It is nothing new to Japanese that one word can mean 10 different things and I’m not even talking about the homophones

[@Rationalific]

@@RadenWA But "hontou ni" means "really" or "truly". "No cap" is something that I don't even know in English, but even if it means that, it's wrong as a translation (except for just entertainment value) due to its very different formality. 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.
