Sign up for Fluyo (my language app) 👉 fluyoapp.com/ I speak all of my languages back to back, and explain how I learned them. Super excited because this is the first time I speak in all of my languages on camera. I know I've made a ton of videos on language learning, how to learn languages and being a polyglot. But I'm pretty sure this video (aside from my VRchats) is the first time where I put my money where my mouth is! Let me know if you enjoy the video, want any follow up language learning tips, and be sure to sign up to my upcoming language learning app Fluyo. P.s.

as a native Japanese speaker, what amazes me is he really doesn’t make grammar mistakes sometimes his English accent appears but it is unavoidable,so nobody cares his language skills are incredible tbh
@@36gradus81 Same for Dutch, but I don't blame him for that. Most Dutch people, especially people my/our age, are quite proficient in English. His Dutch is much better than most international students speak, so I applaud him for that fact.
Despite his illness, Ikenna keeps rightfully declaring that he's the coolest polyglot on RU-vid. So cool to watch you transition from language to language. Plus I appreciate how you showed it wasn't effortless and took a second to switch from one to another!
He is amazing indeed!😍 There are couple of them I would describe as better in terms of number of language they can speak, such as Wouter Corduwener, Steve Kaufman, etc. But this is not a competition, at least I believe so. Ikenna is unique language enthusiast for sure.😊
The Time you need to switch languages actually depends on the person or rather if they grew up bilingual or not. For those who did it can be an instant transition depending on how good you speak the other language. Still impressive tho.
Not only learning, but maintaining multiple languages is really, really hard! Impressed by your dedication Ikenna! Wish you lots of luck with your new app ❤️
Your Russian is awesome, I don’t speak it but I can understand a lot. My native Language is Polish and both my parents speak Russian fluently. You’re awesome 😎 keep up the good work!
That's sooo inspirational, Ikenna-san! 👏 I can imagine that the more languages you learn, the harder it is to keep them all. Especially in your case it's really amazing that you can speak so much in this difficult health condition. I really admire you for facing any difficulties in a positive and strong way. Hats off to you. And I'm looking forward to the app!🔥
It's so fascinating to hear you speak Dutch! I'm South African and it sounded like you were speaking Afrikaans (which is practically Dutch's child). Ek kan jou die hele dag kyk, Ikenna! You're a true inspiration.
@@jornptrn7248 I also am from Belgium, native French speaker, I learned a little bit of Dutch, unfortunately not enough and I'm so sad about it, I lost almost everything, but with my English and my little Dutch I also understand a little bit of Afrikaans, that's so weird! 😮
I love how you transitioned between the different languages, especially the segue to Igbo! Estoy muy orgulloso de ti porque recuerdo que hace unos años no podías hablar español con tanta confianza pero ahora hablas muy bien! Enhorabuena 🥳 y buena suerte para tu aplicación Fluyo!
Truly an inspiration, man. Your Spanish is quite good now. I remember you couldn't speak much just 1 year ago. BIG GRATS! Best of luck with Fluyo. I already signed up.
As a biracial woman (Ukrainian/African-American), French immersion school kid, East Asian languages uni grad, who listens to/dances to salsa, kizomba and samba, and also wants to learn Igbo to honor my Naija ancestry, I feel like you are my brother from another mother or male spiritual doppelgänger. I approve of your singing transitions. Mo Li Hua is my personal 中文 jam. Tuyo is also a bop.
I'm a Nigerian (100%) who's been trying to learn another language for the longest time! First I tried french, and now I'm trying to learn Arabic 😃. I'm already bilingual (I'm Yorùbá😌) and I reeeeally want to add another language to my "language portfolio" if you could say😅. Anyway, sorry for the rambling, but seeing comments such as yours motivates me! Thank you!
I have an idea for your app. How about you make up a custom currency for the app and we buy the lessons with that currency? We can get the currency for free by running ads with a button. If you don't want to run ads then you can get the premium trial!
I love how you switched languages with songs or memes 😂😂 love it. And I'm so glad that you stood up! Ikenna you're so inspirational. I mean you speak 8 languages!!! Polyglot master show us the way!! 😂 I'm so excited to use fluyo!
ОООО я не ожидал что из Латвии так друзья появятся у тебя, несмотря на то что страна даже не на 2 миллиона населена! Я сам из Латвии и у меня такое ощущение слышать это, очень позитивное! Вообщем, это невероятно!
I am glad you're back, love these videos, still impressive how you managed to learn all of these languages. I am from Russia and i am really proud of you.
Little note on the French - Make sure not to forget to make your adjectives agree with the noun. Example- La culture japonaise... mon histoire française, etc. Glad to see you are doing so well, Ikenna! And I am super proud of the app you are developing. Excited to see what comes of it ☺
Honnêtement en étant français cela est vraiment pas mal l'accent la prononciation même mais dés fois tu te trompes mais franchement c'est impressionnant.
