In viral video, four-year-old Barron Trump speaks with a Slovenian accent

Ever since Donald Trump started running for office, his family has been thrown back into the spotlight. Now that he's president-elect, all eyes are on his wife, children, and grandchildren. Barron Trump, his youngest son, has been getting special attention online.

With tons of fans making videos of him on TikTok, to his father praising him in multiple podcasts, Barron has become the talk of the town. People have been talking about his towering height, him going to New York University, and the very important role he played in getting his father re-elected.

Naturally, given the spotlight on him, an old video that resurfaces every now and again on social media, has been circulating once more. It shows a four-year-old Barron Trump in his father's office with both his parents.

An old video of four-year-old Barron making the rounds again

The video was recorded for an interview with Larry King in 2010, and it shows the child interacting with his mother, Melania—who, rumours have it, may not join her husband in the White House during his second term, and father Donald.

In the video, Barron is seen jumping around while his father sits in the background, and picks up his suitcase while saying:

I like my suitcase.

He then says, 'I have to go to school now?' to which Melania replies:

Yeah, you will have lunch then you will go to school.

In another part of the clip, Donald Trump says 'you can do reading, writing, and arithmetics', and follows by asking his son for a kiss goodbye and telling him to get full As. He then reminds Barron:

When you get older, what are you going to remember? No drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. And, you know what else? No tattoos. I don't ever wanna see tattoos on you.

The video is being reshared online in light of Donald Trump's re-election and people have been noticing the same detail they have been every time it goes viral. Barron Trump speaking with a Slovenian accent.

Larry King of course noticed it at the time and questioned Melania about it, as the child grew up in the United States. The woman responded:

He does. He spends most of the time with me.

When Donald Trump was asked about it, he said he thought it was 'great'. Melania also took the opportunity to add that Barron was already speaking three languages at the time.

In 2016, a book written by Slovenian journalist Bojan Požar titled Melania Trump - The Inside Story: The Potential First Lady talks about Barron and emphasises that the boy almost certainly spoke Slovenian with his aunt.

Since the video was released, the question has constantly been raised as to whether the now 18-year-old still speaks English with a Slovenian accent or whether he has outgrown it, so to speak.

Given Barron's private nature, and the fact that he had not spoken publicly in years, it still remains a mystery. However, given that he has been educated in American institutes, now going to New York University, it is very unlikely that he retained his Slovenian accent.
