Loved this! As the daughter of a Chinese father and Taiwanese mother, I think this accurately depicts all the language-related confusion I had growing up. Not only did I have to get used to understanding and speaking with two different accents (depending on which side of the family I was talking to), I always scrambled word choices like 馬鈴薯/土豆, 番茄/西红柿, "lājī"/"ㄌㄜㄙㄜ". This was hilarious!
I love how - without even noticing maybe - our whole body, tone, speed change when we switch languages. I guess, English would be my second language and It kinda gives me a whole other personality. I love how you both start a bit shy but then something clicks and you get a new dynamic. I LOVE IT! ☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️
It may be true! I'm very passionate and honest when I'm speaking English when I hardly ever show so much emotion when I'm speaking Persian (my first language). It may have something to do with the culture or the environment in which I've been raised.
Kevin seems to be more talkative speaking in mandarin! Also, for some reason, his voice suits the language well.. so natural haha Love this video Miki :) You guys are so cute!
Pretty impressive, I must say. Also it’s clear Miki’s mandarin has the Taiwanese accent influence while Kevin’s mandarin has the mainlanders rolling of his tongue (even tho Shanghainese don’t roll their tongue as much as the northerners). Both of your parents would be proud of your Chinese. Make sure you pass that down to the next generation.
This was so fun to watch you both speak another language. I can barely have conversational viet 😅 you should do a video of you speaking only in Japanese to kev for 24 hours
Omg as a fellow Taiwanese I’m impressed with y’all Mandarin. Also, I’m ashamed that I can’t speak it as proficiently as I used to before. Loved this! This video gave me a nostalgic feeling about Taiwan 🥲 y’all should do more of these 🤍
Yeah, can tell from the accents. 小口子吵架真的很有趣. First thing to learn when learning Chinese (mandarin): 蛋餅 凱文 養樂多（吸管插進去） 極簡主義者(minimalist) 紅掌撥清波 (kindergarten poem)
Damn this is impressive! I grew up with my parents speaking Cantonese but I can't speak it (can understand tho). I learnt Mandarin for several years too but am nowhere near this good! I hope to be better someday, and watching you do this has inspired me to keep going! I'd love to see more videos like this in the future too!
I loved this - it brought me so much comfort as a fellow Taiwanese 🇹🇼. I also died laughing when they both started reciting the poem! I grew up going to Chinese school in the Bay Area and feel it was a right of passage for every child to memorize the poem. I drink Yakult Miki’s way cause I usually can’t peel it and end up peeling the small tab off by accident anyways. 😅
I've never seen people open yakult like Miki, Kevin's method all yhe way!! So impressed by both your Chinese skills. The ap Chinese battle in the beginning was funny🤣
I'm also Taiwanese, but don't really get many opportunities to speak in Chinese other than with my family when I'm home. So it's really awesome to hear the Taiwanese accent "out in the wild!" Please do more videos like this :)
omg as a singaporean living in the US, your taiwanese accent (the singaporean chinese accent is quite similar haha) is so cute & comforting to listen to :)
This video was so much fun to watch! I feel like I'm watching a c-drama. I was born in Hong Kong, raised in Michigan, spent most of high school in Shanghai and studied Spanish in school since 7th grade (and I teach it now!). So I speak Cantonese, Mandarin, English and Spanish. My husband is Taiwanese American and my in-laws tell me my Mando is better than his - not always true but make me feel pretty good. haha
HEY...i am IN Toronto , Canada. multi culture city. I have MET so many ppl mostly white that speak perfect Mandarin. LOL. we always assume they spend like 5 or more years there. THey always OH I was there for ONLY 1 yr , the longest 1.5 yr. FULL speaking. its one of those things like Math table. it comes off a LOT but once u have basic u build on it FAST . it is bit like parymid. VS English n latin every word has to be remindered individually , n each word has a LOT of sounds to remember.
Wow...as a Malaysian Chinese who has heard every Chinese accent, Miki's Chinese is so Taiwan and Kevin's Chinese actually has a lot of China feels in it🤣🤣 It's fun to hear two different accents communicating in the same room😆
Really intriguing to see how the language that we use in our daily communication affects how we structure the way we speak for other languages. For example, at 0:22 when Kevin said 我爸爸妈妈也说中文在家里 which translate to my parents speak Mandarin at home which is how one would deliver the sentence grammatically in English. However, in Mandarin, it will usually be phrased as 我爸爸妈妈在家里都说中文. Personally, I face this issue a lot when I converse in English where in my head it feels like I am translating my thoughts in another language to English and usually the grammar comes out weird.
