For the longest time I’ve always seen Americans as bad at languages because most of them have a monolingual background. It’s refreshing to see someone who’s actually aware of languages and geography. And considering she is monolingual she actually did a good job distinguishing those accents so good job very smart lady
The lady of US did a good job guessing most of them , even when she got "wrong" Malaysia 🇲🇾 when they lady said she lived in Singapore as well , excellent Brooke 😂
but both of those countries also have multiple ethnic groups with quite distinct accents. so, that's difficult she got the region right haha not sure why she thought 3 is pakiszani though
@@ThorNado24 bo ho sey la😆 they should invite someone who can speak both language malay&english fluently. Haiyaaa Here in Malaysia they mostly dont know how to speak malay fluently then claim themselve as a Malaysian and participated such program. They should be shame. We might be same as Malaysian but we malay and chinese is different whenever we speak english. She exposed english malaysia as chinese people not the nationality..Malaysia.
Indians & Filipinos' English accents are quite distinct for the world's English speakers, as these two countries are the main source of overseas Call Centres Support. Many people around the English speaking world would have had "familiar" with their accents, from the 1990 - 2023.
I'm a malaysian and I instantly recognized my fellow accent. Also indian and philippines is easy as well since their accent is stronger. Was thinking 3 was japanese or taiwanese until the part where she talks about her favourite color, the singlish just went wild haha
Are you sure?! Please do some research before speaking lies! The only group of Filipinos who got that weird thick accent are the Tagalogs and the uneducated on es who learned English from the street! The rest speaks like perfect American accent!
I’m singaporean. And I wouldn’t have guessed #3 was singapore. Not to invalidate her. It was a possible accent. But in my circles, it’s not a common accent. Singapore may be small, but there are very distinct accents (along a continuum) especially between socio-ethnic groups
Ya her accent is so not like most Singaporeans. The Malaysian girl spoken more like a Singaporean. Not surprising as both countries speaks English the same.
The give away was the attempt to try to be clear with their pronunciation and everything goes wrong when they put an extra R at the end of words without a R OLIVIA not OLIVIER I agree there’s different accents within Singapore but I’ve noticed this trend even amongst the different accents
Philippines and Indian accent has their very distinctive sound sound she really did not have a hard time with those two. Still the way she was able guess Hong Kong was extremely impressive for a westerner. Most people dont know even the existence of Cantonese. Also, did anyone else thought the Singapore one sounded like Japanese speaker on the first line?
@@IOADESTOYER yeah but the usual "chinese" people think about there in the states seems to usually be historically cantonese or taishanese and now these days, mandarin cuz a lot of mandarin migrants there these days. the names of the chinese food there in the states are mostly in cantonese, like chop suey, dim sum, wonton, bok choy, kumquat, chow mein, yi mein, lo mein, etc.
💮THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God is saving man from the imminent destruction of this old world" "Destinations and consequences. No Body Shall Escape the Day of Wrath.". .. (Although now are the last days, you must know that "the last days" is only a name of an age: like the Age of Law and the Age of Grace, it points to an age, and signs the totality of an age, rather than the last few or months. The work for the last days will not be done in Israel, but in the Gentiles; this is the conquest of the people from all countries and tribes outside of Israel before My throne, so that the glory in the entire universe can fill the entire Cosmos. My work will only last six thousand year, and I promise that evil's hold of all humanity will not last more than six thousand years. And so, it is time that I will not continue or delay any more: in the last days I will conquer Satan, I will recover all My glory, and I will recover all the souls on earth that belong to Me. I will keep the remaining third part the third part that loves Me and completely submits to Me, and I will make them fruitful and multiply in the land as the Israelites did under the Law, feeding them with plenty of sheep and cattle and all resources of the earth. They came from every country and denomination, and every place and town, throughout the universe. They are of different races, different languages, customs and skin colors, and they scattered in all countries and denominations throughout the world, and be in every corner of the world. Soon, they will come together to build the perfect humanity, the meeting of humanity that Satan's forces cannot reach.) Almighty God said NOW, I TELL you for the SAKE of YOUR SALVATION, that My WORK may PROGRESS PROPERLY, and that My FIRST WORK in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE may be PERFORMED more APPROPRIATELY and COMPLETELY, My WORDS, AUTHORITY, MAJESTY REVEAL, and JUDGMENT to the PEOPLE of ALL TOWNS and COUNTRIES. My WORK with you is the BEGINNING of My work THROUGHOUT the UNIVERSE. Although NOW are the LAST DAYS, you must KNOW that "THE LAST DAYS" is only a name of an age: LIKE the AGE OF LAW and the AGE OF GRACE, it points to an age, and SIGNS the TOTALITY of an age, RATHER than the LAST FEW YEARS or MONTHS. ☀️ But the last days are not like the Age of Grace and the Age of Law. The WORK for the LAST DAYS will NOT be DONE in ISRAEL, but in the GENTILES; this is the CONQUEST of the PEOPLE from all COUNTRIES and TRIBES OUTSIDE of ISRAEL before My THRONE, so that the GLORY in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE can FILL the ENTIRE COSMOS. ☀️ This is to gain greater glory, so that all creation on earth can pass My glory to every nation, to all generations forever, and all creation in heaven and earth can see all the glory that I have gained on earth . The WORK PERFORMED in the LAST DAYS is the WORK of OPPRESSION. ☀️ This is NOT the GUIDANCE of ALL PEOPLE on EARTH but the CONCLUSION of NO DESTRUCTION and THOUSAND YEARS of SUFFERING LIFE of HUMANITY on EARTH. Because of this, the WORK of the LAST DAYS CANNOT be SIMILAR to SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS of WORK in ISRAEL, nor CAN it be SIMILAR to the DECADES of WORK in JUDEA that CONTINUED for SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS until GOD'S SECOND INCARNATION. 🙏 LAST DAY PEOPLE only EXPERIENCE the RE-APPEARANCE of the REDEEMER in the FLESH, and they ACCEPT GOD'S PERSONAL WORKS and WORDS. 🙏 It will not be two thousand years before the last days of the end come; They are short, just as Jesus carried out the works during the Age of Grace in Judea. ☀️ This is BECAUSE the LAST DAYS are the CONCLUSION of the ENTIRE TIME. These are the COMPLETE and the END of GOD'S SIX-THOUSAND-YEAR PLAN of GOD'S GOVERNMENT, and these are the END of MANKIND'S LIFE'S JOURNEY of SUFFERING. 🙏 They do NOT bring HUMANITY into the NEW AGE or ALLOW HUMANITY'S LIFE to CONTINUE. 😪 That has NO SIGNIFICANCE for My GOVERNMENT PLAN or for HUMAN EXISTENCE.

So that these SUFFERING SOULS can LOSE in the SEA of SUFFERING, and thus END My ENTIRE WORK on EARTH. 🙏 BEGINNING this DAY, I will NEVER INCARNATE on EARTH, and My DOMINANT SPIRIT will NEVER AGAIN. I will ONLY do ONE thing on EARTH: I will CHANGE HUMANITY, HOLY HUMANITY, and My FAITHFUL CITY on EARTH. 🙏 BUT you should KNOW that I will NOT ELIMINATE the whole WORLD, I will NOT ELIMINATE the ENTIRE HUMANITY. I will KEEP the REMAINING THIRD PART the THIRD PART that LOVES Me and COMPLETELY SUBMITS to Me, and I will MAKE them FRUITFUL and MULTIPLY in the LAND as the ISRAELITES did under the LAW, FEEDING them with PLENTY of SHEEP and CATTLE and all RESOURCES of the EARTH. 🙏 This PERSON shall REMAIN with Me FOREVER, BUT it is NOT the WICKED FILTHY PERSON of TODAY, BUT the PERSON GATHERED from My WORD PROCEEDS. 🙏 That PEOPLE will NOT be DAMAGED, INTERRUPTED, or ENCOVERED by SATAN, and they are the ONLY PEOPLE that will REMAIN on EARTH AFTER I have VICTORY AGAINST SATAN. This is the PERSON I have NOW OVERCOME and GOT My PROMISE. 🙏 And THEREFORE, the HUMANITY that is SUBJECTED in the LAST DAYS is also the HUMANITY that WILL be SAVED and will ACHIEVE My ETERNAL BLESSINGS. This WILL be the ONLY PROOF of My VICTORY AGAINST SATAN, and the ONLY SPOILS of My FIGHT against SATAN. The SPOILS of WAR I have SAVED from SATAN'S COVERAGE, and are the ONLY COMPLETEMENT and FRUIT of My SIX-THOUSAND-YEAR REIGN PLAN. 🙏 They CAME from EVERY COUNTRY and DENOMINATION, and EVERY PLACE and TOWN, THROUGHOUT the UNIVERSE. They are of DIFFERENT RACES, DIFFERENT LANGUAGES, CUSTOMS and SKIN COLORS, and they are SCATTERED in ALL COUNTRIES and DENOMINATIONS throughout the WORLD, and be in EVERY CORNER of the WORLD. Soon, they will COME TOGETHER to BUILD the PERFECT humanity, the meeting of HUMANITY that SATAN'S FORCES cannot REACH. ☀️🙏 Those of HUMANITY who are NOT SAVED and SUBJECTED by Me WILL SINK SILENTLY into the DEPTH of the SEA, and be BURNED by My BURNING fire FOREVER. 😪 I WILL DESTROY this OLD, and WHOLE DEFILEMENT of MANKIND, as I DESTROYED the FIRST-BORN SONS and CATTLE in Egypt, LEAVING ONLY the ISRAELITES, who EAT mutton, DRINK mutton's BLOOD, and STAMP BLOOD of the LAMB on their doorposts.

