I believe a bilingual Survivor would be very interesting to watch
unfold. Twenty survivors speaking the 10 most used languages but none knowing the others. (1 of each language on each
team).
English Hindustani (India) Spanish Russian Arabic Bengali (Bangladesh) Portuguese Malay-Indonesian French |

We could include Big Tom and China James too. Maybe even Palau James. They speak their own languages.

That might be fun, but I think it'd be way too confusing for the average viewer.

But wouldn't most of the conversations have to be subtitled? And how would anybody know what anybody was saying. And there would have to be a host who
spoke all of the languages.

Well Spanish & Portuguese are very similar, so I guess they would have a little advantage since they would be able to understand the words by 70% of the
conversation between them.
Still... not a good idea for this kind of game. |
