A journalist has jumped between six different languages while reporting on the Ukraine crisis.
The reporter, Philip Crowther, managed to effortlessly switch between English, Luxembourgish, Spanish, Portuguese, French and German while covering the developing news on the rising tensions between Ukraine and Russia.
Crowther was broadcast on various news channels, including USA’s Morning In America, Luxembourg’s RTL De Journal, Spain’s DW Español, USA’s Voice of America, France’s LCI en direct and Austria’s Servus Nachrichten.
The journalist’s impressive display appeared to be filmed consecutively, too, as Crowther was wearing the same clothes in each clip.

One commenter remarked, 'Hes even got the accents hes got an english accent in english and spain accent in spanish [sic],' while another replied, 'As a French native, I might rate him native.'
One Reddit user wrote, 'I speak English, French and Spanish (Mexican) and man, his accents are excellent. Wow.'
A different fan of the video playfully joked, 'When you take all courses of Duolingo SERIOUSLY [sic],' referring to the popular online language learning game.
Meanwhile, some fans marvelled at how he knows so many languages in the first place.
'And here I can barely manage two at native level/accent. It's hard to imagine just how one goes about getting 6(?) Different languages to sound natural [sic],' one Reddit user said.
Another credited his education for his ability to speak multiple languages, saying, 'This, ladies and gentlemen, is called an EDUCATION! Something you get in schools, not by following QAnon nonsense on Twitter [sic],' another user wrote.
Crowther is 'a multilingual Washington DC-based TV and radio journalist', according to his website.
'He is the International Affiliate Reporter for the Associated Press, and reports in English, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, and Luxembourgish, for AP’s broadcast partners.'