I actually learn English and Japanese. My english is far much advanced than my Japenese btw. But you and your content on YT motivated me to keep learning English, and also start to learn Japanese. And I fell in love with language learning. I actually speak fluently only my native language (French). But I'm able de communicate with people in English even if I'm not fluent, and it's juste so satisfying de be able to talk with peoples from an other country, understand even if not entirely videos or movies in an other language etc... . I know that after I'll get better in English and Japanese, I'll just don't stop learning languages. So, what I just want to say, is thanks you for your videos !
I just wanted to say this as a native english speaker: For not being fluent, your written comment wasn't too badly written. You made a few mistakes, but the message was pretty well done. Keep practicing and you will get there!
Impresionante! Mis dos idiomas son el español y el inglés, pero me das inspiración para aprender el japonés también. Es difícil en esta parte del mundo porque no hay recursos para aprenderlo cómo español y inglés. Espero que Speakly va a agregar tarjetas de japonés para aprender palabras más fácilmente! Y también estoy emocionado para usar Fluyo!
Hola! Estudio japonés y a veces veo japoneses en RU-vid y Instagram que enseñan japonés en español. Sí, hay más recursos en inglés pero todavía es posible aprender japonés si prefieres. Tengo un playlist de japonés (tengo MUCHOS vídeos 😅) y hay unos vídeos en español también. ¡Buena suerte y no te rindes!
Es cómico, pero estoy aprendiendo español y me entiendo todo la conversación, te ayuda mucho jaja! Pero sobre japonés, puedes intentar que encontrar libros o ver videos en RU-vid. Especialmente que japonés es muy popular ahora. No sé dónde vives, pero muchas informaciones en línea es típicamente en inglés.
@@nhan156 a good textbook i work from daily for the most part is easy Spanish for beginners and short stories in Spanish for beginners (it’s a novel with guided questions) Text book for understanding and granmar, and the short stories for comprehension
Hi Ikenna :) I'm a student currently learning Russian, and I've emailed you a proposal for an upcoming project I'm starting myself, as you are the reason I decided to start it. Thank you for all you're doing. It's a beautiful thing
That PIZĢETS part cranked me up a bit. A bit rude word you choose but nevertheless, I died of laughter. 👌😂 P.s. Oh! never though you would have Latvian friends. That's amazing!
I'm currently learning Russian, about 30 minutes a day. Between my job, family, and trying to get an apartment ready for us to move into, it's all I can do. Have no real reason to learn it besides, I have wanted to learn a language, and the last few times I have tried it's been Danish and French, and due to hobbies or interests that have faded, where as this has no reason besides doing something for 30 minutes a day regardless what it is. I'm focusing solely on listening and speaking, though the letters aren't that difficult to me, the understanding of spoken Russian is most difficult for me. Besides the vocabulary, I've only been studying about 2 weeks now, and have always come back to your videos for inspiration with learning any one of them. Спасибо, ты вдохновение Apologies for Grammer but you probably understand.
Quoi mais tu habites à Bruxelles (enfin vous, ta fiancée et toi !) ? Si ça t'intéresse d'apprendre le portugais on a un groupe de percussions brésiliennes, si tu veux venir nous voir un de ces jours :) J'apprends avec la communauté brésilienne ici, ma 4ème langue Hâte de voir Fluyo Ikenna
Russian needs a lot of work my guy 😅 But don't worry, it really is just a matter of time especially with such a difficult case system. One thing I'd suggest is focusing on pronunciation as well. Russian is spoken and enunciated with more open mouth (if that makes sense), and that gives it its characteristic sound. Otherwise solid job!
I love that you included the hiccups and the thoughts and pauses in your speaking, showing that it doesn’t have to be perfect! Thank you so much always an inspiration :)
EVERYONE was shit at spanish in school. There's a big difference between being forced to pass tests because of school for languages you don't currently use, and developing an interest to opening up your brain blurble to new languages
I'm in the middle of learning Korean, and even though I know it won't initially be on fluyo, I'm going to support the Kickstarter. I love the content and the journey, so I'll do my part to help make the app successful.
You're absolutely amazing. Your Japanese is awesome. I also have one video in my channel speaking several languages and it's a short one. I'm thinking of creating a much longer video. Anyway, greetings from Croatia!
Damn, I was getting so exited for German, but it never came XD. viel glück, aber bitte versucht's nächstens, es wäre sehr cool sein wenn du's tun würdest!
I'm 17 years old boy and person who emigrated to Russia 10 years ago. About Russian grammar I will say that is very difficult to learn it. And 35% of Russian know well grammar and can write with out mistake. It's not only about teens, also I can say that about adults. I hope you can learn grammar. And I can recomend ЕГЭ сборник по русскому Дрябкина, Субботин 2023. This book has usefull information for learning Russian grammar.
Well I have the luxury of knowing Spanish and English and being able to switch between them without zero but I was genuinely impressed at how good his spanish was.
Thank you very much for being such inspiration, as someone who is also struggling to learn languages, your videos has been of great help...I'm patiently waiting for the lunching of your app 😁 keep going...
Not a Native Spanish speaker, but fluent and learning it for 3 years: your Spanish is much better now than it was when you first started it, so props! The only thing I’d say needs a bit of work is the pauses between words, but other than that, you’re really good.
