan muy bien el español si pareciera que hablaran con una papa en la boca

  • Well .... he speaks tennis fluently ... actually he speaks tennis better than anybody else on this planet !

  • @MichaelinDenmark haha nice joke

  • @Fernandohayabusa

    Thank you very much.

    I am glad someone got it.

  • Something about a foreschand and a baschand. Thank you Captain Obvious!

  • misbehavior of medical time out. annoying player. sucks nadal

  • interviewer : "Rafa, i wish you well today. A final thought, how would you play him, what are your tactics, how might you beat him?"

    nadal : "yeah.. adhsjdgshadvgyuvsygvasydbghdfk­faaywduaibfgyusf i try my best"

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • Quizá tu español suene igual que su inglés...

  • I understood what he said lol

  • Who f**king cares, how he speaks English??? I'm Russian (from Moscow) and if you, Americans, English etc. will try to speak Russian, it will be very funny for us to hear your speech too) Rafael doesn't have to speak English perfect)) He is Spanish. But he has to play perfect game!) Aggressive game!)

  • @DmitryDavidoff im totally agree im peruvian and we never make fun of people who cannot speak spanish very well, we help them!!!!!

  • @DmitryDavidoff Well said.

  • @DmitryDavidoff Oh my god EVERYONE in ALL of the spanish speaking countries thinks ther same exact thing, it is so funny when americans try to speak spanish... at least Nadal is trying not like most of the americans that just say "me no entender" "no hablar español" haha damn fuking americans burst the effing bubble youu live in and stop thinking the world has to learn english, it is you who have to learn more languages...

  • @DmitryDavidoff totaly agree with you man!

  • @DmitryDavidoff I know, I love Rafa but I think it's hilarious to hear him try to speak English sometimes, I love it!

  • @ChicagoFan32

    Agree with you) He's funny)

  • @DmitryDavidoff who the hell wants to speak russian? :p

  • @SuperBulletAnt

    where are you from?

  • @DmitryDavidoff just saying the facts. russian isn't important so who gives a shit about it? english is the only language worth learning nowadays

  • @SuperBulletAnt

    The only thing why i learn English - it is international language. But Russian is beautiful language. And much more difficult. And if you don't want speak russian - it doesn't mean nobody wants. I learn french now. And want to learn spanish in the future. Pleasant to hear spanish speach. And you? Do you know only 1 language ???

  • @DmitryDavidoff Well, try, but relax, I mean this is in the best way, like u see A FUNNY way, soooo... Nobody cares in the way "What a idiot", just "Hahah, how sweet". Listen, I speak prefect English, Spanish, Italien, Serbian and Hebrew, but If u could see how damn I speak like French or Portugal language... I belive I would never speak perfect Russian, at least never as u speak, sooo... U know... There is always a mistake or bad accent or something.Relax, this is just fanny side. WE LIKE RAFA!

  • @DmitryDavidoff I care how he speaks English because he sounds sexy :D

  • @DmitryDavidoff DUDE English is the International language ..... everyone should know it but no one should know russian ??? learn to speak russian and then use it in like france ??? LOL

  • @SuperPersianKiller youre really ignorant. obviously english is the official international language but its never bad to speak more than just one language. for example: you could learn spanish its really important either but every native spanish speaker would laugh at you hearing you spealing spanish

  • @DmitryDavidoff I love how you immediately rip America, note that this is at WIMBLEDON which happens in ENGLAND, about 3,000 miles away from America.

  • @DmitryDavidoff

    Just because we wouldn't speak your language well doesn't mean it's not funny when people speak ours poorly. Heh, if I try to speak Russian, it probably would sound hilarious, and I'd have no problem with you laughing at me.

  • @DmitryDavidoff

    ALL I READ FROM YOU WAS BLAH BLAH BLAH I'M AN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT BLAH

  • @DmitryDavidoff ........yea....you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT....AND your annoying.

  • all i heard was 'hrrrrrrr' hrrrrrr' tooo 'hrrrrrrrrrr'

  • hahahaha, that ending was so harsh 'the champion roger federer will join us now' aka get your 2nd place ass out of our camera, we're interviewing the winner now.

  • "I'm gonna play with my forehand...and my backhand too" ....HAHAHA.........luv you so muuuch Rafa !!!
