I wish to believe a lot of young koreans learn foreign languages and really use them to communicate with people around the world.

[@anwa6169]

It looks like a cool tool, however, I dislike computer-voices so much. Why not just record human voices? It is so much better. Thank you for introducing it anyways, maybe one day it is useful for me, since I traveled a lot and enjoy learning languages, too. Now I only speak 2 languages to fluency, however 2 more are okay. Maybe beginners-level but I understand more? I would like to learn korean, some day, if there is a chance, maybe in the holidays.

Thought the guy speaking in portuguese was korean, I mean, grew up in korea, was shoked by such good portuguese. The guys speaking in spanish also speaks very nicely. PS: brazilian here that also speaks spanish and english.😊

I’m just like you, Sofia. I can defend myself in spanish but english is the one I feel more confident about. I’m trying to teach myself some korean and trying to find a good place for LIBRAS lessons.

SOV (Subject-object-verb) Languages : Korean, Japanese, Turkish, Hindi, Nepali. SVO (Subject-verb-object) Languages : English, Spanish, French, Chinese, German, Italian, Portuguese, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Malay. SOV speakers are somewhat at a disadvantage in terms of foreign language learning. It feels like my brain is spinning counterclockwise.

[@tobiasbiller]

German isn't SVO it's a V2-language with underlying SOV actually. But yeah, it definitvely makes a language harder to learn, when the word order is quite unfamiliar.

[@hayabusa1329]

SOV is more common than SVO

[@klemenkovacic9109]

it's like learning a tonal language like mandarin where before you havent been exposed to any of it.

I don’t know if this video has a skewed sample. But it definitely reflects my personal experience living in korea. For some reason I see a lot Koreans interested in learning Spanish these days. Specially in generation Z. Which is quite surprising, knowing how much people in korea love the typical blond type DiCaprio style white person. 😂 But as a Latin, it does feels nice.🫶😎

[@markqalvarez]

I am surprised of how many koreans appeared speaking some Spanish. I love languages and my goal is to speak at least 10 languages in my life. Now I speak Spanish, English, French, (Brazilian) Portuguese; and I am learning Italian.

[@HyunkiKim-bg3hd]

South Korean here. I speak Korean which is my first language, and proficient in English, JLPT N2 skilled Japanese, and is Welsh a language from my maternal grandfather's hometown. I only have lived and raised here in S. Korea so I don't think there are any other languages that I feel comfortable with xD

[@sakurachristineito6428]

OMG amazing that you're JPLT N2!!!

[@TakahashiTakami]

@@sakurachristineito6428Japanese and Korean share many similarities from similar sounding words to same sentence structure, so it isn’t that difficult for Korean speakers to learn Japanese, aside from probably kanji, but even Koreans learn some hanja too.

[@gabriellep9866]

[@JazzBerryLily]

I'm American with a Hispanic background, specifically Puerto Rican. The young man who said, "when you develop an interest in movies or dramas, you tend to feel a strong desire to learn more about them," was exactly my reason to dive into Korean culture 4 years. Even though, I didn't understand a word of it, it sounded so beautiful and refined (even when they cursed🤭), and the storyline and cinematography got me hooked. I haven't looked back ever since and now am appreciative of other East Asian cultures as well. My Netflix recommendations are now all Korean, Japanese, Thai, Chinese, etc. and I prefer watching them in their native tongue with English subtitles😊. I don't watch or listen to anything Westernized anymore. Even though I won't have the luxury to travel to any of these places, I'm learning some of these languages for the love of it and wish I would have done so 20+ years ago if the technology today existed then. Take full advantage of all the resources we have!👍

Hey, K Explorer! It's fascinating to see so many Koreans speak different languages. This got me interested in finding out about their thoughts about Working Holiday and if that's a preferred way for them to pick up or polish their English or other languages. I'd love to find out which cities are popular destinations for Working Holiday too! Would love to see such content. :) thank you.

when you live in a country that has everything you will ever need, there's little to no need to learn anything else at all. e.g. americans, spanish. In spain, they will even go so far as to dub every foreign movie even english so spanish people can listen instead of read.

[@ゆこ_1]

I can speak English And I'm learning Japanese, Chinese and thai I think, Japanese sentence order SOV is more complicated than SVO in English and Chinese. It's so simple for SVO for example "I love u" in Chinese is 我爱你 it's pretty easy and other hand in Japanese 愛している that much complex for me 😢
