Speaking 5+ Languages with my Polyglot Grandma (Part I)

Check out part II to this conversation → • Speaking 6+ Languages ...
The Ultimate Language Learning Guide (my online course) → bit.ly/brightt...
I had a conversation with my Grandma that included English, French, Spanish, Italian, Hebrew, (and we also touched on Arabic and Greek).
We spoke a little bit about what it's like moving to different countries, and adapting to a new culture or language. I hope you enjoy.

So true. And not just that. Somebody told me once, that when you are talking to somebody in their second, third... language or whatever, you are talking to their brains, but, if you talk to somebody's mother tongue, you reach their hearts. I'm catalan, and people just assume we speak spanish, so they just bother to learn spanish. When someone from Iceland, Poland, Germany... speaks my language, makes me feel appreciated you know... I speak five languages: catalan, spanish, english, italian and portuguese. And I learnt the last two languages cause I lived two months in Rome in 2016 and two months in Lisbon in 2018. Speaking spanish and catalan, and also english, to me it wasn't so difficult to make myself understood there, but I made the effort to learn their language, and now are mine as well.

[@YourMastery]

@Marie P. I get that for some people that's a rational response, especially if you're only going to visit for a couple of days (or not at all). I still stand by learning the language if you like the place though. You can't appreciate a culture or a person fully until you speak with them in their native language, in my experience. If you like a place you are severely handicapped in how much you can truly experience if you don't learn the language. I also feel very uncomfortable forcing someone else to speak english (my native language) in their own country because it would show that as a visitor I'd not taken any time or effort to even try to show some respect. Also in many English speaking countries the vast majority of tourists are forced to speak our language so I try to offer them the same courtesy when I'm travelling.

I think the phrase "of course" is a universal indicator that you have made a real effort to learn a language. It's a common and very easy phrase, but most people who are just learning or aren't quite conversational (most tourists and such, especially English speaking countries) haven't made that effort. And people REALLY appreciate that. I've studied Spanish from 6th grade all the way through college. And as soon as I say "claro" o "claro que sí" to someone who I'm pretty sure speaks Spanish, their demeanor immediately changes and they'll often start speaking in Spanish with me. I love it! 🙂❤️

Oh my God i am just speechless. Your grandma is absolutely impressive. Nathan: "did you find it difficult to learn languages?" Grandma: "oh.. naa" 😅👌 Awesome

[@altvctr]

I love how she is so relaxed about knowing so many languages, while Nathaniel tries to understand the underlying system of learning. Cracked me up, what a wonderful conversation, thanks for sharing!

[@1000leomessi]

Learning in a foreign country where the language is not spoken vs learning a language in its "native" country is significantly different, especially when you speak it to locals and try to adjust and integrate and constantly being around the language, obviously, it is easier in comparison to being self-taught, even after you "master" and become fluent in it.

[@SxVaNm345]

-_- 100% correct.

[@altvctr]

@@1000leomessi I completely agree with that. That's probably the fastest way to learn a language (by living in a place where it is actually spoken). It makes total sense for the two of them to have two different attitudes towards learning new languages - still, the whole "dissecting a language" hits home so much. 😅

[@connorsimmons8781]

Whenever I'm learning new language I'm always in "polyglot mode". I'm constantly asking natives about grammar and trying to add new words to my vocabulary Some native speakers are very weirded out in a way by this (the French ones I've noticed especially). Many don't know the grammar in a technical way or the names for all the tenses, moods, etc. Others just want to have a conversation instead of being your personal language tutor 😂😂😢

[@Anna1AK]

Charis Athanasopoulos however you have to understand that she grew up in a multilingual family, it’s different from having to learn a completely foreign language you’ve never heard before.

[@charisathanasopoulos1812]

GHAIDAH Abdullah land borders are human creations. No one is born with a pocket full of money. They either inherit or work their way up very hard and deserve to get more (like this beautiful woman in the video) Earth is billions years old. Borders have changed thousands of times. What’s yours today, will be someone else’s tomorrow. Open your mind

[@charisathanasopoulos1812]

Anna1AK circumstances made her adapt to the new reality she experienced every time she moved. She was a fighter and didn’t give up. I have many friends that tried to start a new life in a different country/city and quickly gave up because of the first (or second) difficulty. “Change Management” is a state of mind. Not easy, but definitely priceless.

Your grandmother is a wonderful lady, not only because of her language skills, but especially since she had to start from scratch in a new country several times over and did so with such a positive attitude! Most people would feel lost and disconnected after so many drastic changes. It does explain why both you and your parents are so prepared to start again in another country with an open mind.

[@Floral_Green]

Obviously. But then, the conception of ‘the sort of person that doesn’t agree with that sentiment’ is a strawman construction in and of itself. The most applicable thing to keep in mind is that grey-areas and nuance are all-pervasive, and that resisting the urge to simplify phenomena of life into cosy black-and-white terms is essential, both for emotional health and intellectual honesty.

You have an accent too, right now! :) Everyone has an accent, even in their first language, and it depends on how you learned it and who from. For instance, I speak US English from the southern US, my Spanish is Castellano with an Andalucian accent and my German has a Rhenish accent, but I don't hear them at all, they're just how I learned to speak. If she learned to speak French from people who spoke it with an English accent, then her native accent would also be that.

Love listening to you speak in multi-languages. Recently I sat down and made a list of the languages I am either fluent or know some basic words and phrases. It came to 16. I know it allows me to think in ways a mono speaker cannot. English is my third language and the one I am most comfortable in speaking. We are a multi-national family. I was born in Germany, took French and Spanish in school, can understand Dutch, Danish, and some Hebrew. I can also understand Gothic German, and Yiddish. What I learn from this is if you learn one language you can understand some of the associated languages.

[@plan4life]

Ulrich Semrau Don’t you get the languages mixed up, or forget words through lack of use? I would love to be multilingual. I know english (obviously) and dutch as I live in the Netherlands but I have forgotten most of the french and german I learnt at school. I tried to to teach myself Japanese over the course of several months a couple of years ago but I barely remember a word now. I think some people just have a better developed brain for languages. I have lived in the Netherlands for 18 years but still struggle with certain dutch phrases now and then.