@@izzrafael2591 What is there to laugh about? The reason for this is, India and the Philippines are on the top five English Speaking countries in the world today (as a second language, such as the Philippines has two languages, Primary is Tagalog and English is second, . The Philippines has been under the US since 1898. Some Asian countries go to the Philippines to learn English. I remember an English teacher of mine from the Philippines who said that she was one of the first teachers in English in Singapore. iThey hired many of them because Singaporeans did not know English then a few decades ago.
I can see why she didn't exactly get Singapore and Malaysia right, because both countries used to be one country called Malaya under the British at one time, the cultures and language spoken is very very close. Even the way English is spoken and the accents would have been challenging to tell apart. The 2 countries are very close in proximity, the land crossing between Singapore and Malaysia is one of the busiest in the world, and Singaporeans and Malaysians often have family in either country. So Singapore and Malaysia would have been a huge challenge, and even more so when you consider that both countries have multi-cultural Chinese, Malay and Indian populations as citizens, among other ethnicities. So yes, BIG challenge there! The other 3 English accents from the Philippines, Hongkong and India are definitely more distinct. I'm from Singapore, and sometimes it's hard for me to tell Singapore and Malaysia accents apart when both are speaking English. It's like how it's sometimes hard to tell a Canadian from an American, 'cos the accents sound quite close.
As Malaysia is predominately of 68% Malay-origin, they should invite a Malay-Muslim ethnicity girl to present "Malaysia", as a Malay girl's spoken English will be quite distinct because of the Malay-Austronesian Langue influences & accent. Although the Chinese-Malaysian accent is also quite distinct, but this girl who has grown up in Singapore will not be a very good sample representation for Chinese-Malaysian Accent English, for that matter. For the record as of 2022, Singapore is ranked number 1 in Asia for English proficiency, followed by Malaysia. And as for the last girl from Hong Kong, i was very impressed by her spoken English because she doesn't has the "Hongkie-Cantonese-accent" -- good for her.
@@nickgoh8947nope. She does have Hong Kong accent and it’s too obvious. Just because Singapore is ranked number one it doesn’t mean the whole nation speak the same way anyway.
@@tevikumares5022 of course if a singaporean learn and are quiet fluent in certain accent, they will sound different. but it's also correct that singaporean do have their own way on speaking english.
i feel with singapore and malaysia, you'll need to have them talk longer to be able to discern their accents. putting those two next to each other was definitely a challenge. it wasn't until jing talked about her favourite colour that i could tell she was SG. while the accents are _similar_ the slang they use, the arrangement of the words, their intonation and etc are different from MY. this was a really cool video tho, US guest was really good at guessing and describing accents. linguist perhaps?
The thing with Singaporean is they have two different accents when speaking casually and formally. I can tell the singaporean girl try so hard to speak formally, if she try speak like she speak to her friend im sure everybody can guess it.
A good tricky one would be a korean person who learned fluent english the philippines. A lot of the times, you cant distinguish them from a filipino. That could make it a fun twist for these kinds of video.
Fish time of someone from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 on World Friends , cool , but i think the best part of the video is the new US member , what a smart and lovely lady , she guessed right way more than she could thought 😊
As a Malaysian who went through public school and university in England, and practised as a London Barrister, I think my English language proficiency is up to UK standard. Unfortunately, when I was applying to Georgia Tech for a Masters degree, they said that their regulations stated that only graduates from American universities or citizens from a small set number of countries like UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand were deemed to be able to satisfy their English language entry requirements. When I politely and sarcastically wrote back to them questioning their logic, they insisted that because I was not a British citizen, I still had to do the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) to prove my English language proficiency!
Only graduates from American universities and not British universities satisfy their English language requirements? And I thought that the English language originated from England and not the USA?
I'm a Malaysian, Cantonese tribe. Funny thing is, English is actually my first language. All other languages/dialects that I speak fluently, which includes Malay, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, they are all translated from English straight from my mind, as English is my thought-process. I had to take TOEFL/IELTS after my college days, for my application into UK/US universities. I ended up in US for my under/post grad.
As I had my education in the UK, I actually put English as my first language in an application to another American university. But as my citizenship was still Malaysian, they refused to accept that English was my first language and said that as a Malaysian, my first language was Malay! Go figure :) @@yskwong
1:16 I think what many foreigners don’t understand that English speakers from these countries are not on the same situation like Koreans or Japanese speaking English, because unlike in Korea or Japan, English is actually an official language where they come from. In their counties, the language is used as the medium of instruction at school. In countries like India, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and the Philippines, English is so important that for some segments of the population it becomes their first language. It’s the language they use at home with their family. So they ARE native speakers, just like any other native speakers from the US or from the UK. I personally know people from Malaysia and Singapore who speak English as their first language, but they still retain their uniqueness, which is why they call their brand of English: Manglish and Singlish. They have their own vocabulary and sentence structures that are unique to them. That being said, I wouldn’t be able to differentiate between Singlish and Manglish speakers either. But India and Philippines here is a dead giveaway. 😁 It’s really different from, say, my own country Indonesia, where English is considered a foreign language just like French, Russian, Dutch, Vietnamese or Swahili.
Malaysia and Singapore speak English, Malay, Tamil, and English. #2 is from Malaysia and #3 is from Singapore, though their accents are different. Like Malay and mandarin influences.
Yeah all of these countries where at one point part of the British Empire and The Phillipines were controlled by the Americans after the Spanish were kicked out. I imagine Malaysians closer to the border sound more similar to singaporeans anyway.
Hard to distinguish between Malaysians, Singaporeans and Cantonese because they all have Chinese accent when speaking in English. It would be a bit challenging to guess India if a Pakistani was added to the mix. Filipino accent is way too unique among other English speaking Asian countries I can't think of a certain group of people from Asia that would sound the same as them.
@@darkmoney7762 Malaysians and Singaporeans don't have a Chinese accent and the Malaysian and Singaporean accents are actually very different to Chinese accents.
@@user-jt3dw6vv4xGuess you're right. Perhaps I'm just more exposed to Malay-Chinese and Singaporean Chinese that it has become like my general perception of Malay and Singaporean English accents. And everytime I hear Chinese speak English, they pronounce sentences as if they don't have spaces which is what I also hear from Malay-Chinese and Singaporean Chinese.
If that Indian was from NorthEastern states, it would have been much more difficult to guess her out, by speak or by looks. Not everyone speaks Hindi in India.
I hate when I couldn’t even byhard the hindi alphabets in my notheast state,hopefully I was in 9th grade currently and hindi was excluded from 9th grade onwards😂
#1, #4 and #5 were quite obvious after a few sentences of speaking. #2 was either Malaysia or Singapore, because that's how it sounds like over there. #3 was definitely not a good example of Singapore. Even I thought she was from Taiwan with that cutesy voice, and that's likely why Brooke guessed Japan initially, except she didn't have problems with b/v and r/l. But Pakistan?
As someone born in Singapore who has Hong Kong ancestry and friends, no.2 sounds more Singaporean than no. 3. No.3 sounds like she was not born in Singapore, but probably from China. No.5 doesn't sound like a Hong Kong accent. I thought she was from China too.
Nope. No 3 was educated in jurong primary school and grows up in Singapore and she may have spoken singlish but she decided to change her English to make everyone understand her. No 5 on the other hand sounds very Hong Kong.
@tevikumares5022 Stop spreading your lies everywhere. #3 is from Malaysia and she moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains her weird twang. No Singaporeans speak like that. Singaporean mandarin sounds different from Malaysian mandarin so even mandarin-speaking Singaporeans don’t sound like that when speaking English.
First time to leave a comment on TH-cam. Glad to see someone from Hong Kong but not only from China anymore. As many of you may not know, Cantonese actually has much longer history than Mandarin. It keeps more ancient Chinese characteristics than Mandarin. So it’s much more interesting to compare it with other Asian languages.
Cantonese does not have a longer history that is disingenious. What you mean to say is Cantonese retains more of the original sounds of Middle Chinese. Mandarin is also an evolution of Middle Chinese, but is the dominant one spoken in the North China Plain. Yue aka Cantonese only split off and diverged from the North China Plain during the Song to Yuan Dynasties from Middle Chinese. In a way, it would be more accurate to say Mandarin is older than Cantonese if we were to carry on with this line of thinking, as Cantonese split from Middle Chinese in 1000 ad approx. Tl;dr: You cannot say Cantonese is older than Mandarin as they both share the same roots. It is however true Cantonese is like a FOSSIL for what Chinese used to sound like.
@@sw36jl Cantonese does have longer history and also keeps more characteristics of ancient Chinese. The earliest record would be the time that Qin Shi Huang conquered the Baiyue and brought the ‘Yayan’ (so-called authentic Chinese at that time) there. Another significant period would the time that of the Upheaval of the Five Barbarians（304-316). Many people, especially the rich people and the scholars ran from the north to the south. These people were relatively insistent about their traditions, cultures and language. They bulit walls to surround their homes and intentionally isolated themselves from the others. To a certain extent, these made ancient Chinese was well kept in the Southern China than the Northern China. It eventually mixed with some local dialects and developed into Cantonese. On the other hand, the language in the Northern China (or the Central plains) was merged with many other languages of the Barbarians because of wars, immigrations, etc. And then eventually become Mandarin that people speak nowadays. To be fair, none of them can be called the Authentic Chinese’ but they do develop from the same origin. However, Mandarin is mixed with other languages dialects more than the Cantonese does. So it would be more interesting to study Cantonese if you are intrigued how the ancient Chinese sounds.
I speak Cantonese, i'm from Hong Kong. I hate mainland mandarin. But just stop these Cantonese propaganda. We love our language. But language is language. Average hong konger don't know much about the language, stop pretend like you know Cantonese is better. What if someone proves that Hakka is objectively better than Cantonese? Make similar to the "real Chinese" "more traditional" "kept the most traditional phonetic features so it's the best for 唐詩" Do we all just switch to Hakka and dump Cantonese? We love Cantonese because we grow up speaking it. And Hong Kong had its best time with its cultural export. That's it.
Number 3 doesn’t have a common Singaporean accent. She sounds foreign; most Chinese Singaporeans don’t sound like that. Even if she’s not Chinese she still doesn’t sound Singaporean
The plain and simple truth is this tevikumares account and jennylawrence are both her and she is a foreigner going around masquerading as a Singaporean then trying to bash anyone who calls her out.
In Malaysia and Singapore we also have "bahasa rojak(mix languages)" basically combined languages of Malay,English,Mandarin,Tamil or others native languages.
I live in Singapore for 25 yrs...and I cannot guess the number 3. Shes probably from Mainland China and migrated to Singapore. The common accent for Singaporean is actually number 2.
Explain why she was educated in jurong primary school and grew up in Singapore? And explain why her surname Quah is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only?
@tevikumares5022 So it turns out that she’s actually a Malaysian who lived in Singaporean since a young age. But the accent is unmistakable. Chinese is her first language.
@@ABC-ed8cg exactly my point. Just because someone who speaks Chinese as her first language it doesn’t mean she is from China. Close to 29 percent of Singaporeans speak Chinese as their first language so who are you to judge anyway?
I actually thought no.2 sounds more singaporean than no.3. But No 2 is Malaysian and I believe No 3 may have come from Singapore and prob have lived in S'pore for quite some time but not Singaporean. She sounds hesitant when she speaks, unlike most educated Singaporeans who speak English like they firing a machine gun. And then she said her name is Jing, so most likely a Chinese immigrant that have been in Singapore for quite some time. Singaporean Chinese don't usually have a name that goes by Jing which sounds more like a mainland chinese name but she looks more Japanese. Also a Singaporean don't usually speak in such soft manner.
With all due respects, I have seen many Singaporean Chinese using pinyin given names and not every Singaporean Chinese is going to speak the same accent anyway
Actually, a lot of young Chinese singaporean given names are pin-yin based. For instance, their surname can be "Ng" which is a Cantonese sounding surname, but their given name is in Pin-yin, which is based on Mandarin.
To me she sounds like she’s the 2nd or 3rd generation of her family who migrated from China. Probably studied in a Chinese school and doesn’t interact much with other races when growing up.
And by the way please explain why she was educated in jurong primary school and grew up in Singapore and her surname Quah is only found in Malaysia and Singapore?
For me, #2 sounds like singaporean and malaysian chinese. The way they speak quite similar. Malay english sounds a bit different. But i never guess #3 is from singapore. I thought no. 3 is from korea or japan. lol 😂
The singaporean doesn't sound singaporean and i'm from singapore 😅 She was likely borned in China and then migrated here thus the hint of china accent that everyone is talking about in the comment section.
The thing that sets it apart from all the other accents in this group is that it's distinctly AMERICAN. Philippine English is based on (General) American English, as a former American colony, and it is distinctly rhotic (the R is pronounced before consonants). It is most similar to the English accents in the Pacific Islands. In contrast to India, Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong, which are based on (RP) British English as former UK colonies. They are non-rhotic (the R disappears before consonants, so words like "farm" would be pronounced like "fahm").
@@jisookruzat What are you even talking about. That's exactly how "stare" is pronounced with a General American accent, which again, is what Philippine English is based on. In BRITISH English, it becomes something like "steh".
