Essa mulher fala sete linguas

Well, my dream is, one day, speaking five: Portuguese, Italian, English, French and Spanish.

As I can speak Portuguese and English and its pretty fine to understand Spanish, I have my dream half came true

HAHAHAHA!!! Too much funny! She's a nice comedian, indeed.

I only speak, badly, two languages, portuguese and english, and I'm looking forward to learning spanish these next years while I don't finish my college. It won't be that easy for me, I just have one small and lazy brain, lol! But I'm brazilian and don't give it up at all!!!

Prefiro falar só três mesmo, do que falar as 7 do jeito que ela fala

So funny!
lol



I'm still really speaking only one language, and try to speak English.



lol

I totally agree with Flavia.lm, lol!

It´s a hilarious video!

Perhaps, it´s better to know English very well instead of trying to know other languages together, because, obviously, the English language you can use all over the world, while other languages you can not.

Ainda chego lá... faltam tres para alcança-la... heheheh muito bom o video.

I don't think you can use mandarim all over the world, only in China, but english is different, because it's becoming more popular every day, like musics, I don't hear any mandarim music on the radio, but that is my opnion, I'm not saying you are wrong.

It depends on which side of the world you're talking about.
In China alone, there's more than 1.5 billion fluent mandarin speakers. (1 from 5 people can speak fluently mandarin)
Also, wherever you go in Asia, from traffic signs to front desks,you can freely read chinese characters/also talk with staffs in the "universal language".
In Japan again, half of my scholarship classmates were chinese.

Ok, let's talk about here,the Occident.
I use so much more mandarin on my daily-basis than english, and that's not because I live in a "Chinatown" here in São Paulo.
Simply wherever you go to shop, eat, there will be a lot of chinese.
Liberdade,25 de Março,Brás..from gadgets to clothes,kitchen tools,whatever you want to get a discount.
Indeed it's a very useful language when you're going down to business.
Moreover,in today's world,any big and cosmopolitan city you visit, there's a Chinatown.
You know, many americans today learns chinese,the language of the future.
Below, some links to help illustrating my speech.
Thank you.

Wow, after that I have to admit, I shouldn't underestimate the mandarin, but where I live in porto alegre, I don't see much of chinese culture other than kung fu or chinese food, but you are right, there is a lot of content on the internet talking about the nation of the future, but I find learning english more accessible and easy for me here in porto alegre, maybe some time in the future I'll take some mandarin classes.

Hi Jean, I knew what you meant.
For sure, here in the West, english is way more accessible, spread and "pop", just look what´s on your cable tv right now..
I´ve been studying japanese for almost a decade, since I was 15yo, and actually it took me several years until I realize that mandarin, with its billion native speakers could be as useful language as the First World Japan´s and its 127 millions.
Already knowing how to properly write ideograms (the most difficult part for most of us,100% westerners),I´ve found learning chinese even easier than english.
After realize you can use mandarin almost every country you go (even around Europe), I ways feel relieved when I meet a chinese speaker in a strange country.
Once in Charles de Gaulle Airport, without understanding a world of a french front desk´s english, a chinese businessman saved my life.
Wow, are you gonna take classes? Go on!
I can give you a first step = (Jean)

cool
get a free class, but i don't get what that symbol means...

It means "Jean".
