MrBlooBloom [#3]?spanish is very different from portuguese tho
Not as much as English is tho
Spanish is way close to BR Portuguese than English is
H3ENnZ [#5]whats his ethnicity (ik hes american)
Maybe his mom is spanish or sum idk
or he was just rly in school in it, thats basically how i learned english
MrBlooBloom [#3]?spanish is very different from portuguese tho
if you understand spanish you’ll be able to understand portuguese well enough to comm in val
Huitzilopochtli [#6]or he was just rly in school in it, thats basically how i learned english
im not american so idrk how the american school system works but yea that could be a possibility
flnnss [#9]he's also learning korean from what I remember him saying on stream
verno to communicate in korean with aspas lol
shrike- [#7]if you understand spanish you’ll be able to understand portuguese well enough to comm in val
yeah you're able to more or less understand what portuguese are saying if given enough time, but in high pressure situation, when 4 portuguese players are comming really quickly, it'll be almost impossible to understand without having learnt proper portuguese beforehand. And talking portuguese is obviously not even imaginable within (at least) the next few weeks
sideshowsbaldhead [#2]he didn’t talk on nrg because english is his second language i understand it now
I fucking knew it
flnnss [#9]he's also learning korean from what I remember him saying on stream
His ingame language settings are in Korean aswell.
H3ENnZ [#8]im not american so idrk how the american school system works but yea that could be a possibility
also his ethnicity looks more like european (like dutch or german) for example his last name is Maust and that sounds very germanic imo, ig hes very good in languages cause hes also learning korean atm

No, it's not, Argentine and Chilean players play communicating on the brazilian server calmly, everyone understands each other.
fiv5Mmmmm [#18]No, it's not, Argentine and Chilean players play communicating on the brazilian server calmly, everyone understands each other.
they are used to it tho, it's clearly not the same
H3ENnZ [#8]im not american so idrk how the american school system works but yea that could be a possibility
most high schools make you take a foreign language class and almost always offer spanish, altho he mustve rlly gotten into it bc the classes tend to be not the best
Huitzilopochtli [#6]or he was just rly in school in it, thats basically how i learned english
yeah in texas where I live high schoolers who take spanish all 4 years of high school and 1 year in middle school become fluent once they graduate or can at least hold basic conversations if they BSed all their tests and stuff. verno prolly did the same too.
EseemedRes1180 [#23]As someone who learnt foreign languages in school is that really enough to say that you are fluent?
if frod confirmed in the interview that verno is fluent, then he atleast must be advanced spanish
