Video creds - • ONLY IN MALAYSIA
Fyi, most Malaysians in the big cities speak good English. In the smaller towns, English is still spoken, but not ncessarily so fluent.
yup
It doesnt have to be fluent atleast they are trying
In the smaller state it's better to talk English to students who are still learning since they are still learning English.
Who need English when you have Manglish tho 😂 at least we Malaysian understand
@@traveladdict747 there start not speak real malay even each other
Malaysians also have a tendency to use multiple language in a sentence. One sentence can have English, Malay, and Chinese.
dont forget.. tamil language for indian..
Dey macha, one tea o ice, tapau ikat tepi. 😂😂😂
Yeah up to four languages in a sentence. In East Malaysia, sometimes even more languages 😊
And the many other dialects of the different races in Malaysia
@@Ryan-si2xv Yes quite a few sentences include Tamil, Punjabi, Hokkien, Cantonese and different Malay dialects.
Being msian we are living harmonies in multiculture, multireligion n multiracial n the people can speak at least 2 different language beside mother language
The Malaysian live in harmony , only the politics is toxic
@@leenoah2667 yu right 👈
@@leenoah2667 you are right.
Any drink packed in a plastic bag with a string tied to it....automatically taste 15% much nicer.
Weirdly enough it's also 15% cheaper too
It also have 15% more volume
All of that is weirdly true
15% more ice too
15% more anxiety that it will drop too
We wear reverse jacket because of the weather, sometimes the weather is very hot and sometimes the weather suddenly raining. Malaysia weather always hot and humid. Reverse jacket give some air flowing to our body to make us feel comfortable. 😆
Yup. And it does not flail around cuz of the wind when riding the motorcycle cuz zipped up normal wearing jacket can get you toasty
Just to share with you guys, most people in Malaysia speaks English. Although their accent is hugely based on who or what teaches them / influence them.
Most of my friends who have UK accent speaking teachers or mothers tend to speak with a more Queen's english kinda of accent.
But most of the others tend to watch more Western movies or box office Hollywood movies and have American accents. Other than that you also have the Manglish accent which is awesome and hilarious in a way that we Malaysians make fun of it but also use it as a medium to communicate lmao...
I'm a Malaysian. And I can speak fluent English properly. I approve this comment.
Actually the kid who ordered the food video is an American, his name is Greyson Chance if I'm not mistaken. He's grown up now.
Owh yg cover lagu lady gaga tu kan...
soo...?
@@MrGergasikuat that's why he has an American accent
yeah, and not related to the HitzFM DJs who were role playing with him
Malaysia is about mix.....mix culture ,mix food, mix accent ...... invisible Man rarely found this days... but the hand power....it's everywhere...😁 Malaysians love soccer, field hockey and badminton.....
Grayson must a be mixed blood.. hence the american accent.
@@kimmie5861 Grayson is a singer and songwriter in the US I think.🤗 She became he now
the "invisible man" is not that common actually. people would be furious nowadays when someone cut queue
Yeah I rarely see them nowadays. but there is a trend where a group of people sends only one person (representative) to stand in the line (while the others went to rest somewhere) & when almost at the counter, suddenly a lot of people appear out of nowhere. It got me irritated every time.
Ya, its true. Your bone will be crack if you do like this in malaysia, Fact 😂😂
agreed... nowadays, we do not tolerate such behavior
@@maaduufan5140 yea that happens alot but if it's their old mother or just their aged parents I won't mind since their knees have suffered enough lol.
that things alaways happened at atm, because of BSH and BPR.. 🤣🤣
We as malaysian
Do where our jacket backwards when riding our bikes, it creates like a wind break.
And the power of the hand!!! , It keeps us safe when jaywalking, as well is makes our security guards useless, you can just wave your hand and they'll let us through (p.s not all security guards are like that)
You will be very lucky if you come to Malaysia and find that invincible man, very rare......but the power of hand and the Boss you will experience it 😁
Can't believe the video doesn't point out our "-lah" culture
Ikr!! I try hard to not say lah but it's hard🤣
Got more leh, not only that mah
Boss is for a business owner. U don't call boss to anybody. While auntie and uncle are for elderly women or men stranger. For your real uncle or auntie... you call them with according to their sequence of order; 1st uncle (pak long), 2nd uncle (pak ngah) , 3rd auntie (mak cik) youngest auntie (mak su) depending on how many siblings your parents have
Boss is commonly used in Sabah to refer to anyone not necessarily a real Boss. I was called Boss when I visited a family in Kota Kinabalu. I was a little surprised but then everywhere I went in Sabah, they used the word Boss commonly.
