GUESS THE LANGUAGE GAME 

🇬🇧 Guys, I apologise for using the map that shows the territories of Ukraine occupied by Russia. At the time of making the video, I just took a random pic from google and was like ok it works. Sorry! Glory to Ukraine! ------------------ 🇺🇦 Друзі, я перепрошую за використання мапи, де окуповані українські території показані як російські. Коли я робив це відео, я просто взяв випадкове зображення з ґуґлу і вирішив, що воно цілком норм. Вибачте! Слава Україні!

I confused myself with Portuguese and Russian yet I guessed Navajo correctly lol. Also I only knew it was Icelandic because they said Iceland mid sentence.

Guessed 4 out of them, but could define language families of like 3 or 4 of them.

Okay, I'm a native Spanish speaker. I got tipsy and decided to do this. After Japanese, I got dissociated thinking about other things, then I remembered to pay attention when the second person was about to finish speaking. And from the half a second I actually heard, I thought RUSSIAN. I saw the answer and I was flabbergasted. I always heard people say that Portuguese sounds like a Russian trying to speak Spanish but never understood, to me Portuguese was just Portuguese. I can't say I don't get it now hahahaha second time I heard it I understood everything but I had an epiphany hahahaha

I got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Hungarian, Vietnamese, but after was total lapsus memoriae. Icelandic sounds like Swedish or Danish, Czech like Serbian or Croatian, Tuvan like Kazakh or Uighur, Punjabi like Hindi, Yiddish like one of German dialects, Kurdish like Persian, Navajo like Tibetan. Haha

I struggle to guess exact languages but I can accurately point out the region where the language is spoken when I hear to

1. Japanese (Correct). I know a little Japanese and it's very easy for me to understand. 2. Russian (Wrong, Portuguese). It looked a lot like Russian to me and that's why I made mistake. 3. Russian (Correct). I just guessed right. 4. A European language (half right 😄, Hungarian). From the tone of their speech, I understood that it was for Europe, but I didn't understand which language it was. 5. Thai (Wrong, Vietnamese). The tone of speaking of Southeast Asian countries is very similar. 5. A European language (half right, Czech). From the tone of their speech, I understood that it was for Europe, but I didn't understand which language it was. 6. Nothing (Wrong, Icelandic). I couldn't recognize it at all. 7. Kurdish (Correct). I'm from Iran and many of my compatriots are Kurds. That's why I recognized it easily. 8. Hebrew (Wrong, Yiddish). I know that these two languages aren't directly related to each other, but they seem to be a little similar. 9. Hindi or Urdu (Wrong, Punjabi). They are very similar. 10. Turkey's Turkish (Half right, Tuvan). It's a language of the Turkic language family, but it's not a well-known language. Just from it tone and words, I thought it was Turkey's Turkish. 11. A Native American language (Half right). I had previously seen some videos about Native American languages, so I understood that this language belongs there, but I didn't know which language it is.

Guessed the Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Hungarian, I have talked to a Czech and I can even understand a big part of the words but I didn't manage to guess it except the language family of course, I guessed the language family of Icelandic and Kurdish too, thought that Yiddish sounds so German but not German

I only got one answer right which is Japanese and I do speak Japanese 🇯🇵

okay, so here's my attempt (SPOILER WARNING): 1. japanese (CORRECT) - it's just sooo recognizable, there was no way it was something else 2. polish (WRONG - portuguese) - idk the way the reporter said certain constonants sorta reminded me of that 3. russian (CORRECT) - also pretty recognizable 4. hungarian (CORRECT) - guessed it INSTANTLY cuz I'm a native lol 5. thai (WRONG - vietnamese) - basically it was a 50/50 between thai and vietnamese, should've went with my gut feeling 6. czech (CORRECT) - we were definitely in the central european area, and it didn't sounded like polish, so it was either czech or slovakian, but mid-sentence I've just heard "ano" and "dobry den" and I was like "yup, czech for sure!" 7. icelandic (CORRECT) - gotta admit the first reason I've guessed that is because I've heard "icelandic lava" lol, but in my defense, it also sounded like if you were to mix norwegian and celtic together 8. yoruba (WRONG - kurdish) - i was way off... 9. yiddish (CORRECT) - it absolutely sounded like old german with a jewish accent, so it had to be that 10. urdu (WRONG - punjabi) - we were definitely on the hindustani area with this one... but there are a lot of languages in that area, and it wasn't hindi for sure cuz it would've been too obvious, well... it wasn't hindi, or urdu 11. armenian (WRONG - tuvan) - I really heard some russian and some turkic influence in it so I was like "somewhere in the caucasus" 12. ainu (WRONG - navajo) - That one was really hard for me, and I've really had no idea what it could've been

