What gets me is how people can confuse Mandarin and Korean when spoken …languages are like night and day different

When you made your husband dress as Healer for halloween and you “dressed” like Young-shin/Ji-an by covering half your face with a white beanie and a white scarf :grin:

I always get a kick that Asian drama’s in general have terrible door props. They either don’t close or they look like they’re gonna fall down :smiley: but this one beats the cake: doors

And 엄마 (eomma) sounds like Oma (grandmother).

When women in their late twenties are adressed with 아줌마 (ajumma) … Our women would feel age-discriminated even if they were older.:grin:

:sweat_smile: it’s seriously nothing elaborate, like the really really bad faux version of Healer and Young-shin/Ji-an :joy:. So it’s more like “Bealer” than “Healer” :grin: .

I still get my Asian languages confused to be honest. I wouldn’t know Mandarin from Cantonese for example. I wouldn’t know Indonesian language from Malaysian. India I heard has so many dialects, but I think that I one that I am more exposed to is Punjabi but I still wouldn’t be able to distinguish it from other dialects. As for Korean, I’m ever so slowly starting to recognize it “off the streets”.

As long as you’re not familiar with both languages, it’s hard to recognize the difference even if they’re not related at all.
And Mandarin and Cantonese are closely related, so there it gets even harder.
To me there’s a huge difference between German and Dutch. Not all foreigners agree with me on that, though … :rofl:

Voor mij heeft Cantonees veel meer ‘eu’ en oi’ geluiden. Ik hoor het binnen de eerste paar zinnen, nadat ik eerst denk… waarom begrijp ik het opeens niet? :laughing:

Ik hoor eigenlijk niet zo vaak Cantonees. Ik zou misschien hooguit denken: “Dit klinkt niet zoals Mandarijn hoort te klinken!” :joy:
En als er dan iemand zou zeggen dat het Hakka was, zou ik het waarschijnlijk ook geloven. :laughing:
