[@JASFMXL]

As a spanish speaker, it's true with Coco. And probably Encanto, since there is no video here.

[@excentriqueesque]

The "native" language of all of these songs is English. The music was written primarily with the original English lyrics in mind. That's why some of these don't really flow naturally at all (like the Arabic and Chinese examples in this vid) 🤷‍♀️

[@Kaedya.-]

Don't get me wrong, I would kill to see Collodi's masterpiece and Pinocchio's actual personality being finally brought on the big screen properly (I enjoyed Garrone's interpretation but it still didn't give me the right vibes), but it's also great to have a cute and funny musical version of it that everyone can enjoy without having nightmares afterwards

[@Nutzername92a]

@@billieashley7146 Lmao, this has nothing to do with French being "romantic" or anything. Look up the Grimm Brothers. They published widely successful books that had a huge influence all over Europe. Some of the stories in their books were their own creations, some of the stories were age-old Germanic tales, and some of the stories were adaptations of other author's tales like the ones from Charles Perrault. The Grimm Brothers helped popularize those stories all over Europe and ultimately all over the world. Almost all of the early Disney movies were taken from the Grimm Brothers' books, which resulted in lots of German & French songs for this video.

@@Rain-ie3xmOmg same I’m scrolling through the comments just to hear my language is special😭😭

[@Kalaydascope]

From a singer’s perspective, the vowels are actually easier than the consonants because of all the dip-thongs and blending involved. I love singing in Latin based languages because their vowel sounds are so similar to English. There’s a song I know in Czech that is gorgeous but soooo hard because of the consonants involved in getting the pronunciation correctly. I imagine singing in Norwegian would be very similar. Such beautiful languages.

[@trulybtd5396]

I am curious if other languages also feel forced. "Disney-norwdgian" is a weird-ish form of norwegian often translated to make sense in the animation. As a pet peeve example, "let it go" is translated "la det gå", which technically is correc (word for word), but not really an expression any native speaker would use.

[@Airin258]

​@@trulybtd5396I won't speak for others, but for russian, translation quality jumps a lot even within one film. Easiest example would be TS movie, Annestesia, with Anna herself being acted by amazing singer, and text translated not perfecly correct, but very nice from literature perspective. At same time, we have Rasputin, with silly voice, severe mistakes in voice with image synchronisation, and even more silly translation, which is kinda correct, but a lot of text part feel very artificial and off A bit of a curious insight: for "Let it go" they exploited the fact she always sings this prahse twice in a row and ended up with "Let it go, let it go" translated to "Otpusti - i zabud" (sort of "Let it go and forget" in translation"), which then flows into sentence continuation. Really smart, if you ask me, tho original voice is just too impressive to listen to any other variation

[@janAlekantuwa]

@@jordanburkert6208 The Kingdom of Arendelle is inspired by Norway and Norwegian culture (and Hans being "of the southern isles" implies that his kingdom is akin to Denmark). In Frozen II, it is revealed that there is a nation of people called the Northuldra who live far to the north of Arendelle and were in conflict with Arendelle in the recent past. The Northuldra are very intentionally based on the Sámi. During the second act of Frozen II, it is revealed that Iduna was Northuldra, and that she met Agnar during the most recent battle between Arendelle and the Northuldra. Iduna saved Agnar's life during that battle and moved to Arendelle with him, where the two ultimately fell in love. The movie as a whole is about how Elsa and Anna, being both Arendellian and Northuldra, are meant to strive for peace between the two nations and correct the mistakes made by their grandfather (King Ruenard of Arendelle)

I think that’s be pretty interesting as well. He probably wouldn’t speak with much of a notable accent though. If you want a “Danish Sebastian speaking in a different accent that came from a far, disconnected land that Danes have ties to” kind of vibe, maybe they could’ve chosen something like a Greenlandic or Faroese accent.

I just realized something. So in that Coco song, the stage he's singing on looks like a step pyramid and a church. The church part looks like the Mexico City Metropolitan Cathedral. This cathedral was built not long after the conquest of the Aztec city Tenochtitlan (which is where Mexico City is now). The largest step pyramid in the city was destroyed, and many of the bricks were used to build the cathedral. The stage in the movie looks like it's meant to represent the cathedral and destruction of the step pyramid.

But the same can be said for most of these films, is they are all based on stories who are places 100s of years back. Of course, mythologies and fairy tales are difficult to date, but it seems obvious they are certainly not ment to take place in the future. So all the all the langugages you are hearing here are too temporary for the stories they are based on.

Except for Tui's singing voice. Chris Jackson was the singing voice for Tui in the original.

My guess is the regular VA sounded too different from himself when he sang, or he was untrained and couldn't keep up.