Very difficult, just guessed a few 🙈

My guesses (12/6): 01 Japanse - correct 02 Portugal - correct (sounds like Russian but with some Spanish-like words) 03 Russian - correct (sounds like Russian but without any Spanish-like words) 04 Hungarian - correct (my mothertongue) 05 Vietnamise - correct (sounds like ding-dong-king-kong) 06 Ukrainian - incorrect (I caught the word 'ukraine') 07 Icelandic - correct (Beacuse of the 3 stars I was also thinking of Faroese) 08 Afghan? - incorrect (I caught the word 'talabani') 09 Dutch - incorrect (a lot of German words but clearly not German) 10 Hindi - incorrect (I knew it was an Indian language) 11 ??? 12 ???

guess: Turkish right answer: Icelandic guess: something turkic right answer: Tuvan

Most neutral sounding Japanese ever. I was expecting some more stress on vowels as I have heard in Anime.

score: 5/12 1) Japanese 2) Romanian (Portuguese) 3) Russian 4) Estonian (Hungarian) 5) Vietnamese 6) Czech 7) Icelandic 8) Persian (Kurdish) 9) Danish (Yiddish) 10) Hindi (Punjabi) 11) Kyrgyz (Tuvan) 12) ?? (Navajo)

My home town has some of the most Navajo speakers in the US, so I got that one right, but it is a struggling language because the young people aren’t learning it and the old people who speak it are dying.

1. Japanese 2. Russian 3. Russian 4. Danish 5. Vietnamese 6. Ukranian 7. Icelandic 8. ??????? 9. German 10. Punjabi 11. ?????? 12. Mandarin 13.

Wow, Hungarian sounds very Asian. I thought it was Mongolian or kazakh and I thought Portuguese was a South Slavic language, it's like a mixture of Latin and Slavic.

This map feels off for some reason. I got navajo russian and icelandic only

My guesses: 1. Japanese 2. Portuguese 3. Russian 4. Czech (x) 5. Vietnamese 6. Turkmen (x) 7. Icelandic (because they said iceland) 8. Azerbaijani (x) 9. Guessed some sort of Dutch-German dialect (x) 10. Some indian language (x) 11. Some eastern Russian language (x) (close enough) 12. No idea

1) Japanese 2) (no guess) - Portuguese 💀 3) russian- I'm a native speaker LMAO 4) albanian- Hungarian 5) Vietnamese 6) Arabic- Czech 7) dutch- Icelandic 8) no guess- Kurdish 9) German- Yiddish 10) tamil- Punjabi 11) Albanian- Turan 12) no guess- Navajo

I guessed: Japanese (I've watched enough anime to recognize it) Portuguese (It's my mother tongue) Russian (I'm not fluent, but I've heard russian in movies)

vietnamese you could identify because of the "click sounds" they do with their tounge

i got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Icelandic, Kurdish, Yiddish, Punjabi right -I speak Persian, Swedish, English and a little French +learning italian

I got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Icelandic, Kurdish, Yiddish, and Navajo. I knew Punjabi was South Asian but guessed Rajasthani when the guy mentioned Rajasthan. I also knew Tuvan was Turkic but ended up guessing Uighur. Funny enough I got Hungarian way wrong. I guessed it was a weird Armenian dialect or a member of one of the Caucasian language families lol

Here are my guesses: 1. Japanese. 2. Portuguese. 3. Russian. 4. Hungarian. 5. Cambodian. 6. Czech. 7. Icelandic. 8. Armenian. 9. Yiddish. 10. Hindi. 11. Yakut. I'm a native Spanish speaker from Mexico.

