@@karlonly9941 you may perceive it differently, but from the other videos I've seen him upload, all I see is him putting down others (especially Chinese people) while they try their best to learn English. Learning a language is not easy and it requires a lot of courage, but it's disturbing that there is a double standard going on in his videos. Like in one of his videos he commented sarcastically about someone having an American accent and in another video he criticises someone for his/her chinglish accent. I really wonder what does he expect him/her to do? He also tries to put on an acceny but I don't see anyone criticising him but there he is putting down others. It's like asking them not to speak at all. Why not let him be more encouraging and not just simply putting down others while they try hard to speak English.
@@karlonly9941 he puts down others for having an American accent (I.e: JJ LIN) yet he puts on a Chinese accent while speaking. I don't see a problem in that but since he's there to ciriticise others for putting an accent while he himself does the same, I feel it's important to point it out
@@weiwenwwe2066 I guess I haven't watched enough of his content or haven't witnessed this yet. I can't say your wrong but I'll pay more attention. But I do hope you realize Chinese culture is very blunt and comments that would be considered rude in America, Canada, UK are not as serious in Chinese culture. Maybe it's a culture understanding he's expressing. As you saw in this video the girl called him a mother F'er which to her was a complete stranger.
Mandarin is acknowledged to be a difficult language to learn for native English speakers, so this guy's skills (and accent, apparently) are seriously impressive. However, the level of English skills among these Beijing students is also good, and in some cases (cf the guy studying Chemistry) very impressive, given that they've not studied outside China. Congratulations all round!
But they learn English every day for 20 years with native speakers and watch English content on a daily basis. This guy has taught himself. So the white guy is way more impressive.
@@fwwryh7862 But to achieve fluency in a language you have to practice conversation; if you don't converse, 20 years of English classes wont help nor will watching English TV shows.

@@susaninmaine Northern English person here. We have loads of accents in England, so many, that experts have been able to predict in some cases exactly which street someone has grown up on based on their accent. Non-UK people will probably be more used to Southern accents, Northern accents are rather distinct from Southern accents, Northern accents can be quite different from one another in how they sound but still distinctly Northern, sometimes they can be quite clear to understand straight away or difficult to understand until you get used to them.

