This girl is incredible... the way she speaks is so calming and passionate .. so humble ...she makes you want to be nice amd just go talk to a stranger.. love her !
I watched your videos, but I don't think I can learn Chinese or Japanese. Maybe I can learn a few phrases for fun, but it's so hard to learn these languages. I mean, as a Romanian, I can speak Italian and Spanish (I sometimes speak Spanitalian, because they are so similar), but Japanese and Chinese...a whole new level. I really enjoy your videos, you are a true professional.
Thanks so much! I’m a newbie, so I’m still learning the ropes. It means a lot that other TH-camrs like you say the video looks professional. I hope there is more progress to come.
@@DrivenLatino cool, don't stop with just 'hello' ;) such simple interactions with native speakers is a reason why I could speak English and Chinese now
The good thing about you is that you don't just "order" in Chinese/Japanese, you actually have a cool convo with them! Props to you! #CantWaitForLockdownToFinish!
@@ruins7025 Yes, but exposure to the English language is much bigger for Chinese people (generally), than exposure to the Chinese language for people in English-speaking countries. English is the universal language and resources to learn it are everywhere. It's also being taught in schools in most countries, including China. Therefore I do think it's more impressive for an English speaker to be fluent in Chinese, than vice versa.
You got free food cause you scared her... LOL.!!! 😂😂😂 SO HILARIOUS... Personally speaking, I think you got free food because you have such a fabulous personality and positive vibes... You are so awesome... 👍👍👍
This is so cool I’m so encouraged to learn from language programs. I live in Texas and there are so many languages spoken here. I would be ever so happy and content if I could at least be able to speak a greeting in at least seven different languages. Kudos to you for working so hard and giving others such encouragement.👍🏼
I'm glad I was sent to English classes after all the kids went home. It was always so stressful because the class started on the exact time that my school ended so I had to rush and be late. But looking back I don't mind because I assume most of the kids that got to go home early can't watch anything in English. And to know English makes learning anything 100 times easier because you can just tap into all the resources that might not exist in many other languages. I can learn Japanese easier because of the good textbooks that are written in English and many good TH-camrs teaching Japanese in English.
Same , when I was in primary school , I had an English teacher that I was afraid of , but without her I wouldn t have learned English because I used to hate it so much.
You inspired me to start learning Japanese and Mandarin. Thank you so much for these kinds of videos! Really goes a long way for so many. A real language learning inspiration!
I am naturally motivated in studying Chinese, but watching your videos definitely makes me want to study more. Being able to understand what someone is saying is wonderful, replying them like you do is sick. I can't wait for the next videos. By the way, ChineseClass101 is REALLY cool, Thanks a billion for your recommendation!
Hi there Anming from northern Germany ! I´m a big fan of your channel so far . I love how you encourage the viewers to start a language& just use it to have fun. To make friends,- or be friendly - you dont need to be on a university level. The chinese /japanese speaking people You introduce are very interesting. Keep em coming,I will watch ém!
I love this! I'm feeling motivated to make similar videos as I'm learning Chinese and living on an island where almost speaks English, so I'm forced to learn Mandarin to get by. Maybe when I get good enough I'll score some free goods too heheh ❤️ thanks for the inspiration.
your channel is cool kayla, i just subbed, keep up the good content, thanks for the inspiration too oriental pearl ive been learning spanish and mandarin for a year its all coming together, take care! :D
I love Chinese people because they are so supportive! If you say anything more than 你好 they start praising you. And when you're able to actually speak at this level their reaction is to give you free food :)
Wow, I just wanted to tell you how inspiring you and your videos are!!! I started learning Chinese at a language school nearby in December, but the class has been suspended since Corona came to the EU. I am still new to Chinese so I just practice the stuff I already now because I don’t want to get anything wrong, I‘m kinda waiting to be able to see our teacher again. Meanwhile, I started studying Japanese 3 months ago just for fun, and I‘ve come so far already!!! Idk why, but whenever I see your videos I am getting such a big confidence boost!!!!