I am from Brazil, 14 years old. I've been learning different languages such as French, Spanish and even started learning Russian recently, but before mastering those, I feel like I have to improve my English pronunciation first, because I have a really strong accent. Anyone has tips on how can I improve my English pronunciation?
Did I just see you standing up? What a pleasant surprise. So happy that your situation is at least getting better even occasionally. I guess that as your native Nigeria is a multi-language country with English as its Lingua Franca, I am guessing that these English words popping up during speech may be an actual representation of Igbo too. I saw this many times in India and Philippines. An English word here and there during a dialogue in Hindi (or Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi etc) and Tagalog (or Cebuano, etc)
I'm from Nigeria🇳🇬 and I'm Igbo. And yes, you're correct, to an extent. We do borrow some words from the English Language. But the mixture occurs with people that are not exactly too fluent in the language yet. A very fluent speaker can tell an entire story in Igbo, without having to mix in any English unless it's absolutely necessary. And the necessity would arise as a result of words that didn't previously exist until much later in contemporary times (and even those words are slowly developing Igbo alternatives). Ikenna is doing so good, I'm so proud of him. If he keeps at it; practicing it, and most of all, having conversations in the language with fluent speakers (his family), he'll keep getting better and better. Added Bonus: This isn't related, but Ikenna means "Father's Strength". Very nice name 😊
1. No me vas a creer* 2. La seguridad personal* (instead of "la confiencia"). 3. Al pasar el tiempo (instead of "con posterioridad". Your Spanish is understandable and you don't have a thick accent. Altough I'd say you're more fluent in French and Japanese.
Bold move going from talking about being inspired by a game that kills you to directly talk about your own game. I hope you didn't take too much inspiration from Sword Art Online there, haha.
Yes! Knowing 3 languages to various degrees of fluency I can say that his French, Igbo and, get this... English, 😏 are good! Can any other of the language native speakers confirm he wasn't playing us?😅
International chat is so cool. You can meet so many friends and speak with it. And polyglots is so beautiful people. I also learn English but I can’t speak fluently and I don’t understand some words. Sorry for my mistakes Have a good day/night ❤
«И я подумал, что это крутой язык БЛЯТЬ» 😂😂😂 АХАХАХ КРУТО))) у вас хорошо получается, есть акцент, его можно проработать и тогда будет шикарный русский без акцента. однако, может вы захотите быть с акцентом - в этом ничего нет страшного
Cada vez que miro este tipo de videos me doy cuenta que, salvo algunas excepciones, son una estafa. Ni en pedo habla los idiomas que dice hablar. Tener un nivel a2 o b1 no cuenta...
Hallo ik ben Nederlands, ik wil even zeggen dat jouw Nederlands fantastisch is, echt vloeiend!👍 Zijn er nog talen die je verder nog wil leren in de toekomst? Ik wil ook een polygot worden!
I love the fact that you speak Igbo, but you need to improve especially on your accent. Some words have up to 4 meanings depending on the accent you used. Keep it up!!! You're really trying
Hallo Ikenna, ik moet zeggen dat ik mis toch Nederlands bij Fluyo, maar ik begrijp ook dat je moet ergens beginnen, toch? Nederlands is de derde taal dat ik leert, maar ook mijn lievelingstaal. Ik ben veel keer in UT geweest. Mijn Nederlands is nog niet zo goed als ik wil maar ik begint wel wat Hiragana te leren. Op deze video lijkt me dat je gezondheid beter is, en dat wens ik je altijd! Allerbeste!
It's so funny because I have to pre-program my brain too when I go to speak one of the languages I study. 😂 And it's even tricker when switching because my brain still wants to use the last one I spoke in. 🙃 Or while I'm speaking one I have to concentrate because the other 2 try to jump in. 😫 ランゲージゴールズ！😂 毎回Ikennaさんの動画を見るとモチベーションがあって頑張りたくなります。Espero que logres y realices todo de tus sueños hermano. Estoy tan orgullosa de ti y estoy super emocionada ver tu aplicación. 😄 我的中文不好，但我非常喜欢学中文 。加油 ! Also: 甄嬛传 ("Empresses in the Palace") was that SHOW my guy! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Даааа лучше чем люди был один из более вещей что заставил меня хотеть изучать русский. Блин...мне надо ещё раз учусь. Я даже не посмотрел телевизор по русски в... Шесть месяцев. Вау. Это грустно. Болшое спасибо за инспирация, Айкенна! Ты причина я хотел узнать второй языке. Я думаю fluyo будет очень прекрасно)))
I'm so excited for this app and to see what all you have in store for us. You have came so far! Great videos! Also, I wanted to add that your chinese is very good! All the languages that you speak sounds great. I am mostly excited to learn chinese and russian from Fluyo 😁 It would be so cool to see you partnering up with Xiaomanyc or Ryan Hale someday, they're great😂
Omg I want to sing all the C Drama soundtracks especially Handsome Siblings, Omg there are SO many good historical dramas out now! Thank you Ikenna for an inspiring video
