The first 1,000 people to use this link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: skl.sh/xiaoman... Today me and my friend Evan read Chinese newspapers in the park in Chinese, and Chinese people were shocked to see us reading in Chinese. Speaking Chinese as a foreigner is one thing, but seeing non-Chinese people reading is arguably more impressive to a Chinese person as reading in Chinese is really difficult. We definitely are not perfect in reading but we gave it a shot!
If you’re curious, we hung out in New York City’s Columbus Park, which is a center of Chinese culture in New York City’s Chinatown.

Like every Oba-san. Asians are obsessed with Study and hard work. My chinese buddy is a fitness instructor and runs a super successful chain of gyms, and his parents still cant accept his lifestyle and career. They mock him all the time and call him a jock and a meathead(chinese equivalent terms).. They are so brainwashed and sheepish. It annoys me people cant accept change and different lifestyle choices that go against the norm. Of course this isnt just Asian people.

It's always this good feeling of how humans can be nice and happy with you when you share part of yourself with them. When you talk in their language, they open their hearts. And this is so beautiful. Amazing videos, Man!

I think I can speak for most of us English speaking people when I say I am envious of your ability to speak so smoothly in another language, it’s quite inspiring! A lot of us misinterpret Chinese people and their culture simply because we cannot comprehend them. I can see why a lot of Mandarin speaking people enjoy watching your videos, as you’re showing off many parts of them which the average American does not get to see. Very happy to have found your content, it makes me genuinely happy and that is something very rare nowadays. The joy shown from the girl when she found out you were Xiaoma was so lovely! Keep being you dude, you rock!

I hope to one day learn mandarin too! Big ups everybody ❤️

Hi Xiaoma, I was really happy to find you on KZbin! You see, I was born in Malaysia & moved to Seattle in 1982. Since the move, I lost 4 of my spoken languages (Hokkien, Hakka, Malay and Mandarin). By the way the only non English language I can read, write & speak was Malaysian. My Mom (who passed away from Covid) sent me to a catholic school because she didn’t want me to experience the hardship that she lived through. It’s been 42 years now and I have a question. How would I achieve the level I used to have in my spoken Mandarin & Cantonese in the shortest amount of time. Can you please help? Thanks, Cliff Lee

Honestly, if you used to speak it, I imagine you would pick it back up fairly quickly. Honestly, just do what he does. Find the local spots that actually have owners/workers that speak those languages, and just go have lunch there every day. Just be friendly with the people there, laugh about your situation with them as struggle to speak whatever language. I don't know how old you were when you left, but I would bet within a month you would see a VAST improvement! I learned spanish because I worked at a gas station in texas, where half our customers were mexicans who would come in and speak in broken english. I just asked them different words every day, until I could speak broken spanish to them. Definitely a great way to make friends you cant really understand, and learn to speak a language you cant really understand. Just gotta jump in! (or in your case, jump back in)

Evan trolling people is great. It makes me wonder if sarcasm is not as big / a thing in Chinese? I worked with an (older) Indian man and he just did have the concept for it at all when we started working together. I taught him though, and it was hilarious. Like a TV show character, he would say something sarcastic and just stare at you with this face, big ol' grin, eyes wide. The best.

I went to China my senior year of highschool and fell in love with the culture, people, and of course the real Chinese food. I always wanted to learn Japanese or Chinese, but being a highschool student not knowing what to do with myself I never had the confidence to pursue it. Whenever I hear a foreign language I just listen. The world is beautiful

That's a good point you brought up at the end. Just because people natively speak English and only English doesn't mean they are good at it or know what every single word means or how to spell every single word perfectly.

Ok, I've watched quite a few of your videos and you always do your sponsor segments in STUY Town right near where my grandmother lived her whole life and was a second home to me. I sadly don't get back there much as he passed away a few years ago, but it's just awesome to see you in a place that has such reverence for me. Thanks for doing what you do!

I’m in Shanghai and trying to work on my verbal language (still early stages haha). This is pretty inspiring. Locals are really impressed when non-Chinese can respond in even basic sentences and it’s very rewarding to have conversations with them. They’re very warm once they feel the language gap is bridged a bit. I could understand a lot of what was being said without looking at the subtitles. I have no plans to learn how to read mandarin cos I’ve always said it’s too difficult but again, this was awesome 👏🏽 I took down some notes. Great videos.

There really is a such a condition that exists but very rare. xenoglossia (/ˌziːnəˈɡlɒsiə, ˌzɛ-, -noʊ-/) and sometimes also known as xenolalia, is the supposedly paranormal phenomenon in which a person is able to speak, write or understand an unlearned language they could not have acquired by natural means.
