The other day I went into a bunch of typical American Chinese takeout restaurants as an ordinary but kinda clueless white guy and ordered food in fluent Chinese (Mandarin, Cantonese, and Fuzhounese). Most American Chinese takeout restaurants like this are run by people from China’s Fujian province, so it was fun for them to hear me speak their native but fairly rare language of Fuzhounese!
It was a really fun prank and social experiment to see Chinese people’s reactions - both the waiters and the other patrons in these NYC Chinatown restaurants were totally shocked! Thanks everyone for supporting me on my language learning journey!!!

Kash Bhuiyan as an american, i can agree with this statement lmao
I’m antisocial soo😭😂
I love how real Chinese people are, they really aren’t afraid to speak their mind 😂
My Chinese mom fr 😂
especially when they believe none of their customers can understand a single thing they say. the purest form of free speech lol
It's because they know it takes a lot of effort to learn a completely different language in a high enough capacity to be confident speaking it.
I know some Italian from my Italian classes in High School. My most common phrase is "Mi Italiano é cosi-cosi" = "MY Italian is so-so." I'd love to relearn Italian, because I genuinely had fun with the language.
@@tickledpickle5671 Ehh kind of, while true, its more likely just a cultural difference. Chinese people are extremely direct don't sugarcoat what they mean. Anyway if you're serious about learning italian again you should, never too late.

This is some very wholesome stuff. Never realized how friendly Chinese are once you get past the language barrier.
Well of course! I bet it’s really nerve wracking to try to talk to someone when you’re not comfortable with the language

I really enjoy this channel.....Chinese People are usually so friendly....I am in contact with a 1/2 dozen Chinese sellers for my business needs...I at times have to watch what I say as they are so Nice....I have to realize that they are trying to make the most they can for certain products, just like me trying to get the best price I can...We end up compromising, them lowering the price and I committing to make a purchase...If i had to do this in the US, I would have no problem saying FU...I love Chinese people!
It’s crazy how much more happy and comfortable they look when they can easily communicate. They usually look mad and reserved haha
Not knowing or understanding English language I'm sure can be frustrating for them.. But when he flips into their native tongue.. I'm sure they feel better..
Like Gloria from "Modern Family" say: "Do you know how hard is to think in my language and translate? I'm very intelligent in my language!" - I think everyone is more comfortable in their native dialect, less pressure.

It must be cool to be language fluid like that. Looks like a lot of fun, I know I would have a blast with that skill. You are very enjoyable to watch, thanks for bringing the world a little closer together in a positive way. 😄 And pigging out at the same time! 😆 🥡🥢
This makes me want to learn every most frequently used language. So many encounters are missed because of language barriers.
You're absolutely right. I speak four languages (not mandarin though), and it's a great way to at least get to First base...
for sure. I speak two proficiently (Spanish and English) and one at a basic level (French.) There is all the benefit in the world for speaking at least one other language, and no benefit to only speaking one.
it also can help financially! i live in a chinese town and i can get a meal with 2.60 to 6 bucks
Well said.
I could teach you Serbian if you want lol not a frequently used language but I guarantee that it's very unique. We read as we write there's no special way of saying it like in other languages like there's no combinations of ch or similar we make up for it with just one letter and we also wrote the same way we say it. I remember reading that it's one of the most complicated languages since 90% languages is letter combinations. I don't know about Asian languages though but I think they have letter combinations as well. The language has 2 different dialects one is called latin(latinica) and other chirilic(ćirilica), latin dialect is the same as normal English dialect just without w, x, y and q but it has some other ones like č, ć, đ, ž while chirilic is similar to Russian dialect (љ, њ, р, т, з, у, и, о, п, ш, д, ф, г, к, л, ч, ћ, џ, ц, в, б, н, м, ђ, ж)that's the basics though
You sir, are a polyglot extraordinaire!!!! Thank you so much for your videos!!! 😊

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.” Nelson Mandela
thats awesome bro !
This so wholesome. They IMMEDIATELY lighten up as soon as he starts speaking
They probably get verbal abuse when they don't understand or misheard what an English/American person is trying to order. I think it's worth trying to learn another language or at least know common sentences for when going on holiday, people appreciate others that try.
I used to work in a REALLY small town where a lot of tourists passed through to get to Vegas, and I had a very sweet Korean family come in to my restaurant. They were having a hard time ordering in English and they were incredibly happy when I took their order in Korean. They left me a Korean won and the Korean equivalent of a dime. It was SO cool.
People most of the time open up when you speak their local language. Its a sign of mutual trust I suppose.
Perhaps they will spare him when China invades.
@@DekkarJr Good thing I’m Canadian
Every restaurant he goes into the people are in a bad mood and don’t care until he speaks Chinese then they smile 😊

