As a Dutch person, we're all half-fish and we communicate mostly underwater. But because soundwaves suck at travelling through water, we needed a sound strong enough to fix that. That's where the Dutch G comes in. But we're also half human, so we just drown every time we make that sound, so that's why it sounds like that. Also, Dutch isn't completely useless, you can always learn it to laugh at Flemish people for their accent.

"They were shocked that I spoke X language" (X = whatever the native language is) is a theme of some KZread polygots that just make me despise them, and quite frankly, not believe they can even speak the language beyond Duolingo level. In fact, I watched one such person do the placement test, and while passed, he was struggling and made a couple of mistakes. When you consider that Duolingo goes barely above CERF A2 level (maybe up to C1 in more popular languages like Spanish) and the test does only not cover the whole of the language course, it is clear to me that their language ability is less than "fluent", another word they often use. One such guy took a test in Spanish, which happens is a language I'm learning right now: I could understand most of the test and could guess 65% - 70% of the answers despite only having passsed the first checkpoint and having no prior knowledge of Spanish or any closely related language, shows how relatively easy the test was! (I've also watched native speakers of taking the test and still be recommended to study with Duo, only skipping the first checkpoints). I'm think it's great to be able to speak a foreign language even a beginner level - and much maligned Duolingo can get you there if you use it correctly - my friend is a proof of that and I would be very happy if I could understand Duo's podcasts. What annoys me are naysayers who pretend otherwise: bashing any X app (they all livr to hate Duolingo because it's actually a pretty good compared to many) and then go on promoting equally useless app they happen to like and often get revenue from as an influencer. THERE IS NO ONE APP that can teach you a language to a fluent level! Each has their strengths and shortcomings, including classroom learning, but you still have to work a lot outside the app/ class if you want to become fluent and even then, it takes a long time to achieve true fluency. (As you can see, I'm not there with my English despite using it every day at work and in private life.)
@marker52

@@oakstrong1 Definitely. If you're aiming for any sort of high level in any language, you should never rely on one source. 'Fluency' requires thousands of hours of being immersed in the language, whether it be watching native content, reading books, or interacting with natives. Apps such as duolingo or textbooks serve to bring you to a very basic level where it won't be as painful to start immersing in the language, and whether you continue or not after that is on you. At the end of the day, there is no one "method" that can get you to fluency. Anyone that sells people on the idea that you will be fluent you take [certain course] is being disingenuous.

Hi Language Simp! Your video on the top 10 most useless languages to learn is quite interesting! While I appreciate your unique perspective, I believe that language learning is subjective and varies based on individual interests, goals and circumstances. As a language learner myself, I've found that every language has value, whether it's for cultural enrichment, career opportunities or personal connections. While some languages may seem less practical in certain contexts, they still offer valuable insights into different cultures and ways of thinking. Ultimately, I believe there's no such thing as a useless language to learn. Every language opens doors to new experiences and perspectives. It's really well worth to respect the diversity of languages and appreciate their importance in our interconnected world. Thank you for opening this conversation!

About 100 years ago, they wanted to cancel the writing system but fail. Now I can say Vietnamese and Korean successfully decline the Han writing system. By the other hands, China main land and Japan modified their Hanzi/Kanji become simplified. Nowadays some people want to turn Chinese into phonetics alphabets, but it fail due to their culture.

@Abina Àine Well, I don't know if it will work for you, because I'm a native speaker so I can't really measure how much Portuguese you need to know to understand Spanish. What I do know is that people who are more educated on Portuguese (people with good grammar etc) tend to understand Spanish a lot better that common elderly people with lower levels os education. Both languages are super similar tho. I believe Spanish and Portuguese are closer to each other than Standard German and most dialects of Swiss German for example. My advice is: learn whatever you really want to. If you're not interested in the language itself, the whole process will become unfeasible. But if you just want to raise your language count, or if you are interested in both of them, than Portuguese first

I know this video was made in jest but I swear six years ago, that was the exact same logic I used when I chose to seriously study languages again, I chose Portuguese over Spanish. LMAO!! I thought from a professional standpoint, Spanish would be useless because all of the professional Spanish speakers speak English and they will always have a leg up on me. Plus, Portuguese has more complex sounds and it has all of Spanish sounds so in a way I was picking up two languages, at least from a written and listening perspective. Speaking the language is a different story. I think I stand out more as a Portuguese speaker and here in South Florida, the language is far from useless. I enjoy Spanish too. I've taken Spanish classes all through high school and college. I've listened to some podcasts and read a couple of books in Spanish. I wouldn't say that I'm a strong Spanish speaker though. However, I can get around in Spanish and I speak it in restaurants.

The Portuguese language may have some sounds that are more complicated than Spanish, but Spanish has a much more extensive grammar than Portuguese. This makes it richer as a language. Furthermore, Spanish is spoken in 21 countries, while Portuguese is only spoken in 9. Lastly, it's worth noting that Spanish is increasingly spreading in the USA every day, not to mention that Puerto Rico is a completely Spanish-speaking state.

As a Dutch person, we're all half-fish and we communicate mostly underwater. But because soundwaves suck at travelling through water, we needed a sound strong enough to fix that. That's where the Dutch G comes in. But we're also half human, so we just drown every time we make that sound, so that's why it sounds like that. Also, Dutch isn't completely useless, you can always learn it to laugh at Flemish people for their accent.

