Ever since seeing that Finnish girl's amazing “What languages sound like to foreigners“ video way back in 2014 (), I've wanted to make a similar fake languages video -- I've been doing these since I was a kid. And here it is, finally! We all need a bit of humor every so often -- back to your regularly scheduled language learning programming soon! “Languages“ I speak in this video include UK English, US English, Italian, Spanish, German, French, Russian, Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, South Korean, North Korean, Hindi, Arabic, and Hebrew. Let me know which is your favorite! By the way, in case it wasn't clear, this is a comedy video -- I am not now and have never been an employee of the CIA, and the only languages in this video I can legitimately claim to be able to speak are English, Mandarin, and (very basic!) Cantonese. Thanks for visiting Ari in Beijing! I've honed my Mandarin Chinese to near native-level fluency through a variety of tips and tricks that I share with you each week. So whether you're studying Mandarin, Cantonese, English, another language, or are simply interested in language in general, please SUBSCRIBE and stick around for a while!