She is actually very much on point of her observation. But for Filipinos born and raised in the US, they kind of adopt the intonation in the US, so it will become a bit tricky in that aspect.
Not gonna lie, the US lady did an excellent job! She must be genius that her guess close to 70% accurate? She guessed the num. 2 was from MY on the first, but it's probbly cause her (num. 2) accent was too influenced by the singlish accent which still strong though, then the US lady changed her bet. For num. 3 it's sounds like her accent was slightly differ from the common SG accent, maybe (?) Since i have several friends from SG, and their accent sounds different than this one. Then means no chance.
Honestly, its quite hard to tell apart the Malaysian and Singaporean english accent, they're really quite similar. The shortened words and the flow are very close. When I travel, its easy to recognise a Malaysian or Singaporean when they start speaking, but gets more difficult pin pointing which of these two countries they are from. Infact, just listen to the question asking about their favourite colour, you can clearly tell no.3 was speaking either Singlish or Manglish, no other two countries speak this way.
you can't really tell a Singaporean from the accent of our spoken English. We have so many different races here that all of us actually have different accents. You can however tell a Singaporean from our sentence syntax. Give us free reign to speak and you can pick us out in a crowd based on how our sentences are structred.
As a Singaporean, I would say number 3's accent is not good representation of Singaporeans. She sounds like she grew up in a Chinese-speaking family or she was not born or raised here.
And that’s cos #3 is actually from Malaysia but moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains the weird twang. Singaporean mandarin is different from Malaysian mandarin. Hence, even with the interference of a strong Chinese accent, the English from mandarin-speaking individuals from both countries will sound different.
"India and Philippine's accent is very distinct".. dude, wherever you go, there will always be an Indian or a Filipino in the workforce, tech, or medical. How can you not get used to it. Shoutout to my Indian brothers and sisters out there! Lol
If you mean by distinct is recognizable nobody can argue with that if comparing the two nationality by thier accent. Filipino has more docile tongue compare to Indians who are more rigid.
That is NOT a Singaporean accent. I was HORRIFIED when she revealed she was from Singapore. Please do not believe that's what a Singaporean sounds like.
I'm impressed she did that well. I watched with my eyes closed and India/Phillipines were obvious from the first second. I guessed Malaysia/Indonesia/Singapore for 2 and Chinese for 3. I thought 5 was Thai at first, but as soon as she said Hongkong I knew she was right.
If you want to see this in a historical background, Singaporean Malaysian Indian and Hong Kongers use British spelling due to them being former British Colonies while the Filipino uses American English spelling since the Philippines was a commonwealth of the United States 1898-1946. For the Malaysian in the video she's a Singapore Airlines crew
I swear... It gets even more confusing being Singaporean now that Gen Zs are adults. Millennial and older Singaporeans would sound very similar to the Malaysian lady. Stronger Chinese/Malay/Tamil accent. The Gen Z Singaporeans are so mixed(race)+ New citizens+ consume so much tiktok till they somehow adopted all sorts of accent which sounds kinda odd at times. I have to admit, amongst the younger gen, I don't even know who's Singaporean and who's foreigner anymore in my own country.
There are way more similarities than differences. To an outsider, they all sound the same. So you do have an Indian accent. Nothing wrong with it. Get over it.
@@DipJyotiDeka If they are unfamiliar with English, sure. Highly unlikely that Australian and British English will sound similar to most English speakers.
@@KR-ff4tu I don't know where you got those stats but India has the 2nd largest number of English speakers after US. So pardon if someone could not find out the difference between the Australian and British accents, much like you could not find out the regional differences in "Indian English".
@@DipJyotiDeka What stats? I haven’t mentioned any. What’s the number of English speakers in Indian got to do with their ability to distinguish between accents? There’s no true or false, it’s perception, not physics. Didn’t say I couldn’t distinguish between accents within India. I’m part Indian and have spent time there, so I can. My point was Indians feel inferior and get defensive when someone points out their accent, just like you did. The French and the Italians don’t, why do you?
Lady 2 is a better representative of a malaysian (or singaporean since she spent so much time in singapore) who is skilled in 'standard english' that is used when speaking to non-malaysian/singaporeans. 'standard english' lacks many elements in singlish and manglish. Lady 3 is less skilled in switching to 'standard english' and you can say that she is more representative of what a typical singaporean local sound like when they are speaking english
My own guess based on their accent . 1.) India (Definitely her looks and accent) 2.) Singapore (Based on her personality, I have no idea Singapore is but I know most Singaporean is like half chines and Korean looks) 3.) Japan (Based on her aura and action the way she speak) 4.) Philippines (My Hometown so I know) 5.) Indonesia ( I'm based on her personality )
Jing from Singapore is definitely not 100% native Singaporean, she sounds more like a China-born native who had picked up English in her schooling years while growing up in a predominantly-Chinese-speaking household. Malaysian Hazeline definitely has the more-recognisable Singlish twang, that comes from hanging around with Singlish-speaking locals all the time. Source: native Singaporean here
Explain her surname Quah which is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only? And not to mention there are older generations of Singapore can't speak English let alone Singlish
I love how you can distinguish those accents and not being racist. Im from the Philippines and live in the US but sometimes I get push back because of my accent. But i know for a fact that we can construct an English language with perfect grammar unlike those who are born and raised in the US.
Wtf is racist about stating what their expression about foreign English language. Gtfo with your woke nonsense. Everything is snowflakes and sensitive with you all!
@@thebukojoeplays I live in the US half of my life and most Americans think they speak English better compared to other nationalities. The reason I think is because they were born in U.S. and they have this belief that no matter what they say it is a perfect English. I myself is not good in grammar when it comes to verbal English but I still can compare someone speaking grammatically good English. Here it comes.......most Americans suck in English. Peace.
I was also very surprised a Singaporean girl would would talk like that too, but let's not argue over her representing Singapore. This channel is supposed to bring people together not divide them, so welcome newcomer Jing and all others. I find the American girl Brooke very amazing when figuring out #5. First guess was maybe Vietnam but at the end switched to Hong Kong, a small city yet very distinct. She probably has met some HKers before and come across our accent. The HK girl's way of pronouncing 'cute' should give her away as it is totally the British one. Brooke caught that detail and nailed it. You're so awesome Brooke.
Number 3 didn't have what I would call a typical Singaporean accent. Its not to the fault of the guesser, I don't think I would have gotten it myself and I'm Singaporean.
Yea coz she's actually a new citizen originally from Malaysia, doesnt speak English as her first language.. her accent already formed before she migrated to Singapore, that's why she doesn't sound Singaporean..
Drew-es7hy the audacity of someone who created too many YT accounts just to bash her when clearly she is way more successful than you so it's you who is being sour about her instead
@@tevikumares5022 lol bashing her? In what way am I bashing her? All I and another commenter said is that her accent is not typical Singaporean. That's not an insult! What is there to be sour about? I don't know her, and have nothing against her. Why would I create accounts just to bash a stranger? Are you assuming that just because a few people have different opinions than you that they must be coming from one person with multiple accounts? I shared my own honest opinion and there isn't an ounce of malice in it. Go show this video to other Singaporeans. I bet you 9 out of 10 people would agree with me. Just because her accent is not Singaporean doesn't mean I am saying she isn't one if that's what you are misinterpreting. Accent ≠ Nationality. I am completely flabbergasted at your comment.
Keep on making excuses up cause people already know who you are and the comments here which is less than 2000 out of 5,600,000 proves that you are making this up to make yourself feel better when clearly you are just the very same person who got busted using the original account and then deleted it then used another account to use the same reply so enough with your insecurity already. In fact using two accounts replying here proves so
Jing doesn't sound Singaporean tbh. Her name is also a dead giveaway. Most probably a naturalized citizen. She has a hint of Chinese Chinese accent. One that is very distinct from 4th, 3rd or 2nd generation Singaporean Chinese accents. The Malaysian sounds more Singaporean than her lol
How do you explain her surname Quah which is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only? How do you explain many Singaporean Chinese have Chinese names in pinyin? And how do you explain many older generations of Singapore don't speak English or even Singlish? And how do you explain less than half the population of Singapore speak English as their first language?
@I_Atomm we speak very simple English which surely help us in working environment also we talk to each other using not much complicated English words. Also , we use our hands irrespective of speaking a language so the person we talk to even if the person is deaf can understand our gestures by our hand gestures. Also we pronounce English letters as it is and not like changing in the USA for example changing 'T' in a word to 'D'. We pronounce it Sharply. But people in the west mock us as they can't hear our T properly . For example, we say what to do but all they can hear is whad do do . Fact is we have T and Th consonants in our Alphabet. It is proved in a test how an Indian spells 'T' in Scotland the result is we do that sharply than the native.
Most of them pronounce "can't" the British way which tells u they're somewhat related. And well even a Malaysian myself can't even identify no 2 and differentiate that with Singaporean 😅 no 3 does sound like a streamer tho.. To me, that HK guess is really impressive!
honestly , you cannot tell malaysians and Singaporeans apart solely on their english accents since we sound 99%alike , we can only tell them apart with their slang words or vocabulary used
Technically Singapore had SOOO MANY ACCENTS, for example you meet people from different households they have their own accent as well it's Abit weird. There's no one fixed accent
I think people tend to forget that in the UK although we speak English, there is always regional variations. People who come to the UK are always shocked at the differences,and when travelling in the country find it quite hard to understand these variations.
Even as a Malaysian who has lived in Singapore, no. 3 was very hard and doesnt sound very Singaporean. To me, I knew no. 3 is definitely not Singaporean but Malaysian because it wasn't as fluent as Singaporeans but sounds close enough so confirm Malaysian. Singaporean speak fluent English with a ever so slightly Chinese accent. Aka Singaporeans are more confident when speaking English than Malaysians and don't stutter as much as Malaysians because most Malaysians don't use English as much as Singaporeans.
English with chinese accent is overrated…. English with Malay-Kelantanese accent would be good exposure about Malaysia native to international community.
No.3 is not a good representative of Singapore as most Singaporeans don't speak like that. As a Singaporean, I wouldn't have been able to guess that she's a Singaporean too.
That’s cos #3 was originally from Malaysia but moved to singapore. She and #2 have a weird twang cos of interference from Malaysian mandarin. Initially I guessed both are from mainland China.
I'm Singaporean and I guessed #3 to be Malaysian and #2 to be Singaporean. The Malaysian Chinese accent is way more distinct, English can be a little tricky depending on their background
@@InfernoXV it's normal, because a lot of singaporean/malaysian didn't use local language as well, they use english with another, and their native language in the same community
Number 3 sounds like a higher and lighter toned version of the Nigerian accent. I had a couple of Singaporean friends before and they didn't sound quite like that. Maybe she lived in Nigeria for a long time.
@@tevikumares5022 You just repeated what I said. She has a higher and lighter Nigerian accent. Even so, the Singaporean friends I had didn't sound like her, and it really didn't sound at all Nigerian. So. Maybe she lived overseas for a time.
Nope. She lived in Singapore for at least 10 years and she is no way sounding near nigerian accent at all. Oh another thing is that many older generations of Singapore don't speak english let alone singlish so again what are you on about huh?
@@tevikumares5022 And again, I'm "on about" the little lady sounding like she had a Nigerian accent. You might want to google 'Calabar accent', then lightening it and imagining that with less energy. And it made me wonder if she lived in Nigeria before.
I agree we shouldn't be saying why or why not #3 shld be representing SG. Honestly there are really many types accents in SG and yes hers is not so common and like what others have observed, perhaps english is not her most natural go-to spoken language. People have different pitches and intonations. I agree it's not a typical accent, her sentence structure and how the word 'actually' is pronounced is quite obvious to be from Singapore. I have friends who learn different languages so their accent is not typical 'singaporean' either 😂 plus if one hears students going through english oral examinations, they also sound different from their original conversational accent 😅
There’s actually a very big tell here in way they pronounced can’t. It is different for American and British english. When they’d said the word, you could tell if they were part of a British colony or not: Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and so limit your guesses.
no hate, but I never understood why american english evolved to pronounce can't like "can" and "can-t"; the british way "can" and "cun-t" is so much clearer and unambiguous
I'm a Singaporean and #3 really doesn't sound a Singaporean when she did the first statement. Although the accent did appear slightly more when she was mentioning about her favourite colour but it's still not obvious enough. I would also assume #2 was a Singaporean, given her features. I'm sorry to say this, but #3 is just faking it too much (maybe for the show?) and not showing the authentic Singaporean accent. And too much makeup on her 😅
@@InfernoXV she doesnt sound like shes from China either, but when she answered the question about her favourite colour, her Singaporean accent was pretty obvious, the shorter questions a little harder to tell. Given a longer answer, she does sound Singaporean.
And that’s cos #3 is actually from Malaysia but moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains the weird twang. Singaporean mandarin is different from Malaysian mandarin. Hence, even with the interference of a strong Chinese accent, the English from mandarin-speaking individuals from both countries will sound different.
the malaysian sounded like singaporean and the singaporean sounded like from china. the latter spoke english w a short tongue, thats not how our accent sound like.

