  • This is one of your best videos. I would like to mirror it on my channel, and publish a link so that my subscribers can find you. I will only make some small edits for time, but other than that, you did very well.

  • @NaomiChambers That would be pretty awesome! ;)

  • that statistic about 10% is pretty embarrassing, and I bet you it's less than 10% and of those 10% I bet most of them lose their abilities in that language and won't learn any other languages in life.

    about saying that it helps with your own language, YES..when one stumbles across a word in a foreign language, one can also figure out how to say something in his or her own language to be able to speak more polished

    dont you like speaking to someone in a different language, who cant speak yours?

  • @SchwarzerMannn Oh Yes! I love it. :)

  • Great speech. I found this video because of a Facebook post. I have always loved learning languages and in college learning languages has been a lot of fun. We get to practice a lot in the language we're learning. I'm learning Japanese and I can already read all the characters created by the Japanese. I think it's very beneficial to learn another language and wish more people were motivated to do so.

  • @RationalCreationist I wish more people were also just as motivated to learn languages.

  • great video. i totally agree.

  • I like your attitude

    most americans are like

    fuck you you all have to learn english and if you have a acsent just go back home

    here in germany I am in 10th class and I started english in 5th latin in 6th and italian in 8th class

    also in 10th I could have chosen spanish

    and in 11th I can choose chinese

    but I get your point I am not good in latin or italian but my english is good I guess ;D

  • It also impresses the ladies.

  • Great vid indeed. And I want to add one more thing. If you succeed in learning a language. It is very likely you have a greater chance in succeeding in other field. You probably have already know how to learn a thing. no matter what it is. Because learning itself is very alike, no matter what the subject is.

  • Indeed, great speech. Keep on spreading the word!
