Languages Make No Sense: Double L. #french #english #spanish #language #why #wtf #funny #sketch

[mistachioXD]

French be like - "I paid for the whole exceptions book, and i will use the whole exceptions book!"

"I'm almost afraid to ask the question" 😅

“Was it something I said?“

I think it was everything you said. 😂

In Italian a double L makes the letter "intense" (aka. longer), and it's important because it might change the meaning of the word completely (ex. "Pala" = shovel; "Palla" = ball).
It works this way for every consonant, but we don't have double vowels (unless it's a very specific case).

[Tjalve]

"Why do I even give you letters?"
That is a very good question.

I could have sworn the punch line would be Mr. Welsh popping in, uninvited....

[MysteryMedia]

Don’t let this man near the Welsh languages, he’s not ready for what double l is here

[joelproko]

<ll> in Spanish is /ʎ/, which is it's own sound, typically realised as [ʎ] ("voiced palatal lateral approximant"). Yes, some dialects pronounce it as [j], [ʒ] or even [ʃ], but it's nonetheless separate.

[Sunrunner]

In German, double letters after a vowel shorten the pronounciation of the vowel. :)

[אוהבתורהומדע]

Italian and Finnish: Well, we have the same use

[flowmovementtherapy]

A former colleague: 'my last name is Breault. Pronounce it like 'bro' but just ignore all the vowels'

[jluai]

In Hungarian a double L is just that, a double L.
We welcome thee, Universal.

I find all these videos hilarious because they are so true to the point! Every single language has a number of absurd exceptions and native speakers don't even realize they are there. Bravo Loic for pointing them out!!! 😂

'Why do I even give you letters' 🤣

[carlosbm]

I speak the three languages and the pronunciation doesn't make sense, but when you think of them as separate languages, the pronunciation of words becomes clear

[maeyeshaagub]

French:"Was it something i said?"

Me:"Yes it was everything you said"

[travelwell]

Aww you should’ve brought Welsh in on this one 😂

[joshnasam]

I love your videos they make me laugh 😅 and force me to think about aspects of language that are often missed.😂

[emilyvillagomez]

Love when Spanish and French are in a video together!

[Violingirl]

Wait until Welsh joins the conversation 😂