Wow! She did so good out of five. She got three of out five. I’m really impressed with her ability to listen that is one gift that most people are lucking now a days.
How to tell the Hong Kong accent is that some words are spoken with British accent. We were taught British English in school (unless ppl attend international schools) so you could tell when the lady said "can't", she said it with British accent. And sometimes we make mistakes saying the R sound when there's no R in the word. For example when the lady say "Oliva" she kinda said "Olivar". I think the American girl did a pretty good job guessing everyone 😆
No, hongkonger raised up in Hong Kong does not has British accent because of the Cantonese accent is very strong. They have to train the tongue muscles to change the accent. ( I’m hongkonger🇭🇰)
@@TheETchild I'm HKers too and you didn't understand what I meant. There're certain words in English that ppl say and you can tell if it's UK accent or US accent. For example the words "can't"( you can google it yourself if you want to know the differences) Also there're certain words in English used in HK like 'lift', 'flat', 'rubbish bin' or 'rubber' which are words that is more common to use in the UK. On the contrary US will say 'elevator', 'room', 'trash can', 'eraser'. So even though that lady in the video had prominent Cantonese accent, I can hear the British accents ones in between.
I think you meant the word choice/type of English rather than the accents. I do think HK people have distinctive Cantonese accents but definitely not British accents 😅, I actually can hear similar accents from people originate from Cantonese speaking regions. the words used however, are British English, just like how Indians use it too because they were colonized by British before.
Indian, filipino, also thai its to easy to gues bcs they have their own accent Korean, chinese, japanese i think they have unique tone accent Malaysian, singaporean, brunei their mix british, malay, n chinese accent Indonesian, Vietnamese, i think their fluent with american english style

