actually kinda impressive

some people claimed that he was a fake 'Polyglot'

an Italy u-tube guy who focuses on things on languages, video games, medieval weapons, history books and armor. He studied in England and majored in Japanese so his Japanese is also supposed to be pretty good

It seems he cant speak Cantonese at all, but Cantonese is not easy, like Arabic the Cantonese language is supposed to be one of the most difficult languages even worse than Mandarin Chinese...his pronunciation in Japanese sounded kinda bad but then again he says everything in an Italian accent

from what I hear his Japanese is also impressive

Reading Comments In Chinese (Characters) - Can the Metatron Do it?

He speaks French, shared a house with Chinese so maybe got his Asian language to a higher level by this shared house method
its actually quiet easy for for an Italian to learn French comapred to Japanese, a French text will be a Romance language descended from the Vulgar Latin of the Roman Empire.

AI is going to stop real quick soon if the Corps don't start their own electric grid off of ours and pay for their own electricity bills.

Everybody is getting killed on their electric bills now because of them and because of the EV car experiment failure.

We ain't paying for it anymore. Figure it out before you all go out of business.
