Hi everybody! I’m from Vietnam too. That’s incredible for a man to know 32 languages. Fantastic! Does anyone know his email address? if any does, pls advise me through mine n.nail@yahoo.com so that I can write to him asking for some valuable methods, experience for learning a foreign language as one can see understanding the other person from different culture by speaking to him in his mother tongue is a useful way for closely bridging people of various backgrounds.

I lived in Germany,Linguistic happen to be one of my hobby as well. I believe for some is an addiction with a different feeling that you are able do decipher a secret without hindrances.People who long to learn a language see it sometime as a challenge,and if you a gifted as in in the case of loannis Ikonomou? then Heaven could be the limit.
Nonetheless, I would translate what was written so far about our Linguistic guy soon in English, so that those who are interested could have an insight to its interview.

I don’t know if Hungarian is the most dificult language. I think the most dificult is that one you still didn’t learn. For me thai can be considered dificult, cause I don’t know a single word.
Anyway, when I was at the university, I had a friend whose relatives were from Hungary, and she hated to speak Hungarian, not because was dificult, but cause she had to translated everything Portuguese-Hungarian-Portuguese for her family, and when she went to school she had problems in learning Portuguese.

Hi. i’m from vietnam. i’ve read an article about him on a magazine in vietnam. he’s so incredible; according to the article, he can speak fluently write correctly 32 languages, it may be 42 if including some ancient languages. He access a new language by a special method. he learns about that country and so that he loves their culture, dishes… For example: pierogi of Poland, Dostoevsky of russia…

He spends 5 years to learn english, 7 years for German… but he has a problem in pronounce Vietnamese, although he finds it easy to learn vietnamese grammar.

he ’s afraid that someday he will miss some languages he knows. “language, as well as sport, if you don’t practice, tou’ll lose”, he said