For the longest time I’ve always seen Americans as bad at languages because most of them have a monolingual background. It’s refreshing to see someone who’s actually aware of languages and geography.

💮THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God is saving man from the imminent destruction of this old world"
"Destinations and consequences. No Body Shall Escape the Day of Wrath.". .. (Although now are the last days, you must know that "the last days" is only a name of an age: like the Age of Law and the Age of Grace, it points to an age, and signs the totality of an age, rather than the last few or months. The work for the last days will not be done in Israel, but in the Gentiles; this is the conquest of the people from all countries and tribes outside of Israel before My throne, so that the glory in the entire universe can fill the entire Cosmos. My work will only last six thousand year, and I promise that evil's hold of all humanity will not last more than six thousand years. And so, it is time that I will not continue or delay any more: in the last days I will conquer Satan, I will recover all My glory, and I will recover all the souls on earth that belong to Me. I will keep the remaining third part the third part that loves Me and completely submits to Me, and I will make them fruitful and multiply in the land as the Israelites did under the Law, feeding them with plenty of sheep and cattle and all resources of the earth. They came from every country and denomination, and every place and town, throughout the universe. They are of different races, different languages, customs and skin colors, and they scattered in all countries and denominations throughout the world, and be in every corner of the world. Soon, they will come together to build the perfect humanity, the meeting of humanity that Satan's forces cannot reach.)
Almighty God said
NOW, I TELL you for the SAKE of YOUR SALVATION, that My WORK may PROGRESS PROPERLY, and that My FIRST WORK in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE may be PERFORMED more APPROPRIATELY and COMPLETELY, My WORDS, AUTHORITY, MAJESTY REVEAL, and JUDGMENT to the PEOPLE of ALL TOWNS and COUNTRIES. My WORK with you is the BEGINNING of My work THROUGHOUT the UNIVERSE.
Although NOW are the LAST DAYS, you must KNOW that "THE LAST DAYS" is only a name of an age: LIKE the AGE OF LAW and the AGE OF GRACE, it points to an age, and SIGNS the TOTALITY of an age, RATHER than the LAST FEW YEARS or MONTHS. ☀️
But the last days are not like the Age of Grace and the Age of Law. The WORK for the LAST DAYS will NOT be DONE in ISRAEL, but in the GENTILES; this is the CONQUEST of the PEOPLE from all COUNTRIES and TRIBES OUTSIDE of ISRAEL before My THRONE, so that the GLORY in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE can FILL the ENTIRE COSMOS. ☀️
This is to gain greater glory, so that all creation on earth can pass My glory to every nation, to all generations forever, and all creation in heaven and earth can see all the glory that I have gained on earth . The WORK PERFORMED in the LAST DAYS is the WORK of OPPRESSION. ☀️
This is NOT the GUIDANCE of ALL PEOPLE on EARTH but the CONCLUSION of NO DESTRUCTION and THOUSAND YEARS of SUFFERING LIFE of HUMANITY on EARTH. Because of this, the WORK of the LAST DAYS CANNOT be SIMILAR to SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS of WORK in ISRAEL, nor CAN it be SIMILAR to the DECADES of WORK in JUDEA that CONTINUED for SEVERAL THOUSAND YEARS until GOD'S SECOND INCARNATION. 🙏
LAST DAY PEOPLE only EXPERIENCE the RE-APPEARANCE of the REDEEMER in the FLESH, and they ACCEPT GOD'S PERSONAL WORKS and WORDS. 🙏
It will not be two thousand years before the last days of the end come; They are short, just as Jesus carried out the works during the Age of Grace in Judea. ☀️
This is BECAUSE the LAST DAYS are the CONCLUSION of the ENTIRE TIME. These are the COMPLETE and the END of GOD'S SIX-THOUSAND-YEAR PLAN of GOD'S GOVERNMENT, and these are the END of MANKIND'S LIFE'S JOURNEY of SUFFERING. 🙏
They do NOT bring HUMANITY into the NEW AGE or ALLOW HUMANITY'S LIFE to CONTINUE. 😪
That has NO SIGNIFICANCE for My GOVERNMENT PLAN or for HUMAN EXISTENCE. If HUMANITY CONTINUES like this, then they will EVENTUALLY be SWALLOWED WHOLE by the DEVIL, and the SOULS that BELONG to Me will EVENTUALLY LOSE from its HANDS. 🙏
My WORK will ONLY LAST SIX THOUSAND YEARS, and I PROMISE that EVIL'S HOLD of ALL HUMANITY will NOT LAST MORE than SIX THOUSAND YEARS. 🙏
And SO, it is TIME that I WILL NOT CONTINUE or DELAY ANY MORE: in the LAST DAYS I WILL CONQUER SATAN, I WILL RECOVER ALL My GLORY, and I WILL RECOVER ALL the SOULS on EARTH that BELONG to ME.
So that these SUFFERING SOULS can LOSE in the SEA of SUFFERING, and thus END My ENTIRE WORK on EARTH. 🙏
BEGINNING this DAY, I will NEVER INCARNATE on EARTH, and My DOMINANT SPIRIT will NEVER AGAIN. I will ONLY do ONE thing on EARTH: I will CHANGE HUMANITY, HOLY HUMANITY, and My FAITHFUL CITY on EARTH. 🙏
BUT you should KNOW that I will NOT ELIMINATE the whole WORLD, I will NOT ELIMINATE the ENTIRE HUMANITY. I will KEEP the REMAINING THIRD PART the THIRD PART that LOVES Me and COMPLETELY SUBMITS to Me, and I will MAKE them FRUITFUL and MULTIPLY in the LAND as the ISRAELITES did under the LAW, FEEDING them with PLENTY of SHEEP and CATTLE and all RESOURCES of the EARTH. 🙏
This PERSON shall REMAIN with Me FOREVER, BUT it is NOT the WICKED FILTHY PERSON of TODAY, BUT the PERSON GATHERED from My WORD PROCEEDS. 🙏
That PEOPLE will NOT be DAMAGED, INTERRUPTED, or ENCOVERED by SATAN, and they are the ONLY PEOPLE that will REMAIN on EARTH AFTER I have VICTORY AGAINST SATAN. This is the PERSON I have NOW OVERCOME and GOT My PROMISE. 🙏
And THEREFORE, the HUMANITY that is SUBJECTED in the LAST DAYS is also the HUMANITY that WILL be SAVED and will ACHIEVE My ETERNAL BLESSINGS. This WILL be the ONLY PROOF of My VICTORY AGAINST SATAN, and the ONLY SPOILS of My FIGHT against SATAN. The SPOILS of WAR I have SAVED from SATAN'S COVERAGE, and are the ONLY COMPLETEMENT and FRUIT of My SIX-THOUSAND-YEAR REIGN PLAN. 🙏
They CAME from EVERY COUNTRY and DENOMINATION, and EVERY PLACE and TOWN, THROUGHOUT the UNIVERSE. They are of DIFFERENT RACES, DIFFERENT LANGUAGES, CUSTOMS and SKIN COLORS, and they are SCATTERED in ALL COUNTRIES and DENOMINATIONS throughout the WORLD, and be in EVERY CORNER of the WORLD. Soon, they will COME TOGETHER to BUILD the PERFECT humanity, the meeting of HUMANITY that SATAN'S FORCES cannot REACH. ☀️🙏
Those of HUMANITY who are NOT SAVED and SUBJECTED by Me WILL SINK SILENTLY into the DEPTH of the SEA, and be BURNED by My BURNING fire FOREVER. 😪
I WILL DESTROY this OLD, and WHOLE DEFILEMENT of MANKIND, as I DESTROYED the FIRST-BORN SONS and CATTLE in Egypt, LEAVING ONLY the ISRAELITES, who EAT mutton, DRINK mutton's BLOOD, and STAMP BLOOD of the LAMB on their doorposts. AREN'T the PEOPLE I have SUBJECTED and become FAMILY the same PEOPLE who ATE My FLESH as a LAMB and WHOM I REDEEMED and WORSHIPED Me? 😪🙏
AREN'T they the TYPES of PEOPLE My GLORY ALWAYS ACCOMPANIES? DID they NOT WITHOUT My BODY, the LAMB, SILENTLY SINK into the DEPTH of the SEA? 😪
NOW they are OPPOSED to Me, and NOW My WORDS are JUST as JEHOVAH SAID to the MEN and GRANDSONS of ISRAEL. But the hardness in the depths of your hearts is storing up My wrath, bringing more judgment on your sins, and more wrath on your unrighteousness. 😪
Who will save My day of wrath, if this is how you treat Me now? WHOSE UNRIGHTEOUSNESS can ESCAPE My EYES of PUNISHMENT? Whose SINS CAN ESCAPE My HANDS. The ALMIGHTY? 🙏
Whose RESISTANCE WILL ESCAPE My JUDGMENT, ALMIGHTY? 🙏
I, JEHOVAH, am SPEAKING to YOU, GENTLE FAMILY TRIBES, and the WORDS that I SPOKE to YOU are MORE than ALL that were SPOKE in the AGE OF LAW and the AGE OF GRACE, but you are more STIFF than ALL those PEOPLE in Egypt. DID YOU NOT STORE My WRATH WHILE I was PREPARING My REST? HOW can you ESCAPE UNHARMED from My DAY, the ALMIGHTY?🙏

@@izzrafael2591u r Racist👹
I can see why she didn't exactly get Singapore and Malaysia right, because both countries used to be one country called Malaya under the British at one time, the cultures and language spoken is very very close. Even the way English is spoken and the accents would have been challenging to tell apart. The 2 countries are very close in proximity, the land crossing between Singapore and Malaysia is one of the busiest in the world, and Singaporeans and Malaysians often have family in either country. So Singapore and Malaysia would have been a huge challenge, and even more so when you consider that both countries have multi-cultural Chinese, Malay and Indian populations as citizens, among other ethnicities. So yes, BIG challenge there! The other 3 English accents from the Philippines, Hongkong and India are definitely more distinct. I'm from Singapore, and sometimes it's hard for me to tell Singapore and Malaysia accents apart when both are speaking English. It's like how it's sometimes hard to tell a Canadian from an American, 'cos the accents sound quite close.
As Malaysia is predominately of 68% Malay-origin, they should invite a Malay-Muslim ethnicity girl to present "Malaysia", as a Malay girl's spoken English will be quite distinct because of the Malay-Austronesian Langue influences & accent. Although the Chinese-Malaysian accent is also quite distinct, but this girl who has grown up in Singapore will not be a very good sample representation for Chinese-Malaysian Accent English, for that matter. For the record as of 2022, Singapore is ranked number 1 in Asia for English proficiency, followed by Malaysia. And as for the last girl from Hong Kong, i was very impressed by her spoken English because she doesn't has the "Hongkie-Cantonese-accent" -- good for her.

