A Polyglot Meets A Deaf Fan… This Happened!

- A while back, my friend Brian (Argentinian Food Vlogger in China) came to visit DC, and we went out to surprise Chinese people in the largest “Chinatown” in Washington, D.C. (Rockville) and make friends. I ended up meeting a group of Deaf students from Gallaudet University, the #1 school in the U.S. for the Deaf. One of theme ended up being a fan of Brian and I! Everyone was super nice and it ended up being one of the cooler interactions I’ve had since I started filming these videos. I hope you guys enjoy!
In this video you’ll see two latinos speaking Chinese (White guys speaking Chinese?), but we were also speaking Cantonese, speaking Spanish, and speaking Italian throughout the day. Anyway, we had some awesome conversations where we surprised Chinese people and they had some great reactions!
I love learning foreign languages because you get to meet and have conversations with people in a way that you probably never would otherwise. If you’re considering learning another language, I highly recommend it, and right now while we’re all locked up is a great time to do it!

That lady with the hearing difficulties was such a sweetheart, i loved how friendly you guys were towards her as it must have took guts to approach you like that. Bless you guys
Us Deaf people don't have "Hearing difficulties". That's like saying Hearing people have cognitive difficulties in comprehending that there is a completely separate culture that doesn't need sounds at all. Therefore, it is more apt to see the Hearing society as disabled.
@@Weirdpoe The lady said 'my hearing isn't very good' so i didn't assume she was deaf in that sense, i always associated 'deaf' as cannot hear at all, but what you have to understand as well, my mother is like this lady and my mother calls it hearing difficulties so who am i to argue.
But in regards to my comment, i know my mother is very sensitive about her hearing and very self-conscious about it, so i thought maybe the girl is similar as she apologizes about it when ofc why should she, my mum would never have the guys to approach ppl she doesn't know and isn't comfortable with like that which is why i think she's brave.
@@Weirdpoe She identified herself with "i don't hear very well", which, simply to rearrange the words, is a difficulty hearing. He meant no offense, and was just operating from her own statement. No reason to get upset.
@@yushis1 Which means: Hard of Hearing, not hearing difficulties.. If you don't know what you talking about, don't try to lecture others, who actually pointing out what the commentstarter said wrong.
Yes, it was lovely!
The short haired girl in the food store was so cute 😍
She was thirsty too
She has da best smile for sure👍
Why he ignored her that way rude
Maybe they were talking a lot but Chris cut the video.
She damn cute 🔥
Darn, I thought they were going to start signing ASL.
same haha i was anticipating on it
Same lol
Thought so too, that’s why I clicked the video, darn. He might know 8 languages but ASL isn’t one of them.
@@samanthagasmire9508 clearly! And it really should be one to know!
I was hoping for that, too. But since there are so many different sign languages out there the chances of them signing the same one would have been not very high, I assume. It's a shame that there isn't just one sign language for the whole world.
I love how Chinese people go from "Ugh, what does this American want" to "Oh wow, that's hilarious! Tell me about it"
Yeah, the showing of knowledge and respect of other peoples culture can make them open up :) It's nice to see in these kinds of videos
Literally when I go to an Mexican restaurant.
Yup. Languages are great for openers
He left China because of covid. I wonder if he went back. Although it was very bad there, they did a very good job of handling it compared to most of the rest of the world. Most non Asian countries really struggled with it.
@@piillow34 you dont speak spanish
I'm just sitting here trying to wrap my mind around how you can read lips in Chinese... I can't even *hear* the tones correctly.
What? He wasn't lip reading, she was. She was speaking. Some desf people learn to speak in school to communicate easier with hearing people
@@JustLIkerapunzel I dont think they were talking about the guy.. the point is how hard it must be to read lips when someone's speaking chinese because the meaning of a word can be so different depending on the tone, which you can't detect without hearing.
@@Loriani93 they likely use context to understand what the word someone is trying to say is.
Also, the girl they were interacting with wasn't fully deaf. She stated she had hearing issues. It looks like several of the people she was with were fully deaf, but she clearly had at least some hearing ability.
@@KhronicD if she has limited hearing, it could be that she can hear tones better than the syllables, and that helps inform her lip reading ability.. I’m not deaf but I have auditory processing issues, I often can hear a persons tone clearly while they’re speaking, but can’t understand what they’re saying.
I love how chinese people are so surprised and happy when they see people that can understand and talk to them in their language. I'm learning mandarin, by the way.
thats just because our language is so hard that we don't even want to learn it and then we see a foreigner speaking we're surprised and happy
加油加油！
When you speak Chinese to chinese people it shows that you appreciate their culture and you are now in the family :]
That is the beauty of speaking with the people with their mother tongue. More than surprise, we really appreciate you for trying!
let me tell you something what do you think chinese langunge isn't difficult in the world? if you do ,,then you got the answer we dont see much white ,black people can speak chinese well and 马斯瑞 ‘s chinese is best of foreigners i've ever seen ，。。。。。
*Sees Chris' interaction with the girl:* What a cute, quirky girl! Man, that was some wholesome st-
*Sees same girl at another store:* 😳
Yet people forget that he is married and give him crap for not salivating over her like me.
@@pdrey100 yeah it’s honestly so gross how some of the commenters treat asian women and fetishize the shit outta them, and then question why Asians hate Americans and foreigners
Okay, I was Not expecting to see the cute short-haired girl a second time lol. Adorable.
Chris showed here that he can even speak sign language with a Beijing accent.
很在！
No tengo ni la menor idea de cómo llegué aquí, pero es ESTUPENDO el contenido. Apuesto que en poco tiempo crecerá enormemente 👌🏼👌🏼
Im just a brazillian guy that can speak spanish talking in english while 我学中文 , amo a globalizacao uheuheueuhe
Te recomiendo seguir tambien al que estaba con el, se llama brian y es argento jajaja , es un kgo de risa