@@samraj3179 OK... that's East Malaysia. They do things differently from the peninsular. Are u Malaysian tho?
@@aimisakee867 I don't think so. They have a mix of Malay and Indonesian words that they seem to be commonly use. Please don't generalise with your regional use. I have travelled all over Malaysia including the States of Sabah and Sarawak. Also been to both regions of Brunei as well as Indonesia. They all have different words to address people. Even throughout Peninsular Malaysia you will notice that. Boss appears to be of common usage now without really having a literal connotation. FYI, I am a Malaysian Citizen with vast experience in life, including the May 13 incident.
@@samraj3179 wow! If you've experienced May 13 then I should call you Uncle. Thanks for your insight. But I've visited all the states too except Sarawak. And Indonesia as well. 😉
yes, we do not call everyone boss, only to business owners... there's also "adik", "kak", "bang" used to address people on the streets or at shops etc
english learn in school is british or american english. marks wont get deducted is you use either spelling. and of course tv show influence. i remember watching angel, futurama, hey arnold when i was a kid. now netflix, tons of american show. you learn from there.
Interesting. I love Futurama and Hey Arnold! -Phezz
Same as me, love to watch American cartoons back in the day, now I speak English with both British and American accent, quite nervous for me to speak with Malaysian accent
At the invisible man part mean to we, Malaysian doesnt like to have fight.
About the "Free Gift" part, shop usually offer free gift(s) for the product they sell. Especially when you have several shops selling same product in one complex building.
The free gift would be the attraction for the buyer to buy the product from them instead of their competitors.
For example, last time I bough my smartphone, the shop offered tampered glass screen cover, a powerbank, that ring thing that you stick behind the phone and a selfie stick.
The last one, on sports it should have been .. we are multi racial but our love for sports unite us as one.
And on that note .. you should react to ULTRAS MALAYA@BOYS OF STRAITS.
At 12:52 you noticed the "cousin" spoke like an American. That is true. He's actually Greyson Chance.
Can you make a video of your hometown? Im sure everyone here love to see it✌️
Broo.. react to the ultras malaya theres a few video bit theres one that stand out
I agree....
Agree
200% agree
Share link here for easy to them choice . So many video about that
America dont like football
Its not all true abt the invisible man. I would tell him off straight in the face. Even in a cafe if the group talk loudly, i would tell them to tone down their voices. Its a nuisance you cant hear your conversation with your family.
"Its football, u play with your foot," Jeremy Clarkson
The invisible man isn’t that common and especially nowadays, people are more vocal. They’ll ask u to move to the back of the line lol.
We usually refer to servers and retail assistant as Boss. To give them respect and to get great service. Tipping isnt practiced in Malaysia.
We refer to all elders (not necessary related) as Aunties and Uncles.
That Invisible Man has become extinct. Now, if someone is in a hurry he has to ask for permission stating valid reasons. Malaysians do let pregnant ladies, elderly folks in front as a courtesy. Even in check out counters if someone has few items is let ahead if he seeks permission.
The Hand is a very powerful "tool" as it enables crossing streets easily besides multiple other uses.
The culture of asking for free gifts has become a norm as businesses provide free gifts to promote the sales of their products. Thus the buyers have got accustomed and demand/request it. Just for buying a detergent, one scans the isle for a brand that provides a gift.
Boss = owner
Auntie = ahn tee = a lady who is senior to you
Uncle = ahn kel = a man who is senior to you
chinese/ asian tradition = call/greet an elder upon coming into contact even if it's a stranger
use = when entering the house of an auntie/ uncle, when calling out to an auntie/ uncle
The absolute worst are the invisible drivers who have turned a single driving lane into two, refuse to let you cut in, cut in from 4 lanes out while crossing a white line, jump out of the queue only for them to cut back in further up front and commit various other offenses without acknowledging your dagger eyed stare or the blaring of your horn.
Hello admin welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾♥️.
Malaysia's culinary culture is very unique..
It's true. A lot of guys in urban areas do speak with an American accent. Probably due to the influence of American films and TV. Then there are those with a British accent as well.
If you buy a car and they don't give you an Umbrella for it, they have a problem.
