There's nothing creepty about it. He's just having casual conversations and not asking for numbers, picking up, or harrasing people.Adali wrote:This guy is such a creep, his interaction with the black guy was hella funny, how he was trying to figure out where he was from, guessing ghana, then speaking french with him when he said he is from Benin, he has alot of knowledge about different cultures and nations, seems like a cool guy. but definitely creepy.
Swedish/Danish/Norwegian are the same language essentially. Only for political reasons classified as different languages.Adali wrote:I actually speak 3 languages on a native level, Somali, English and Danish ! I can also understand Norwegian and Swedish easily. I learned Arabic, Spanish and German in school from a early age, and my level of German is definitely much better than his Somali.
I did this without being a creep haha.
Too bad you not cadaan...then we will be impressed. A somali can speak 5 languages we brush it off.....but a white guy says couple words in Somali and we get excited.Adali wrote:I actually speak 3 languages on a native level, Somali, English and Danish !

It's universal, people get happy that a foreigner took his time to learn our mother tongue.Prlnce wrote:Too bad you not cadaan...then we will be impressed.

The worst languages I have ever heard are Vietnamese, Thai, Malaysian, Indonesian. It's sounds like people speaking Chinese but the video is buffering "Ara' Ba' rabap' chin' cho'c chan'"Turbulence wrote:I can't believe he speaks Vietnamese. That is one difficult language to learn. It sounds really bad too. When some of my neighbors are arguing it sounds like cats in heat.
Toddlers who have developmental delay are supposed to be encouraged. So i'm not surprised elders made a big deal about you speaking your own mother tongue.TheMightyNomad wrote:It's universal, people get happy that a foreigner took his time to learn our mother tongue.Prlnce wrote:Too bad you not cadaan...then we will be impressed.

I get the same reaction from elders as a kid that I can speak much better somali than many of my peers my age
The guy in the video is African American btw. Soo it's major fail on your part
What a silly comparison. Adali technically only speaks 4 languages ('Norse', English, Somali, German). The first two are because of his environment (presumably he lives in Scandinavia), the other is his home language, and only the last one he probably put in an effort. That is in no way as impressive as a native born American who picked up Mandarin, French, Vietnamese, Somali, Spanish, Japanese etc.Prlnce wrote:Too bad you not cadaan...then we will be impressed.