The thing with Singaporean is they have two different accents when speaking casually and formally. I can tell the singaporean girl try so hard to speak formally, if she try speak like she speak to her friend im sure everybody can guess it.

The same goes for the Filipinos, but it doesn't matter if they try. You can clearly hear their accent.
A good tricky one would be a korean person who learned fluent english the philippines. A lot of the times, you cant distinguish them from a filipino. That could make it a fun twist for these kinds of video.
Fish time of someone from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 on World Friends , cool , but i think the best part of the video is the new US member , what a smart and lovely lady , she guessed right way more than she could thought 😊
I’m from Hong Kong 🇭🇰:)
Chinese Hongkong
I got Hong Kong!

Exactly
As a Malaysian who went through public school and university in England, and practised as a London Barrister, I think my English language proficiency is up to UK standard. Unfortunately, when I was applying to Georgia Tech for a Masters degree, they said that their regulations stated that only graduates from American universities or citizens from a small set number of countries like UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand were deemed to be able to satisfy their English language entry requirements. When I politely and sarcastically wrote back to them questioning their logic, they insisted that because I was not a British citizen, I still had to do the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) to prove my English language proficiency!
Because it's not your first language no matter how good you are in English, it's their requirement and you just have to abide.
Only graduates from American universities and not British universities satisfy their English language requirements? And I thought that the English language originated from England and not the USA?
I'm a Malaysian, Cantonese tribe.
Funny thing is, English is actually my first language. All other languages/dialects that I speak fluently, which includes Malay, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, they are all translated from English straight from my mind, as English is my thought-process.
I had to take TOEFL/IELTS after my college days, for my application into UK/US universities. I ended up in US for my under/post grad.
As I had my education in the UK, I actually put English as my first language in an application to another American university. But as my citizenship was still Malaysian, they refused to accept that English was my first language and said that as a Malaysian, my first language was Malay! Go figure :)
@@yskwong
we are are unqiue in our own accents!
1:16 I think what many foreigners don’t understand that English speakers from these countries are not on the same situation like Koreans or Japanese speaking English, because unlike in Korea or Japan, English is actually an official language where they come from. In their counties, the language is used as the medium of instruction at school.
In countries like India, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and the Philippines, English is so important that for some segments of the population it becomes their first language. It’s the language they use at home with their family. So they ARE native speakers, just like any other native speakers from the US or from the UK.
I personally know people from Malaysia and Singapore who speak English as their first language, but they still retain their uniqueness, which is why they call their brand of English: Manglish and Singlish. They have their own vocabulary and sentence structures that are unique to them.
That being said, I wouldn’t be able to differentiate between Singlish and Manglish speakers either. But India and Philippines here is a dead giveaway. 😁
It’s really different from, say, my own country Indonesia, where English is considered a foreign language just like French, Russian, Dutch, Vietnamese or Swahili.
Malaysia and Singapore speak English, Malay, Tamil, and English. #2 is from Malaysia and #3 is from Singapore, though their accents are different. Like Malay and mandarin influences.
Yeah all of these countries where at one point part of the British Empire and The Phillipines were controlled by the Americans after the Spanish were kicked out.
I imagine Malaysians closer to the border sound more similar to singaporeans anyway.
Hard to distinguish between Malaysians, Singaporeans and Cantonese because they all have Chinese accent when speaking in English. It would be a bit challenging to guess India if a Pakistani was added to the mix.
Filipino accent is way too unique among other English speaking Asian countries I can't think of a certain group of people from Asia that would sound the same as them.
@@darkmoney7762 Malaysians and Singaporeans don't have a Chinese accent and the Malaysian and Singaporean accents are actually very different to Chinese accents.
@@user-jt3dw6vv4xGuess you're right. Perhaps I'm just more exposed to Malay-Chinese and Singaporean Chinese that it has become like my general perception of Malay and Singaporean English accents. And everytime I hear Chinese speak English, they pronounce sentences as if they don't have spaces which is what I also hear from Malay-Chinese and Singaporean Chinese.
If that Indian was from NorthEastern states, it would have been much more difficult to guess her out, by speak or by looks. Not everyone speaks Hindi in India.

