Portrait Of A Polyglot

[@tspier2]

As a linguist, I always find it interesting to see people attack polyglots online. Most of the world sees bilingualism -- or multilingualism -- in black-and-white, but linguists view it simply as a spectrum. Since you can never know every lexical item, every syntactic rule, or every pragmatic nuance of a linguistic system, we have to view bi- or multilingualism as a process, not as a product. Lindie, maak jy geen sorg nie! Hierdie opmerke is nie baie belangrik nie.

[@slmxoxo]

This video was very cleanly made. I would love to see more 'Portrait of a Polyglot' videos with other polyglots. Very very well done. :D

[@soffer]

damn i'm impressed!!! i'm an american trying to not die a monolingual and just learning korean is hard as hell, can't imagine piling on even one more language

+Michael Nell HI, I am Vietnamese, i am learning english, i want to improve my english speak fluently, english is my first second language, i admire you, you can study many language, you can study vietnamese by yourself, can you share to me? thank you so much.

[@alinkamia]

+soffer Hey, don't die a monolingual! Learn some Swedish! It is so close to English ))) Won't be that hard :)

[@LindieBotes]

+soffer Good luck with learning Korean! Thanks for the comment. This isn't my channel so I don't always see the comments, haha.

[@picklesandcheese25]

Well, to be fair, you're learning Korean at an older age and it is also not even related to English. Don't doubt yourself, though, you can do it.

[@RhythmAddictedState]

This should totally be a series. It would be interesting to hear other polyglots' stories too. Thank you for this video! :)

Her Mandarin, Korean and Japanese accents are fairly natural.

[@LindieBotes]

Far from it but thank you so much!

[@alisalin]

+Lindie Botes I know I'm a year late haha but I was impressed by your Chinese! You made a couple of mistakes naturally, but especially for having only learned it for one year at that point, I feel like you did incredibly well with pronunciation. You'd give many of your non-native Chinese speaker colleagues a run for their money haha!

[@LindieBotes]

I'm also a year late, but thank you so much! You can see if I've improved at all if you click my username here - you'll see more language videos on my channel :D

[@coolguy1652]

I'm also a year late, but you've inspired me to become interested in languages and learn on my own! I used to think you had to take a class in a school if you wanted to learn a language, but you showed us that's definitely not the case.

[@zengseng1234]

I'm just happy to see a female polyglot!

[@mattatiasdermakkabaer7660]

Why does her sex matter?

[@oliviablackmon8416]

@@mattatiasdermakkabaer7660 because other publications written or filmed discussing bilingualism have pointed out that it is a predominantly male demographic. Some have said "almost all polyglots are males", and some take that to mean that women are somehow biologically incapable of being polyglots. Having Lindie, especially at her age, is pretty important.😊

[@Suite_annamite]

@@mattatiasdermakkabaer7660 Because *most women are only interested in languages and cultures that are already "similar" to their own. Women are less adventurous in learning something that has nothing to do with them* ; then you find women geniuses who take pride in learning out of their own box.

I'm 16 and really into languages. I love English since it's like a global tongue whic can make you connect with people all over the world. In addition to that I speak fluent Italian and Spanish, I'm studying German and I've just started learning Japanese Hiragana and basic grammar. By the end of college, so 4 or 5 years, I want to be fluent at least in these five languages. Is that a fair goal?

[@anastasiafalcon4637]

As a native Russian speaker I'm always happy when someone's interested in my culture and language. I'm thinking of making some online English speaking club sessions maybe since I'm currently studying to become a teacher of Russian to speakers of other languages.

I come from Slovenia, so I speak Slovenian, which is one of the south Slavic languages​. But my mother's tongue is actually a special dialect of the Slovenian language, which is spoken mostly in the northeastern part of the country and is quite different from the standard language. I also understand Serbo-Croatian, Czech and Slovak, because they are very similar to Slovenian. I started learning English and German in primary school and I speak both languages fluently. I also understand Hungarian and now I'm learning Swedish. I have my relatives who live in Sweden and I can learn quite a lot from them.

As a Hungarian I can tell how hard to learn our language even if you are native speaker, so I respect that a lot! Outside of Hungarian I can speak English, but I often make grammar mistakes. I should practice speaking not just listening. :D Now I'm learning Korean, I really like it because it does not feel like learning at all, it is so much fun!

I just couldn't be studying 3-4 languages at the same time i would argue it would be better to learn them one at a time and take the time to master your knowledge at a level where you can easily read books and stuff. I'm a french speaker, i've learn english in school and studied german all by myself and after 3 years now i read 18-19 century and old german poetry so i began to learn Japanese and made nice progress. If you forget everything at the end because you don't use it, it was not worth the time you put into it.

OK, if your French is only a trhee-month-bvaby then it is pretty good... As said, maybe you should focus on languages that are more useful to you should you choose to work as a translator or interpreter...

Leonardo Castro That's so true. It's way faster to reach a basic conversational level than to move on from that to advanced/fluent. And yeah my goals arent to be fluent in every single language but just to enjoy myself as this is a side hobby from my actual degree of graphic design. Thanks for the comments!
