It is amazing that being a mixed Chinese-Romanian girl like Emma brought up in ENGLAND can speak Mandarin with reasonable fluency. She doesn’t have many opportunities to practice except with her mother or grandmother. It is a great achievement compared to many overseas Chinese in many countries. She is a very intelligent girl.

As long as she didn’t grow up in America. Our language training is not great. I grew up speaking English with a bit of Cantonese, but gradually over time spoke only English. She was obviously using the immersive method, being around family that spoke those languages helped impress these languages over time. It reminds me of Roger Federer who can also speak several languages.

I was surprised by Emma's true fluency in Chinese, especially after hearing her scripted couple of sentences after the US Open. When she speaks informally its rather natural and you can tell she's been raised with Chinese speakers around her. That said, there's still a strong English style of sentence structure in the spoken Chinese. If Emma dedicates a year to Chinese training, I'm sure she can nail down the fluency.

You just do not have a mean spirited bone in your body, Jessie. I so love that you took a minute at the beginning of the video to explain that your comments are sincerely given to help people hear Chinese on an intuitive level, thus helping them learn. What can I say... You are simply a genuinely warm human being. This speaks well not only for your own family upbringing, but also speaks well of Chinese people in general. As we say in English, "you do them proud". Keep these great videos coming! 😇😇😇

I'm a native English speaker but went to school in France for a year. When I arrived there I was more or less fluent after five years learning the language. At least I understood everything people were saying and could communicate anything I wanted to say. Even going in fluent it took months before I could think in French. I had people give me strange looks because they understood what I said but I just phrased it in a way no native speaker would.

Emma speaks Chinese much better than she speaks Romanian, and there is a logical explanation. At a very young age, when they start talking, most of the children stay longer with their mothers than with their fathers and more than likely Emma's mother only spoke Chinese when Emma's father was not at home or when they had some sensitive "girly stuff" to talk about. 😁 Honestly, I don't know how much Emma learned to speak Romanian from her father, but I think she learned more when she came to stay at her grandma in Bucharest. I think Emma understands almost everything she hears spoken in Romanian but she doesn't speak very fluently because she lacks practice and I bet she hasn't come to Romania for a long time. Something is very interesting, because Emma is, from a theoretical and practical point of view, an English language speaker who can perfectly learn two more languages, Chinese and Romanian. These three languages have totally different fundamental structures, and Chinese and Romanian are two languages very difficult to learn ...

From what I've seen, she isn't fully fluent in Romanian, but this is because of too little practice... I'm sure she has the general knowledge of what she wants to say and what the words are, but her pronunciation and structure of speech could use more work. In my opinion, she has a pretty heavy English accent in Romanian but it's cute and incredible that she could learn or at least understand such different languages and cultures (Chinese, English and Romanian). There should be more videos of her right now on KZbin because she just played in a tournament in Romania...

It's hugely impressive despite her parents origins. She is only young and we here in the UK are renowned for being terrible at learning new languages both in our education system or as an adult. Most average Brits can't speak any 2nd language. Our language is used in most parts of the world so it is never deemed necessary to learn others. I would like to learn other European languages and I hope future generations try harder at it. Emma is inspirational.

I currently have no interest in starting Chinese right now. I’m learning American Sign Language and Japanese at the moment and getting ready to take a round of many tests to become certified in interpreting. Some day I will revisit Chinese. But I keep watching your videos and I stay subscribed because I like this casual style of video editing and intimate teaching space you’ve created. It feels very natural and easy to understand. Also, I really like your relationship with your husband. I like your cute relationship where you will impromptu yell across the house to get his attention for quick Cantonese assistance. It feels more natural! I will stay subscribed and eventually come back when I start leaving Chinese… someday.

The phrase "I am really happy but we won" is also not correct in English. I think at that point she may have been thinking about what to say next but lost her train of thought and instead of saying something like "My opponent played very well but in the end we won so I am very happy" she seems to have jumbled things together in her brain and the result was using an incorrect grammar.

This is probaly typical for children growing up bi- or tri-lingual. Our children grow up in Germany. They mostly hear French from their mother and grand parents, but German from multiple sources. They also learn English in kindergarten - sometimes British English, sometimes US English. I learnt British English in School and then spent 10 years in the US. A lot of people guessed that I was Australian. Probably not because my accent sounds Australian, but because they couldn't make sense of this combination of British, US and German influences.

Not all Chinese speak Mandarin all the time according to the standard pronunciation either. They learn the standard ones in schools after repeatedly corrected by the teachers. So, even after they grow up, outside of work or formal occasion, when they are with friends and family, they switch back to the less standard pronunciations.

So my Chinese partner has had insults even threats up until to now. As she cared for a very ill & mad older English man for 13 years 24/7 in his small flat she has suffered mental health problems. These things are extremely frightening & difficult for her. I note since Emma has become a darling, deserved, of the crowds, this hostility has slackened. Emma is a great tennis player too from getting to the 4th round at Wimbledon and with a unique achievement in winning the US Open from being a qualifier--and at 18!

Maybe what she meant was “I’m happy (but of course I’m happy) because we won”. Not sure how that would translate to mandarin

So is non-retroflex normal for Shenyang? When she started talking I thought she must be from the south.

Yeah Shenyang accent is very special, not all retroflex sounds are gone when they speak, some are still there, and there's erhua like most Northern accents.

Fun fact. Raducanu actually had a brother named Anaconda. Unfortunately he passed away due to snake bite, possibly self-inflicted.

I'm glad you mentioned scripted. You see a lot of languages videos where people say "wow" to someone's language ability but it is scripted. To further evaluate how good it is, you need to see them speaking unscripted. Emma's Chinese is really good given her learning situation. It is always best to get a native speaker to evaluate how good your foreign language skills are. It doesn't matter what level you are, you should always aim to improve more and more.

She probably doesn't have the accent for proper nouns like US Open, because she's only ever heard that spoken with a standard Mandarin accent. Whereas actual Chinese words like disappoint she learned in her original accent/dialect so the habit is hard to break.