Got all of them correctly, except Tuvan, but I thought it was Mongolian so, almost the same

I confused Russian, Czech and Hungarian with Polish 😂

My guesses: 1. Japanese 2. Russian --> How on earth did I think Portuguese was Russian 😂😭 3. Russian 4. Finnish --> At least I guessed a Uralic language 5. Thai --> I guessed Mandarin, Thai, and Vietnamese, but settled on Thai 6. Ukrainian --> I knew it was a Slavic language, just didn't know which one 7. Icelandic 8. I can't remember what I guessed, but at one point I think I considered Turkish 😂 --> At least my guess for Turkish was from around the right region of the world 9. Yiddish 10. Punjabi --> Also was thinking maybe Hindi or Bengali, but decided on the right language 11. Kazakh --> I initially thought maybe a Siberian language since I know there are Turkic Siberian people groups, but decided against them choosing two languages spoken in Russia, so I decided it had to be some other Turkic language. 12. Indigenous Australian language --> I guessed either an Indigenous American language or an Indigenous Australian language of some sort, but decided on an Indigenous Australian language

I got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Czech, Icelandic. I didn't guess right Yiddish but I knew it was a language from the German family. Also I hadn't heard about Tuvan but when I heard it I was like "It sounds like Turkish but it's not". (I have been learning Turkish for years, so I know.) But at least I knew it was a part of the Turkic family. I'm ashamed I didn't recognize Hungarian. I love this language. 😔

Tuvan sounded alot like Türkish man you got me there😂

This was fun. Proud of myself for correctly guessing Punjabi. Mention of Rajasthan pointed me that way, but it sounded Indian to me even before I picked that up. I guessed Kazakh instead of Tuvan - I had the idea it was Turkic, and Russian-influenced, so I'm quite proud of that. I correctly identified Russian. I got that Czech was a Slavic language. I had an idea that it wasn't Polish, so guessed Ukrainian. Icelandic was recognisable; consonants have a distinct accent. Navajo honestly sounded Celtic to me. I guessed Manx, as I didn't think it was Gaelic!

As a native Hungarian, I find it pretty funny (no offense) that the most people guess for example greek or icelandic instead of Hungarian🤣 so that some people can't even guess it🤣 but congrats for guessing something else🤣👏

I got Japanese immediately, then Portuguese, I had some doubts about Russian being either Russian or Ukrainian but still got it right, got Vietnamese, Punjabi cause that's my own language, Icelandic cause the newscaster said the word "Iceland" Others were so not mainstream languages that I never would've guessed, also I confused Yiddish with High German 😂

That was cruel to put Portuguese right before Russian lol

I somehow got Navajo right even though I've never heard the language in my life

1/12, but at least in most cases geographical areas were guessed right 🤣👌

Bro. I am native Czech speaker. I am very confused about that we speak, Vietnames in Czechia 😂 also Bro I don't think that in Bosna and Hercegovina they speak czech etc... but I'm glad you added our language to the video! ❤

Okay here we go: - Japanese (correct) - Russian (incorrect) - Russian (Correct) - Greek or smth? (incorrect) - Vietnamese (Correct) - Ukrainian? (Incorrect) - Icelandic? (correct) - Brazilian Portuguese or smth? (Incorrect lolol) - It's some kind of German but prob like Luxembourgisch German (well shit) - No idea it sounds Turkish (incorrect) - Kyrgyz? (ahhhh no) - Canadian Aboriginal? no clue (incorrect) Well didn't go so well

being russain, I confused portuguese and serbian, i didn’t expect that portuguese sounds so slavic and confused polish and czech (but i was close)

I always like this type of game, guessing the language by listening to it, and I got totally surprised that the first one is my mother tongue 😁

i guessed Japanese,Russian,Kurdish,Punjabi,

I got 5/12. Portuguese Russian Vietnamese Icelandic Yiddish I somehow confused Japanese for Korean and Czech for Polish.😂

Me and my family decided to do this quiz and were very surprised about Navajo being on here!! I shocked us so much we had to make sure our ears were working 😂

Portuguese ✔ Hungarian ✔ Russian ✔ Punjabi ✔ Icelandic ✔ Vietnamese ✔ Somehow mixed up japanese with Hindi and Yiddish with German 😂😂😂

As a turkish, i confirm tuvan sounds like turkish. It's sounds like a dialect like kazakh or kyrgz i think. Becuase it was spoken with a russian-ish accent as i hear.

My guesses (12/2): 😅 Japanse - correct (I've watched enough anime to recognize it) (sound Korean and Japanese) Portugal - correct (sounds like Spanish, French, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese words)

I got 5 right Japanese, Russian, Icelandic, Vietnamese and Kurdish.