Aside from your language skills, it’s your authentic personality that makes me a fan. Combining these 2 things together is what makes your channel so special. I haven’t found another multi-language speaker like you yet nor I believe I ever will. I’m cheering for your successes Oriental pearl! Also the “I got bubble tea” song is a blues clues reference isn’t it lol
Your videos always make me forget for a while what we are living through, and bring so much joy to the world. I'm getting better each time watching your videos and understanding you without subs on but I still mess up thank you for the videos during this time
Loved your conversation with shanghai girl haha 5:01 that view is amazing,i bet nobody noticed! when i speak hindi in indian restaurant sometimes i get free Lassi,15% chance! thumbs up :D
That's really cool! I should go out to eat with you Rody. I want to get your discount. lol I'm looking forward to seeing your Tokyo apartment tour video.
You inspired me to start learning Japanese. I’ve tried a few times in the past but never really stuck with it, but your videos show how fun it can be to interact with people from other cultures. It gives me the motivation to keep going.
YES! That's awesome. Remember it takes a lot of hard work and the most difficult thing about it is humbling yourself in order to be corrected. Making mistakes and learning from them means leveling up.
7:51 Lmao I miss heard this a “Really” in Korean.😂 Ack I want to learn Korean and I’m picking it up from music, dramas, and even interviews. I remember words and I can translate it in my head, it’s pretty cool.
Omg, i love your channel, you are so uplifting with your language skills i could watching you the whole Day talking to people and make them happy 😁. Best wishes from Austria 🇦🇹 🙏 😎 stay safe
I appreciate that you picked up on my comment from the last video. I will certainly look at the links and will try not to give up learning Japanese. Like you said, all this hard work pays off.
when you learn a language, learn it properly, when i was a kid, i do my calculation and speak out the number loud in cantonese, 1.4, 2.4, 3.5, 4.8 ... then somebody asked me if im cursing them, cause they only know the number 4.
Hello from Denmark. Thank you for your videos, I enjoy them very much. I also just started the Journey of selfstudying Japanese and are in my second month of doing this. I do it bacause I've always been fascinated with the culture and Karate. Also I want to go there someday and maybe live there. Arigato gozaimasu!
Hehe we all have skills to help each other on this roller coaster ride called life,using it to put smiles and making people feel important is a blessing from our boss,here is right back at you😁😁😁😁😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤗🤗🤗🤗😊😊😊😊😊😊
Your passion and honesty not only made people you talked with a pleasant encounter, but also for viewers like me who really enjoyed your way to interacting with different people. Thank you for the wonderful video!
It's heartwarming watching this: love and respect for one another breaking barriers. Hope our friends from America can watch this channel and see the reactions of the Chinese people towards Americans. Your hatred will thaw like ice.
@@OrientalPearl Although I still have some reservations that Japanese people's reaction will be as electric if you were a Chinese vlogger. White folks seems to be popular for some unknown reasons in Asia. If only we Asians could love one another before extending the same gesture to foreigners.
Janglal Goupiak , as an American the only hate I see towards the Chinese are the racist people and the republicans in office. They hate me too and I’m white. This will pass soon once that moron tRump is out of office. I am so ashamed of the USA right now.
I got so much inspiration watching this video today! What she said was really humble and encouraging. I'm from Brazil and I just have studied Japanese today but after I have watched this video I think I'm going to study a bit more! Thank you!
Hello Brazil! Anytime you need some motivation I want to help. This is like when I was learning to play the violin and watched videos on TH-cam to get some inspiration.
Hello Anming, because of you and your videos, I pursued learning Chinese (self taught), watching your videos and other youtubers that speak Chinese makes me REALLY MOTIVATED!!! thank you ❤️❤️❤️
To be frank, I am of different generation from yours, during my time if you mentioned you are a graduate, people will feel awesome that you got a degree, but now most university graduate will just mention as if it’s a matter of fact! 😊
So cool and awesome of your language abilities speaking Chinese and Japanese. I enjoy watching the shock on their faces when you are speaking their language. Thanks for sharing and to inspire us that any language is not difficult to learn.
Congrats to you Anming for what you are able to do - connect to others in a foreign dialect with such authenticity and sincerity! Always find your videos so fascinating and enjoyable hearing you speak and watching people’s responses. Keep up the great work!
