Croatian is a complex and extremely rich language when it comes to swearing. In no other language I have personally heard does anyone’s mother get dragged into everything quite so much, and this colourful way of expressing oneself is always as popular as it is a bit shocking among non-Croatian speakers when they are taught what certain words and phrases mean. Pair this with Gordon Ramsay’s tongue and I wouldn’t want to imagine what could be said. Thankfully, Ramsay and Croatian don’t quite seem to go too well together.
Much loved Croatian chef David Skoko posted a video on his Instagram of Gordon Ramsay speaking Croatian. It’s safe to say that unlike his skills in the cooking department, his Croatian needs some considerable work.
As Morski writes, celebrity Croatian chef David Skoko posted a video on his Instagram profile in which his young son Anton is teaching, or at least trying his very best to, the famous British chef Gordon Ramsay some words in Croatian language.
The recording was actually made last summer during the filming of Ramsay’s documentary show Uncharted, as part of which he also recorded his culinary adventures here in Croatia, as reported by Index.
Gordon Ramsay speaking Croatian is an amusing struggle to listen to as the talented chef twists his tongue trying to pronounce words such as susnjezica (sleet) and kukuruz (corn), making his young teacher Anton laugh. In the end, he concluded that words in Croatian are just too long.
