I don´t think it s even possible :lol:

 

btw this guy is from my city :d and he speak 19 languages, also portuguese, you can say me if his pronounciation is fine, also same question for the serbian, italian, spanish etc users :lol:

 

 

Yeah, just like I thought, this is BRAZILIAN Portuguese :p  :BRA

(there are much more brazilian portuguese speakers so it's normal that at many places, when I see things in Portuguese, they are in Brazilian Portuguese :))


Portuguese (from Portugal) is quite different in accent, and I believe it's a bit harder for foreigners than the Brazilian version.

 

In any case, I think his Brazilian Portuguese was quite good! :d

As usual, people trying to learn lots of languages for some reason never try learning danish or swedish :(

That's what I thought when I heard it, maybe that's why I liked his Portuguese :p (I very much prefer the Brazilian Portuguese...no offense :d )

Hahaha, it's ok, I would have guessed that from your profile avatar :p  Besides, I admit the Brazilian Portuguese is easier to understand (we say that they speak with "open mouth", while we here speak with "closed mouth") so maybe that makes it more likeable for foreigners :) 

I think the only people I met who prefered the "original" Portuguese were the ones that had been here visiting the country :d

Back in 2009 when I was travelling to Brazil, I went from Brussels to Lisbon to Brasilia and I remember thinking "you're talking weird" when one of the airport people in Lisbon said "bom dia" in the Portuguese way instead of the Brazilian way :d

His portuguese is almost perfect :yikes:

 

And that's because he don't consider as one of his best languages. Man, I wish I could speak fluently 3 or 4 languages, let alone 19.

 

Interesting enough, he says in the video he talks with a friend in Guinea Bissau, so maybe he got some influences from him :mumble:

My goodness.. His Mandarin Chinese is absolutely better than me (which is a shame since I'm from Chinese descent)

 

And even he speaks Taiwanese! Not much "x speaks y language" videos features Taiwanese, it's funny to hear a language that I use quite often with my family members being spoken by a foreigner. And somehow he has the "middle-aged man speaking style" in certain parts of his speech :lol:

He said. "Počeo sam da je ćitam kada sam stigao kuci." He is great :d:yes

 

and word takođe :d (7:02 in video). He said tako(?)e. After a long time I heard this non-existent letter ( I can't write because I don't know how to write) :lol::clap:

 

 

But you are right for č and ć, not only for Croatians. In other countries also people have "problem" with this.

    • In cross-country there were never mixups like that. And trust me, the cross-country calendar/results page has been one of my most visited pages on all the internet for a few years now, for obvious reasons

    • More AI visualizations of the venues.         
    • I can count for you, but what I will say is that I don't think it was a lot. 
    • Off-topic, when I lived in Beijing there was a park across the street that had all the 2022 pictograms along its fence on the street. They were big and lit up at night. It was really cool, especially because the 2022 pictograms were very unique and creative. 
    • They're not very creative or unique to Italy/Milano, but like others have said, at least they're understandable unlike Paris. These are very generic, though. 
    • National law and sport rules are completely different. Like, there's a law in Canada that if you punch someone in the face you will get charged with battery. But if you're playing hockey and do it, you'll only get 5 minutes in a penalty box. Japan only recognizes gender at birth and this was not an issue in 2020(1).    Any law Trump and the Republicans pass can only apply to governmental organizations, i.e. school competitions. Private sport events, like the NHL, MLB and the Olympics, can still decided who can and cannot participate in what events. If the NHL wants a female goaltender to play, they can do that tomorrow if they want. If the IOC decides Semenya can participate in the female category, then that's their right as a private entity. I'm sure Hitler wasn't happy that Jews, black people and other groups were allowed to participate in 1936, either.    Of course, I've been saying for a long time they should do away with "male" and "female" categories and just have "Over/Under X amount of testosterone" categories. 
    • Yeah, if they have all their FTA* live streams on one page, announced in advance, life will be easier. Before you had to sub to about 7 or 8 YT channels to.know what was on every week.   But the results/events Page is also easier, because previously they used to mix up World Cup & say, Balkan Cup events together.
    • UWW's new rules for change of nationality   this doesn't look great for likes of Bahrain, Albania, Bulgaria, Slovakia, Serbia and few more.    still it won't make a huge huge impact for the next Olympic cycle because each NOC still can use 2 mercenaries per style in each tournament but after 2028 it will be reduced to just 1.    some of those countries already have 3 or 4 (or more) Russian mercenaries per style. from now on they have to pick 2 of them for each tournament. I assumed the new rule applies to previous mercenaries too . https://cdn.uww.org/2024-11/change_of_nationality_regulation_eng_oct2024_final.pdf also you can't wrestle for another country without a passport. (UWW allowed that for some years) current non-national wrestlers can continue like that until the end of 2026 though.   it could be better but in general I'm OK with new rules. good job by UWW. 
    • Roki Sasaki has been posted for MLB transfer. Dodgers vs everyone else Part 175?