Two years ago, I had for free in a Chinese store near here something for Christmas and a smile from the Chinese woman. The Chinese people here always smile when I speak to them in Chinese mandarin, I like that and I normally when I watch Chinese dramas on TH-cam I always disable the English subtitles. I write my diary in Chinese mandarin and I am thinking writing a song in Chinese one day...
@@OrientalPearl one time I noticed the Chinese man in the store didn't speak Portuguese then I spoke to him in Chinese mandarin to be more easily and he smiled. I love smiles but because of the coroanavirus that stores are closed yet.
Another lovely video, makes me feel very happy during these tough times, thanks. I live in Scotland and things are getting a lot better. Warm greetings and much love from Scotland...
9:48 THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU'VE EVER SAID. Thank you..... it is worth the focus, the dedication, the purpose and vision and ambition.....when you later reap the rewards of your effort. You are an inspiration to others and it is well deserved.
Hi Anming, very inspirational video today. Loved it. I'm going to work in Portugal in a few years. Thank you for the positive vibes. You are so humble as always. Have a great week.
Alyssa, this was one of your best videos that I've seen. You're an inspiring young woman. I guess people say that natives appreciate the effort no matter what level you are at with learning their language.
I’ve been watching many of your videos and they are so amazing it’s like we’re all goin on an adventure with you and the fact that you make people happy just by speaking their native language is cool❤️ Such wholesome videos keep on making these videos and stay safe :)
OMG I love your videos! Actually I started to learn Chinese and you motivated me so much! It's so nice that Chinese people react so positive if you are speaking Chinese :) That's the best motivation for me, because I really like Chinese people :))
Yes, it truly is awesome. And amazing. And fun to watch the reactions. She said she wasn't giving you free food because of your Chinese, it was because you're cute. You're getting compliments from every direction. When I subscribed a couple months ago, you had less than ten thousand subscribers. Now look. I can't wait until you hit that 100,000 mark (and you will).
Thanks for being here for so long. You are one of the veterans because this channel really just started at the end of February. It's been fun. Let's see where it goes from here.
@@OrientalPearl EXCELLENT. CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH. I ALREADY SUBSCRIBED YOUR CHANNEL, HOPE TO GET THE UPDATE SOON. BY THE WAY, YOU ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL.-- FROM BOSTON, MA USA.
the intro is so positive! it really gets you wanting to speak chinese, especially always seeing you have such friendly conversations with locals and seeing how much fun you have.
You are very smart and a very good inspiration to me and other people. I'm so glad you not a cocky person like some other people on TH-cam, and that's why I love your channel.
Japanese is easier at first, but gets harder and harder. Chinese is the opposite. It starts off hard and gets easier. Overall, Japanese is harder because advanced grammar in Japanese is very hard.
Dear Oriental Pearl, yes please, that would be very interesting to see some advanced Chinese and Japanese videos on this channel. Absopositively liked!
She is very talented and speaks well Japanese......I am Japanese but only have 6th grade knowledge of kanji writing and starting to forget a bit since I was raised in Southern California....so watching her encourages me......great job.
The comment you made at the end of the video about how "most people just don't want to give up their free time" is so so so true for me. For months I've chosen to watch Netflix or re-watch TH-cam videos I've already seen, instead of studying Korean which is my language of choice, when I just want to be able to do what you do. I really admire your language speaking abilities and the hard work it took to get there and it inspires me to study more. Love your content! Keep being you!
@@OrientalPearl I actually have been the last few days and your videos have inspired me to get back into it, because I really want to be fluent and communicate like you can with others, myself. Thank you!
This video was soooo cute! Their entire demeanor changed once you broke out the mandarin! These videos make me want to learn mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, etc so bad. I should just start somewhere.
It really warmed my heart seeing you speak their language. It's like a breath of fresh air for them. You can tell they were super happy seeing a foreigner speak their language. I love your videos!
Great content. In this video, how to touch hearts of strangers regardless of language. Coming across as friendly, polite and humble. Really enjoyed it. I Look forward to the next video.
I caught that blues clues reference when you got the bubble tea at 5:34. The unmistakable Blues Clues letter tune! x3 I love your channel and your mission!
