  • HELLOOO! A bit of a different video today!
    I have gotten a few requests on making a video of me speaking Chinese before but to be quite honest I'm really shy about posting this video because my intonation is poor. Nonetheless, I really wanted to share this side of me to you guys. I figured that it might be semi interesting for you to hear me speak a different language, albeit a bit butchered, and to hear me talk about the "Chinese things / habits" in my life.
    I completely embrace my Chinese-ness, as well as my Filipino-ness. I consider Philippines as my home despite my appearance. I'm proud to be both.
    Be proud of your race / nationality. Be proud of who you are.
    Love,
    Nadine

    I was born in the Philippines and learned to speak philippine- hokkien. I leave now in switzerland and when I hear you speaking chinese it sounds so familiar.

    Thank you for creating this video and giving exposure to Philippine Hokkien, "our people's language" (lan lang ue). I hope that you will be making more videos featuring this beautiful language and that others will be inspired by you to keep the mother tongue alive. To sia di!

    This is cute. I was raised speaking hokkien cause my parents speak rly bad mandarin and grandparents dont speak any mandarin. Ur hokkien is actually legit. Vocab and use of phrases are just the same as what ppl in quanzhou would use(I say quanzhou here bc most Filipino Chinese trace their ancestry back to quanzhou and every place in hokkien has somewhat different accents and phrases) I can tell right away from ur accent that it’s influenced by Tagalog but that’s not a problem as long as you know how to speak hokkien! Great job keeping ur heritage alive!

    omg i was so surprised how well you can speak hokkien! I am a burmese hokkien too but i can barely understand most of it :-( but i could relate to so much of what you are speaking especially the medicine chicken soup!!! love this!! more of these please!

      @benlaw7843 5 місяців тому

      I believe my Grand Parents was in Burma before they moved to Bangladesh and then to Kolkata, India. So I guess our Hokkien will be very similar as I am also like you "but i can barely understand most of it :-(".

    Hi, nadine! I was searching here in youtube of how to speak/learn hokkien, then I saw your video and clicked it... oh my.. I was in awe! Because you're a filipino-chinese and you're very fluent in speaking in hokkien. I am also a filipino-chinese but I didn't get the chance to learn how to speak in hokkien, but I learned how to speak in mandarin because I used to attend chinese school before but they only teach mandarin. So yeah, just sharing hehe. Oh! You're an amazing vlogger/youtuber! Keep it up!

    I have a Filipino-Chinese friend who is very dear to me. Not a drop of Chinese blood in me but I can fully relate to all the things you said. It’s funny coz watching you video kind of reminds me of the ample amount of hokkien I learned thru the years.

    my family's from taiwan and i never knew that taiwanese was so similar to hokkien! i was searching youtube to learn more taiwanese and i got really discouraged. ive been trying to improve my taiwanese but it was hard because i grew up in america and it's not really spoke in taiwan anymore, but when i learned it's almost exactly like hokkien (with a different accent) i got so excited!! i actually understand what you're saying! so thank you so much for this

    • @NadineFelice

    • @johndoe5346

      Actually taiwanese IS hokkien. I believe taiwan decided to call it the "taiwanese language"? But it's really the same language with a taiwanese accent lol.

  • @zeccy337
    @zeccy337 6 років тому +152

    Wait. This is basically philippines hokkien. If i listen hard enough i can understand, but i'm more used to singapore hokkien. I'm not sure if its your pronunciation or what but i cant understand a word you're saying

    • @NadineFelice
      @NadineFelice  6 років тому +34

      Likewise with listening to singaporian hokkien! I think filipino style is softer? The Filipino language heavily influenced my accent. Also, taiwanese hokkien accent is also different for me!

    • @zeccy337
      @zeccy337 6 років тому

      Nadine Felice I cant put my finger on it. If i were to listen to this, i would say that you're pronouncing it wrong but its just different accents

  • @allegrolover
    @allegrolover 4 роки тому +13

    Hi Nadine! Stumbled upon your channel while looking for Philippine Hokkien videos for my (linguist) friend's reference. It's nice to hear Hokkien spoken much like how I was taught haha; bo hien ah-ni chhim, ma-si bo ya man-tai chhao e hahaha. In my case the chhim-khoan e hokkien oe is reserved for the church, especially when I attended the early morning service with my late goa-kong and if I'm required to read the Bible in Hokkien hahaha.
    A note tho, very discouraged na yung paggamit ng hoan-na to refer to local Filipinos. In its original meaning, hoan-na can either mean 'foreigner' or 'barbarian'. Even yung hoan-na po, very discriminatory yung dating; kang-lang is more accepted. In this time of dismantling and purging racist elements in both the Filipino and FilChi culture, we must do our part as the new generation of Chinoys :)
    Anyway, nakakatuwa marinig kang nagsasalita haha. Kiong-hi on your channel!

    I RELATE SO MUCH TO THIS STUFF OMG. Though I am Fil-Chi, I don't speak an ounce of Chinese because I didn't enroll in Chinese school and I didn't take my Chinese tutorials seriously lol. But omg sobrang relate lalo na when it comes to like Ahma and Angkong and Guama and Guakong it's confusing sometimes 🙃 also Chinese medicine and in my family any skin condition can be treated with BL cream idk if it's a thing to every Chinoy out there but it's a thing in Binondo. Thanks for making this video Nades! Loved it!!

    Just came across your video today. Certainly very interesting to hear Hokkien with Filipino inflection/accent and words thrown in the mix! Good to know that that Hokkien still thrives in your family! I'm a Chinese Malaysian who can barely function in my own dialects, Hakka and Hokkien which I partly blame for Mandarin language medium primary education in Malaysia.

I find all the people who speak Hokkien has a different accent than my family. I used to think those other Hokkien accents were weird but maybe our accent is weird. 🤣🤣🤣 But I can understand what you are saying for he most part because you do speak quite quickly.
