The East Frisian Low Saxon language, casually spoken | Wikitongues
East Frisian Low Saxon, or Oostfräisk, is spoken by 200,000 people in northwestern Germany. It is one of the Low German (or Low Saxon) languages, which together have up to 7 million native speakers.

More from Wikipedia: "East Frisian Low German or East Frisian Low Saxon is one of the Northern Low Saxon dialects, a West Low German dialect spoken in the East Frisian peninsula of northwestern Lower Saxony. It is used quite frequently in everyday speech there. About half of the East Frisian population in the coastal region uses the language. By the speakers it is often called Plat, or Ōstfräisk. A number of individuals, despite not being active speakers of Low Saxon, are able to understand it to some extent. However, both active and passive language skills are in a state of decrease. East Frisian Low Saxon is not to be confused with the Eastern Frisian language; the latter, spoken by about 2,000 individuals in the Saterland region, is a Frisian language, not Low German. There are several dialects in East Frisian Low Saxon. There are two main groups of dialects. The dialects in the east, called Harlinger Platt, are strongly influenced by Northern Low Saxon of Oldenburg. The western dialects are closer to the Low Saxon Language spoken in the Dutch province of Groningen, Gronings.East Frisian Low Saxon differs from Northern Low Saxon in several aspects, which are often linked to Frisian heritage. The language originally spoken in East Frisia and Groningen was Frisian, so the current Low Saxon dialects of East Frisia, as part of the Friso-Saxon dialects, build on a Frisian substrate which has led to a large amount of unique lexical, syntactic, and phonological items which differ from other Low Saxon variants. Some Old Frisian vocabulary is still in active speech today. East Frisian features frequent use of diminutives, as in the Dutch language, e.g. fautjes ‘little feet’, kluntje ‘lump of rock sugar’. In many cases, diminutives of names, especially female ones, have become names of their own. For example: Antje (from Anna), Trientje (from Trina = Katharina) etc. The dialects spoken in East Frisia are closely related to those spoken in the Dutch province of Groningen (Grunnegs, Grünnigs) and in Northern Drenthe (Noordenvelds). The biggest difference seems to be that of loanwords (from Dutch or German, resp.). The standard greeting is Moin (moi in Gronings), used 24 hours a day."

Hindko is dialect of Punjabi Language spoken in KPK
Sound like a mixture of Latin and German
I am Haitian, and i understand ❤
It sounds like someone mixed Turkish and Sinic languages (Viet, Chinese, Korean and Japanese), sounds pretty, I like it!
"Scots" is just corrupted English, it's not a real language.
I m algerian and as soon as I heared you voice and the first phrases I understood directly some words from your mother language even without any translate
I just heard some girls speaking this language on the street and they sound really interesting..
Not Iranian, it’s Kurdish.
Saraiki/Multani is Dialect of Lahnda Punjabi
God bless you! Love from Assam.
An Italian dialect, 100%
I had a boyfriend who spoke dialect at home with his family in Wustviller. I was there to learn French 😁
在这段视频中所提到的英语借用词以及本地词汇,除了「file」「outlet」「jack」「影印」以外,其他所有词汇均在广州广泛应用;而特别提出来这四个词汇,除了「outlet」以外,在广州亦不会造成理解困难,也就是说你这样讲我们都听得懂,只是我们平时不会这样讲。
Properly tamang language😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
It’s like watching thiruvalaiadal
This sounds so much like irish its wild
I noticed she used a lot of Spanish words, like futuro, pero, porque, pasage, plata, pobreza, eso sí, suerte, todo, bueno, hermano, idioma, amiga, etc.
Guys .... Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat! This sounds like Setswana! huh.
Thank you to the speaker for this sample. I didn't understand a word but was nice to hear you nevertheless.
Corsica sempre NOSTRA Diu salve Regina ❤❤
Amazing that I understood something like 80% of what the speaker said. I don't speak Hiligaynon but I speak it's sister language Cebuano. My only exposure to Hiligaynon is growing up with neighbors that speak it. They were the only Hiligaynon family in our street but because houses in subdivisions tend to be close to each other, we often hear them talk labi na kung maghayhay og labada. :)
Sounds like korean....or Mongolian:)
Speaking maltese and u got the Armenian alphabet behind u. Love it !❤
Being in Portugal, he must be António and not Antônio, as it is written in Brazil.

A really enlightening experience to hear this language for the first time. I imagine it helps if you already have a lisp. I was reminded in parts of this speech of Stanley Unwin. Enjoyed it very much.👍
Beaucoup de mots bien differents du français sont les mêmes qu'en gallo :)

Dejame contarte una historia. Cuando fui a España en el año 2000. Cuando llegué a Toledo, la ciudad estaba llena de gente, porque allí estaba el rey de España. Luego quise visitar la catedral católica, pero no pude. Entonces decidí buscar las ruinas de Sigoga, las cuales por suerte encontré y quedé muy conmovido por todo lo que allí vi. Fue como si hubiera encontrado mi pasado. Un saludo desde Brasil a todos nuestros hermanos Sefaradim.

I understand everything he just said. He sounds like my mother’s family. That is amazing he looks Blasian but speaks flawless Hakka! 👍👍💕❤️💞💖
That's not proper Veronese, but the sub-dialect which is spoken on the coast of lake Garda, which is more close to the Trentino dialect: in fact, in the video she says she is from Malcesine, a village on the lake.
Looks so much like polyglot Tim Doner, who also speaks Arabic.
Wow It is like Pashto language❤❤
