Dating a Malaysian vs Dating an American

[@eynta2]

I'm American. My husband is Malaysian. We have been married for 21 years with 2 kids. We can totally relate and have a million experiences we'll have to share with you some day. 😂

[@KumaarFamily]

Wow, 21 years!! I would love to hear all your stories. 😃

[@eynta2]

@@KumaarFamily we are living in Malaysia now. It was quite the culture shock. But now Malaysia is my home. How about the small expressions like 'off the light' instead of 'turn off the light'. 😅 My husband's first breakfast, I told him my mom was making biscuits and gravy. He replied, 'I'll just have bread with my gravy'. Biscuit is entirely a different concept.

I'm a malay Malaysian and I lived in Europe and had an American girlfriend. Once her family invited me for dinner and I met her dad (for the 1st time) and I was like "good evening, nice to meet u Mr XXX" and he was like "No please, call me Jack". I felt so uncomfortable because he kept insisting me calling him by his first name. Later on when I meet on him on occasion (we lived in a not so big town), I still call him Mr XXX. My asian dna just wouldn't allow me to call him Jack haha

I am married to a Brit. Malaysia's English may be British-based, but we still have many things we both find weird because Malaysia's English also tend to be very influence by American English via Hollywood. Also... Brits do use lots of their own slangs and phrase.

[@farouqomaro598]

Yes... we are exposed to a lot of American television. My kids speak more of American than British. Some of the terms they use are different from what we used as kids... like gas station, trash can, gasoline. I guess American television has a big impact on our English.

[@evreaha]

For me, I had to learn both accents because I'm more influenced to American English rather than British English. Most of my friends use British English and I had so many miscommunications at the first time. So I had no choice but to learn both 😅

Logesh also cracks me up coz he is a total Malaysian. Both of you complement each other and I believe gratitude being blessed to be together as life partner. Love you both and keep the videos coming, appreciate to listen to Rachel more as it's fun to hear from the other side (me being Malaysian) how she feels life as American with a Malaysian spouse. Hahaha ... Kaypoh!!! Love your videos and family❤️❤️

[@KumaarFamily]

Rachel here! Thanks so much for your very kind and thoughtful comment! We’ll have to do more videos like this soon ❤️

My colleague said this to me "Are you having bun in the oven" I was like...huh? (Bila pulak aku masak roti ni?) 🤣

[@KumaarFamily]

Hahaha! That is so funny!

[@aszlanselamat4687]

I'm a Malaysian and I have my dinner early. 8-9pm would be my supper.

[@KumaarFamily]

That’s another thing we didn’t really mention, Americans don’t have supper just dinner!

[@nuruddin1991]

Then we got our "dunch" dinner at midnight... It's like lunch.... but 12 o'clock.... In the midnight... At the mamak.... Roti telur goyang.... Dang, i need it now!

[@unwiselane]

My tea time is around 3-4pm and my dinner is around 6-7pm. Gives you time to digest food if you have an early 10pm bedtime

[@richieoon]

Yo this video is LEGIT man, you guys are awesome. I'm a Malaysian who's been working in America for quite some time and everything mentioned in this video is FACTS. Subscribed immediately!

[@thatgirl6158]

I think the reason for the late dinner is because the majority of Malaysians are Muslims and we fit our lunch and dinner time with our praying hours. We have our 4th prayer time around 7-8pm therefore we only have dinner after that. And sometimes even later after performing our 5th prayer around 8.30-9pm. So it is easier if we perform our prayers first and only then eat so that you won't feel like your stomach is bloated while performing the prayers since it mostly uses physical movements.

Hi Logesh Just wondering - how do you address your in-laws? "Dad"? "Mom"?, or call them by their first name? Cos I have a friend married to an English; he'd address both his in-laws by their first names. For me (and I believe Asians too), I'd feel awkward and even disrespectful if I were to do that. Conversely, how does Rachel address her in-laws? Sorry, don't mean to pry. Just curious about this particular cultural 'baggage'.

[@KumaarFamily]

That’s a really great question! Logesh refers to Rachel’s parents as “Mom and Dad” and Rachel calls Logesh’s parents “Amma and Appa”. But you’re right, we do know a lot of Americans that call their in-laws by their first name!

[@azlandin9911]

I also encounter a different culture where i am a Johorean and my wife is a Perakian. There are some differences also especially in terms of food and some of the of the cultural differences. But after 20 years of marriage, like Kumars, mostly we go to the middle ie compromises on almost everything... Well done Kumars

[@surayahanaifah5659]

Both of you beautiful couple n love watching all your videos...i dont even skip the ad

[@KumaarFamily]

So glad to hear you enjoy our videos! Thanks so much!

[@y4n123]

Hahaha, this is great! I'm Malaysian but I don't really live like one, I relate more to Rachel's perspective, i.e. punctual, PDA, have early dinner & using idioms when talking to friends.

[@SaffiyahNana]

One of my friends was joking and said "I'm just pulling your leg." Me be like "What do you mean? Do you want to pull my leg?" haha. And the friend burst into laughter and said "Joking lahhhh ngok." damn, 😂

[@KumaarFamily]

Hahahaha! Sounds like something Logesh would say!

The older generation of Malaysian some of them do speak british English, but not heavy accent like the English people. They speak clearly and pronounce the words correctly and written English is good. But the younger msian generation now speak mixed English and a lot of slang like American english as in Msia we have lots of American tv movies, entertainment, sitcoms, documentary influence. Msia so speak mixed English, maybe our kind of English with local words. If I speak proper English with British English pronunciation, they reply back and say, ohh you are speaking london.... He he...

[@deevithanetto1753]

This family is soooo amazing... their videos are so interesting

[@hayatimohdradzi6889]

Very true...diff culture diff norm but both of u adapt to it

[@KumaarFamily]

It’s been fun to learn how to live together with our differences!

[@omaranagam7215]

God bless you and your families, love your simplicity, keep up

[@asrulz]

If dating a Malaysian, if you want to meet at 6pm, make sure to set the appointment at least at 5pm. Bro Logesh.. In future make a cekodok for tea time snacking while doing some video talks like this video.

[@KumaarFamily]

Logesh actually did make cekodok pisang (Rachel loves it!) in our Merdeka video, but it’s a little hard to tell ;)

[@madkhaliqfarhan]

Weh, lelaki dan perempuan Malaysia sama je! Dua2 lambat...

[@tasnimmohammad760]

Can you guys do the part 2 of this topic..? So fun and funny to see how different between Malaysian vs American culture

[@KumaarFamily]

Maybe in the future! Let us know if there’s other things about dating a Malaysian or American we could add!

[@saranair8485]

Kami tetap anak Malaysia Kumaar. But whatever it is ...be it Malaysian or American we can adapt to the culture, food, beliefs etc if understanding plays an important role. U guys nailed it!!!😍👌Am l right or am l right?😊

[@KumaarFamily]

You are right Sara! Malaysians are very adaptable 😀
