My mom can speak this I can only speak mandarin but this is so nostalgic to listen to it’s like my moms saying it

[@TaigiTWeseDiplomat--Formosan]

For more depth stuff, definitely got to check "A'Ióng Tâigí 阿勇台語"

[@emmachapman-lin2359]

The have you eaten is also used as a kind of a goodbye/goodnight/how are you (I'm not sure which as it's been a while since I asked my Ama and Akong) but essentially whenever I asked them how to translate one of those things from english to Taiwanese they said the kind of equivalent was jia ba bue- which might explain why the person waved while they said it.

[@MusicWithWW]

I can understand most of the phrases. My parents come from Tong‘an Xiamen (廈門同安) in the Southern Min 閩南 region, so we have a different accent. Here are some: 1. 你很漂亮 - lih jin sui 3. 沒關係 - bue yao gin 4. 你好 - lih ho 6. 你要去哪裏 - lih berh kih doh lo 8. 你吃飽了嗎？- jia ba a berh 9. 你很帥 - lih jin yan dao 12. 謝謝 - gam sia

[@eliseeng1709]

Same here! It was my Angong Anma who come from Xiamen, but I am trying to relearn the language.

[@飼虻兒]

這邊我試著給個正字供參考 1.汝真姝 3.沒要緊/無會要緊/未要緊 4.汝好 6.汝欲去逃路 8.食飽矣無 9.汝真沿投/汝真緣投(不過緣應該是不唸做yan) 12.感謝

omg I used to hear wa tia bo all the time before my grandma died

[@fiestadancers]

Do sia! Rare to find Taiwanese video. Mahalo Nui!

[@giuliaamendola9890]

Taiwanese are the nicest people. I often hear old people in the country say “bo ah! Bo ah!” sounds in context like “no way” maybe??????

[@mlorpf]

When she said "bo i ding" it sounded like Vietnamese to me. Taiwanese Hokkien sounds so beautiful to me, I want to learn it :)

[@zhouxbaejinyoung6615]

Happy New Year is very close to Mandarin

[@ao5468]

I understand all of these as Singaporean Chinese. we learn dialect from our parent

[@kubes8388]

[@johnorsomeone4609]

Please make more videos! This was great.

[@MoreFormosa]

excellent ! thanks for posting this helpful language video

[@Immortal_CelestialBeing]

thank you

[@rarelymarilyn]

Wait I thought pai se was embarrassing? I’ve always heard my mom say that when she argues with my dad, so kinda confused about the translation there.

[@areitu]

Sort of- as far as I can tell, it implies you’ve embarrassed yourself. It’s sort of like a combination of “excuse me” an”I’m sorry” and doesn’t translate to English 1.1 You can say it if you bump into someone on accident, or “paiseh, i don’t understand you”

[@rarelymarilyn]

@@areitu ohhh alright! thank you for correcting me

[@aiyuyan]

Is it the equivalent of 不好意思?

[@MrTraveller.]

Kinda different from what i heard here from other taiwanese people.

[@ixc6732]

tbh it'll always b diff depending on the area

[@areitu]

@@ixc6732 yeah it can be. I never hear my family say “li hou” for hello but they’ll use other words phrases or greetings like “jia ba bweh” or “gai tsah” (good morning) instead