Everybody in these videos are always so sweet, it'd be cool to meet more people like that. I'm trying to learn Japanese on my own because I eventually want to go to Japan and attend a language school
That's so cool that you want to come to language school. Find one that is focused on spoken Japanese not test--based Japanese. Many of the school just train students to pass a test. Look carefully otherwise you may pick the wrong type and be disappointed like I was.
@@OrientalPearl yeah I found one already! I just need to save up up enough money before I can actually start the application process. Hopefully within the next year or 2, I'll be there
Hello From Turkey I just want to say that you are great at doing what you do. Your tips and advices and the way you talk everything is so positive thank you. I am learning Japanese and about to start Chinese also. Keep making videos. You are the best I mean. Thank you.
Agree, reading and writing Chinese is totally different ball game. Also agree that you gave up lot of your time study the language and even went to university in china. Keep inspiring people and making us laugh by your Pranks lol.
You've worked very long n hard to get where you are. I love the way you can switch from Chinese to Japanese, literally in the same sentence. You are very talented, even if you don't admit it yourself. Love watching your streams.😘
Anming, you are a real credit to yourself and your family. What a polygot and the people really appreciated your ability to speak without any accent. Wow, I can only speak Mandarin and would love to pick up Japanese and also Spanish and Dutch mainly for hockey as I am a hockey player and coach. Perhaps you should get your country's leaders to do likewise instead of being narrow minded. Keep the wonderful videos coming as for me it is a must watch every week. Love it and hope when the corona virus is over you can shoot over to China and meet up with Li Zhiqi and do a video together and I am sure your subscribers will shoot into the million mark.
@@OrientalPearl Yes, I know you mentioned it previously but if you visit her and have a chat with her or even get to sample her cooking, I can guarantee that overnight you will also be subscribed by her subscribers and you will reach a million subscribers no worries. Such is life. She has ten million followers and sometimes twelve or fifteen million viewers. She apparently earns about one million US per annum from having such a large viewer base. She is also incredibly kind as she donated a huge sum of money to fight the pandemic by purchasing ventilators, masks, etc.
Thank you for your advice. I am trying to learn Chinese, and I know that learning any new language requires consistency. I am really happy to get motivation to keep learning Chinese everyday. Who knows maybe in a few months later, I can speak Chinese then jump to learn Japanese as I love Japan also.
Yes! I saw your videos and I've been studying Japanese for a week now. It's been very hard but also amazing how much I've learned. Never thought I could learn another language after failing at French in high school. The journey seems daunting but I hope I can continue. It would be incredible to communicate with people like you do.
LOVE your content!!! Every time I watch one of your videos I get so envious. I love that you can speak both Chinese and Japanese so fluently. I know that you always say that your Japanese is not as good as your Chinese, but I am a Japanese American born in Okinawa and raised in California and over the years my Japanese has become somewhat lazy and when I hear you speaking my native language I feel a bit inadequate and realize that I need to practice my conversational Japanese to regain what I am clearly losing. (shameful, I know). I need to go visit my mom so I can brush up on my Nihongo! You are a Gem!
Loving the videos. It’s absolutely true that anyone can do it. I have only studied for three levels at university level and am working to test advanced high ACTFL this summer, but nothing compares to the way people’s faces light up when you speak their language to them!
I am my biggest enemy!!!!, wisdom right there!! thanks for the encouragement! I speak spanish and english and would reallly love to learn Mandarin and Japanese at some point, I have already began with Japenese, you are a huge inspiration thanks!!!
This video left me with a big grin on my face. Those interactions were too cute! And the motivation, every time I finish watching your videos I put in an extra quick language study to my day. You're great!
I love your videos so much! They continue to inspire me to continue learning Japanese day after day. I can't get enough of showing your videos to my friends hahaha. Greetings from Campo Grande / Brazil!
I just love love love love love your personality and way of thinking!! You make the videos just to make people smile, to inspire others, and it's simply heartwarming! Instant fan here~ All the love from an aspiring polyglot from the Philippines!
@@OrientalPearl oh wow you've even visited here? It's great to know you enjoyed it here! Is it mainly because of the hot weather? Haha, I saw in your video that you aren't so fond of the cold
You’re awesome, loved that “anyone can learn a language intro and outro” I’m sure a lot of people appreciate the encouragement, including me
I'm glad you liked that. It was something that needed to be said.