"They were shocked that I spoke X language" (X = whatever the native language is) is a theme of some KZread polygots that just make me despise them, and quite frankly, not believe they can even speak the language beyond Duolingo level. In fact, I watched one such person do the placement test, and while passed, he was struggling and made a couple of mistakes. When you consider that Duolingo goes barely above CERF A2 level (maybe up to C1 in more popular languages like Spanish) and the test does only not cover the whole of the language course, it is clear to me that their language ability is less than "fluent", another word they often use. One such guy took a test in Spanish, which happens is a language I'm learning right now: I could understand most of the test and could guess 65% - 70% of the answers despite only having passsed the first checkpoint and having no prior knowledge of Spanish or any closely related language, shows how relatively easy the test was! (I've also watched native speakers of taking the test and still be recommended to study with Duo, only skipping the first checkpoints). I'm think it's great to be able to speak a foreign language even a beginner level - and much maligned Duolingo can get you there if you use it correctly - my friend is a proof of that and I would be very happy if I could understand Duo's podcasts. What annoys me are naysayers who pretend otherwise: bashing any X app (they all livr to hate Duolingo because it's actually a pretty good compared to many) and then go on promoting equally useless app they happen to like and often get revenue from as an influencer. THERE IS NO ONE APP that can teach you a language to a fluent level! Each has their strengths and shortcomings, including classroom learning, but you still have to work a lot outside the app/ class if you want to become fluent and even then, it takes a long time to achieve true fluency. (As you can see, I'm not there with my English despite using it every day at work and in private life.)

@@oakstrong1 Definitely. If you're aiming for any sort of high level in any language, you should never rely on one source. 'Fluency' requires thousands of hours of being immersed in the language, whether it be watching native content, reading books, or interacting with natives. Apps such as duolingo or textbooks serve to bring you to a very basic level where it won't be as painful to start immersing in the language, and whether you continue or not after that is on you. At the end of the day, there is no one "method" that can get you to fluency. Anyone that sells people on the idea that you will be fluent you take [certain course] is being disingenuous.

Hi Language Simp! Your video on the top 10 most useless languages to learn is quite interesting! While I appreciate your unique perspective, I believe that language learning is subjective and varies based on individual interests, goals and circumstances. As a language learner myself, I've found that every language has value, whether it's for cultural enrichment, career opportunities or personal connections. While some languages may seem less practical in certain contexts, they still offer valuable insights into different cultures and ways of thinking. Ultimately, I believe there's no such thing as a useless language to learn. Every language opens doors to new experiences and perspectives. It's really well worth to respect the diversity of languages and appreciate their importance in our interconnected world. Thank you for opening this conversation!
As a Chinese people, I can say the writing system is the most complicated and it affects Japanese writing system. Besides of that, grammar and vocabulary is easier than English. About 100 years ago, they wanted to cancel the writing system but fail. Now I can say Vietnamese and Korean successfully decline the Han writing system. By the other hands, China main land and Japan modified their Hanzi/Kanji become simplified. Nowadays some people want to turn Chinese into phonetics alphabets, but it fail due to their culture.

What I do know is that people who are more educated on Portuguese (people with good grammar etc) tend to understand Spanish a lot better that common elderly people with lower levels os education. Both languages are super similar tho. I believe Spanish and Portuguese are closer to each other than Standard German and most dialects of Swiss German for example. My advice is: learn whatever you really want to. If you're not interested in the language itself, the whole process will become unfeasible. But if you just want to raise your language count, or if you are interested in both of them, than Portuguese first

I know this video was made in jest but I swear six years ago, that was the exact same logic I used when I chose to seriously study languages again, I chose Portuguese over Spanish. LMAO!! I thought from a professional standpoint, Spanish would be useless because all of the professional Spanish speakers speak English and they will always have a leg up on me. Plus, Portuguese has more complex sounds and it has all of Spanish sounds so in a way I was picking up two languages, at least from a written and listening perspective. Speaking the language is a different story. I think I stand out more as a Portuguese speaker and here in South Florida, the language is far from useless. I enjoy Spanish too. I've taken Spanish classes all through high school and college. I've listened to some podcasts and read a couple of books in Spanish. I wouldn't say that I'm a strong Spanish speaker though.

The Portuguese language may have some sounds that are more complicated than Spanish, but Spanish has a much more extensive grammar than Portuguese. This makes it richer as a language. Furthermore, Spanish is spoken in 21 countries, while Portuguese is only spoken in 9. Lastly, it's worth noting that Spanish is increasingly spreading in the USA every day, not to mention that Puerto Rico is a completely Spanish-speaking state.

You should learn Swiss. It sounds like a different language in 4 regions, but it's all in your head. Some even say it is 4 distinct languages, but they have no idea. If you understand Swiss, you can converse with 3 quarters of the European population easily.

I am a language learning nerd. Started many, gave them up and learned none. Now I am relearning a language which I strangely enjoy very much. LATIN! Its usefulness or not is of no concern to me. It is an addiction similar to trying to solve a puzzle. I imagine many crossword enthousiasts would be able to relate to this.

But I can speak to the Brazilians in Spanish and they understand me most of the time. Also, learning Spanish for a profession, well unless you already have the job and then it requires you learn it later on, native speakers will take the job