@@ericgonzalez3643 y como es el canal
@@manu1310garcia en la descripcion del video esta, fijate el primer link que aparece
That girl with the braces is so cute omg
too bad he is married! lol
dude why are you looking at a baby like that
Chris' Italian was just perfect. He sounded like a guy from Milan.
Brian is the argentinian one
i know little italian, just basic things i learned from school, im from buenos aires argentina, and i can tell you that the "Español porteño" (the "port" argentinian spanish) has a lot of sound influence from italian. Its really italian sounding (this is NOT generalized through the country). Its possible that he achieves this natural sound because of the way our accent in spanish works here! Italian is a beautiful language with a really beautiful sound!
That has to be your next learned language- ASL.
Then ESL
@@England91 Guys, ASL should be your next language. Is it a challenge for you?
England 91..there is no ESL, it’s BSL British Sign Language.
Peter Brown There is also Signed Exact English.
She's speaking in (Mandarin?) and signing in ASL! That was so cool! I'm in tears. Gorgeous moment.
The encounter with the young lady who went to the University for the Deaf in the tea shop was a touching moment. The young lady at the end of the video did seem like she was following you. Who would have thought that she worked at both locations. Definitely made me chuckle.
University for the deaf... THE University for the Deaf to be exact: it is the only Uni in the world where Sign language is used to communicate and teach people in a variation of topics on Uni level...
Hearing impaired is a word combination only used by hearing people who has no clue about the subject.
@@shersmk90 I gotcha. I will correct it on top. My bad. It's good to be educated every day.:) You take care now.
It's also possible that the shop the young lady worked at is connected to that bakery like they are part of a large mall. Even if that wasn't the case, she knows those people at the bakery (otherwise she wouldn't be coming from the back of the store).
@@jovitadomingo8108 or she has two jobs...
@@jovitadomingo8108 - It seemed almost like she worked at the first place and then maybe her parents owned the second place, perhaps?
The moment when they met Liu Yudan, it was super heart warming! Honestly, she shouldn't even have apologized for her disability, "sorry that I can't speak well and you might not understand me". I feel more sorry that in our society we still are lacking in resources to make their life more easier and the fact that we don't even speak our country's SL, at least the basic stuff, how to read and make some words.
I asume she was just saying that cause it might sometimes be hard for chinese people to understand her, therefore she asumed for him as a non native chinese speaker it must be even harder
She was amazing actually speaking mandarin and signing ASL as well.
That takes polyglot to another level.
I actually think it would be awesome to watch these guys practice some sign language. I know it'd be hard to make a video out of probably but would be cool to pick up a language that kinda transcends spoken language barriers. No matter where you go in the world there'll be people signing.
I have never seen your videos before. I was quite fascinated by the fact that she was able to read your lips while you were speaking Chinese. That is NOT an easy language to do that with😳 She is amazing!!💗 I do think you both should try and learn ASL 😄 I have been using ASL to speak with my autistic children for many years. It was easier for them than using actual words. 👍 Really great video guys ❤️
Hopefully you still speak to them as well so they can get used to hearing and responding to people
@@agr0nianTV They are 20, 19 and 15 now (the older ones I used sign language with, my last 2 autistic children were verbal from day 1). We always spoke aloud as we used sign. That is traditinal..even for those speaking to the deaf so others can understand as well. 👍 All my children can speak well now.(this was over 15 years ago) They are much further ahead than most autistics who started at the same level, but unfortunately other health conditions have led to regressions and much more needed support care. Turns out, autism was the easy part 😄
the sentence structure is confusing me sometimes.
I wonder how well it lines up to spoken English if you're doing both at the same time
@@pfeffernuisance Do you mean ASL or Chinese? I can say that ASL does not line up with the sentence structure of spoken English. Some will sign that way(how English is spoken), but that is not how ASL is done.