Tipsy american here... the ones I got right were Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Czech, Icelandic, Punjabi

I guessed Japanese, Russian, Vietnamese, Icelandic and Punjabi Right. I put Kurdish into the right direction at least (was thinking something along the arabic lines) and I didn't know what Tuvan was but I thought it sounded like combining Chinese and Russian, which doesn't seem too far fetched judging by the results.

I got Russian Icelandic and Punjabi

I got Japanese, Russian, Punjabi, Kurdish, Portuguese and Vietnamese right. The others were too similar to other languages from the same language family. Btw, I took Hungarian for a Central Asian turkic language.

I’m astounded that people thought Portuguese was Russian - no similarities to my mind! And i can’t speak either of them.

I'm not gonna lie to me, the Icelandic dude sounded like a Norwegian/Swede/Dane talking with a mouth full of marbles

I got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Czech, Icelandic, and Navajo. Hungarian was very confusing, I wasn't sure what it was. Kurdish sounded a lot like Persian but not quite like it, and I ran out of time before guessing. Yiddish was a lot like German but I thought it would not make sense for German to be on Expert level and I ran out of time before guessing. Essentially all languages of northern India/Pakistan sound the same to me, so I guessed Hindi-Urdu for Punjabi because it is the most spoken. I thought that Tuvan was Kazakh or Kyrgyz, which is close but incorrect.

I missed Czech (I knew it was west Slavic but I said Slovakian), Kurdish (Again, same area...I said Dari) and Tuvan (just had no idea). Great stuff mate!

I got Russian, Czech, Japanese, Portuguese, and maybe something else I don't remember.

My guesses: 1) Japanese, EZ✅ 2) Portuguese✅ 3) Russian, happy 2021 ig✅ 4) like finnish but not really, central European but not really... oh, Hungarian? Yes EZ✅ 5) SEA but somewhat like canto, so Vietnamese✅ 6)Czech news monkaOMEGA✅ 7) Shit idk, could it ever be Nordic.. oh she literally said it's Icelandic, cheating but I'll take it✅ 8) Uhh.. sounds kinda Turkish but not really... idk Georgian? ❌ 9) Someone speaking German with a strong accent❌ lmao 10) Deffo Indian, oh he said Rajasthan that's up north, deffo not Hindi so Sikh language ✔it was Punjabi, I'll count it 11) Turkic but with a Russian accent... Tatar? ❌ 12) No clue... not indo european, doesn't sound asiatic... maybe an indigenous language of the Americas, let's say Cherokee?❌ So 7/7 and then I was completely fucked, 8/13 if we count Punjabi, ayy not bad!

I got Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamnese, Icelandic, Yiddish and Punjabi. For Portuguese and Vietnamese I had to rely more on my logic, though. And well, Icelandic... I heard something in the audio clip that confirmed it was indeed Icelandic. For me personally, there weren't enough languages to guess here. But I had my fun. Thank you.

I just realised how punjabi is more known to world than any other indian language

My guesses: 1. Japanese 2. Portuguese 3. Russian 4. Hungarian 5. Vietnamese 6. Ukrainian* 7. Iceland (they said "Iceland" in the clip) 8. Turkish* 9. Dutch* (i knew it was Germanic but nothing else came to me) 10. Hindi* and i wasn't even close for the rest LOL

I got a few, I didn't know kurdish, I mistook Yiddish for Letzeburgisch, I had no clue of Tuvan and Navajo and I guessed Hindi unstead of Punjabi.

The last one was god tier

Guessed all of the easy ones right, guessed Icelandic because they literally said 'Iceland', and Yiddish because I'm Israeli and am familiar with the language (I have Yiddish-speaking grandparents. Besides, some of the Yiddish words are eerily similar to Hebrew and the audio is literally about the Holocaust)

bro the hungarian 2:40 is suprised me bc i'm hungarian and i understood it said: pedagogues from America came to Zalaegerszeg to teach English to the locals for three weeks, eleven on-demand teachers in the kepzes to help those interested from very young children to seniors

5 correct (Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Czech), 2 approximately (German instead of Yiddish, Hindi instead of Punjabi), in one case only the family (Tuvan).

