I believe this is something that happens when you grow up as a kid & know other languages at such a young age. For example, I speak 4 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, & Italian), 3 of which I speak very fluently while 1 I speak with an accent. I have been told before by friends & colleagues that they couldn't understand how I could speak a certain language with no indication of accent that I could speak another. It's not too common, but we do exist 😂😂
@xeronix9774 thank you. I will say that my 4th language (Italian), the accent is slowly going away as I keep practicing it more & more nowadays. I think that people who only speak one language as they get older they get so used to the way words are pronounced in their native tongue. Which I can see makes it more challenging to speak another language without an accent ☆Fun fact, my parents didn't teach me how to speak English. They didn't know how to because they didn't know it. I learned by watching cartoons as a kid every day☆
I'm betting she has her mothers accent and her mother spoke only to her in Japanese I also expect she learned her Japanese exclusively from her motherand her English from school.
Yeah, a 7 year old American isn't fluent in English, they are a fully native speaker. The Japanese bit is the fluent part, but she's been speaking that for over 10 years. Makes sense she'd be so capable at both.
@@Elmonsoon You grossly underestimated just how much a kid could've forgotten their native tongue after moving to a totally alien place at such a young age, where they could hardly ever use their native tongue, while being forced to pick up a totally alien tongue fast. it's not all that uncommon for kids to move to an entirely different country & almost couldn't speak the first language they learned by the time they've become adults.
@@FalconWindblader I'm not sure I offered an opinion on whether or not someone could lose fluency in their native language, just that American English is hers.

Of course, Japanese is a bit like Chinese. It has its own accent and intonation. Without inttonation, you will sound bitter and lifeless. In this case, if your voice is deep (men), you will sound cooler. And if your voice is high (woman), you will sound cuter.
Even though I get why it's the case I'm always amazed how much power language has when it comes to influencing your personality in the moment depending what language you're speaking at any given moment.

Amazing. Only the first seven years in the US and you’ve retained the accent. I’ve seen older 10-12 year olds moving to UK and having that accent for life.
I mean she didn't mention much about her upbringing in this clip its possible she went to an international school or just retained a lot at home with her father speaking in English growing up
She only needed to be in the US (and hearing/speaking American english constantly) for the first 2-3 years to have the American accent when speaking english and never lose it unless she wanted to (by training herself into another accent), even if she never became fluent in english or she lost most of her english by rarely speaking it. There's an interesting course on Coursera called The Bilingual Brain that gives a good summary of how accents then language fluency is acquired by toddlers. 10-12 year olds wouldn't typically change accents naturally but could easily train themselves into a local accent if they listened and practiced a lot. John Barrowman is a good example of someone who did that (at age nine-ish) and now he basically has two accents, Scottish and Mid-Atlantic, that feel natural to him.
It’s because Japan and America don’t share the same language… if you’re American but you hear Brits speak the same language as you, but slightly different, most of your life, you’re gonna copy their accent. But in her case she never had that so… literally no reason to change accent

I also notice a slight change in personality when I speak English, for some reason I feel like I’m way more sarcastic in English, while being much more reserved and not joking much in Spanish.
I perceive myself as somewhat more intelligent and/or firm whenever I use English, hence I usually talk to my dog in English (trained him in what I considered to be my "actual voice"). Funny thing is that I might have native proficiency but I'm not a native speaker myself.
No shit, i remember her. Also born and raised in NH. Idk if we went to school together or a camp thing or activity, but i recognize the name. Time to.break out the yearbook if i can find it
I've always wanted to watch a film or a series starring Japanese or Koreans that will speak American English clearly (NOT dubbed 😅), but as same Japanese or Korean characteristics or traditions. I still want to see them in their own demure and cool, but dramatic personalities.. Please do it! It would be amazing to watch. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I am halfu as well. My dad is Irish (from Ireland) and my mom is Japanese. I was born and raised in Japan and I speak Japanese, English, Gaeilge and a very little French.
How did you learn Gaeilge? I went to school briefly in Ireland. As I didn't speak English yet, and it was clear we would not be living there for good, I was exempt for Irish Classes. I revisited language sites, but since no one really spoke it ( except curse, I could do that comfortably) I found it hard.
This is wild. Just the other day, I was watching an Irish comedian say they don't do conflict and instead shag their way into every culture. I was like, "Not us asians!" Thx for humbling me lmao
Thanks for sharing🌸. Same for my kids. They express their creativity /imagination very well in English . They communicate anything about rationality/logic better in French
What an interesting person! Your first 7 years are the most formative. And particular about the emotions. I feel like she was much more expressive of herself and opinions than I usually see in street interviews.
Its interesting, im the reverse in that i moved from japan to Australia at age 7 and im more expressive in Japanese and more quiet/shy in English (at least up until my 20's) Probably has something to do with shyness when not being able to speak the new language, which shapes your personality a little bit.
She probably visits the US a lot if she has some part of her American side of her family there. Plus, her dad likely is more comfortable speaking English being half and half.

She's so much like me. I am SEA and was born over there. But I've been in the US for a long time now. It's hard for me to not speak English when my emotions comes out.
I think I would be pretty shocked if I came across a Japanese person in New Hampshire. Vietnamese and Cambodia would make sense because they have a larger presence in Lawrence and Lowell which aren't that far respectively. Japanese though, outside of Boston or Cambridge, I wouldn't expect it.
@@michaelg6641 yes they are! That's what I was trying to imply. New Hampshire doesn't exactly have a large Asian footprint from what I've personally seen. The closest ones I've seen to New Hampshire are the ones that are in Massachusetts cities that are within about a 10 to 15 minute drive to the Southern New Hampshire border. Highest ones I've seen are in places like Boston or Cambridge that are also within Massachusetts (Boston being the capital, Cambridge bordering Boston)
She mentioned exactly the same thing I used to talk to my friends in Korea. I also feel like I can express my thoughts and opinions freely in English but not in Japanese and Korean. ( I am Korean but I can speak Japanese at a native level) BTW, she speaks really cute in Japanese
This makes sense to me. Learning a new language through immersion is intertwined with adopting the culture and mindset, especially at a young age. Americans generally have higher self-esteem, whereas Japanese people tend to have more humility.
She looks very pretty and look bright And her speaking makes me want to look at her when she speaks and pay attention when she speaks. She looks very beautiful.
Her analysis of herself in either language is interesting. It sounds like she feels more limited in her self expression in Japanese, that's a bit sad 🫤 Not that surprising perhaps, but nevertheless. Love these videos and shorts Takashi, glad I subscribed to your channel 🙂
I relate with her because I only ever speak Japanese with my mother so I have a limited conversation topics which lead to limited vocabulary. I speak in English when I want to be expressive. I would love to be friends with Hana!
Whether it’s the people, food, music, or Mayan culture and archeology, there’s so many amazing things that make me want to visit Mexico. And then I remember this stuff happens there, and even if it’s a low chance, there’s nothing there worth seeing enough to even risk a 0.1% chance of this happening to you.

