Thank you Gilgamesh!!!
I kind of do the same thing (collecting clips in different languages), but in my case is a little different.......and a little embarrassing too =)=)=)..........because all my clips are cartoons (Lupo Alberto, Shin Chan, A Turma da Monica, etc.).
I'll be checking the ones you posted, thanks again.
Take care.

Haha Shin Chan! I remember that little guy, he was on TV all the time while I lived in Spain. Consistently funnier in Catalan than in any other language I've seen (though they say the Galician is good too)... OK I really shouldn't know that. *blush*
Gilgamesh mate, you mustn't do that sort of thing, you'll get us all inspired and interested in new languages and SIDETRACKED and who has time to learn all the languages they want, hmm? I know I don't.
The videos in Griko were lovely, and that is the first time I've heard Basque that had a faint resemblance to Finnish in its overall sound. Before I learned Spanish it sounded about the same to me, except nonsensical, but I don't know what to make of it now.
Bring back Old English!
If anyone has clips in Greenlandic, I'm curious but skeptical, because I'm already at risk of falling in love beyond repair. Someone posted something on names in another thread - what kind of genius language has names for actual people that mean both "little peace" and "stop crying"? Honestly? Love it.

Hindi Panchatantra (Indian educational story.)
Sad that I don't have any bookmarks because I usually just click around and then some more - at that time I was looking for snippets of Bollywood movies to get an idea of spoken Hindi.
Lizzern, the other day I watched some One Piece with one of the kids and the main cast spoke Castilian Spanish, but the locals of that episode spoke Catalan. Quite an interesting effect (if only I would anderstand the Catalan already..)

I love looking up clips in Xhosa, it just sounds so wonderful. I was a little surprised actually at how many clips in
Xhosa there are on YouTube! There's even some brief lessons.
YouTube is also where I first heard Finnish, Esperanto, Czech, and some others.
