The audience of the Russian TV show “Amazing People” literally dropped their jaws in awe, speechless with what they saw from a 4-year old little girl.
Being fluent in two languages is quite the achievement for most adults, but safe to say that this girl took it up a few notches when she fluently spoke seven languages on a TV show.
Yep, you read it right, fluent in 7 languages. On Tuesday, little Bella Devyatkina from Moscow showed off her linguistic abilities when she fluently spoke English, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, French, German and Arabic.
She did it while she was skipping around the stage in her cute pink dress with her hair tied in a ponytail.
What was most stunning or even mind-boggling about the little child wonder is that she was able to talk to all the language representatives in a manner that made sense, exceeding a vocabulary that is not just for small talk.
Bella’s mother, Yulia, says that she started teaching her daughter languages at the age of two. They started with English, but as soon as she noticed that Bella was interested in it, she began adding other languages.
Bella practices English with her mother and is tutored by native speakers for other languages.
Language specialists all over the world found the little child as very special, one saying that, “Such cases are rare but have happened in the past. Language centers in the human brain get switched on at different stages of development.”
Bella became an instant internet star, and could take home $ 20,000 if she wins the show.
