Let's be honest. This guy has a brain like a sponge and learns new languages for fun. Incredible.

[AuDHD]

I love to see the joy on people's faces when they hear him speaking their language. It's touching on a level that's hard to describe.

[extidsm]

Imagine being a fan and meeting him in person only to find out he is learning your language now. So cool

[TheRisky]

Ghanans and Nigerians are seriously the best people in the world. One of my favorite professors was from Ghana. Always smiling and it's this contagious smile.

[thesecondislander]

The ladies are so funny, they are testing his Twi and are so fascinated every time he pulls out a new phrase haha

[minta_y_dn]

As a Ghanaian-American, this is great to hear you learning my native tonight. Another inspiration for me to improve my Twi speech

[michaelmann]

I'm sure you already realize this, but it probably means SO MUCH to the people you are encountering to have an American speak their language with them. I wish I had the ability to pick up other languages so easily. I recall when I went to Greece, I made a conscious effort to learn how to say "Thank You" in Greek, and I used it when I stopped at a roadside market. The woman at the register to whom I said it BEAMED with joy. It's incredible how something like that can help make connections. What you are doing is VERY COOL.

[MacDoesIt]

I did a term paper and presentation on the Akan language, primarily Twi dialect, and it's history for my African Studies class a few years ago and I wish I had this video to show at the end haha.

[nerdette]

Her face LIT UP when she heard you! I love seeing their expressions when they realize you speak their language

[chargemania]

This man is single-handedly bringing every culture together. Props.

[AngelaKSellsHomes]

You make me want to learn another language. The smiles on people's faces when you speak their language transcends this material world.

[emmanuellaasare]

As a British-Ghanaian, who also speaks twi, this was so nice to watch. It is really amazing! You’ve only learnt twi for a month and you are able to have full on conversations with Ghanaians. I’m impressed!

[bronzergoth]

it is SO cute the way the lady in the patterned dress just starts giggling at a point. it must be surreal to see you speaking Twi

[Sanguicat]

This dude can get conversational in a language in like a month, I've been learning a language for several years and still am not confident to speek it. Massive respect, brother

[NayatSarı]

I love it when they say “you have to go to Ghana!” The ladies are so fascinated by this, want him to meet Ghana with his language skills, enjoy the place and shock even more people from Ghana with his talent.😂 I think everyone would be happy if a foreigner learns your languages and speaks with you. 😊 I still get a congratulations for my Flemish from the Belgians even I’m already living more than 20 years in Belgium.😅 Knowing more languages connects people, that’s for sure. ❤

[Ridingrules]

If you travel much, you'll find friendly people everywhere you go, but Ghanaian people are some of the nicest I've been around. Their culture is very friendly and welcoming.

[CaseyHardman]

I don't think I've ever watched one of these and NOT smiled the entire time, and I've watched a lot of them! haha Bringing the world together one video at a time, brotha!

[michaelheliotis]

4:29 If a Ghanaian woman says "I'm happy with you", that's high praise right there. She basically wants to adopt you! 😂
6:30 Haha! This is more like what I'm used to. "Oh, you learnt my rare native tongue? That might impress the obroni lady, but I'm way more interested in how you want your food." 😂😂😂
7:25 And there's a typical Ghanaian chale, who loves everyone and makes you feel like a superhero for just being you. ❤️

[Nathan-shzg]

the "OHHHH" at 5:05 the absolute joy in their voices omg. keep it up xiaoma!!

[sonny]

“You should get yourself a Ghanaian wife!”

Lol that was really sweet
