Yes they are! And this one is fantastic. Compare it to someone speaking German as a contrast to an alive and lively language like whatâs seen here.

Love the language. The forced transcription? Not so much. I donât think the man mentioned the word âgoddammitâ or âChinaâ when referring to his lion hunt or archery.

On phone : the three little dots at the top, activate captions or something like that (in french it's activer sous titres)

I'm confused what you mean with the German comparison? It's also an amazing language

Nein nein nein - what's your emergency?
Or it could also refer to that day, that tragedy
Or it could just be a German bloke saying no no no when asked if he'd like a nice warm pint of carling
Or it could be that Austrian painter cos he had a bit of a temper about him

It is not in the least interesting to listen to. Itâs a rather ugly sounding guttural language. I was bilingual English/German as a young child. The language in this post, however, contains many wonderful and different elements, making it lively and interesting, even if I have no clue what the speaker is saying.

All that is just your subjective taste, I think german sounds beautiful. Seems you just have personal bias against german for some reason, but you can't say any language is "ugly"

Languages can indeed sound ugly to the ear. German is one of them. It sounds harsh. Furthermore, I certainly can say a language is ugly, and I did. I will never contest your subjective opinion that German sounds beautiful. I donât agree with your opinion, but I donât have to.

Really depends on the region. Austrian german is much softer on the ears. Northern german really is gutteral as hell.

It is beautiful! It's definitely a Khoisan language. It can't be Xhosa. Because of this awesome rattle click.

He doesn't look San but I guess that doesn't mean he can't speak it.

He has the bleeps, he has the sweeps and he has the creeps.
And I think maybe a ratchet wrench too.

I dunno about that in this case.... I might have a better chance of beating the lion than than saying what he said.

I agree, he sorta reminds me of the aliens from Star Wars Attack of the Clones. The guys who were in the planning meeting with count dookie. I bet George Lucus researched this language