@@einsteinalbert747 Good point! Chinese is a general term that includes all the 500 dialects in China, E.g. Hokkien, Cantonese, Taishanese, Wuhan dialect, Suzhou dialect etc. Chinese is referring to the text, the Chinese characters.
You don't "speak Chinese", Chinese includes all 500 languages and dialects in China, E.g. Mandarin/ Putonghua, Hokkien, Cantonese, Taishanese, Wuhan dialect, Suzhou dialect etc. Chinese is referring to the text, the Chinese characters.
its mostly the hard "t" in accounting, most native English speakers with an American accent brush over the "t" while Chinese people don't, so its an easy way to tell
As someone that speaks both languages, I find it so enjoyable that everything can understood even when they code-switch a little. That is why it is always good to learn multiple languages, it can be use for fun sometimes!
I think it's a bit different. It's more like "someone who can't express his inner world to the people around him... A person feeling like he has two identities. I can relate because I used to be like that much more when I was a teenager.
Every person there speak English while most Students in America aren’t actually forced forced to take. A language just for like Graduation requirements. But after that no one just really studied language
I did an exchange program for 2 years in Beijing but 99% of my lessons were in English and I studied with mainly foreigners, we had a Chinese class but i didn’t relearn much, I guess you truly have to immerse yourself full-time into the language to learn well because it wasn’t just me as foreigner in that class who struggled. But I learn pretty much all the basic daily communication skills. I still watch shows in mandarin and I wished I could return one day to learn full time the language
Loved the video. The English word you are looking for is 'reserved' Specifically 'he/she is a reserved person'. "The definition of reserved is saved for someone or some purpose, or is a person who doesn't share his feelings, thoughts or emotions."
And Harvard isn't necessarily the best school in America, but it's the best liberal arts school so an apt comparison to Beida. Tsinghua would be the MIT of China.
So he's lived in China for eight years...that helps explain a lot! I'd hope after living in any country for eight years someone serious about learning a language could achieve a high level of mastery over it. (This is not to take away from his linguistic abilities--he's clearly talented)
A co-worker of mine is from Beijing. He went to school in Texas to get his computer science degree and obviously is a mandarin speaker although he also speaks Cantonese. The hilarious part is that he learned a lot of English in Texas and actually says "y'all" every now and then. He has a quasi-Texas accent that completely is against his appearance. We've been trying to speak with a cowboy accent every time he is around. He takes it well and enjoys our little language pranks on him.
That is quite true. My PhD colleagues are actually all quite familiar with writing papers in English at a very professional level. 我是好早就出去留学的人，所以英语是非常好（雅思听力阅读都能考满分，写作口语都8分以上），但是写起论文来我觉得我那些中国研究院里面的同学跟我水平也差不多。当然，能做到博士，他们也是很尖子了。
I tried my “u-tube” learned Chinese on a Chinese waitress a few years back. I thought I was ordering shredded chilli beef amongst other things, but she started crying and two Bruce Lee look-a-like waiters dragged me out and kicked me around the street. I still don’t know what upset them so much.
Chris, ojalá los latinos pudiéramos disfrutar aún más de tus ocurrencias, si fuese posible, igualmente los subtítulos en español. Un abrazo desde Colombia!
@@dmillzzz1918 It has nothing to do about whether it's an international language or not. It's about the ability of the mouth and the tongue. Chinese has more unique letters and for that reason, the mouth is capable for saying different letters because the mind got used to it, learning the hardest letters no one else could say it is like a practice for both the mouth and tbe tongue, thus making it easy for them to say normal letters in English
Now I wish I could read and speak Chinese. It honestly sounds and Looks so Beautiful but it seems IMPOSSIBLE to learn. How did Chris even start learning? And he got this far in 8 years? That's really impressive, I think
@oscar daniel Chinese, I believe (I only assume this because although I didn’t see her face in a video, he spoke to her in Chinese.) Don’t quote me on it.
@@陈岩-d1i But I think that might help little. As I know, none of my friends would really prepare for the CET4 or CET6. They just took the exam without any review, but still got passed. This is so-called "裸考". So the main reason is the English they learned at high school to pass the National College Entrance Examination.
Day late but the description he gave of the unique Chinese word sounds like a perfect description of how most introverts process. Inside - so much. Outside - quiet. But you get to know us & we can be wickedly funny.
His chinese is Very good for a foreigner. There were only minimal tone mistakes! 真棒！for whatever reason he sounds like he is from the north east of china. 哈哈
I am Chinese, graduated from an ordinary Chinese university, didn't get ideal grade in college entrance examination , either, just merely passed CET4 by good luck, failed in cet6 three times,I went to South Korea for a trip in the summer vacation of my junior year of my university, since then I realized the importance of English,my passion was triggered out,I was 20 that year, right now I am 27 years old, after seven years practice,I feel my spoken English is at least not much worse than students of Peking university of this video, although still with accent, this proved two well-known proverbs,one is no pain no gain, another one is practice makes perfect,btw,my method of English study is creating bilingual environment myself, if it was not urgent,I would require myself to tranlate each of sentences spoken by me into English, gradually,more and more familiar,for students who can only study English domestically,you may consider this method
It is very funny, but don't you think it's a little embarrassing too for us as a people? I mean, the fact that we Chinese are always surprised when a foreigner can speak the language is a bit ethnocentric (arrogant), right? 我認為中國人有點民族主義。Chinese is just a language like any other, and with enough effort anyone can learn it.
@@Qichar Like a Chinese speaks Hindi, he walks on street in Dehli, people will feel strange and astonished. 这是文化自豪。一种深厚的文化的魅力。现实是，很少有人像马思瑞那样，说得那么得体和深厚的，不容易！very cool.

