For people who want to learn languages, my best advice (although I'm not a polyglot myself, so take this with a grain of salt), is input. I am also from Montreal, native French speaker, and my mom couldn't speak a word of English. My dad had an okay English. Learning a language from scratch is overwhelming. What made me learn English is through music first. I had some tapes and CD which had the lyrics in the little booklet. This was before we had internet at home XD. I would ask my dad to translate the lyrics of my favourite songs. From there I started playing video games, most of which were only in English back then, so that was my "level 2" input, where I would read the text on screen, and try not to bother my dad too often to ask what they meant. By the time I started saying a single word out loud, I would already understand a LOT of English. From there, it was just a matter of putting it together to form my own sentences. By that time we had internet hahah so I started chatting in chatrooms with people from everywhere in the world in English. By the time I got to the last year of high school, I was better at English than my French-native English teacher. With technology today we have things like duolingo and all the other apps. but as good as they are, I find them a bit dauting because they kinda force-feed you stuff, because you are being tested on your learning as they give you input, which is all well and good, but I feel like it is missing some types of mode where you can just get input after input, without being tested, where you learn semi-passively, just by receiving more and more input. I wonder if that types of apps exist...To be honest, writing this message, I have just realised what is missing in these apps...

@@joaodiniz7207 I would say that applies more to Lisboetas, even though it has been open to Asia, Africa and South America for centuries the world seems to overwhelm them and they are usually ignorant of the rest of the country . Beautiful city though...

[@joaodiniz7207]

​@@consuetabrevis most people in lisbon or around lisbon are not from lisbon, they have family someplace else. so, no i would say people in lisbon are the ones who do this the least because they have connection with people from different areas, with different food etc. if you live in a smaller town you will have less access to different things, sou you are more likely to say that your food is the best for example. yes some people in lisbon still have a problem grasping the whole country. they are not that many now. the issue is that they still hold a lot of power and have a lot of influence. but most people in lisbon is not that.

Impressionante! Em Portugal, mantiveram o arco do triunfo, agora na 4ª maior cidade do mundo, tiraram-na. Eu curto muito linguas estrangeiras, graças ao ensino, também a um cantor poliglota, posso dizer hoje que falo 7 idiomas com diferentes níveis de fluência: Português, Espanhol, Inglês, Italiano, Alemão, Francês, Coreano, Japonês e atualmente estou aprendendo Polonês que é muito interessante e mais fácil de aprender que o Russo. Agora mandarim é muito difícil kkkk Valeu pelo vídeo!

Amazing channel! Loved it.

[@Diogo-vt7zl]

I really valued Bruno's input, but his bit about sarcasm didn't really make sense to me. We actually use sarcasm quite often, as you can tell by the way the video ended. Regarding football and politics, I suppose that can be true on a surface level, they're the easy topics - before actually getting to know Portuguese people. I'm sure other nations have their own 'safe' themes of conversation. As any other person, once you properly learn about them, other topics unfold, it's not as strict as Bruno seemed to make it out to be. About the people you interviewed, it's true I'd have liked to see some more Portuguese takes, but this video is still representative, since Lisbon is actually full of internationals nowadays. Hope you had a great time here in Portugal!

[@duartearaujo4656]

Great video!! knowing Portuguese Italian and Spanish at the same time is realy hard because they are very similar and you can mixe when you are speaking

Dear Dan, great and super interesting video nicely produced as always!!!!

[@NydiaLC]

🐢ok these videos are great and I think this one was the most interesting for me, watching this guy Bruno talking about the people and the other guys saying that there are not many flats available, I mean these are the kind of things that really demonstrate the actual situation. And watching people from all over the world, the culture and the city right now, it's all so interesting. Other than that, the more weal your mother tongue is, the more languages you speak. So come to Athens, we seak many languages here and you are most welcomed to visit!

[@juliocesartsuarez7658]

I enjoyed this video, I speak 4 Languages some of them I do have more confidence in speaking, but here are my languages I do speak. Spanish, English, Portuguese, French and now I'm learning Italian. I need to practice more so I don't forget the vocabulary.

[@sarahsoares599]

Looks like the conversation topics in Portugal are similar to the ones in Brazil. haha

[@ABO-Destiny]

Portugal is very nice and portuguese people are warm, smiling people who transfers lot of positivity. French people appeared very eager to help, courteous, some people are very classy, but I felt they themselves are not very happy and therefore do not transfer much positivity. P.S: I am Bengali from India Ohh , there are many common words shared between Portuguese and Bengali - that was a surprise for me

Most Nepalese are capable of speaking more than 5 languages.The languages i know fluently. 1) ENGLISH: Coz it is taught in School 2) NEPALI:Coz it is our national language 3) URDU:coz it is the language we learn everyday by watching TV. 4) TIBETAN :Coz it is our neighbouring country's language and it is taught in most schools 5) SHERPA:Coz it is my local language Languages i am learning 6) Korean: to watch Kdrama 7) Japanese:To get a job in Japan

[@auana3]

I speak 5 languages: Portuguese, English, French, Italian and Spanish. And I also understand Galician and Catalan dialects. I’m a Portuguese native from Lisbon. Most Portuguese people speak 3 languages at least: Portuguese, English and French. Some 4 or 5 like me, with Spanish, Italian or German. In Portugal we learn two languages at school, one starts at 5th grade, the other at 7th grade, and you learn them at least till 11th grade. In Portugal foreigner movies/series on tv are not dubbed. This makes Portuguese people speak better English as most shows are in English. I enjoyed your video but I wished you had asked your language question to more Portuguese people. Hard to believe you could just find foreigners. Although it was very nice to hear that all those foreigners have a good impression of Lisbon/Portugal and find Portuguese people nice and kind.

[@joellopes3934]

Galician and catalan are not dialects! They're languages.

[@gatesofdawn]

I grew up between England and Portugal and lived in Lisbon so both English and Portuguese are my mother tongues but I learnt Spanish to a good level solely from watching cartoons in Spanish when I was little (all portuguese kids from the 90s remember the phenomenon that was Doraemon, el gato mágico). I can hold complete conversations with people thanks to it (obviously it helps that Spanish and Portuguese are similar). I also learnt french in school but never put it into practice so nowadays I can only really read it and understand it (when listening) but struggle to string a coherent sentence. I can also understand and read Italian as it is very similar to Portuguese. And lastly I have been learning Korean for the past few years and would say I'm around intermediate level (although again due to lack of immersion my reading/writing are way better than my listening/speaking skills). Can also scratch some basic Japanese. When I have learnt Korean to a certain level I'd really like to learn Russian or German next!

IDK why but I have been a consistent viewer of your content like this. I do not know what exactly my irrational brain enjoys watching you ask people "How many languages do you speak?" But I love it nonetheless. I am from Nepal and yes seeing the first Nepali person in your video made me happy. Sadly, he does not speak Portuguese even though he has been there for some time as an immigrant waiting for his European Passport to then move to another country in Northern Europe. Yes, there are lots of Nepali people moving to Portugal mainly because it provides Permanent Residence quite easily compared to other developed or EU countries in this context. Lastly, your Spanish is horrible, mate. I hope this language app you mentioned helps you a lot with this. T😆
