Just out of curiosity
local indonesian languages are a lot more like their own languages than anything. In fact Malaysian is more similar to Indonesian than most "dialects".
You would not understand anything said by the people on a different island because theyre virtually speaking a different language with different slang and altered grammatical structure
5 languages
Romanian, English - fluent
Spanish, Italian, French - conversational (but somewhat limited due to low usage lately, even though they're easy to understand for me)
Location: Romanian living in US
Later Edit: Since I moved to LA, I hoped I was going to refresh my Spanish more, but the Spanglish is too strong lol
spanish (i even understand slangs from different countries which sounds like easy but thrust me slangs from spanish speaking countries differ a lot from each other)
english
trying to learn portuguese and japanese but at least i understand many sentences and many words tbh. i also watch br posts on portuguese here and br ranked and its kinda easy to understand what people saying because portuguese is similar to spanish (languages from latin)
can partially understand listening to it(no depth in vocab) are Korean and Japanese thanks to anime and k-drama and Punjabi(chandigarh- my university which i am studying in)