@@TalaIsDarker Long hours, low pay. Plus Americans are weird about the attitues of service people lol
People love to see foreign people speak they hometown language fluently.
Chinese afraid of language barrier from foreigner. especially something bad scenario happen for example like complaining about service attitude which won't happen in Chinese community due to different cultures.
and also avoid some intentionally suppress & discrimination. u might disagree but it's true that Chinese are united and alert into people come in malicious. until they find out u speak Mandarin which remove language barrier.
this is probably the reason that u find them not smiling into u :)
It's magic 😄
thats awesome man, maybe this is my queue to learn lol
love to see all the smiles you are a good guy
In the beginning, they all understand what he's saying, but are confused because, they just can't wrap their minds around the fact that he's saying it.
I lived in a foreign country for 15 years and this happened all the time except with people I hung around a lot who were used to hearing me speak their language. I think their mind is so fixated on their amazement that you speak their language that they aren't paying full attention to what you're saying.

It's actually quite sad. I see it in all of his videos. The people are so judgmental and want NOTHING to do with him. And then he speaks their language and they treat him well. It goes to show that most of these people don't give a fuck about the people who live in America, especially those who were born there. They don't attempt to assimilate and learn the language (English) and they give us trouble for it. Yet this guy shows them that with practice and a willingness to learn anyone can learn any language. But rather than take a life lesson out of it, they laugh and giggle for a bit. As soon as he leaves that room they go back to their old ways and continue to talk shit about everyone around them in their mother tongue. Why do we glorify these situations? He made a Chinese person, who looks like they hate everyone around them, smile and somehow this is considered amazing. He is non-intentionally exposing all of these people for how nasty minded they are. I expect that if I went to China I would learn the language, be nice to people and treat everyone properly. Instead they do the opposite.
@@marchfifth1754 Perhaps you may view it like that and I see your point. However, from my point, it's the other way round, minorities especially Asians often try to blend in to Western culture to fit. Especially younger generations because they will ostracized of they don't. How else so Asians have western names? It's so white ppl can say their names and remember it lol. The British heavily established that during their colonialism as they complete stripped any non British within their society of their ethnic identity. I could also point out how Asians are badly treated in America from Japanese concentration camps in 2nd world war to beating them up due to the pandemic. Therefore, from I see it, I don't see it as a surprise if they are just as prejudiced if they don't get with equal respect. But of course, I've seen how Chinese tourists and businesses behave in other countries in the media and it wasn't great. So I don't completely disagree with just that respect comes both ways and it's clear to them that this dude goes forward to meet them halfway which not a lot of westerners do (just expect to speak fluent English and understand them regardless of any country they are at 🙄)

I can’t imagine how refreshing it would be to come to a country where so few people speak your language and have some random dude come in and speak your native language fluently
I once had a Polish girl speak to me in Welsh and it blew my mind.
I speak English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Spanish. I met a Chinese lady in Madrid who spoke these same 4 languages, and she invited me to eat at her restaurant. We just sat around drinking and laughing while speaking in and out of 4 languages. It was one of my favorite travel experiences, and we still chat on Facebook. "Quiero sik faan with the zha ji pero no peanuts mmgoi." (I want to eat rice with fried chicken but not with peanuts please.)
You should watch his recent trip to Mexico videos! He found a Chinese restaurant and was able to speak Chinese with the owners. It was really heartwarming!
@@pkawesome6230 Yup, saw that one! I have many amazing Cantonese experiences as well; it's my family's native language. Since it's a spoken language, people really connect over it and are fascinated when non-native speakers learn it. My Madrid experience is more similar to his video on Chinese Latino restaurants, but it is rare to meet another polyglot that is so fluent that they can transition in and out of languages.
I lived near a Bavarian village in my home town in the States, I helped translate German for an elderly couple visiting the states for the first time. My German isn't the best, not like this guys Chinese but it was rough enough for them to order and enjoy their food.
Too cool bro. Can you see how much it means to the Chinese you speak their language so fluently. It’s a very cool thing you’re doing.
so cool - amazing to connect with people and how they warm up when you try