Buy new aircondition, also get free gift, like a set of food container. 🤣
@@syigloo i got steamer😂😂
Seriously, they do. 😆
I renew my road tax n insurance i got free gift an umbrella. They gave me a tshirt with the perodua logo, i told them why give me tshirt coz im not into promoting perodua cars. So finally she gave me an umbrella. Was happy. Umbrella for rainy days as the weather here is hot and it rains often. Very satisfied with the gift.🙂
The last part is about, Most Malaysian is die hard for football aka soccer, most of us follow Premier league and our own favorite team...so we always talk trash to the rival of our favorite team but it comes to our national team, we all will come together to support our national team
7:24 The invincible man actually pretty rare nowadays but there always be that at least one person in public that always does that. Taking others people seat and the toilet seat is accurate but cutting the line at the cinema is rare. Cutting lines usually happens at school canteens and I'm that GUY who always does it.
Fun Fact: Malaysians is stupidly creative. We remix our prime minister's speech and make a song about MCO (Movement Control Order). As a Malaysian, its kinda sick and scary at the same time just thinking about it 😂😂😂
we're waiting for you mate.from MALAYSIA.
MALAYSIA BOLEH🇲🇾🇲🇾
Calling auntie, boss, sister, or brother or also become usual here in Philippines specially in Mindanao area..😂😂😂hahaha sometimes they call cousin even though they are not relatives😂😂😂
America and malaysia make peace
Boss, uncle and auntie is not a term of familiarity like 'bro' is... Respect is build inherently into our culture. That's what it is... Everyone should be respected so 'boss' for proprietors and 'uncle' and 'auntie' for elderly people..like a family
Feel proud to be a malaysian :D
A few day ago I talk to my hubby... Lelama mamat commodity ni review spi ke bola (soccer) jugak karang... Now... U ar on the way. Review JDT bro.
The most powerful amount in Malaysia is "5".
I was driving through a street where both sides are markets (Air Itam pasar), I had to be very slow because it is a 2 way traffic, and the pedestrian is at most 5cm away from my rear mirror. There was an old lady crossing the street about 5 meters ahead of me, stood there, held up the "5", make me completely stop my car, and then she proceed to cross the road very slowly.
Pleaseeeee react to ‘How to know you’re Malaysian’ by themingthing
Here everyone is boss or uncle or auntie we use this 3 words outta respect
like people who are much older than you
so in malaysia boss is a very extremely common word
And also you can call people like teens outta respect call them " lengzai ( for handsome ) (male ) " and "lenglui ( for beautiful ) (female) "
the "invisible man" is actually people taking advantage of Malaysians who usually don't like to make a big deal out of things. Like, if we see one guy cutting in line, we'd be like 'whatever, just 1 guy'. The worst we would do is give you a dirty look or curse just loud enough for you to hear. It's not very common but it's something every Malaysian would experience once in a while.
Calling Boss,uncle(pakcik) auntie(makCik),about respect each other humble your self
Damn man, you guys nailed it with the inside joke there!
dude next video show us your town.I just want to know, did you guys more to baseball or american football.
They are both pretty popular, because we have the Dallas Cowboys and the Texas Rangers nearby!
That boy who ordered food was Greyson Chance 8 years ago....
Ha, he's from Texas. 😆

From a former salesman, Malaysia does like to ask for free gift! Even they buy super things still ask for free gifts.
10:03 its that Vince?! Malaysian singer?
Malaysia wishes peace upon you and all mankind. Humans have a tendency to develop a certain ability to describe, analyze and resolve some of the most bewildering social phenomena. This innate ability could be thought of as a key to understanding the super complex reality of life and living. Fundamental changes in human perception occur in the way we understand reality or truth. Without such paradigmatic shift, and in the absence of any significant criticism and deconstruction, our understanding becomes fixated in so called conventional wisdom, which may not necessarily be consistent or congruent with the unfolding reality or evolving truth. Special to visit Malaya (Malay Kings), Singapore (First World) , Sarawak (Remnants of White King), Brunei (Malay Muslim King) and Sabah (Beauty natural environment and ecosystem). Also you can find many Hindu, Buddhist temples and varieties of Chinese temples. Good written and spoken English in Sarawak, Sabah, Brunei and Singapore. Most big cities could also read and write in English. Enjoy and come again many times and remember to learn Bahasa Melayu (Malaya, Sarawak, Sabah, Brunei and Singapura) where majority of them forgotten.
I also reacted to this someone requested to me to do it
Please react Malaysian girl group:
Dolla - Dolla make you wanna
