It's because in china we have a lot of different dialects, i know of 7 but there might be more, that sounds different and with completely different pronunciations, the written words are the same for everyone though. i.e. 我吃米饭 which basically means: I eat rice In mandarin, basically the chinese everybody knows and that is used in the video is pronounced: wo che me fun In cantonese which is I think the chinese used in Hong Kong it is pronounced: wo sick my fun And lastly fuzhounese, which is the dialect my parents use and is arguably the hardest and rarest dialect in china, it is pronounced: Woy xie me buong These are my go to examples when my friends ask me why the language my parents speak is so much different from Jackie chan movies I grew up and live in germany so that might be inaccurate bc I'm pretty shit at chinese but that's the broad reason why chinese television always have subtitles on, not everyone in china can understand mandarin, it is teached at schools but not everyone in china goes to school and elderly still have a hard time understanding mandarin when their native dialect isn't mandarin

Uninformed statements like "the China Virus" made global news and gave foreign countries a horrible impression of the average American's perspective on multinational relationships. I personally still believe that most Americans are kind and welcoming, regardless of what region of America you're from. There will always be extremists that threaten the reputation of those they claim to represent, but I've found that many people you think are racist are simply misinformed or misunderstood, and are open to change once they realize their mistake.

It helps bring the spotlight to their countless atrocities, but unfortunately, Trump said it which means everyone who loves him cheers it on, and everyone who hates him calls it racism.

It's hard to imagine how amazing it is to have such a long event in the focus interview of CCTV1 in China!

Always Amazing! Your pronunciation is so smooooth.

It's bby Xiaoman! Who would've known? It's really neat to see you were on TV like that.

You are so inspiring!

Dude this is so awesome. Love seeing the XiaoMa backstory!

Really interesting to see the reference to classical Chinese sayings given the recent feedback from the teachers!

Such an inspiration!

The lady is so sweet. I love her final speech and hope that China will find its way back from the pit of fascism

China is where she is today using whatever system they are using. Don't spread your fake "American bring freedom" bullshit here

This is great, thanks for sharing! This reminded me that the first time I encountered this language was at a sleepover at my Chinese friend's house when were were maybe 10, and there was a Chinese news channel on with Chinese subtitles. I was distracted by it, and I remember watching it for a minute, and I remember turning to my friend's parents and asking, "Why do the subtitles not match what they're saying?" I don't know how the fuck I picked that up, but that was when I got my first lesson, and they told me about how people who can read the same text may not be able to understand eachother's spoken version of it, because of different dialects/languages. I can't say I've ever actively studied Chinese of any kind, but It's very cool and fascinating. I like hearing it and hearing about it and Chinese culture. Thanks again for making this, much love from one language nerd to another.

Nice things said at the end, i hope people will have it stuck in their memories

Imagine if Americans have a Chinese guy on Tv, and are amazed on how he speaks English. It would be considered racist.

I am convinced it's racist to say racist in the U.S. at this point.

Wrong thought and phrase to utter if you're goal or dream is to learn and speak another language: "I'm waiting until..."

@@JAKIZAK How much time per day can you find to study a language to begin the long journey? Two 15 minute blocks per day? One 20, 25, or 30-minute block? How about 10 minutes a day to get the ball rolling? I say this as a master procrastinator who finally, after decades, finally learned how to get over that kind of thinking. Putting things off until the "perfect time" is a fantasy, an excuse and suggests that one is not as serious about one's purported goal as one claims. Nothing happens by saying "One day I'll start.." The number of things we spend our time doing for 15 or 20 or 30 minutes each day that could be swapped for the things we don't have time for, is substantial when you look at it. It's about priorities, making time, motivation, and commitment.

Learning a language doesn't happen overnight. Maybe for some quick greetings lol Xiaoma is my top inspiration, plus he's so humble, and such a cheerful person too.

This was Xiaoma at 130 lbs before he started walking around NY eating all the Chinese foods just to practice his Chinese.

So true. If one can speak the language. One can better understand the culture. If one understands the culture. One can learn to live in peace with the other.

Wow! The legend in the making! How wholesome.

Greetings Xiaoma! I love your singing and cooking in this video! You have a beautiful wholeisitc awesomeness about your love of langage and people! What are your favorite Chinese foods of all time? I love your compassion and love that you bring to videos!

This video means a lot. I totally understand what is the intention behind it from 小马！ Hope two countries can get back to normal!

This is a wonderful video and it's great to see it being a big fan of yours. Let's not make things politicil here, peeps!

I am a student that is preparing to enter 中文课三。mandarin has always been so fun for me and I'm glad to see a guy that can cope and practice 10 years worth of Chinese lessons. keep up the good work 和好运！

This is before the ten visits to a restaurant in a day for videos lol

Xiaoma definitely had a glow up from seeing him here.

This is so wholesome! I love it!