Definitely true.
@@OrientalPearl crap
“Let’s see who we can make smile today” - love your efforts to be a greater energy in life. ✨
This girl is incredible... the way she speaks is so calming and passionate .. so humble ...she makes you want to be nice amd just go talk to a stranger.. love her !
“Sound issues: please read the subtitles”... errr I only ever read the subtitles.. haven’t got a clue what your saying otherwise 🤣👍🏻
That's most people that watch the channel. So, I didn't think it was such a big deal that the sound quality got messed up a little there.

That;s right. It's never easy, but hard work always pays off. Never give up.
I thought you were going to sing "I got bubble tea" Blue's Clues "We just got a letter" style and then say...
Wonder where it's from? 😜
So many people got that obscure reference. lol I'm surprised you knew it.
@@OrientalPearl Thanks again for responding to me. I'm a 90's kid so I had the best childhood of cartoons and music. 💞
@@Diana_Fire as a 2k4 kid, I gotta agree yall got the best childhood
Congrats to you Anming for what you are able to do - connect to others in a foreign dialect with such authenticity and sincerity! Always find your videos so fascinating and enjoyable hearing you speak and watching people’s responses. Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much! I'm really glad that so many people love and enjoy these videos!
Two years ago, I had for free in a Chinese store near here something for Christmas and a smile from the Chinese woman. The Chinese people here always smile when I speak to them in Chinese mandarin, I like that and I normally when I watch Chinese dramas on TH-cam I always disable the English subtitles. I write my diary in Chinese mandarin and I am thinking writing a song in Chinese one day...
Yes, they really love to hear people making an effort to learn their language. You can make friends really easily learning Chinese.
@@OrientalPearl one time I noticed the Chinese man in the store didn't speak Portuguese then I spoke to him in Chinese mandarin to be more easily and he smiled. I love smiles but because of the coroanavirus that stores are closed yet.
Another lovely video, makes me feel very happy during these tough times, thanks. I live in Scotland and things are getting a lot better. Warm greetings and much love from Scotland...
Hey Scotland. I hope things get better too.
你太牛逼了吧！會説中文和日文
9:48 THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU'VE EVER SAID.
Thank you..... it is worth the focus, the dedication, the purpose and vision and ambition.....when you later reap the rewards of your effort.
You are an inspiration to others and it is well deserved.
Love all your content. Please keep it up.
Hi Anming, very inspirational video today. Loved it. I'm going to work in Portugal in a few years. Thank you for the positive vibes. You are so humble as always. Have a great week.
Love your video, and a great message too. Always get something new to learn everyday after watched your video. Inspiring!
Alyssa, this was one of your best videos that I've seen. You're an inspiring young woman. I guess people say that natives appreciate the effort no matter what level you are at with learning their language.
Thanks so much Jeff. I hope it inspires people to work hard and learn the languages they've always wanted to know.
I like your messages in your videos. It's also cool that you make everyone laugh.
I’ve been watching many of your videos and they are so amazing it’s like we’re all goin on an adventure with you and the fact that you make people happy just by speaking their native language is cool❤️
Such wholesome videos keep on making these videos and stay safe :)
That's so much. You are welcome to join the adventure anytime.
OMG I love your videos! Actually I started to learn Chinese and you motivated me so much! It's so nice that Chinese people react so positive if you are speaking Chinese :) That's the best motivation for me, because I really like Chinese people :))
Yes, it truly is awesome. And amazing. And fun to watch the reactions. She said she wasn't giving you free food because of your Chinese, it was because you're cute. You're getting compliments from every direction. When I subscribed a couple months ago, you had less than ten thousand subscribers. Now look. I can't wait until you hit that 100,000 mark (and you will).
Thanks for being here for so long. You are one of the veterans because this channel really just started at the end of February. It's been fun. Let's see where it goes from here.
YOU ARE AWESOME! YOUR CHINESE LANGUAGE ABILITY IS GREAT. HOPE TO SEE YOUR NEXT VIDEO...THANKS.
Thank you! 😃 I just filmed the new one today.