Wow, she's amazing in both languages!!
I noticed this about when I speak English (as an Indian American) vs when I speak Hindi as well!
NH?!20年ほど前NHの大学を卒業しましたが、州の人種比率が98%白人,アジア人0.2%か何かだったかで、日本人の留学生ですら珍しく、アジア人に遭遇するもほとんどなかったので、NHで育った日本人の方でびっくりしました😮その頃は逆に珍しすぎて差別とか一切なく、若干アイドルというか小学校に訪問してほしいとか、大学でも日本人というだけで友達になりたいと話しかけてくる子もいたぐらいです😂
I’m from New Hampshire, too! Over the years, our High School has had a lot of foreign exchange students from Japan.
Contrary to the propaganda you’ll see online, the US is arguably the least “racist” country on the planet.
English or Japanese, she is so cute. Adorable. I wish her the best.
She's so much like me. I am SEA and was born over there. But I've been in the US for a long time now. It's hard for me to not speak English when my emotions comes out.
I think I would be pretty shocked if I came across a Japanese person in New Hampshire. Vietnamese and Cambodia would make sense because they have a larger presence in Lawrence and Lowell which aren't that far respectively. Japanese though, outside of Boston or Cambridge, I wouldn't expect it.
Nashua to be exact 😂 👍🏽
Aren't those cities in Massachusetts?
@@michaelg6641 yeah that's a typical masshole with pride there 😂
@@michaelg6641 yes they are! That's what I was trying to imply. New Hampshire doesn't exactly have a large Asian footprint from what I've personally seen. The closest ones I've seen to New Hampshire are the ones that are in Massachusetts cities that are within about a 10 to 15 minute drive to the Southern New Hampshire border.
Highest ones I've seen are in places like Boston or Cambridge that are also within Massachusetts (Boston being the capital, Cambridge bordering Boston)
she is unreall.. so pretty ❤❤❤❤
She’s so beautiful
Omg she’s so pretty
She mentioned exactly the same thing I used to talk to my friends in Korea. I also feel like I can express my thoughts and opinions freely in English but not in Japanese and Korean. ( I am Korean but I can speak Japanese at a native level)
BTW, she speaks really cute in Japanese
She is so beautiful…
When she laughed, her eyes became those beautiful eyes in anime! ❤❤❤❤
She’s so cute
" I like myself when I speak in english more" so true, I believe it to be my case as well, is this a phenomenon?
Same as me, as a Portuguese native speaker.
This makes sense to me. Learning a new language through immersion is intertwined with adopting the culture and mindset, especially at a young age. Americans generally have higher self-esteem, whereas Japanese people tend to have more humility.
Can relate having 2 mother tongues. Born outside the States, but mostly grew up there and live there too.
Pretty cool. Very enlightening.
Wow, Her voice is so cute. I feel more confident when she speaks English.
The best mix I've seen so far was Japanese and Indian. Man, she was like an elf
My god she’s gorgeous❤
This woman's boyfriend Ryota is very handsome.
Women all over the world should marry Japanese men
@@vifcozshut up , stop acting like japanese men are shit bcoz they aren't
Hannah is beautiful and a cute voice
*Hana
Hannah isnt a voice, its a name
She looks very pretty and look bright And her speaking makes me want to look at her when she speaks and pay attention when she speaks. She looks very beautiful.
Her analysis of herself in either language is interesting. It sounds like she feels more limited in her self expression in Japanese, that's a bit sad 🫤
Not that surprising perhaps, but nevertheless.
Love these videos and shorts Takashi, glad I subscribed to your channel 🙂
Heyyyy someone from NH! Good to see you!
I relate with her because I only ever speak Japanese with my mother so I have a limited conversation topics which lead to limited vocabulary. I speak in English when I want to be expressive.
I would love to be friends with Hana!
New Hampshire, at least she lived in a nice state for the 7 years there.
Whether it’s the people, food, music, or Mayan culture and archeology, there’s so many amazing things that make me want to visit Mexico. And then I remember this stuff happens there, and even if it’s a low chance, there’s nothing there worth seeing enough to even risk a 0.1% chance of this happening to you.
She is so cute!
She actually has an American accent when she speaks Japanese, which makes it sound cute though.
She's naturally pretty ❤
Probably one of the top 3 female Japanese speakers of English I've ever heard. If I didn't see her I'd say it's two different women
She's so beautiful ❤🤭
Oh my days shes super beautiful!
She is so cute
She's adorable. My gf is the same way. Beautiful Japanese, Chinese and British girl. Tell her everyday.
Murphy = sea warrior in Ireland and there's a lot of Murphys in Ireland. Great name
well I see that as a benefit of being bilingual. If you can fit into multiple society/culture, why not?
She's a beauty!
I like the way she's differentiated her feelings so well. "I like myself more when I speak English" ❤ very clear😊
I love how they speak from English to Japanese
