he sounds like he can speak 7 languages - but he's faking it

from his comments:

"Here's the fake dialogue that I wrote for each language. Any similarities to real words are purely coincidental:

Chinese:
Wo jiao piang xie? Da tian jiang ger pang ma! Xie ming ma chen ge la. Ne fan de shun weng she.

French:
La maricot de la francheuse est la botonnaisse et la botteneuse. Tot pa plattannie? To pa plattonisme. Hein? Noreune les oides terrianal.

Italian
Della ma groppoforma di papaligia. E fangelli ma trima, costo mosso: agalla mosto. Pi trima, pa trima.

Russian:
Yuvesh boytnik, graznik -- bohpamoshet badnya. Zet yon a yevleskou groynik. Lepni zet bevchenkski.

Spanish:
Los jungames pala muenos. Copa del jumos pi zampistas: pi querames, pi pleyames, pey gustarañes. !Pi taballyama, pi codo¡

German
Das grumfph ist peine keirschminte, peine greutzenschtepp. Greutzenschtepp ist peine schweirmarke.

Japanese
Gore no ho kakkamatsu, gun makahashimu jo. Kotero unitasu hanashi ma? Kaitu moroka. Hun."

Why does your Spanish sound like Pig Latin?! I don't get it. I speak Spanish and I don't understand why you have so many 'pi's in there? There just seems to be so many (5 times!), in what seems to be the time span of only ONE SENTENCE.

This guy is gifted. He has a great ear for language sounds, and he can also accurately produce the sounds, along with the style. They all sounded authentic to me, even the French and German, which I speak. All except the Chinese, which sucked except for the sounds themselves. I thought the Japanese speaking style was the best, though the words themselves weren't quite right.

I'm really keen to hear how English sounds to people from different countries, sorta like how we used to go, "Ching chong ching chong chong" to sound like we're speaking Chinese in grade 3.

hehehe of course the German sounds weird. but i think he quite got the stuff non-Germans think of first. all the rolling "rrrrr" and the quite 'hard' pronounciation. he uses a lot of our beloved t, k, p which make German sound really un-soft (i miss the words..)

But he just couldn´t get the "sch", but in my experience that´s the hardest thing for english speaking people. just like many Germans have problems with the "th" in english.

Speaking a bit french myself i think his french pronounciation is quite good too.

Yea I gotta say I've often wondered what english sounds like to non-english speakers. I mean every language clearly has a flow and a certain tone to it. I'd love to hear what english sounds like from someone who's never spoke it.