@@OrientalPearl EXCELLENT. CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH. I ALREADY SUBSCRIBED YOUR CHANNEL, HOPE TO GET THE UPDATE SOON. BY THE WAY, YOU ARE VERY BEAUTIFUL.-- FROM BOSTON, MA USA.
the intro is so positive! it really gets you wanting to speak chinese, especially always seeing you have such friendly conversations with locals and seeing how much fun you have.
You could do it too. If you want it, go for it.
Oriental Pearl I definitely am going to attempt after I learn Portuguese! I’m actually picking up on random mandarin words when watching you now 😄
I just love your personality. I can watch you all day.
You are very smart and a very good inspiration to me and other people. I'm so glad you not a cocky person like some other people on TH-cam, and that's why I love your channel.
Japanese is easier at first, but gets harder and harder. Chinese is the opposite. It starts off hard and gets easier. Overall, Japanese is harder because advanced grammar in Japanese is very hard.
Another great video and glad you got free food for just being you Thankyou Anming
Dear Oriental Pearl, yes please, that would be very interesting to see some advanced Chinese and Japanese videos on this channel. Absopositively liked!
Ok! Coming up soon!
She is very talented and speaks well Japanese......I am Japanese but only have 6th grade knowledge of kanji writing and starting to forget a bit since I was raised in Southern California....so watching her encourages me......great job.
The comment you made at the end of the video about how "most people just don't want to give up their free time" is so so so true for me. For months I've chosen to watch Netflix or re-watch TH-cam videos I've already seen, instead of studying Korean which is my language of choice, when I just want to be able to do what you do. I really admire your language speaking abilities and the hard work it took to get there and it inspires me to study more. Love your content! Keep being you!
Let's hit the books :)
@@OrientalPearl I actually have been the last few days and your videos have inspired me to get back into it, because I really want to be fluent and communicate like you can with others, myself. Thank you!
This video was soooo cute! Their entire demeanor changed once you broke out the mandarin! These videos make me want to learn mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese, etc so bad. I should just start somewhere.
It really warmed my heart seeing you speak their language. It's like a breath of fresh air for them. You can tell they were super happy seeing a foreigner speak their language. I love your videos!
Thanks so much! I like to make people smile.
Great content. In this video, how to touch hearts of strangers regardless of language. Coming across as friendly, polite and humble. Really enjoyed it. I Look forward to the next video.
Thank you so much. I just filmed a new really good one today. I hope everyone likes it.
Oriental Pearl You’re welcome. :-)
I caught that blues clues reference when you got the bubble tea at 5:34. The unmistakable Blues Clues letter tune! x3 I love your channel and your mission!
You are a language rock star! Your videos are very interesting and entertaining, and your video editing skills are excellent. Keep up the great work!
Wow, thank you! I'm very new to editing.
Everybody in these videos are always so sweet, it'd be cool to meet more people like that. I'm trying to learn Japanese on my own because I eventually want to go to Japan and attend a language school
That's so cool that you want to come to language school. Find one that is focused on spoken Japanese not test--based Japanese. Many of the school just train students to pass a test. Look carefully otherwise you may pick the wrong type and be disappointed like I was.
@@OrientalPearl yeah I found one already! I just need to save up up enough money before I can actually start the application process. Hopefully within the next year or 2, I'll be there
You make speaking these languages look so easy and it's so impressive. Your the best.😊😊😊
Hello From Turkey I just want to say that you are great at doing what you do. Your tips and advices and the way you talk everything is so positive thank you. I am learning Japanese and about to start Chinese also. Keep making videos. You are the best I mean. Thank you.
Thank you Turkey!
Oriental Pearl thank you for making wonderful videos. Keep doing them. Please be safe and careful.
Agree, reading and writing Chinese is totally different ball game. Also agree that you gave up lot of your time study the language and even went to university in china. Keep inspiring people and making us laugh by your Pranks lol.
You've worked very long n hard to get where you are. I love the way you can switch from Chinese to Japanese, literally in the same sentence. You are very talented, even if you don't admit it yourself. Love watching your streams.😘
Thanks so much! It's be a long road, but a fun one too.
