It never clicked until today that Sascha Pederiva is actually Swiss and the German he speaks for VL isn't the one he actually speaks (Swiss-German is slightly different, right? I've a got a friend who's Swiss and tells me there are differences but I'm French and I don't know a thing about German so I wouldn't know exactly). Yes, swiss german is quite different from normal german. But all swiss people learn normal german in school, but nevertheless Sascha's german very good, because it sounds very funny when a swiss person speaks normal german. At least I (as a german who lives in switzerland) think that.

Tho I read in an interview he lived for a long time in Berlin, that's probably why his 'normal' German is so good.

One of my old housemates was from Switzerland and spoke German even as an English speaker I could hear they sounded very different. Being from Australia it seems insane that an accent can be so different when you live do close together!!! And québécois... Sometimes I think it doesn't sound French at all! I read somewhere it's an old French dialect that they speak and it hasn't really changed since!

I read somewhere it's an old French dialect that they speak and it hasn't really changed since! Québécois has indeed old French roots, it didn't really stay 'old', it evolved completely differently because of the American influence and the fact that less people speak it there. But it did keep words French people no longer use. Well, Spanish, Italian, French, etc. they have the same roots yet are so different. Listen to French people from the North of the country talk and then from the South of France, the accents are really really different, the way they speak and the words they use. It's still French though Anyway, here are some new gifs! (from episode 4516) ( tumblr post) ( tumblr post) and some edits with screencaps From his introduction SL wit Juri & Martha and more gifs: (from VL Outtakes video) A random find by 4lugia (LJ), he's wearing something by Derbe.

Thanks for posting the photos, Chrollianne. Sigh. Sascha is so handsome. The casting agents in Germany sure know how to pick interesting looking actors.
I know that Sascha wasn't trying to get caught, but it was like he WILLED Olli to look up at him.
Have fun and learn during your internship this summer.

Even when he was caught being a voyeur! He just kept that eye contact strong... I like how VL is moving out of their usual mould to hire different handsome as well!
