American Guy Speaking Fluent Mandarin & Cantonese Makes People Feel at Home

[@chenjerry4543]

语言真的是一门艺术，从刚开始这位大姐的谨慎拘谨，到后来的眉开眼笑。这么快的一个转变就是因为老马在用她家乡的语言和她交流，这使得人与人之间一下子就拉近了距离。尤其是远在异国的这些人们会感到些许的熟悉与温暖。

[@chenjerry4543]

注意到一个细节，老马的手机系统都是中文。为你点赞！其中在中国生活的很多博主，他们的普通话都非常好，但他们用的手机以及一些其他产品时还都是英文。 然而这也是学习一种学习外语的方法，我在学英文的时候也会这样做。手机系统全部设置成英文，电影，美剧，甚至动画片，综艺节目全看英文的，不会单词就去查阅。 没有语言环境就去创造一个，这样沉浸式的学习会让自己进步的更快。

Thanks for the fun video Laoma, I'm teaching myself Mandarin, its been about a year. It's been amazingly fun so far. I'd love to be fluent like you!

[@AlexBizzar]

This last weekend I went to the Mall of America to "Relaxing Massage," a *family-owned* Chinese massage business that has been around for many years at that mall (even when some of the big brands come and go). I went there because I'm learning Mandarin, and wanted to hear and try speaking to someone in real life for the first time ever. I asked my massage lady where she's from and she said Hong Kong. I mentioned that I picked up a little Cantonese but was mainly learning Mandarin, but then right away she went full-blown Cantonese XD I tried to say that I know A LITTLE of it. So I said "Hello, my name is Alex," and "Nice to meet you." None of which she was impressed by. It didn't help that my face was buried in that hole, but overall it was an odd experience. I could recognize words to get the overall general sentence/topic, but I was so panicked that I managed to forget over a year's worth of Mandarin, so I was panicking, stuttering, and going "uuuuh" so much. There's a lot more to it, but it was an awkward first start, and I think she thought I was crazy... But hey, I'm going to put my head down and keep learning so that next time she *doesn't* think I'm some dolt :D

[@OftenAlwaysFresh]

Strong accent in Canto. Pretty impressed. Am half Chinese and half German and finally bucked up and really started learning German again, my mum spoke to me in Canto throughout my childhood so I can speak but never knew how to write... Definitely making me wish I knew the written theory though!

[@mpforeverunlimited]

Written is the easiest part. Just get hsk flashcards and there are practice readers to get you used to reading. At least for mandarin it's pretty easy imo

老馬學三個月就有呢個成績非常好! 題外話, 千其唔好諗住用廣東話拼音學廣東話, 因為「廣拼」從來無建立一個標準既拼音體系, 搞到「一字多拼」... 最快學廣東話既方法, 係睇「周星馳」, 尤其係如果識睇中文字, 或者有普通話底, 特別容易。

It is a beautiful thing when someone wants to learn another language. It shows you are a open-minded person and willing to accept other cultures. Your Cantonese is very good.