Anming, you are a real credit to yourself and your family. What a polygot and the people really appreciated your ability to speak without any accent. Wow, I can only speak Mandarin and would love to pick up Japanese and also Spanish and Dutch mainly for hockey as I am a hockey player and coach. Perhaps you should get your country's leaders to do likewise instead of being narrow minded. Keep the wonderful videos coming as for me it is a must watch every week. Love it and hope when the corona virus is over you can shoot over to China and meet up with Li Zhiqi and do a video together and I am sure your subscribers will shoot into the million mark.
I've seen a few of her videos. She's really incredibly famous in China and outside of China too.
@@OrientalPearl Yes, I know you mentioned it previously but if you visit her and have a chat with her or even get to sample her cooking, I can guarantee that overnight you will also be subscribed by her subscribers and you will reach a million subscribers no worries. Such is life. She has ten million followers and sometimes twelve or fifteen million viewers. She apparently earns about one million US per annum from having such a large viewer base. She is also incredibly kind as she donated a huge sum of money to fight the pandemic by purchasing ventilators, masks, etc.
Love the reactions, I'm addicted to your channel, makes me want to study Chinese too
Then the videos were worth making!
Thank you for your advice. I am trying to learn Chinese, and I know that learning any new language requires consistency. I am really happy to get motivation to keep learning Chinese everyday. Who knows maybe in a few months later, I can speak Chinese then jump to learn Japanese as I love Japan also.
Yes! I saw your videos and I've been studying Japanese for a week now. It's been very hard but also amazing how much I've learned. Never thought I could learn another language after failing at French in high school. The journey seems daunting but I hope I can continue. It would be incredible to communicate with people like you do.
I love the virtual journeys with the pearl. it's so exciting. Thanks for that. 🙏🏼
LOVE your content!!! Every time I watch one of your videos I get so envious. I love that you can speak both Chinese and Japanese so fluently. I know that you always say that your Japanese is not as good as your Chinese, but I am a Japanese American born in Okinawa and raised in California and over the years my Japanese has become somewhat lazy and when I hear you speaking my native language I feel a bit inadequate and realize that I need to practice my conversational Japanese to regain what I am clearly losing. (shameful, I know). I need to go visit my mom so I can brush up on my Nihongo! You are a Gem!
Thanks so much! I hope you learn Chinese too ;)
Loving the videos. It’s absolutely true that anyone can do it. I have only studied for three levels at university level and am working to test advanced high ACTFL this summer, but nothing compares to the way people’s faces light up when you speak their language to them!
I love the part where their faces light up too! That's the best feeling.
Inspirational! "People don't want to give up their freedom." GOOD POINT!! Right on the money!! Love your videos! Keep it up!
The truth had to be said lol. It's easier to say "I'm no good. I can't do it" than to make big time sacrifices.
I am my biggest enemy!!!!, wisdom right there!! thanks for the encouragement! I speak spanish and english and would reallly love to learn Mandarin and Japanese at some point, I have already began with Japenese, you are a huge inspiration thanks!!!
Love your videos! So fun, sweet and inspirational.
This video left me with a big grin on my face. Those interactions were too cute! And the motivation, every time I finish watching your videos I put in an extra quick language study to my day. You're great!
I signed up for the ChineseClass101. Thanks for the recommendation!
I'm so glad that you gave it a chance!
I love your videos so much! They continue to inspire me to continue learning Japanese day after day. I can't get enough of showing your videos to my friends hahaha. Greetings from Campo Grande / Brazil!
Thanks so much Brazil!
You finally doing the promotion links!! good on you!!
Yeah, I don't think people noticed that they have been there the entire time.
I just love love love love love your personality and way of thinking!! You make the videos just to make people smile, to inspire others, and it's simply heartwarming! Instant fan here~
All the love from an aspiring polyglot from the Philippines!
Hello Philippines. I'm so glad that you joined! Welcome to the channel. I enjoyed the Philippines when I went there last year.
@@OrientalPearl oh wow you've even visited here? It's great to know you enjoyed it here! Is it mainly because of the hot weather? Haha, I saw in your video that you aren't so fond of the cold
I really appreciate your opening message. This was a random youtube suggest that I like for once.
Thanks for watching Jim. I'm really glad that TH-cam finally got it right. Please stick around and watch some more videos. I made 62 of them.
Inspired and motivated I feel. Thank You for the positive vibe!! You are awesome : )
