Only when you leave your comfort zone could you really understand what someone else may be feeling in a particular circumstance. 

When it comes to understanding someone who doesn't speak English, it can be extremely trying. 

But have you ever thought about what it feels like for someone who doesn't understand English?

In a video shared on TikTok by a guy who speaks several languages, he highlights what English sounds like to non-English speakers. 

Check out the video from TikTok below.