So he's lived in China for eight years...that helps explain a lot! I'd hope after living in any country for eight years someone serious about learning a language could achieve a high level of mastery over it. (This is not to take away from his linguistic abilities--he's clearly talented)
con razon
A co-worker of mine is from Beijing. He went to school in Texas to get his computer science degree and obviously is a mandarin speaker although he also speaks Cantonese. The hilarious part is that he learned a lot of English in Texas and actually says "y'all" every now and then. He has a quasi-Texas accent that completely is against his appearance.
We've been trying to speak with a cowboy accent every time he is around. He takes it well and enjoys our little language pranks on him.
You speak better Chinese than I do English.. Thats awesome and love it.
我在国外都几十年了，英语没你说中文好，你很聪明，加油。
5:29 I feel like he's learned English in Australia because he has an Australian English speaking accent
Or an Australian tutor or lots of exposure to Australian TV shows.
Sounds more British to me
@@definitionz I'm Australian and it sounds almost 100% Aussie to me :P
Irene Tanya He is speaking the correct, original, and unmodify version English. America changed english very much.
@@landonarchuleta2495 there's no such thing mate
When more people know you, you become more popular, resulting in less people falling for your pranks as time goes.
For those with majors in Accounting, one must understand english as they need to communicate with different stakeholders around the globe. 👍👏
能解释闷骚的小哥英语也特别好，听着很舒服
Very impressed with Chris's lanuage skills and accent.
I cant even learn more than a few words of another language.

这种节目还是见鬼去吧！不要在中国领土上做这样节目。要做就找那些外国留学生测试下他们汉语水平。要测试英文，就来英格兰，随便一个华侨二代都能笑话他美式的乡下发音。go to hell ，American Crude ！

国内大学生英文的读、写都很好，词汇量很大，但口语可能稍差，不过只要有机会练习，就会提高很快。
That is quite true. My PhD colleagues are actually all quite familiar with writing papers in English at a very professional level. 我是好早就出去留学的人，所以英语是非常好（雅思听力阅读都能考满分，写作口语都8分以上），但是写起论文来我觉得我那些中国研究院里面的同学跟我水平也差不多。当然，能做到博士，他们也是很尖子了。
LMAO, an educated native can hit 25k in average, and they adopt 2 new per day in the rest of their life, how come your confidence to say that?
Bruh.....
关键中国教育也不是为了培养口语好的学生，学英语是因为很多顶尖的科技论文用的是英文，重英“文”而不重英“语”。

5:38 really liked this kind he is so chill and understanding and well at explaining stuff hope he succeeds
I tried my “u-tube” learned Chinese on a Chinese waitress a few years back. I thought I was ordering shredded chilli beef amongst other things, but she started crying and two Bruce Lee look-a-like waiters dragged me out and kicked me around the street.
I still don’t know what upset them so much.
Chinese people here dont have connections with the Chinese you talk about.
As a Brit, the way you pronounce 'okay' in English cracks me up. It's a cross between surfer dude and valley girl.
Yes, its a common way of pronouncing it in the "under 30" college-educated crowd here in America. Its a bit Beta for a dude.
@@GUITARTIME2024 Calling things "beta" is pretty beta

The weird thing is when a Chinese speaks perfect English in States, everyone thinks it's normal.
English Is International Language
@@dmillzzz1918 It has nothing to do about whether it's an international language or not. It's about the ability of the mouth and the tongue. Chinese has more unique letters and for that reason, the mouth is capable for saying different letters because the mind got used to it, learning the hardest letters no one else could say it is like a practice for both the mouth and tbe tongue, thus making it easy for them to say normal letters in English
Many Chinese people in the US were born here, or moved here at a really young age. It doesn't seem that weird to me.
@@0hold Okay? who cares English is still the international language of the WORLD
@@dmillzzz1918 you didnt understand the point so nvm lmaoo
Now I wish I could read and speak Chinese. It honestly sounds and Looks so Beautiful but it seems IMPOSSIBLE to learn. How did Chris even start learning? And he got this far in 8 years? That's really impressive, I think
White guy: *starts speaking mandarin
Asian guy: "Dude I'm from New Jersey"
😂😂😂😂😂
I get the joke, but he's in China... so this joke fails
Se que tambien hablas español mi hermano, dejame decirte que eres "un chingon" como decimos acá en México, un abrazo enorme.
Si mal no recuerdo, el español es su idioma nativo
哇！你中文講得很標準哦！北方的口音！好棒哦！
3:57 he was definitely getting those digits to call later 😏😏
He’s married XD
@oscar daniel Yeah.
@oscar daniel Chinese, I believe (I only assume this because although I didn’t see her face in a video, he spoke to her in Chinese.) Don’t quote me on it.
8:
I'd been studied in Xiamen for 3 years, i have to say that a lot of Chinese student speak English really well!!!
Well, I think that might because we saw a lot of English movies and videos😂
@@jackren3559 not only this, they have to pass the CET 4 or 6 (China undergraduate English level test)
@@陈岩-d1i But I think that might help little. As I know, none of my friends would really prepare for the CET4 or CET6. They just took the exam without any review, but still got passed. This is so-called "裸考". So the main reason is the English they learned at high school to pass the National College Entrance Examination.
老马又出去忽悠小姑娘了！！！！！！！！

