At this point the show has to make it clear to the guesser if we're guessing just the language or the nationality. Because in Europe, there are a good number of countries with multiple official languages while some just share the same national language. Like a person speaking French might not be from France, a person speaking Dutch might not be from the Netherlands etc. Countries like Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Luxembourg definitely make the guessing much harder 😂. Of course the European natives may argue that there are different dialects, regional accents, different pronunciation of words or choice of vocab that they can pick up and use to distinguish the different countries. But for a complete beginner to the language, or for a foreigner, we definitely struggle to identity the language itself let's not talk about accents. 🤣

[@gecko3890]

I will correct you in the phrase you say "no way similar to other European Languages". Greek, Latin, Slavic, and Germanic are the predominant European branches that created the Languages. Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and some French come from Latin, for example. But all languages, including English, have a bunch of Greek words in their vocabulary, and some of them are not only for academic purposes. I believe that if she was speaking with a typical Greek accent, you would understand her immediately.

[@yvs6663]

@@gecko3890 Greek is its own language family and while some words in English do come from Greek(since they basically invented some of the things they describe), far more words in English come from Romance languages like Spanish(and maybe French). so an English speaker would recognise more words in a Spanish scentence than they would in a Greek scentence.

[@reidbennett3586]

I have taken classes in Spanish and Italian and I get the two mixed up all the time. 3 years of Spanish in high school and one semester of Italian in college. Since most of the words are of the same origin, when guessing I rely on the accent which makes it hard because both languages have many accents. I'm learning German right now so that one was easy for me. I picked out the Dutch easily because it sounds like German but with that "j" sound and more nasally vowels, but I couldn't narrow it down between Belgium and the Netherlands until she named her country's famous foods. The only one I did not get right was Greece, I have so little exposure to it that I had no idea what to listen for (other than "helle"). All of my education in Greek and Roman history used Latinized terms for everything, especially because so much of it was in Latin class.

[@summerfish9320]

Greek and Spanish have extremely similar phonology. That's why they sound so similar. Of course both have different roots, Spanish comes from Latin and both Greek and Spanish must go back to Indo-European for a common ancestor. The similar phonology is a coincidence.

Many US citizens are used to the accent of Latino-American countries, they have never heard proper Castillian speakers with their specific sounds that don't exist in Mexico or other places like these.

the greek girl doesnt sound a lot like she's from greece cause of her accent she maybe is from cyprus (im greek so i said that about the accent)

[@Robert89349]

Since the video is about nationality and not ethnicity, the girl speaking Greek is definitely not Greek, but Cypriot. Her accent is 100% Cypriot, as well as her name. Ellada is very popular in Cyprus but I've never met anyone in Greece with this name.

[@user-vo5mf3ly9s]

My friend for us the brothers of Cyprus are Greeks also like the others places in Greece have their accent,of course is different state but the same nation

[@Robert89349]

@@user-vo5mf3ly9s The title says guess the nationality. In the English language nationality is different from ethnicity. Nationality has to do with your citizenship, the sovereign state's passport you carry. Greeks and Greek Cypriots, share the same ethnicity but not the same nationality. Read my comment carefully, it starts with "since the video is about nationality and not ethnicity", which means that I know that Greeks and Greek-Cypriots belong in the same ethnic group.

[@katerinaO_o]

Ellada is also a very common Pontian name, she herself said she's from Greece so I would assume she's proably not Cypriot. She might be of Pontian refugee heritage, which would explain the accent.

[@Robert89349]

@@katerinaO_o I am Pontian myself from both parents, Ellada is not a common pontian name and her accent is not pontian at all. I'm fluent in pontic Greek dialect, I grew up with two grandmas that had no Greek schooling because they were born in Russia and spoke only pure pontic Greek. This is a Cypriot accent and Ellada is a common name in Cyprus. The only accent that is similar to that is the accent of Archangelos village on Rhodes, but there are no Elladas in Rhodes as well. It is pretty obvious that they said Greece because there was almost 0 chance that an American would know what Cyprus is. I am just stating the obvious, that the girl is Cypriot. No matter how proud and nationalistic a Cypriot can be, still their nationality is not Greek. The video is about nationality and not ethnicity. Is it so difficult for people to understand what I said?

Everyone saying the Greek girl is from Cyprus, I doubt she is, she has a foreign (and not Cypriot) accent because she also made grammatical and syntactical mistakes. She is either half-Greek or a Greek immigrant.

[@C_R_O_M________]

I'm amazed by the ignorance of this American girl. She didn't know where pasta and pizza come from not to mention that she initially claimed familiarity with the German and French languages and had no idea what the German girl was saying. Utter failure of the American public educational system. The only thing that confused me was the Flemish language of the Belgian girl. Many speak French there, perhaps half or more of the population.

she sounds a bit Cypriot , the Greek one

I love how she pretends to not knowing the language,... I mean come on man !, You're from the states and you're living in a multinational environment and you don't know right away that "Hola" is a pure spanish word ? 😒😒 Same as for the Italian one, ...
