As someone who doesn’t speak either of those languages, it’s hard for me to distinguish between accents that could be clues to nationality.

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. 🤣

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.

She said Ellada 20 times, brother, I wonder what country can it be? ROFL

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.

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.

Last girl was from Cyprus…. 😌

I'm Greek and i don't know a single person named Greece

* as a greek, this was actually really funny

I am from 🇬🇷😅

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 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.

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.

@@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?

She said she was more used to German and when the German spoke the language, she didn’t get it!

What a coincidence my name is Ellada too

The fact that Ellada is from Greece and her name is Greece. Ellada=Ελλάδα=Greece

As a construction worker, I can guess almost all countries langs. We have so much people around the world from this type of work. xD

I think the Greek girl is from Cyprus

the last girl is from Cyprus🇨🇾

The Greek girl is from Cyprus)

The producers threw a curveball with Greece. She has a very unique accent, from Cyprus. Most foreigners would not guess that she is speaking Greek. Fun fact: The Cypriot dialect is much closer to ancient Greek than regular Greek from Greece is. Same goes for Pontic Greek (now Turkey) and Griko/Greco (now Italy).

Man I wish I was on this show as a bit of a polyglot I would have been able to respond in German, Spanish, and Italian. Lol.

Always baffling to see Americans struggle to differ between the roman languages, while a European can do that easily.

Counties where people are so proud, full of pride, they have difficulties to integrate the other languages especially US. She said she is familiar with german she could recognize eins, zwei and drei ? But it is normal she tries at least

Nice to see you again

New members, cool! But please, can you do more countries? I have actually learned spanish "hola, me llamo ... " and if someone randomly speaks this to me, I would find this out within a second. Do more countries which haven't been explored yet or have participated in videos very little. Like Basque, Turkish, Irish, Icelandic, Slovenian, Hungarian, Albanian, Maltese, Belarussian, Russian, Ukrainian, Slovak, Czech, Bulgarian, Georgian or other non european nations such as Malaysian, Uzbek, Azerbaijani, Persian, Arab, Kazakh, Sri Lankan language (idk how it is called) and so on...

Good tries, Christina! You’d think she’d recognise Greek and I guess Italian as a lot of English comes from Greek as well as Latin… the rest are all common ones lol

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)

So now I know greek is going with the hard languages

Since your move over to Facebook, I was in 2 minds if I should watch this through there or here! Christina is definitely very good at guessing European languages! It’s great to see Micah again on World Friends, she comes up on many YT channels and the Italian girl looks familiar to me, maybe the video with Shannon comparing US and Italian style pizza? All participants did great!

I have a video idea! Maybe it could be like a Persian and an Indian person they could discuss words if they are similar because i have a persian friend and the words are pretty similar!

As a greek, γύρος and λούξ are the best!

I think the key part of your statement is "As a Norwegian". Of course you know the difference between northern European/Germanic languages. For an American whose interest is clearly in Asia, not Europe, it's not puzzling at all. Europeans can be so...Eurocentric.

The girl from Spain kinda looks like JENNA ORTEGA !

Americans literally hear Spanish since birth and learn it at school just to confuse it afterward with every other romance language 😂

she sounds a bit Cypriot , the Greek one

I gave myself half a point on the first one because I couldn't decide Italian vs. Portuguese, having not heard them spoken enough, but I narrowed it down to those two with confidence it was one or the other. Otherwise I identified all languages correctly, though it felt a little unfair that a North American was supposed to guess Belgium instead of Netherlands from a girl speaking Dutch by somehow knowing its regional accent.

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.

Yay Christina !! 😃
