100% agreed. Luckily I happened to pay no attention to the thumbnail until finishing the video - but if I had, I doubt I would've watched it in full. Maybe it's some kind of an analytics thing that spoiling the nationalities brings more views, but for me it would ruin the whole point.

[@asgo7320]

As a swede I could tell who was swedish from the way she talks, and the danish girl because of her accent. It sounds almost german I think. The rest of them I had no clue lol!

Yeah same, the Danish girl had a pretty strong accent compared to the rest

[@FrozenMermaid666]

I clicked so fast when I saw the Icelandic flag 🇮🇸 and I immediately thought about Iceland when the Santa Claus thing came up because I also knew that Iceland has 13 extra names for Santa Claus (Iceland also has a name for the wind, which is Kári, like in Old Norse) as I am learning Icelandic / Norse and also the other Norse / Germanic / Nordic languages, and I also knew that Sweden has the most islands as I recently learned about that - by the way, there’s also The Faroe Islands 🇫🇴 and, Estonia 🇪🇪 which is also in the Nordic region, and Latvia 🇱🇻 too, and I remember I’ve seen Latvia in a video before, but hopefully it will be included again, as I am also learning Latvian and the other languages like Finnish / Estonian 2gether with the Germanic languages and the six modern Celtic languages, and it would be nice to learn more about those countries as well, and comparing words in all these languages, and it would also be very interesting to see them all 2gether in one video, with word comparisons / tongue twister comparisons / longest word comparisons etc and more guess the language / guess the nationality videos, as these videos are real fun and educational, and I’m learning lots of new things and words that I didn’t know before from them!

The Finnish girl was probably the hardest to guess, thought Norway until the other woman said about dark bread. The Danish one I thought was Danish too.

Only two Icelanders have gotten a Grammy. Björk has been nominated so many times but never gone home with a Grammy. The winners are Hildur Guðnadóttir for the soundtrack of Chernobyl (TV) and Joker (Movie) - both EXCELLENT soundtracks and Hildur also got an Oscar for Joker.