Those who are really good English speakers in the Philippines use neutral accent. That is also usually taught in schools
She has Filipino neutral accent actually. But there is something in a Filipino accent that is easily recognizable.
@@DaveChuaaOur plosives
@@DaveChuaawell we Filipinos pronounce "A" like "UH" (ex. BAT is pronounced as BUT) and I think that's the most recognizable accent for a Filipino.
And aside from that, Filipino do also pronounce X like GZ for example EXIT is pronounced as EGGZIT😂
No one has a neutral accent. The Filipina here was quite good but not representative of English spoken by Filipinos.
As someone born in Singapore who has Hong Kong ancestry and friends, no.2 sounds more Singaporean than no. 3. No.3 sounds like she was not born in Singapore, but probably from China. No.5 doesn't sound like a Hong Kong accent. I thought she was from China too.
Nope. No 3 was educated in jurong primary school and grows up in Singapore and she may have spoken singlish but she decided to change her English to make everyone understand her. No 5 on the other hand sounds very Hong Kong.
@tevikumares5022
Stop spreading your lies everywhere. #3 is from Malaysia and she moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains her weird twang. No Singaporeans speak like that. Singaporean mandarin sounds different from Malaysian mandarin so even mandarin-speaking Singaporeans don’t sound like that when speaking English.
Spot on. Agree 100%
First time to leave a comment on TH-cam.
Glad to see someone from Hong Kong but not only from China anymore. As many of you may not know, Cantonese actually has much longer history than Mandarin. It keeps more ancient Chinese characteristics than Mandarin. So it’s much more interesting to compare it with other Asian languages.
I’ve been wanting to hear Cantonese on the channel so now I’m excited!
Cantonese sounds like Vietnamese so the girl's first guess was pretty close
Cantonese does not have a longer history that is disingenious. What you mean to say is Cantonese retains more of the original sounds of Middle Chinese.
Mandarin is also an evolution of Middle Chinese, but is the dominant one spoken in the North China Plain. Yue aka Cantonese only split off and diverged from the North China Plain during the Song to Yuan Dynasties from Middle Chinese.
In a way, it would be more accurate to say Mandarin is older than Cantonese if we were to carry on with this line of thinking, as Cantonese split from Middle Chinese in 1000 ad approx.
Tl;dr: You cannot say Cantonese is older than Mandarin as they both share the same roots. It is however true Cantonese is like a FOSSIL for what Chinese used to sound like.
@@sw36jl Cantonese does have longer history and also keeps more characteristics of ancient Chinese.
The earliest record would be the time that Qin Shi Huang conquered the Baiyue and brought the ‘Yayan’ (so-called authentic Chinese at that time) there.
Another significant period would the time that of the Upheaval of the Five Barbarians（304-316). Many people, especially the rich people and the scholars ran from the north to the south. These people were relatively insistent about their traditions, cultures and language. They bulit walls to surround their homes and intentionally isolated themselves from the others. To a certain extent, these made ancient Chinese was well kept in the Southern China than the Northern China. It eventually mixed with some local dialects and developed into Cantonese.
On the other hand, the language in the Northern China (or the Central plains) was merged with many other languages of the Barbarians because of wars, immigrations, etc. And then eventually become Mandarin that people speak nowadays.
To be fair, none of them can be called the Authentic Chinese’ but they do develop from the same origin. However, Mandarin is mixed with other languages dialects more than the Cantonese does. So it would be more interesting to study Cantonese if you are intrigued how the ancient Chinese sounds.
I speak Cantonese, i'm from Hong Kong. I hate mainland mandarin. But just stop these Cantonese propaganda. We love our language. But language is language. Average hong konger don't know much about the language, stop pretend like you know Cantonese is better.
What if someone proves that Hakka is objectively better than Cantonese? Make similar to the "real Chinese" "more traditional" "kept the most traditional phonetic features so it's the best for 唐詩"
Do we all just switch to Hakka and dump Cantonese?
We love Cantonese because we grow up speaking it. And Hong Kong had its best time with its cultural export. That's it.
Number 3 doesn’t have a common Singaporean accent. She sounds foreign; most Chinese Singaporeans don’t sound like that. Even if she’s not Chinese she still doesn’t sound Singaporean
That’s because she is not one of the “most Singaporean chinese”.
From China probably
@@Catzfamily269 nope. She wasn’t even born there. She attended primary school in Singapore and grows up in Singapore
The plain and simple truth is this tevikumares account and jennylawrence are both her and she is a foreigner going around masquerading as a Singaporean then trying to bash anyone who calls her out.
Really? You are seriously in denial actually. jennylawrence even asked me the language I typed and you dare to accuse me?
In Malaysia and Singapore we also have "bahasa rojak(mix languages)" basically combined languages of Malay,English,Mandarin,Tamil or others native languages.
I live in Singapore for 25 yrs...and I cannot guess the number 3. Shes probably from Mainland China and migrated to Singapore. The common accent for Singaporean is actually number 2.
Explain why she was educated in jurong primary school and grew up in Singapore? And explain why her surname Quah is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only?
yes...malaysian and singapore have the similar accent
@tevikumares5022
So it turns out that she’s actually a Malaysian who lived in Singaporean since a young age. But the accent is unmistakable. Chinese is her first language.
@@ABC-ed8cg exactly my point. Just because someone who speaks Chinese as her first language it doesn’t mean she is from China. Close to 29 percent of Singaporeans speak Chinese as their first language so who are you to judge anyway?
@@ABC-ed8cg and she is now a Singaporean citizen not Malaysian citizen anymore
Wow, I'm from Malaysia and I could only be sure about the Indian and Phillipines accent.
The SG & MY are so similar and I thought no.5 is from Korea 😅
INDIA, THE PHILIPINES, MALAYSIA, SINGAPORE & HONG KONG.
I actually thought no.2 sounds more singaporean than no.3. But No 2 is Malaysian and I believe No 3 may have come from Singapore and prob have lived in S'pore for quite some time but not Singaporean. She sounds hesitant when she speaks, unlike most educated Singaporeans who speak English like they firing a machine gun. And then she said her name is Jing, so most likely a Chinese immigrant that have been in Singapore for quite some time. Singaporean Chinese don't usually have a name that goes by Jing which sounds more like a mainland chinese name but she looks more Japanese. Also a Singaporean don't usually speak in such soft manner.
With all due respects, I have seen many Singaporean Chinese using pinyin given names and not every Singaporean Chinese is going to speak the same accent anyway
Actually, a lot of young Chinese singaporean given names are pin-yin based. For instance, their surname can be "Ng" which is a Cantonese sounding surname, but their given name is in Pin-yin, which is based on Mandarin.
To me she sounds like she’s the 2nd or 3rd generation of her family who migrated from China. Probably studied in a Chinese school and doesn’t interact much with other races when growing up.
I literally call my Singaporean born friend Jing LOL
And by the way please explain why she was educated in jurong primary school and grew up in Singapore and her surname Quah is only found in Malaysia and Singapore?
For me, #2 sounds like singaporean and malaysian chinese. The way they speak quite similar. Malay english sounds a bit different. But i never guess #3 is from singapore. I thought no. 3 is from korea or japan. lol 😂
The singaporean doesn't sound singaporean and i'm from singapore 😅 She was likely borned in China and then migrated here thus the hint of china accent that everyone is talking about in the comment section.
I think Philippines is very easy to guess. It's neutral, but distinct.
The thing that sets it apart from all the other accents in this group is that it's distinctly AMERICAN. Philippine English is based on (General) American English, as a former American colony, and it is distinctly rhotic (the R is pronounced before consonants). It is most similar to the English accents in the Pacific Islands.
In contrast to India, Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong, which are based on (RP) British English as former UK colonies. They are non-rhotic (the R disappears before consonants, so words like "farm" would be pronounced like "fahm").
No it is not neutral. It is quite distinctive
The way she said "stare'' the consonants and vowels
@@jisookruzat What are you even talking about. That's exactly how "stare" is pronounced with a General American accent, which again, is what Philippine English is based on.
In BRITISH English, it becomes something like "steh".
@@AngryKittens you wouldn't get it
No.3 sounds like those chinese livestreamers that tries to be cute💀
Explain why her surname Quah is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only?
Most of these societies have very large differences in accents based on education, socioeconomic status, and exposure to people abroad.
True that
She is actually very much on point of her observation. But for Filipinos born and raised in the US, they kind of adopt the intonation in the US, so it will become a bit tricky in that aspect.
well if they are born in the US, that would make them US citizens
@@kbar6644 And speaking American accent if they're raised there
Not gonna lie, the US lady did an excellent job! She must be genius that her guess close to 70% accurate?
She guessed the num. 2 was from MY on the first, but it's probbly cause her (num. 2) accent was too influenced by the singlish accent which still strong though, then the US lady changed her bet.
For num. 3 it's sounds like her accent was slightly differ from the common SG accent, maybe (?) Since i have several friends from SG, and their accent sounds different than this one. Then means no chance.
Honestly, its quite hard to tell apart the Malaysian and Singaporean english accent, they're really quite similar. The shortened words and the flow are very close. When I travel, its easy to recognise a Malaysian or Singaporean when they start speaking, but gets more difficult pin pointing which of these two countries they are from. Infact, just listen to the question asking about their favourite colour, you can clearly tell no.3 was speaking either Singlish or Manglish, no other two countries speak this way.
Indeed
@@4b1dd3n quite different, eg the "for us" singaporean pronounced as for ahs, while malaysian pronounced as for erhs.
you can't really tell a Singaporean from the accent of our spoken English. We have so many different races here that all of us actually have different accents. You can however tell a Singaporean from our sentence syntax. Give us free reign to speak and you can pick us out in a crowd based on how our sentences are structred.
You should give an example of free-reign Singlish, Kenneth😄
@@psoon04286when #3 was describing what colour she liked, the sentence just give way. That's such a common way of informal speaking in Singapore

so stupid bitter haha LMAO
@@izzrafael2591what n why bitter, merely a suggestion 😅oh come on
Actually the Singapore sounds more like a prc turned Singaporean accent..
@@Gpower188 n her name was jingx2? Some giveaway there
As a Singaporean, I would say number 3's accent is not good representation of Singaporeans. She sounds like she grew up in a Chinese-speaking family or she was not born or raised here.
Explain why she was educated in jurong primary school and grew up in Singapore?
And that’s cos #3 is actually from Malaysia but moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains the weird twang.
Singaporean mandarin is different from Malaysian mandarin. Hence, even with the interference of a strong Chinese accent, the English from mandarin-speaking individuals from both countries will sound different.
"India and Philippine's accent is very distinct".. dude, wherever you go, there will always be an Indian or a Filipino in the workforce, tech, or medical. How can you not get used to it.
Shoutout to my Indian brothers and sisters out there! Lol
Are you an American? I heard shootout
Work on getting an Italian accent.
If you mean by distinct is recognizable nobody can argue with that if comparing the two nationality by thier accent. Filipino has more docile tongue compare to Indians who are more rigid.
@@giwibrion3356That's true!
All facts I'm here in UK my workmates were from this two countries 🤣
That is NOT a Singaporean accent. I was HORRIFIED when she revealed she was from Singapore. Please do not believe that's what a Singaporean sounds like.
I couldn't agree more
I thought she was Chinese
def from china
That’s because you think you guys know better when clearly not every Singaporean is going to speak the same accent anyway.
if singaporean speak eloquently it will sound like Jing not the normal Singlish
singlish accent quite distinctive, super easy to pick up, more like the 2nd person
I'm impressed she did that well.
I watched with my eyes closed and India/Phillipines were obvious from the first second. I guessed Malaysia/Indonesia/Singapore for 2 and Chinese for 3. I thought 5 was Thai at first, but as soon as she said Hongkong I knew she was right.
Brooke wearing glasses makes her look really smart! 🤓
Because of the good representation to the Ph, I'm subscribing!!
If you want to see this in a historical background, Singaporean Malaysian Indian and Hong Kongers use British spelling due to them being former British Colonies while the Filipino uses American English spelling since the Philippines was a commonwealth of the United States 1898-1946. For the Malaysian in the video she's a Singapore Airlines crew
I swear... It gets even more confusing being Singaporean now that Gen Zs are adults.
Millennial and older Singaporeans would sound very similar to the Malaysian lady. Stronger Chinese/Malay/Tamil accent.
The Gen Z Singaporeans are so mixed(race)+ New citizens+ consume so much tiktok till they somehow adopted all sorts of accent which sounds kinda odd at times.
I have to admit, amongst the younger gen, I don't even know who's Singaporean and who's foreigner anymore in my own country.
Just like there is no indian language, there is no Indian accent. Every Indian will speak english differently based on their mother tongue.
There are way more similarities than differences. To an outsider, they all sound the same. So you do have an Indian accent. Nothing wrong with it. Get over it.
@KR-ff4tu to an outsider Australian and British English will sound the same. Doesn't make it true.
@@DipJyotiDeka If they are unfamiliar with English, sure. Highly unlikely that Australian and British English will sound similar to most English speakers.
@@KR-ff4tu I don't know where you got those stats but India has the 2nd largest number of English speakers after US.
So pardon if someone could not find out the difference between the Australian and British accents, much like you could not find out the regional differences in "Indian English".
@@DipJyotiDeka What stats? I haven’t mentioned any. What’s the number of English speakers in Indian got to do with their ability to distinguish between accents? There’s no true or false, it’s perception, not physics. Didn’t say I couldn’t distinguish between accents within India. I’m part Indian and have spent time there, so I can. My point was Indians feel inferior and get defensive when someone points out their accent, just like you did. The French and the Italians don’t, why do you?
Lady 2 is a better representative of a malaysian (or singaporean since she spent so much time in singapore) who is skilled in 'standard english' that is used when speaking to non-malaysian/singaporeans. 'standard english' lacks many elements in singlish and manglish.
Lady 3 is less skilled in switching to 'standard english' and you can say that she is more representative of what a typical singaporean local sound like when they are speaking english
No 3 doesn’t sound Singaporean at all. Heck, the Malaysian sounds more Singaporean than her. How sure are we the producers got it right?
My own guess based on their accent .
1.) India (Definitely her looks and accent)
2.) Singapore (Based on her personality, I have no idea Singapore is but I know most Singaporean is like half chines and Korean looks)
3.) Japan (Based on her aura and action the way she speak)
4.) Philippines (My Hometown so I know)
5.) Indonesia ( I'm based on her personality )

