  • I wish I could look upon my failure to grasp the lyrical syntax and mellifluous tones of my mother tongue with philosophical stoicism, but I fear it will always haunt me; it is ever the inclination of the spectre of half-grasped chances to haunt those who have passed the event horizon of linguistic success.

    fnar

  • Du bist so eng. Jetzt komm ich. That's the only german I know but I don't know what it means and I can't remember where I heard it.

  • @MrRazorblade999

    "You're so tight. I come now." ^^ I think I don't want to know where you heard it ;D

  • @daisysonnenblume Ooops! :-)

  • Great video Do You Speak English? - Big Train - BBC comedy - YouTube. I saw a video like this on gigstarz.com. Was that you?

  • @tigesarepeopletoo looooooool!!!

  • Excellent!

  • lol Sie haben recht :-).

  • H€ll, I'm an American living in Paris for over 23 years and sometimes I get so titred of giving out free directions I just send people the wrong way....I am not Julie McCoy Cruise Director on the Love Boat with a Hollywood salary, you don't pay you get that kind of service.

  • @MANMARTRE Dude, relax! It's only directions!!

    Why send them the wrong way? Seems to me like the 23 years have turned you into an ass-hole Parisian!

  • @mikey1011mikey No, a true capitalist.

  • hihi i will help you to feel like you are in heaven

  • When I've met foreigners in my country, they ask me the same question "Do you speak english?"..And if I dont want to speak, I just shook my head pretending as I can't speak english.And they said "let find other people who can speak english"...Hahaha...

  • Hahahahh :D

  • Simon Pegg

  • But their speaking the language like No I don't speak English or in Dutch they say no I don't speak dutch LOL

  • @webkinzloversbff It isn't dutch. It's german.;-)

  • @fahrzeit1

    Then how come they say doutch

  • @webkinzloversbff Because that's german in german

  • @webkinzloversbff it's not dutch, it's german. :) I have heard that dutch and german sound the same to people from england, america and so on but truth be told: if you have never learned any dutch as a german you can hardly understand the dutch people... some phraises are the same or very similiar, but I'm from Germany and I personally would never ever understand what a dutchman says.... they speak like they have something stuck inside of their throat or anything (that's not an insult!)

  • @JasminTheDreamer The written language is presumably far more similar than the spoken, due to accents and such.

  • @V2Blast which language do you mean? the written dutch and the written german? :)

  • @JasminTheDreamer Aber natürlich. :)

  • @V2Blast ha, wie cool:) kommst du auch aus Deutschland?

  • @JasminTheDreamer Nope, I just took it all through middle and high school :P

  • @V2Blast ah okay! How was it? I can imagine it has to be very complicated... german grammar isn't always logical^^ and we have three words for 'the' depending which 'gender' the noun has... ^^ e.g. I have no idea why the sun is female for us^^

  • @JasminTheDreamer Eh. It's pretty close to English (after all, English is a Germanic language... mostly). I just didn't learn enough vocabulary...

  • @V2Blast yes, there are many similiar words in both languages which mean the same thing... e.g. house and Haus, mouse and Maus, man and Mann... I just heard that people say the grammar and the rules are complicated. I can't tell, it's my native tounge :)

  • @JasminTheDreamer I feel like German and other languages at least are mostly consistent about following the grammar rules... English borrows from every other language, so only a third of the language follows any particular rule :P

  • @V2Blast ah yeah, I see :) english is a very easy language (in my opinion) german is one of the most difficult languages, at least that's what I heard^^ I think languages like japanese are more diffiicult...

  • That's hilarious. But,at the end, why did they say they can speak English? That was obvious from the start. I'm Canadian so perhaps I'm missing something.

  • CONVERTIBLE

  • they certiantly do speak a forgien language in liverpool

  • What I find either amusing or just plain embarrassingly annoyed about is when I hear some of my fellow Britons raise their voices as they attempt to communicate with local people in any Contintenal country, let alone in France - IN ENGLISH - as if the raised voices will have some effect in making themselves understood! However, we Britons shoulld feel ashamed either way as more & more Continentals now speak better, a more correct, English than we do! And this includes younger French people.

  • @Verderer You're right. We English probably speak the most incorrect version of the language out there [I'm looking at you Essex XD]. Even the Americans have a better grasp of it than we do these days

  • @aspiringdrummer17 I suppose? all depends one where you come from.. i actually don't think essex accents and dialect or w/e is that bad. if i can understand it, i don't think it matters if it's not perfect

  • @aspiringdrummer17 and i don't think it's something to be ashamed of. it's not anything 'new'

  • @Verderer You got that from 'Sofunny'.

  • 아뇨. 한국어 할 줄 몰라요. 죄송.

  • No me canso de ver este video jajajjaja es buenisimo

  • спасибо, посмеялся.... 1:17 - капитан очевидность XD

  • Ich bin nicht fließend!!! xDDDD ich hau mich weg!

  • The german from the two men is better than that from the woman. They don't pronounce the "ch" so hard. O.O

    (As a german I can tell.)

  • The guy on the right speaks austrian german, you can hear it at 1:11 ;)

  • Can anyone speak english here?I can't,please teach me

  • lol this is basically how I feel trying to communicate with french people in France:

    Me: Uhm.Bonjour.Parles-vous anglais?

    French person: O.O non!

    Me; Oh...damn I just need to find where this street is

    French person: Go left..down there. and then right again, 300 metres.

    Me: o.O thanks!!

    French: Quoi?! Je nes parles pas anglais..les rosbifs...tch! *stalks off*

  • @Halldisa You're not even English mate Halid Isa? sounds like some Middle Eastern Christian to me.

  • @Halldisa Most of us can read, write and speak (with a terrible accent) English, but English people are so hard to understand ... you speak too fast. When Frenchment say "Je ne parle pas anglais", they mean "je ne comprends pas ce que vous dites".

  • lol

  • Is this sketch funny? I can hear some laughs, but I can't understand what their saying
