I'm just here to say that Estonian isn't a Slavic language (it's not even Indo-European, but Finno-Ugric like Finnish), so it definitely wouldn't sound anything like what the Ukrainian lady was speaking.

I actually got the Ethiopian guy right, and I know they did another video where I was shocked to find myself correctly recognizing Somali. I live in Minnesota in the US and there’s a huge population of refugees and immigrants from that area of the world, mainly Somalian followed by Ethiopian, but I also have met people from countries like Eritrea and Malawi. And lots of Nigerians, from the other side of the continent 😊 I also love that I recognize Mandarin and Brazilian Portuguese whenever I hear it due to exposure. It’s so fun for some reason!

The first one is definitely Portuguese. I learned Portuguese for a few years because we went on holiday there. I found that whilst it was a Romance language the accent, at least in the Algarve sounds a little Slav. Regarding Estonian, like Finnish and Hungarian it’s in the Finno-Ugric language group.

I work at an aerospace manufacturing company and largely since it's beginning has employed SE Asians and East Europeans. To this day I am friends with people from many nationalities and most speak 2 or 3 languages. One speaks English, German, Russian and her native Bosnian.

Great video woman of culture have a God blessed day 🍻 👋 !
And no we don't understand native American language .

The Flemish was interesting, as her accent was definitely native Flemish, but her grammar was off just enough here and there that I suspect she hasn't really spoken it in years.

[DzzO]

The first one is my native language. She was complaining about a bad day with a lot of curse words. It was kind of jaring listening to it right out of the bat

[josephpayton]

The only ones I missed were Amharic and Shanghainese. I have had some limited exposure to sll the others.

[johnva]

Good to hear Shanghainese in this video.