Don't mind me, I'm just gonna keep repeating Brooke doing her intro here. I don't know why. Suddenly, I felt a soothing vibe running through my veins.
Jing from Singapore is definitely not 100% native Singaporean, she sounds more like a China-born native who had picked up English in her schooling years while growing up in a predominantly-Chinese-speaking household.
Malaysian Hazeline definitely has the more-recognisable Singlish twang, that comes from hanging around with Singlish-speaking locals all the time.
Source: native Singaporean here
Explain her surname Quah which is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only? And not to mention there are older generations of Singapore can't speak English let alone Singlish
I love how you can distinguish those accents and not being racist. Im from the Philippines and live in the US but sometimes I get push back because of my accent. But i know for a fact that we can construct an English language with perfect grammar unlike those who are born and raised in the US.
Wtf is racist about stating what their expression about foreign English language. Gtfo with your woke nonsense. Everything is snowflakes and sensitive with you all!
"we can construct an English language with perfect grammar" Funny how you claim this but prove yourself wrong at the same time.
Hahahaha! Your paragraph is even flawed.
@@thebukojoeplays I live in the US half of my life and most Americans think they speak English better compared to other nationalities. The reason I think is because they were born in U.S. and they have this belief that no matter what they say it is a perfect English. I myself is not good in grammar when it comes to verbal English but I still can compare someone speaking grammatically good English. Here it comes.......most Americans suck in English. Peace.
I was also very surprised a Singaporean girl would would talk like that too, but let's not argue over her representing Singapore. This channel is supposed to bring people together not divide them, so welcome newcomer Jing and all others. I find the American girl Brooke very amazing when figuring out #5. First guess was maybe Vietnam but at the end switched to Hong Kong, a small city yet very distinct. She probably has met some HKers before and come across our accent. The HK girl's way of pronouncing 'cute' should give her away as it is totally the British one. Brooke caught that detail and nailed it. You're so awesome Brooke.
Number 3 didn't have what I would call a typical Singaporean accent. Its not to the fault of the guesser, I don't think I would have gotten it myself and I'm Singaporean.
Yea coz she's actually a new citizen originally from Malaysia, doesnt speak English as her first language.. her accent already formed before she migrated to Singapore, that's why she doesn't sound Singaporean..

Jing doesn't sound Singaporean tbh. Her name is also a dead giveaway. Most probably a naturalized citizen. She has a hint of Chinese Chinese accent. One that is very distinct from 4th, 3rd or 2nd generation Singaporean Chinese accents. The Malaysian sounds more Singaporean than her lol

@I_Atomm we speak very simple English which surely help us in working environment also we talk to each other using not much complicated English words. Also , we use our hands irrespective of speaking a language so the person we talk to even if the person is deaf can understand our gestures by our hand gestures.

But people in the west mock us as they can't hear our T properly . For example, we say what to do but all they can hear is whad do do . Fact is we have T and Th consonants in our Alphabet. It is proved in a test how an Indian spells 'T' in Scotland the result is we do that sharply than the native.
Most of them pronounce "can't" the British way which tells u they're somewhat related. And well even a Malaysian myself can't even identify no 2 and differentiate that with Singaporean 😅 no 3 does sound like a streamer tho..

Yes, you are right about the way people pronounce 'can't' in English, In Australia and UK it is pronounce as can't but in US it pronounce as can t.

@@tevikumares5022 You just repeated what I said. She has a higher and lighter Nigerian accent.
Even so, the Singaporean friends I had didn't sound like her, and it really didn't sound at all Nigerian. So. Maybe she lived overseas for a time.
Nope. She lived in Singapore for at least 10 years and she is no way sounding near nigerian accent at all. Oh another thing is that many older generations of Singapore don't speak english let alone singlish so again what are you on about huh?
@@tevikumares5022 And again, I'm "on about" the little lady sounding like she had a Nigerian accent. You might want to google 'Calabar accent', then lightening it and imagining that with less energy. And it made me wonder if she lived in Nigeria before.
Nope and she never had so your point is still invalid anyway
I agree we shouldn't be saying why or why not #3 shld be representing SG. Honestly there are really many types accents in SG and yes hers is not so common and like what others have observed, perhaps english is not her most natural go-to spoken language. People have different pitches and intonations. I agree it's not a typical accent, her sentence structure and how the word 'actually' is pronounced is quite obvious to be from Singapore. I have friends who learn different languages so their accent is not typical 'singaporean' either 😂 plus if one hears students going through english oral examinations, they also sound different from their original conversational accent 😅
There’s actually a very big tell here in way they pronounced can’t. It is different for American and British english. When they’d said the word, you could tell if they were part of a British colony or not: Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and so limit your guesses.
no hate, but I never understood why american english evolved to pronounce can't like "can" and "can-t"; the british way "can" and "cun-t" is so much clearer and unambiguous
I'm a Singaporean and #3 really doesn't sound a Singaporean when she did the first statement. Although the accent did appear slightly more when she was mentioning about her favourite colour but it's still not obvious enough. I would also assume #2 was a Singaporean, given her features. I'm sorry to say this, but #3 is just faking it too much (maybe for the show?) and not showing the authentic Singaporean accent. And too much makeup on her 😅
3 was likely born and spent her formative years in china. she doesn’t speak like someone who was born and raised in sg.
She sounded Japanese to me 😁
@@InfernoXV she doesnt sound like shes from China either, but when she answered the question about her favourite colour, her Singaporean accent was pretty obvious, the shorter questions a little harder to tell. Given a longer answer, she does sound Singaporean.
@@4b1dd3nthat person keeps on saying she is from China but that person is just simply a racist
And that’s cos #3 is actually from Malaysia but moved to Singapore. She definitely speaks Malaysian mandarin at home which explains the weird twang.
Singaporean mandarin is different from Malaysian mandarin. Hence, even with the interference of a strong Chinese accent, the English from mandarin-speaking individuals from both countries will sound different.
the malaysian sounded like singaporean and the singaporean sounded like from china. the latter spoke english w a short tongue, thats not how our accent sound like.
Explain her surname Quah which is only found in Malaysia and Singapore only?
As a Singaporean, I could not have guessed number 3 as Singapore either HAHAHA.

Wow she's very intelligent
The third one was so difficult, I met quite a lot of Singaporeans, but never heard someone sounds like her.

Singaporean Mandarin is different from Malaysian Mandarin? Or you just happen to be bad in mandarin? At least she grew up in Singapore most of her life
Even as an actual Singaporean I’m having a hard time between 2 and 3
She was really good at this guessing game. Definitely breaking the American stereotype 👍
She seems like a linguist
Wow! She did so good out of five. She got three of out five. I’m really impressed with her ability to listen that is one gift that most people are lucking now a days.
Brooke did well. Bravo 👏🏽
India, Philippines and Hongkong are America's tech support countries thats why Americans can tell 😉✌️😂
She's very respectful and observant. I'm impressed!
The easiest ones to guess are Indian and Filipino accents. Their accents are quite strong.
How to tell the Hong Kong accent is that some words are spoken with British accent. We were taught British English in school (unless ppl attend international schools) so you could tell when the lady said "can't", she said it with British accent. And sometimes we make mistakes saying the R sound when there's no R in the word. For example when the lady say "Oliva" she kinda said "Olivar".
I think the American girl did a pretty good job guessing everyone 😆
No, hongkonger raised up in Hong Kong does not has British accent because of the Cantonese accent is very strong. They have to train the tongue muscles to change the accent.
( I’m hongkonger🇭🇰)
@@TheETchild I'm HKers too and you didn't understand what I meant. There're certain words in English that ppl say and you can tell if it's UK accent or US accent. For example the words "can't"( you can google it yourself if you want to know the differences)
Also there're certain words in English used in HK like 'lift', 'flat', 'rubbish bin' or 'rubber' which are words that is more common to use in the UK. On the contrary US will say 'elevator', 'room', 'trash can', 'eraser'.
So even though that lady in the video had prominent Cantonese accent, I can hear the British accents ones in between.
@@pandayy8865 back, black, beck, bad , bed, bat, bet 👈🏻 HKers tongue speak these words are in a same pronunciation.
@@TheETchild ok
I think you meant the word choice/type of English rather than the accents. I do think HK people have distinctive Cantonese accents but definitely not British accents 😅, I actually can hear similar accents from people originate from Cantonese speaking regions. the words used however, are British English, just like how Indians use it too because they were colonized by British before.
Indian, filipino, also thai its to easy to gues bcs they have their own accent
Korean, chinese, japanese i think they have unique tone accent
Malaysian, singaporean, brunei their mix british, malay, n chinese accent
Indonesian, Vietnamese, i think their fluent with american english style
I was expecting the India girl name to be Anika and filipino lady's as Grace. That was a surprise there.
That was definitely not a typical Singapore accent.
At least she can speak English unlike many older generations of Singapore can’t speak English let alone singlish
love how she explains her choices with adjectives that Ive never used on how to explain someone's speaking style 🎉
Finally someone came who has our proper Indian accent and she is beautiful❤
