I think Henri is the smoothest of the TH-cam polyglots in his transitions between languages and his laid back style. He doesn’t prank people per se but surprises them in different ways that are always natural. He often gives it away when he pronounces even just one word. And he’s not so famous yet he doesn’t get recognized straight away, which happens with greater frequency with more famous TH-camrs like Kazuma who has been doing it longer in a dedicated way instead of a hobby. This was such a great video because it shows how Henri tries to learn from his subjects to add to his language knowledge, veering off from standard Mandarin to learn slang and regional dialects. How he found time to do that while serving in the military and later in college is also impressive. It’s a lot of work to put such good content together, especially on Ome, which is known more for weirdos than wonderful people like him.
Kazuma's clever with the jump cuts and slick editing to make it look like he knows more of a language than he actually does. I like that 99% of this guy's posts are full, long conversations including the small mistakes and stuff. Makes it more genuine
Indeed he is genuine, humble, respectful and tries to understand people. Not judgemental, not arrogant and no intent to show off. All this makes it easier to have an open natural discussions in which people feel at ease while touching on subjects fat beyond the superficial, "how are you" , " you look so beatifull" etc...great to see that people of different background, cultures, nationalities just having "met" eachother can communicate so comfortably, great to watch!
Man i just love the way people open up to you when you start to talk in their native language. Like the lady when you pronounced Fujian the right way. A lot of channels are about making fun of the change language moment, its also fun seeing you doing that but you don't do it in a bad way making fun of it. Respect. Looking forward to your new episode. Thanks for sharing.
Another awsome video Henri...you initially surprise them by slipping in a little phrase of chinese...then your chats get really deep talking about culture etc...we all sit at home just waiting impatiently for the next one ! Brilliant as always !

So much more pleasing than several self procaimed "poligloats" (spelling errors on purpose) from a big country soon having a convicted felon as president from where people who can say "good morning , how are you in 3 languages think they are polyglots...I hope Henry continues as he is!
I started watching your channel when I first got into learning chinese. I was looking for youtubers who speak in chinese to help me improve. It's been about six months now and Im finally starting to understand some of what you guys say, it feels so rewarding! Keep up the good work, love your content!! 🔥🔥
just wanna say i found your channel out of no where and im glad i did your vids are very nice and i like how you have an actual interesting conversation with people
also @hepsima you do really have amazing long connective interactions and i get its hard to find people but even having atleast 3 people in a video would be great as you went from 1 person per vid years ago now usually 2-3 but you the goat
The guy was so happy when you even knew a bit of the dialects, you always make the people smile. You really deserve more subscribers, maybe you should look into cutting some good reactions into shorts, I've heard several times that shorts are boosting the algorithm on YT.
you've inspired me to start learning again!! these videos even without mandarin subtitles to go with the english ones are insanely useful for learning/listening practice as its such natural conversation. thank you for all your work, you are very talented my guy
You should save up money and travel to China. Meet up with some of the people you've interacted with and let them show you around. Like a little Chinese travel guide. Would watch 100%. Love from Sweden
Hey bro, love the vids man❤ Also one suggestion, could u maybe turn on the captions in the video perhaps? Since im currently studying chinese aswell and i think it would definetly help me alot. Hopefully you can see this message, keep making them banger vids bro ❤
Yooo hepsima. ive been watching the channel for a while and want to give learning chinese a try. any suggestions ? methods to self learn, such as the passive immersion you’ve mentioned before, and apps to use or videos to watch ? Excited to watch this video, consistent sunday uploads are fire
Always good videos. Would love to hear your self study techniques. I am self studying Portuguese which i think is much easier than most asian languages. So curious if you would share your self study approach some day.
I love your videos! BTW...just a bit of advice, don't touch your face so much as it causes acne. 😉 I had the same issue but it cleared up once I stopped.
Oh thanks that might be it. I get small ''outbreaks'' on my right jaw from time to time even though I drink a lot of water, don't really eat sugar and do skincare. Lol imma start paying attention to that🙌🙌
Hey , I just had a question , what resources did you use over the course of several years which made you fluent in mandarin ? , which could also help other self taught aspirants to be fluent in mandarin . Many thanks
I'm that one gurll wait his vedi every Sunday Then last Sunday i just watched his vedio but I didn't check the comment section 😂 Then till last night i was checking his channel if he ..... 😭😂 Shittt it happened to me 😭😂 Hope ya doing great pro ❤🫶
bro can you please put the simplified chinese subtitles in since youtube doesnt auto generate them! i know its extra editing but maybe you could copy paste it from google?
I actually think he might've turned it off here. TH-cam will auto-generate captions in the language it detects the most in the original audio track the video was uploaded with on most videos. Unless it's restricted in some way.
Henri is a Capricorn and the same BD as me means very meticulous, studious and diligent people. In good company with Elvis and Joan of Arc whose BD on the 7th and 8th of January who all somehow have connections to military service which is the diligent part of Capricorns to get things done !
No vid next week, see you all in 2 🙌
Happy christmas 🎅🎅🙏❤️
Hyvää Joulua ❤
merry chirstmas, and i wish u a happy new year, henri
Merry Christmas!
Hyvät pyhät vaan
happy holidays

This. This is why it has that allure a lot of the other ones don't.

I really appreciate that he lets them practice English as well.

Its always a good day when i see a Hepsima upload. Keep at it Henri, were here supporting you!
YOO NEW VID i just had to watch some old ones an hour ago was sad a new one didnt come
also @hepsima you do really have amazing long connective interactions and i get its hard to find people but even having atleast 3 people in a video would be great as you went from 1 person per vid years ago now usually 2-3 but you the goat
i dont speak chinese, im not chinese, im not learning chinese, but bro why those videos are like a drug it's so cool
personally it’s cool to hear and people being happy! personally that’s why i’m so pulled into it
The guy was so happy when you even knew a bit of the dialects, you always make the people smile.
You really deserve more subscribers, maybe you should look into cutting some good reactions into shorts, I've heard several times that shorts are boosting the algorithm on YT.
Letsgooo... Finally new upload!!!
When he says autumn at 15:35 he says it in a British accent which is super cool and shows influences on how he learned English
you've inspired me to start learning again!! these videos even without mandarin subtitles to go with the english ones are insanely useful for learning/listening practice as its such natural conversation. thank you for all your work, you are very talented my guy
It's easier at the beginning, but a bit further on, you'd want Mandarin subtitles as well to bridge the two together.
You should save up money and travel to China. Meet up with some of the people you've interacted with and let them show you around. Like a little Chinese travel guide. Would watch 100%. Love from Sweden
Hey bro, love the vids man❤

Many thanks

bro can you please put the simplified chinese subtitles in since youtube doesnt auto generate them! i know its extra editing but maybe you could copy paste it from google?