@@breezeh1127 is there a way to learn ASL without a teacher. I can’t seem to find one and I really want to learn 😅
首先，我真的要笑死了。。。太搞笑了～～ 谢谢分享这个视频哇～～有点受宠若惊的感觉～～
其次，我想说明一下：聋哑人是一个有歧义的词。听不见代表不能说～”聋人“这个称呼对我们来说是很友好的。国内也会说”听障人“。但我们倾向说”聋人“或者”重听人（hard of hearing）“
就相当于英文里面的”deaf dumb“也是歧义词，所以现在很多人都说deaf。hearing impaired 这个词在美国也是有歧义的。
聋人是一个文化群体，有自己的语言，有自己的文化，有自己的行为。而不能只是关注在耳朵出问题了什么的这方面，这样会显得太狭隘。
还有作为聋人有一个特别的优势，我在Gallaudet University的英语学院遇到来自全球各地的聋人～大家都不会英文也不会美国手语American Sign Language (ASL)。大家必须一起学英文手语，自然就结识了来自全球各地的聋人朋友。每次放假经常去他们国家拜访，他们或找他们的朋友当我们的导游～也有朋友来我老家成都来观光的～～
聋人文化在美国和中国之间还是有点不同l。在美国，很多聋人对自己的聋人身份（deaf identity）很自豪。但是在中国并不是所有聋人对自我身份感到自豪。“聋哑人”称呼也是上了年纪的聋人习惯了的称呼，现在的年轻人都在努力宣传“聋人”这一词。我i希望大家能对我们聋人群体有一个全新的看法。
嘿嘿如果有问题可以尽管问～
妹妹好优秀啊 祝学习顺利～
哈喽Yudan！谢谢你的解释，涨知识了！我马上改！我那天跟你聊完之后还跟好多人都感叹我聊得很开心！如果你不介意的话，可以在instagram或者哔哩哔哩私信我。我还挺想多了解一下这个文化！希望你最近在华盛顿一切都顺利，身体健健康康！
@@LaomaChris 好哒～ 会在ig跟你私信～～ 你也要注意安全～希望你和家人都健健康康的，不愁吃喝～
@@hanzhao9916 谢谢你哇
加油，你是最棒的，你们都很棒！雄起！
i go to school with those girls
She was super nice!
This the side of youtube. I would like to stay on. So I'm leaving this comment here mark my spot.
If only we lived like this in all of America with peace and unity. So much hate right now 😪
I think the hatred is exaggerated on the news. You know how it is, bad news gets good ratings. Though it does seem like every loonie has come out of the woodwork.
La chica super stalker omg I'M IN TEARS 😂, she came up like: SURPRISE BITCH IT'S ME AGAIN. LMAOO
Que pedo
😂
i cried seeing how much joy you brought to the hard of hearing lady who came up to you guys in the cafe. This video really made my evening :-)
It’s rlly crazy how they were switching languages all the time, this guys make me to think to study more languages
Which do you know?
English, Spanish and I’m study some French and German but I’m not fluent at all 😂 I just have like a 3 months and the cv19 starts
¿Que tan complicado es el idioma aleman?¿Se parece un poco al ingles? jelp 😂
Marcial sub la comosicion gramatical es la misma
yeah i feel bad cause i only know a bit of english
When you went to Ding Tea in Rockville, my “little brother” was working the cash register. We’re Vietnamese but it was so funny seeing his reaction of you both.
哈哈哈 太牛了吧。parli benissimo l italianoooo. cavolo. Un cinrse perfetto
I just can't believe how good he is with languages. It's like he is a native person but of every country 😂, I wish I had those abilities with languages
I can clearly see that you have learned at least one. And I wouldn't be surprised if it's not even your native tongue. Learning language is all about repetition and practice. Get a language learning app and dedicate 15-30 minutes a day to it. You'll pick it up faster than you might think.
I had a friend tell me the same . She learned French, Italian and spanish and she said she literally cannot retain any of the information she learned. But for me I’ve learned Asl, Chinese and some Japanese and am pretty good at speaking them I’ve been told. But I wasn’t always good . It takes a lot of practice
Asmodeus learning a language is not about repetition and practice, its about input, output and learning from context. it doesn't matter how much practice and repetition you do if you arent comprehending what youre doing. children don't learn languages by repetition, and neither do adults. its the reason why most people dont get fluent or even at a talking level in a language when taking a class in highschool, because theyre all repetition based.
@@koo-core7274 So true! I "learned" Spanish from second grade through high school and it seemed like they were teaching us the same thing every year. I think the 'farthest' we got was ordering food, like, okay? I love the language, but I didn't have anyone to really communicate with. I picked up some more, working at a school. But it was more 'spanglish' than Spanish.
I was really confused seeing American Sign Language being used but she was also speaking mandarin. This is awesome!
their Italian are so good, im impressed! i studied french for like 8yrs in school and now i can barely make a sentence ... but yeah practise is the key! good job guys!
I love to listen to polyglots transition from one language into the next flawlessly. Its awesome and I wish more common. Glad I stumbled upon your channel.
I am this strong guy and this made me tear up! you guys handled that so well and were so sweet. Bless you guys.
很開心遇到你兩次哈哈哈 中文是真的6到一個不行 人超ncie又好聊天🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 希望美國疫情緩和後可以再看到你！

為何你可以見到他2次在不同店舖😂😂你很勤奮
你跟蹤了老馬，不如追蹤他的CZcams channel 吧 😂
That girl that recognized him and asked for a selfie...super cute!
I am always amazed by Brian's English. It's his first time in the U.S and his English is awesome and always has been.
If you were to learn another language, ASL would be a good one. Since you live in washington, I suspect there would be a larger population that uses ASL due to Gallaudet University being the only university in the world that is specifically designed for the deaf and hard of hearing. Would be really cool to see you go out and use ASL just as you go out and speak other languages. Knowing ASL will open you up to a whole new community that you probably never knew existed.
That deaf girls energy is amazing I would marry her
Simp.
Nice of you guys to take a picture with her. Love your videos. Keep them coming!
I know 8 language, including 3 foreign and still fell that's low considering the number of languages that are spoken here in India.
Currently learning ISL (Indian version of ASL).
And seeing peoples excitement like in your videos makes me want to learn even more.
Wow me encanta tu canal! me dieron muchas ganas de aprender mas idiomas, la gente se ve tan feliz cuando les hablas en su lengua materna ☺️! Saludos desde Chile!

Great video! That girl who recognized you was awesome! 太好了！
I'm a native English speaker, who learned ASL and now I want to know russian, German, Spanish & Cantonese
It's crazy how polite most of the people you talk to are, usually when I think of people being fans I typically have this idea that they'd instantly put a camera in your face but they usually talk to you & ask politely before assuming. Wonderful people.
That stalker girl is so cute. 😍
Ok so this has subtitles in English, Chinese and a bunch of Spanish dialects. Nice.
Yes,that right.
But
That it's spanish lenguage. Argentino!!! 🤔
WTF, the italian part is nice almost perfect. People like you are the people that amuse me the most. currently I can only speak Italian ( born language), english and a little bit of German. I´m also currently study japanese. love you guys.
Holy shit lol I was watching y'all go into the first store and was like "damn, that looks EXACTLY like the Asian bakery I go to but there's no way" and then you confirmed it in the description. Love to see it! (Also, on a more relevant note, I'm so impressed with the language skills! Goals fr fr)
I wonder how many will learn Chinese just to find cute girls now haha
She is super cute. I'm definitely interested in a Chinese language now.
yea im in
I'd say sign me up, but I have failed at learning four languages at a conversational level already.
I want to learn cthulian lol !
It's a damned good reason to learn a foreign language. Being able to speak to someone in their native language automatically creates a sense of closeness. It makes people more comfortable. And yes, that does indeed mean what you might think it means.
I was heartbroken when the woman from chengdu approached you guys. You both are amazing. Keep up the good spirit
Why is heartbroken?
因為連中文都說不好,然後翻成英文也很怪!

