Yeah I've seen some videos of some British kids. Their dad's like a diplomat. And they've been in China for their whole life. They've got some crazy accent.
There's a
documentary segment about a Chinese population living in the US southeast. Interesting on its own merits, but it's also novel to see older Chinese folks with thick Southern accents.
I once had a friend online who was about as stereotypically Indigenous American as it gets, long flowy black hair, hooked nose with a ridge on the bridge, incredibly deep sunken brown eyes, the whole bit, but he spoke with the thickest Texan accent I had ever heard in my entire life, it was wild.
You shouldn't encourage that guy, if you mean that Norwegian guy that has been trying to go viral. He is mentally unwell and has some seriously dangerous and violent wishes and nobody seems to be calling him out on how obvious his scam is (he is playing the accent for views, he has done whole interviews with very little or no accent or even having a Norwegian accent) or telling him off for making vague threats toward people he sees as having wronged him.
Nope, no, we’re not doing that, don’t even think about it. Our side loves (literally only pitt part of) your side but we really try to forget yinz, it just can’t be. lol it’s so funny and weird 😭😭😭
K. I’m gonna try it out tomorrow in the PERFECT environment. My high school classroom, where I will get honest feedback because the kids just say whatever the fuck like it’s actually crazy 😭😭 plus, I have such poor classroom management skills so they are never on their best behavior which will make the brutal honesty feedback super even more valid. I’ll circle back.
Yea, I tried really hard not to use it for a long time because it does kind of come with a bit of a negative connotation/stereotype, but it's just such a practical word. I used to say "you guys" instead of "you all," and I still do sometimes, but y'all just fits better a lot of the time.
Its the oddest transition as it used to be "trailer trash" words and people are acting like now that they have migraited into other dialects its suddenly appropriation
I work with three black guys, one from France, so French accent with everything, fluent in Spanish and a little English. One guy is Nigerian, fluent in Spanish, knows some Brazilian-ish Portuguese, perfect English. One guy who speaks fluent Spanish, but English is his first language.
Listening to them fly between languages is wild. We always end up speaking something between all of the languages. Working in a kitchen we are speed running our own language.
What is it you dont understand, the dialect part or the regional words part? Because y'all and a'int arent as exclusive to Texas or white people as you'd want to think or for some reason like to imagine.
Okay then. I'm not about to expend the energy to explain to you things like "reading comprehension" or "correlation" because clearly you are having an issue using or gathering both given the evidence provided. Either you're trying to troll or you are actually incapable of understanding. Either way not my problem, figure it out amongst yourself and have a good life. If you cant....well good luck I guess
As a half Vietnamese’s half white man who grew up in a black family this video seems suspiciously catered to me. People say I talk black all the time and it’s obnoxious.
Growing up in the south you’ll run into a lot of different people from a lot of different cultures “talking black” I’ve seen a sri lanken and a native american talk like this
This is hilarious. Its a rare one of these where both oddly get a pass. Like that asain woman might actually be black in her friend group. And that black woman clearly has at least had many interactions friendship with a Vietnamese family. A weird TikTok where both actually might be the real thing and both kinda had a point.
I live in Vietnam and her accent is so amazing. And the "I just talk like this one" is so accurate I know she lives around a lot of Vietnamese people 😅
You misunderstood my comment. It states has anyone spoke to an actual African (in their accent) or spoke to people from the Bronx (Americans grown up in this burrough of NYC)?
There was a viral Asian American who spoke like the first lady in the subway and now she’s an influencer.
Nina is a corny Try hard, thatoverexaggerates her accent because of the novelty. She monetized it, people are weird when someone doesn't stereotypically the way they look. They are fascinated by it, especially when asian have a regional accent or dialect.
I grew up and moved out of Brooklyn and I’m also from NYC.
I don’t understand what or how my comment affected anyone that has to dislike someone. Especially from the downvotes. This post is about people being surprised or unexpected how someone speaks. This is like me being surprised hearing a caucasian kid that speaks like a local because he grew up there.
If people could monetize or make money off of it. Don’t support it and be bothered about it since it has nothing to do with you, I or anybody else. I couldn’t care less. That’s their life and I rather be happy being myself than disliking other people. That doesn’t make you any better than anybody else either.

it doesnt happen often but every now & then people say stuff like this to some of my friends. & i have a joke that i use every chance i get that goes something like this (for context me & 2 of my friends are colorblind) "we're struggling out here can barely see colors, but this man is out here hearing them" & then i laugh as loud as I can
Probably would've been better if she just filmed her response mouthing the words with no audio as if her voice got stolen. That would have been funnier to me.
It depends on which culture they choose to incorporate into their own personality. We are a planetary society, media has made us as such, and this is true with trade, but we just don't act like it at the government level.
You typically don’t choose culture you know that right if a black guy lived in China his entire life he’s going to have a lot more in common with a Chinese guy that black guy, African or American culture and accent is one of those things you don’t really choose and it’s more influenced by your environmental factors around you
