    For anyone curious, India have many different Indian languages, there is no language called ‘Indian’. Indians speak Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Punjabi, Sindhi and etc, there is over 20 or so last I recall.
    You can’t say that someone speaks Indian, because they aren’t. They are speaking in one of the many Indian languages.
    Chinese - he’s definitely not speaking in one of the dialects, such as Hakka or Cantonese.
    Korean - well, they only have one language? Just that different people speaks in different accents.
    Indonesia - definitely speaking in Bahasa Indonesia.

What I liked the girls ' comment that describes Xyaomanic well is Have Courage, be dedicated to languages, care about communicating improvise, do not worry about making mistakes, everyone makes mistakes, try to talk that with practice with natives and non-Natives you improve and master the language. And I'm glad they liked and rejoiced and admired the effort yes 🙂 about superhuman effort's Xyaomanic even with an accent estadonitano manages to be polyglot. I love the charitable, welcoming and hospitable spirit of the mocas they know what it is to be a foreigner and speak every day non-native languages different from their own. They know what reality is like the exception is the Korean girl who is affectionate welcoming hospitable and loving. The Xyaomanic videos were shown very kicked, quick of this detail I did not like it should change and be corrected, in other things the video was beautiful yes and great and educational. Congratulations to the gals and of course to the Xyaomanic colleague and friend who carries in his linguistics wisdom valuable world cultures, I loved it. Kisses on the soul of all the beautiful girls caresses and kisses continue in this spirit of acikher well and take good care of those who do not speak well and dominate Asian culture.
