It’s not unusual for youth nowadays to speak more than one language, but 32-year-old Muhamed Mešić is not your typical polyglot. He can communicate fluently in 56 different languages and claims to understand over 70 of them. 现在的小年轻们会说不止一种语言,可不是什么新鲜事儿。但是对于32岁的穆罕默德•梅希奇可不是一般的多语言能力者。他可以用56种不同的语言流利地交流,并且声称能够理解70多种语言。 Ever since he was a little boy growing up in Tuzla, an industrial city in the former Yugoslavia (currently in Bosnia Herzegovina), Muhamed Mešić was fascinated by languages. His exceptional talent for quickly learning to communicate in different languages was discovered by chance, when he was just 5-years-old. He was on vacation with his family, in Greece, and recalls being able to listen to their local neighbor speaking Greek and figuring out what he was saying from the situation they were in. 梅希奇在前南斯拉夫(目前的波黑共和国)的工业城市图兹拉长大,当他还是小男孩时,就对语言极为着迷。当他那快速学习以不同语言沟通的卓越才华被偶然间发现时,他才只有5岁。那时他和家人正在希腊度假,他能够回忆起当地邻居所说的希腊语,并根据现场情景理解他们在说什么。 |
