    Born and raised in Nashville. Tennessee is not all the same. It’s wild. North of Nashville sounds very Kentucky. South of Nashville sounds very Alabama. East TN is what your examples were and the “sh” thing I thought was unique to Dolly because I don’t hear that anywhere else personally.

    After watching one of your other videos on English dialects, I feel far more comfortable listening to these. I'm from the Western United States, so I obviously speak a very different dialect than those featured here, but being able to understand these makes me feel very American. Great video!

    If you master Italian, it’s only the Tuscan dialect! You will never master all dialects so therefore, even the regional locals that speak different dialects have a hard time understanding different regions!

    Me alegra saber que hay tanta gente interesada en aprender Español. Solo puntualizar algo a Olly; en Andalucía, a parte del "seseo" existe el "ceceo" que es pronunciar las "s" como "c". Aún así he de decir que no todos seseamos o ceceamos, yo soy andaluza y no hago ninguna de las dos....las "s" del final sí que me las como o las pronuncio como "h" aspirada. Un saludo a todos y mucho ánimo a todos los que estais aprendiendo el español!!.

    Hey Olly, I’ve just started to learn Czech, got a couple phrases memorized and the usual like hello, bye, good My girlfriend is Czech and speaks Czech, same as her brother and parents, and I find it hard to sit and study with textbook cause it’s just boring. I enjoy speaking to them in Czech and learning new phrases through them or translate and using them I also haven’t listened to any podcasts or anything as of yet but I’ve heard they are a good way of learning to understand sentances How would you go about learning Czech if you was in my situation?

    A lot of southerners don’t really tell a difference in the accents, it’s the expressions, but there are big differences. South Louisiana obvious. I’m in North Louisiana and we sound similar to Mississippi and Texas. As you go further south they change. Shreveport is very Texas like, Natchitoches and Alexandria sound a little different, Lafayette and Acadiana sound completely different, Baton Rouge sounds like a combo of both for some reason, and New Orleans has an East Coast feel with a southern drawl. Love the different cultures that make up our state.

    Todos tus cronogramas parecen ser bastante correctos, pero tu explicación sobre los detalles más finos es casi toda incorrecta y proviene de especulaciones más que de hechos ampliamente aceptados. Update: Hice este comentario a la mitad del video y ahora estoy a 3/4 del camino y las inexactitudes y los comentarios especulativos siguen acumulándose unos a otros con más frecuencia. Parece que solo acabas de leer una vez un libro sobre el tema.

    I do not believe in hours thing to learn a language. I think depends on people. I have seen english speakers struggle to learn french or another language on the list but they ended up learning an African language, east european or asian language within 2 years. So think it depends on people

    Funny story: I am from Belgium and moved to Bulgaria, I’ve literally been thrown in a bear cave because after 4 and a half years I still don’t speak the language, the alphabet was so easy and just took a few days but not a lot of Bulgarians speak English and not a lot of other foreigners here speak Bulgarian😂

    bueno, siendo nativo de español no es tan complicado las conjugaciones bueno nuestro examen de gramatica duro 2 horas de eso de hacer las conjugaciones de cada infinitivo (-ar, -er, -ir) en los 3 modos (indicativo, subjuntivo e imperativo) y asu ves de sus tiempos (10, 6,1), bueno pero eso ni fue lo complicado lo complicado paso con las partes que no se conjugan las "Conjunciones", sin duda fue un reto posicionarlas y exactamente diferenciarlas bien proque se parecen un poco y sus nombres la mayoria comienza con (co)