这一集真的好感动，太暖了。那个女生勇敢友善，两位小哥绅士友善，大大的赞！Awesome！！！
This video makes me so happy. The joy you spread but also the way you interact with people that recognise you is deep.

This was so sweet. I love seeing how happy people get when you speak their languages.
Awesome vid Chris! BTW great smile!☺️❤️
Great video to lift the spirits with all the crp going on in the world. Keep it up guys
Yes, I'm agree with the first lady, she's spoke a perfect english, as an american.
You two are amazing, this is the first video I stumbled on in my current rabbit-hole, and I was getting choked up when you were recognized in the first part. Your kind and accepting nature is awesome... Feel-good moments all around in this video, keep it up, you're doing good things.

This is great - I have been working with a friend with hearing impairment for the past four years. I always wanted to learn ASL but never found a place that was affordable. My coworker took the time to teach me every day how to sign and little by little I was able to carry a communication. As of today, we have been good friends for the past seven years and I am still learning new ways on how to repay my friend back for taking the time to teach me. Thank you for sharing!
Me encanta la reacción de la señora de Hunan!!! por sus expresiones se ve que se sintió feliz y orgullosa de que visiten su region y sepan de su comida!! good job guys !! Saludos desde Mexico

You should learn sign language. I'm sure there are many people who want to see you *speak* sign language!
Use. not speak. Sign language isn't a language you can speak because speaking is something you do with your mouth. Sign language is a language you know and use.
LoL，it is SO HARD.
There’s also so many different sign languages it’s crazy!
Love the channel, thumbs up.
Amazing seeing kids learning different languages. I love it.
Tengan muchas bendiciones muchachos..
Sigan aprendiendo. Thats the way of human understanding on a deeper level.
FYI: “Deaf” or “Hard of Hearing” not “hearing impaired” any more than you are “deaf impaired.”

This is awesome!
Deaf people generally don’t like to be described as “hearing impaired.” They prefer “deaf” or “hard of hearing.” But your video was fun to watch.
Glynette is this true? If I were deaf I would really care because to me they all mean the same thing, but obviously I’m not so I don’t know any better lol
@@tdawgdawgonson3560 They don't mean the same thing. Hearing impaired says that there is something that needs to be fixed, but the Deaf don't need to be fixed because they aren't broken in the first place. They also don't say that they lost hearing but that they gained deaf. It is very rude to use the term hearing impaired to decribe the deaf or hard of hearing.
@@Zottelchaos Oh, thanks for the info.