I really like this video! 🙌 Your interactions are hilarious 🤣🤣 Exhibit 1 Miki: Why you can speak Chinese? Kev: 因为我是中国人呀🙄 Exhibit 2 Miki: Did you get the max score? Kev: 那五分，要是我拿四分，我还能回家吗? 😤 And of course the debate on the closet 🤣🤣
I enjoyed this video very much! As a native Mandarin speaker myself, I thought both Miki and Kevin spoke really well and the pronunciation was more or less spot on. Chinese school paid off! You can definitely hear the differences in the way they speak, Miki more Taiwanese style, and Kevin more mainland China style. There was definitely some haha or lol moments in this video too...please do another video only speaking in Mandarin!
This was so fun to watch!! Please do more of these :)) You guys are so good at speaking Chinese! I feel like I learned a couple of new words (my Chinese is really bad... definitely no AP Chinese or Chinese SAT II's here haha)
I’ve been watching your videos in English. When I saw you were going to do a video in Chinese I was very intrigued. But after watching it, I realized, the biggest gift other than gift of life is the language and culture our parents remind us of where we are from. Our generation of Chenglish is so special 💜 你們講中文好可愛，我覺得其實試著每天講中文才比較不會詞窮 🤣
I loved watching this!!! My husband spoke Tagalog as his first language and tries to speak to me in Tagalog because I’m learning it pretty late in life ☺️😆
"因为我是中国人” 哈哈哈 At the medical office I work at, we refer to COVID as 新冠肺炎 I came all the way over here because you said to leave a comment if we understand mandarin and I noticed there were no Chinese comments 🥲
So surprise and happy to hear both you and Kevin trying your best to speak in mandarin. Just wondering if both of you are okay in reading Chinese characters too? 😅😅 Cause there is traditional characters and simplified characters, wonder if you guys are okay either?! Maybe should do a challenge to see who can recognise more characters then, hahaha…
你们很可爱！please make more of these. I haven’t been able to speak that much chinese when im In usa for college so listening to you guys allowed me to practice haha!
I pay attention to the small details a lot when it comes to people speaking, and I can tell when someone is from Taiwan because they all have that distinguishing accent when they speak Mandarin. It's hard to explain, but when Taiwanese people speak Mandarin, they all have that 嗲聲嗲氣 type of feeling. Because Chinese is a tonal language, it's very noticeable for me to tell when their tones are all off. Something I used to notice when I took college classes back then was that Taiwanese when speak "吃 (Chī) (eat)" is always saying it like "ci," as in their tongue is flat when they're pronouncing the word "eat" in Chinese. But it's supposed to be a curl tongue tone when you're saying "eat" in Chinese. It's the same with "speak" in Chinese too. Taiwanese people always say it as "suo," but it's supposed to be "shuo," as in curling tongue tone.
yea we are very lazy when it comes curling our tongues, and I guess there is more flow and connection between the pronunciations, so there is a stereotype that we mumble our speech. Another difference is adding meaningless sounds like (哦)"oh" and "(啊)ah" after a sentence like: 是啊(yes). or like if we agree to someone's argument or statement it will sound something like 哦哦哦對啊. There are differences in vocabulary usages between those living in China and Taiwan. For example, Chinese call subway 地鐵(de tie) and in Taiwan majority people call subway 捷運(jie yun)。We also speak slower compared to other provinces in China.
@@djxjxnnxskdkxm2525 Chinese is tonal, so there is a definite way to pronouncing words and putting a specific tone to them, otherwise it does sound off. I

I speak Bahasa Indonesia (but then again, I have been living here my whole life 😅). So funny to see Kevin getting chatty in Chinese 😹
In northern India there is a place called ladakh. We speak ladakhi language there. You can say "jullay" as to say hi to someone 🥲

哈哈哈哈聽你們講中文好不習慣，有點怪，但是好的怪😂😂， 垃圾那段真的超好笑的，希望你們之後會來台灣，想看看你們本人😃😃😃 我是彰化人
