Just like "dope", "cool", and "exquisite" are separate words for a reason, you can't translate one word into another that has a totally different tone and formality. (I should also mention that the Japanese spoken in this video was made to be difficult to pick up on purpose, and the voice is of someone who is almost definitely not a Japanese person, or if she is, has been heavily "foreign-ized", i.e. grew up in another country and does not have Japanese speech patterns or mannerisms.)

Honestly surprised he didn't guess hebrew correctly. The woman spoke very clearly, with a strong israeli accent and used words made up of familiar roots which are common throughout the old tastement(א-ה-ב, ש-פ-ט, מ,ו,ת). I'd imagine it's hard distinguishing it from arabic sometimes, them being sister languages, but they diverged quite drastically over the centuries due to modern hebrew being a thing - like what you brought up at 4:55 - hebrew originally has these syllables just like in arabic, yet native israeli hebrew speakers won't pronounce them correctly(which is pretty funny if you think about it) unless actively trying to( or in cases where they have moroccan, iraqi or yemeni decent) - this makes for a pretty easy distinction if you're ever struggling to decide.

Now if he pulls a collab with Luca or Richard, the world will be an even better place

Richard would be better I think Luca is very talented and his Spanish sounds native like but I feel like he doesn't teach anything of value

Steve is such a good sport! Makes me feel better about not being fluent in my one and only 2nd language, Spanish.

6:16 First thought - definitely Swedish. Then halfway through I go - wait an effing minute, I don't know Swedish and I'm kinda understanding what he's saying. I go back and I'm listening closely and then it hits me - no way that's Polish in disguise 😂 Well played, well played Transcript: Hi i siema, LingoSteve. Słyszałem, że interesujesz się skandynawską historią. To prawda? Świat Wikingów jest ciekawy i pełen różnych tajemnic.
