tl;dr: Viggo Mortensen speaks English, Spanish, Danish, French, Italian, Catalan, and Arabic
We’ve featured a few polyglots on Cultrface, from the Black man speaking Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Korean and Arabic to supermarket shoppers to a couple of guys sharing 21 languages between them.
But this is arguably the most high-profile example of a polyglot we’ve featured so far and it’s none other than Oscar-nominated actor Viggo Mortensen.
In the video below, we see Mortensen speaking 7 languages:
- English
- Spanish
- Danish
- French
- Italian
- Catalan
- Arabic
It’s a joy to hear, especially with the natural accent and inflexions. This is likely nothing new to some but I was none-the-wiser (he’s also an author, musician, poet, photographer and painter).
