Switching between 13 languages mid-conversation | Inside my polyglot mind

  • Share this:

Hey guys! For those of you new to my channel, hi! I'm a polyglot YouTuber from South Africa and this is my wacky channel intro. My aim for this video was to see how fast I could switch between languages mid-sentence, mid-thought or mid-conversation. It might confuse you to follow all the switches, so I added flags to indicate the language at the top right, and I kept English subtitles for every spoken part.

I always try to be honest and transparent with you guys - so here's my real, unscripted, updated polyglot self introduction/channel intro!

Kinda nervous to upload this cause you guys can totally see how I haven't improved much since the previous polyglot video, har har.

I hope you enjoy it! I tried some new editing styles as well, so feel free to let me know what you think. If you have a polyglot intro video too, link it in the comments so I can check it out!

Languages spoken in order of fluency (not order of appearance)
English, Afrikaans, Korean, Japanese, French, Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Hungarian, Indonesian, Arabic, Hindi, Tagalog.
