    He actually nailed some Greek does sound like that to me. Also confirms that to many foreigners Portuguese sounds Slavic which was what it sounded to me.

    His African dialect impression sounded Hebrew though. Also the Spanish and Mexican accent were terrible and didn't sounded at all like Castilian

    Yea, but in that video she is speaking the actual languages on some of them at least, she just not trying to impersonate how they sound phonetically to someone who is clueless but she did a good job on some hahaha. Her East Asian is priceless though
