Korone is Amazed That Overseas Fans Always Understand Her Unique Explanations [Hololive]

[@Slayer_Jesse]

For someone who "doesn't speak english", Korone has an incredible ability to make herself understood.

[@user-fg9oy3uo3h]

While Korone doesn’t speak proper English, she can somehow interpret what Kiara said, no mistakes made.

[@gamerk316]

@@zeiruscop She certainly knows *how* to use the words she knows to convey meaning, and this is a great highlight of that. That's a skill many (heck, most) people struggle with, even in their primary language.

[@dingusuhum]

she's such proof that you don't have to be good at a language to communicate, you just have to be willing to try

[@Xanderj89]

I mean, she definitely studied her ass off learning english for a long time, and I’d say being able to communicate is the entire metric for your language skill being ‘good’

[@Kino280]

Alternatively, if the goal is to communicate and you do it well, doesn’t that mean you are good at the language?

[@azamonra]

It seems to me she's been subconsciously learning English, like just now she learned a new word without even thinking about it. Her English only stream is disjoined but she maintained it for a long time and chose words that conveyed her meaning with little thinking time. I remember a compilation clip of every time she said "Happy Birthday" showing her pronunciation steadily improving. I also remember she noticed the grammar was wrong on an English phrase when she was playing the Telephone game but just had to roll with it. I was so weirdly proud of her at that moment.

[@Aryasvitkona]

Yeah absolutely. People get anal about doing things right when learning a language, or when westerners listen to other people speaking English. You don't need to be perfect, you just need to be able to be understood. "I eat juice" may not be *right* but it's able to be understood. Yeah sure the correct would be "I am drinking some juice" but if your goal is to communicate, the former is more than a passing grade.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Except Ko'one _is_ good. Notice how she doesn't speak incomprehensible nonsense.

The beautiful thing about Korone is that behind all of the vtuber shtick and internet culture she really is just a good old fashion entertainer. OBS gives her a play set and she can engage anyone at any level from any nation and still bring home the feeling of just being in the company of a person who knows how to entertain her audience.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

Heck, if anything Korone is _the_ quintessential vtuber. Notice how she is the only notorious chuuba that actively and frequently plays around with her model even mid-stream and uses it for gags and bits. The only other one I can think of is Marine when she uses the tip of her hat to point at stuff on the screen, but that's a pale imitation of how hard Ko'one goes.

[@ruweee4443]

@@DinnerForkTongue Miko plays around her Model pretty well too. I think Korone, Nene and Miko are the best at utilizing their Vtuber Models. It makes it more engaging and realistic.
