I find the use of that flat design offensive to the UK - where English comes from. It should be more geared towards Britain, as that’s where English comes from.

Zimbabwe, definitely.

2:02 The Turkic presence in Crimea has nothing to do with the 13th-century Mongol invasion. Crimean Tatar is a Kypchak-Cuman language most closely related to Kumyk and Karachay-Balkar. Crimean "Tatars" were descended from Cumans and Pechenegs (both are Turkic) that had inhabited Ukraine since the 10th century and the local Sarmatian-Alan (Iranic) and Goth (Germanic) tribes of Crimea. The actual, real Tatars of Mongolia were Para-Mongolic, not Turkic. Russians erroneously referred to both the Mongols and the Turkic subjects of the Golden Horde ruled by the Mongols as "Tatars". Volga Tatars aren't really Tatar/Mongol either. They're a mixture of Kypchak settlers (Turkic) and linguistically Kypchakized Volga Bulgars (also Turkic) that had aldready got Volga Finnic admixture themselves. Russians used to refer to Khakass people as Abakan Tatars even though they were descended from the Yenisei Kyrgyz and had no relation to Tatars. The 19th & 20th century Russian sources even refer to the Non-Kypchak, Oghuz Turkic speaking inhabitants of Azerbaijan, Georgia, Armenia and Turkey's Ardahan, Iğdır, Kars provinces as Tatars (Caucasian Tatars or Transcaucasian Tatars), probably because Russians associated them with the Ilkhanate Mongols that ruled Iran, the South Caucasus and eastern & central Turkey for centuries.

“Donald McRonald” it’s funny because nowadays people are more familiar with Ronald McDonald

For English it's either one or 3

The Afrikaans language... shouldn't be represented by the Afrikaans flag? More than just germans speak german, so let's not use the german flag for german.

Who is doing the commentary here? Robson Green ?

I know Afrikaans

I live in South Africa And don't move here it's really bad I mean really loadshedding, corruption ext

Some false information here: Iroquois (people of the longhouse) comes from the way we used to build our houses for mohawk tribes, it would usually be housed by a whole clan (bear,turtle,wolf ect and would have a longhouse per family)

RITE NOW WE DON'T WANT TO KNOW IF U ARE U ARE A G_STRING OR WHAT WE WANT FOOD

thanks for the info, am surprised the ANC flag is in there and the opposition let it slide

8:43 actually, there are more cantonese speakers who lives in mainland than hong kong. Also all Chinese languages uses the exact same writing, which is why the languages are often just considered dialects

Why do you provide false information to people? You are not Ukrainian phylologist. Ukrainian language is one of the oldest slavic languages. Most similiraties are with Belorusian, Polish, Slovak and even Bosnian. So called rushian language, which is moscovian in fact, appeared at the latest stage and s based on Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Turkish languages. Moscovians who claim to be "slavic" dont't understand any of the slavic languages and their language is very different from other slavics.

The Vikings attacked Norfolk in 865AD. In 869, Edmund, last king of the East Angles, was assassinated. But in Norfolk dialect today, , 'learn' retains its meaning of 'teach'. A child plays riskily and hurts himself... his father opines wryly to the mother, _"That serve 'em roit, dun't ut? That'll larn 'em'!",_ which means, _"It serves him right, doesn't it? That'll teach him!"._ 'That' often stands in for 'it', so "That do, dorn't ut?" means "It does, doesn't t?". The dialect is fading away, sadly. Southern accents, posh and common, increasingly dominate.

I moved away from Co Durham many years ago, thank you for reminding me of words like ket and bray . Other phrase were" Al dad yer lug" or "git" meaning great. I now live in Cornwall where it is only the older people who have have string accents and use dialect word. Id Geordie dying out as well?

What???😮 Sorry to NK, but Korean in SK and NK are truly different! But Korean language button will only translate to SK’s Korean. Plus, people in both sides really hate each other’s system. So, if your design is used, both sides will hate it. Although they were the same language, we only call SK’s language ‘Korean(한국어)’ and call NK’s language ‘Choseon language(조선어)’. Sorry to Hilbert, but please change that part.

The approach I would take: 1. Use the national flag of a language's country origin; for national languages in multilingual countries, or regional languages, use a regional flag whenever possible; 2. If the country of origin is split into multiple political entities, use the flag of the one with a higher population; 3. If a single language is shared by numerous countries, including its country of origin, and these countries are part of a multinational organisation (e.g. The Commonwealth, Arab League), use the flag of the organisation. Please let me know if any language would turn out to be absurdly represented based on these steps.

as a boer and as a south African it is not a hate crime its my freedom to keep the flag of my people and no person will tell me different I'm a boer and proudly so

But what about Howay? As I understand it, no-one knows where it comes from?

correction: Pretoria is a mostly Afrikaans city

as an american, i think the union jack is the most intuitive symbol to represent the english language

Number two squiddy English

@4:47, that's a painting of Qing dynasty's Qianlong emperor. So not Mongol, but a Manchu (or Jurchen to be accurate).

We're doing a Memphis-style approach to "Language Flags?" I love intellectuals and their Brave New World approach to life.

It's incredibly simple: if you have to assign a flag to a language, make it the language's country of origin. If the variety of language used is largely different from the kind used in the language's country of origin, then use the flag of whatever country is home to the dialect you're using.

Spanish? The second most natively spoken language?????

I can't believe what I've just watched......Jesus is the only way, grace and truth are found in him

I like how well you pronounce Afrikaans names and words

Welcome to fun with flags!! With Sheldon cooper

I never realised I was multilingual.. gan on there pet

1 footnote at the surrender the Confederate Irish said to the Union Irish the only reason you won is because you had more Irish than we did

Bobby Thompson went to take tea with the queen,she had a table full of delicious sweets and asked him,"would you care for some cake or a merangue?"and he replied,No, you are reet pet"

When Spanish is represented by Mexican flag is hilarious to me

During my teens to mid 20s a travelled all around Britain And main thing I noticed was girls in nightclubs , Scots, Geordie, Scouse,Welsh etc would hear my London accent and be all over me. Yet whenever to took mates from those places to clubs in London they never pulled , they would always moan that London girls hated their accents. Lol

Dude your pronounciation of the word onderzeeboot was insanely good, you really sounded dutch there for a moment Edit: when watching the rest of the video I noticed its basically all the dutch words you use, very well👍

Stupid question. Why did it change. It fucking represented all Apartheith in our past

Remember folks, we call our nation for Danmark with a beautiful A. Not denmark. We are Danes, not Denes, makes sense?

I'm from co Dunham

the spoken words were viking, the moaning sounds were french

You forget the plague... And the wars of attrition between Sassanids & Byzantines...

Bro really forgot about Spanish which would have been way more interesting than the others on the list as it has more countries with actual fluent speakers

One minor correction to the video. Dene does not mean wooded area but a vale, usually wooded - so in Newcastle there is a place called Jesmond Dene which is a small wooded vale, a house called Dene House would be a house at the bottom of a vale. It would be interesting to look at the different parts of Northumberland to see if there is more than one dialect - IME Geordie is very different to the north Northumbrian that I grew up with, but whether it is sufficiently different to count as a separate dialect is beyond me. The idea that some of the words come from Romani is very likely. There was a significant Romani community just over the border at Yetholm which was also the home of the King of Gypsies. As such there were probably a much greater prevalence of travelling gypsies in Northumberland and Newcastle than in other parts of the country and if you go into the 17th and 18th century reports there was clearly a lot of "issues" between the travelling gypsies and locals