最接近的應該是裝酷的英文 : try to be cool.
但悶騷又有點不同於裝酷! soft inside and wild outside? 內柔外野也不是悶騷的解釋!
time to show off也差了一點意思
Restrained也只能表達萬分之一
語言真的很有趣!
Day late but the description he gave of the unique Chinese word sounds like a perfect description of how most introverts process. Inside - so much. Outside - quiet. But you get to know us & we can be wickedly funny.
I love their reasons when he speaks in Chinese mandarin...
BTW, a little suggestion. 我草在多数时候is not polite，建议马老师注意。特别是如果和陌生人说我草的时候 :)
我觉得马哥是平时吐槽自己吐槽惯了，一时没注意就说出来了，口误吧哈哈哈
特別在女生面前 哈哈
中文怎么好怎么可能不知道…我X这个字还好吧 无语
The guy with the glasses sounds so proper. I love it.
Your Chinese level is really great.
His chinese is Very good for a foreigner. There were only minimal tone mistakes! 真棒！for whatever reason he sounds like he is from the north east of china. 哈哈
youtube: hey what about this video on white guys talking chinese lol?
me: lol sure
me 500 videos later: I want to learn chinese.
Me too!
How true lmao

Love it. What a card. Wished he would come to D.C. Neat dude, for sure.

I am Chinese, graduated from an ordinary Chinese university, didn't get ideal grade in college entrance examination , either, just merely passed CET4 by good luck, failed in cet6 three times,I went to South Korea for a trip in the summer vacation of my junior year of my university, since then I realized the importance of English,my passion was triggered out,I was 20 that year, right now I am 27 years old, after seven years practice,I feel my spoken English is at least not much worse than students of Peking university of this video, although still with accent, this proved two well-known proverbs,one is no pain no gain, another one is practice makes perfect,btw,my method of English study is creating bilingual environment myself, if it was not urgent,I would require myself to tranlate each of sentences spoken by me into English, gradually,more and more familiar,for students who can only study English domestically,you may consider this method
That literally sounds like my Chinese cousin when he was 15.
*MOST IMPRESSIVE*
That chinese dude studying chemistry spoke english real well and seemed cool as hell👍
很喜欢这个系列，特别是那一秒，他们彻底懵了的时候，诶... 很搞笑....那一刻，她们的脑袋一定是短路，或者浆糊，哈哈
真调皮
It is very funny, but don't you think it's a little embarrassing too for us as a people? I mean, the fact that we Chinese are always surprised when a foreigner can speak the language is a bit ethnocentric (arrogant), right? 我認為中國人有點民族主義。Chinese is just a language like any other, and with enough effort anyone can learn it.
@@Qichar Like a Chinese speaks Hindi, he walks on street in Dehli, people will feel strange and astonished. 这是文化自豪。一种深厚的文化的魅力。现实是，很少有人像马思瑞那样，说得那么得体和深厚的，不容易！very cool.

It's interesting how their English accents are different, like the one guy had an Australian English accent. It's weird.
Sounded more New Zealand to me, but potentially Australian. - Source, New Zealander
Not bad at all either
Cool guys, thanks. I'm not so great at telling the difference between the NZ and Aus accents, I'm South African lol.