The only one we were able to guess was punjabi and we literally started laughing for no reason 🤣

Trust me nobody speaks czech in Romania

1:53 Russian 3:09 vietnamese 6:24 punjabi

Got it all right except of hungarian

German with more "kh" sounds is basically Yiddish

Senki: Én: még mindig várom hogy Zsolt mit akart mondani🤓

My guesses: Japanese Portuguese Russian Albanian (Hungarian) Thai (Vietnamese) Polish (Czech) Icelandic Dari (Kurdish) German (Yiddish) Rajasthani (Punjabi : which I don't think is accurate) Azeri (Tuvan) Georgian (Navajo) I am a Bengali speaker.

I got Navajo, Japanese Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese and also Yiddish because as a German myself it sounded similar but It didn't sound like any of the dialects

I guessed Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Hindi (Punjabi) 😅

Got them all but Kurdish (guessed persian), Vietnamese (guessed "somwhere in indochina"), Punjabi (guessed hindi), Tuvan (guessed "some kind of turkish") and Navajo (guessed greenlandic) So think I was pretty damn close! ;-)

FINALLY A VIDEO WITH NAVAJO!! I LEARN THIS LANGUAGE

Got right Japanese, Portuguese, Hungarian and Icelandic. Did not guess Russian but could guess that it's Slavic. Honestly, I find it very hard to distinguish between e.g. Russian, Ukrainian and Belarussian. I was almost sure that Yiddish was Dutch, although it kinda has a strange German feel to it.

I guess only 4. Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Punjabi.

4: I got, Portuguese, Russian, Vietnamese, Yiddish, I thought Punjabi was Urdu, so I wasn't so far off. Mad at myself for not getting Japanese, I guessed Mandarin, sorry. The last one I guessed Kiribati, haha.

The Punjabi dude literally said "Rajasthan" and the Czech guy said "česta" not to mention the Iceland

Got 5 of them Japanese, Vietnamese, Russian, Icelandic and Punjabi Also got most of the families right, except Navajo i really thought it as a language from Middle East

0:37 japanese 1:13 portugese 1:51 russian 2:30 hungarian 3:34 czech 4:22 Icelandic

I was so ready for it to be hard but then the first language played... I speak Japanese

I have 5 language and right now I learn Hindi

My guesses: Japanese Ok Portuguese Ok Russian Ok Hungarian Ok Cantonese Close Croatian Close Estonian Not close Turkish Close Yiddish Ok Hindi Close Kazakh Close? Greenlandic somehow close.

I guessed Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Hungarian, Vietnamese and Yiddish. I thought Punjabi was Urdu and I didn't even know Tuvan language existed but it sounded very Russian to me. Although I knew it wasn't Russian the lady speaking it was clearly a native Russian speaker as well so it makes sense. I wasn't even close with Icelandic lol..

Only got 5 (Japanese, Russian, Vietnamese, Icelandic, Punjabi) :P

I thought Kurdish was a dialect of Farsi and was stumped. Such an interesting language.

Scores: Japanese Russian (wrong) Russian Swedish (wrong) Vietnamese Polish (wrong) Norwegian (wrong) Croatian (wrong) Yiddish Hindi (wrong) Turkish (wrong) Welsh (wrong)

I got 3 😄 Japanese, Russian & Vietnamese.

The hungarian newscaster sounds extremely tired lmao💀💀

The Japanese I got so fast because it sounded like Japanese (;-;) and they said ‘ Nihon’ which means ‘ Japan’ in Japanese ✨

Are you from Uzbekistan

My guesses: 1. Japanese 2. Italian 3. Russian 4. Turkish 5. Vietnamese 6. Czech 7. Danish 8. Hindi 9. Arabic 10. Kazakhstanian 11. Mongolian 12. Somalian Atleast i guessed right continent.

Vietnamese: spoken in Vietnam... and in Czechia !? Are you sure ?

Anyone gonna talk about how they say the word "Icelandic" in the Icelandic clip?

I didn't guess Czech (surprisingly), Yiddish (I always confuse it with Nordic languages), Kurdish, Tuvan (which is a shame cuz I'm from Russia) and Navajo.

I got Hungarian and Russian and I thought Yiddish was the German they speak in Switzerland haha. And from more languages I thought that is was another language haha.

急に天気予報が始まってあれれ？って思ったら、まさかの1問目が日本語だった。
