Better than good but less than excellent

Jia Yang's delivery of English is so clear sia

For those who believe that only speaking English is prestigious, similar to many Americans who are monolingual, Jiayang shows true sophistication. It's important to recognize the value of being proficient in a second language, as it opens up a world of opportunities for growth and personal development. Despite being one of the youngest and least experienced individuals in the company, my proficiency in Mandarin earned me an assignment in China. This unique work experience allowed me to effectively collaborate the locals with a senior colleague from Singapore, who was also fluent in Mandarin, where we were there for a period of time. Even though I excelled in my Chinese O's, I felt like a primary school kid during my time at the China company. 😅 Some of the preschoolers there might have even been better than me! 😂 But I was still able to express myself and be understood, which was a great feeling. Don't underestimate the benefits of bilingual education and environments. Learning an additional language is always a valuable asset. 1 language X1 door of opportunities. Jiayang opened 7 doors By the way, it can be quite amusing if your parents speak Mandarin at home and you pretend not to understand it, like a gangtang/ potato or banana. There's no need to be ashamed of your mother tongue. I remember seeing friends who spoke dialect and Mandarin fluently at home, but then acted as if they only knew English in public with friends. Speaking your mother tongue or dialect is not something to be ashamed of or considered low class. Embrace our languages and unique cultural roots! 🙏🏻 P.s. a lot of the expats are spending $$$ on their kids to learn Chinese and they speak fluently and confidently, super proud that they can speak Mandarin. Funny to see Singaporeans feeling sia suay for speaking Mandarin or teaching their kids Mandarin.

I'm the bride @emceejiayang mentioned!! Omg thanks for bringing back wonderful memories 8:15 😊 My dad watched a lot of Chinese talk shows and surprised us with an impromptu 脱口秀. He even used the story of 孟母三迁 to entertain our guests with the story of how our family kept moving houses to find good school 😆 he was very happy to hear that he left an impression on you and our family LOVED the poem! Jiayang seriously the best emcee in SG!! 😜

you got all the literal meaning right. but just wanna explain that 只羡鸳鸯不羡仙 is a chinese saying. firstly 鸳鸯is a pair of birds (鸳 is the male bird, 鸯 is the female bird) that are always together. so 鸳鸯 is often used to describe a couple. 只羡鸳鸯不羡仙 means they would choose to be like the mandarin ducks, loving each other and be with each other for eternity, and wouldn't exchange it for immortality.

Jiayang's Mandarin isn't 普通的好, it's 超级棒! Honestly speaking, although many of us have gone through Chinese lessons for at least 10 years of our lives, we don't really use the language much, which is rather sad.

Princess Sew, I think your Mandarin only the Indians can understand. Heeheehee Hahahahaha Sorry My Bad ! 👍👍😁😁😂😂🤣🤣😊😊💚💚🧡🧡💙💙💛💛👍👍

for some reason countries that dont have culture or history seem slightly bland to me. Culture,roots,i feel like it gives a sense of identity. People say language is the door to culture,if you teach your mother tongue to child,they will read all the literature associated with your culture and associate with that culture. Not teaching language = child growing up without your culture.

5:45 我在喝绿茶，差点喷到整个手机都是😂😂😂

Suddenly see 王嘉尔❤😂

China or Taiwan no prata but they have lots of 煎饼

在新加坡，可悲嘅係，好多華人社區講英文而唔係講中文。

Our mother tongue is actually not mandarin though.. it's hokkien/teochew/cantonese/etc.

Hey there! I noticed your comment on 'he doesn't even know.... is language or dialect' and wanted to provide some information. I mentioned that it depends on the context when it comes to language or dialect. When you asked about Cantonese as a spoken language, I cited Guangdong and Guangxi as examples where Cantonese is still spoken. And regarding whether Cantonese is an official language in Singapore, there are no sources to confirm that. I hope I was able to help clarify things for you. Feel free to consider yourself the winner of this discussion! 😄
