So, if a Han Chinese can't find a wife (or a husband), then is s/he Han . . . solo?
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)
+Nick Hentschel you my friend, you deserve an award!
DarkWolfyPrincess 10,000 yuan . . . all in advance.
+Nick Hentschel can confirm, am Han solo, and cousine is han solo, and teacher is han solo, and mayor is han solo...
+Data Integration Thought Entity Humanoid Interface
Han's a busy man, isn't he?
Nick Hentschel hehe yeah, we're quite busy ^^
looked at my arm. had han mark. im black. my ancestors have some explaining to do.
+WoWplayer527 Likewise, I'm of Italian and English heritage and am white.
+WoWplayer527 I have it as well O.O.
i´ve got the same ... guess they are just kidding :)
Chinese like to claim that everyone is han...lol
Qaboos Mintaka
No. Everyone like to claim they are Chinese. You can guess why .... lololo
I'm from the Miao, also known as the Hmong! It's great to be who I am, I am proud to be Hmong and proud to have some history with China!
Congrats to having a language that's harder to learn than Cantonese (that's a compliment really, 8 tones! yikes).
If we lump Hmong from southeast Asia with those in China they actually outnumber the uyghurs.
*Mongic
@StickyRice You can said that, but who care ? Hmong is only tiny sub group of the Miao. The Miao is like the Han- who have many dialect. Just like the Lao and the Thai who every one will be understandable.
@@theminuteman7611 lol
I'm a Hui but we don't speak Arabic but do use Arabic letters sometime
Tammy May yea You guys use it only when you make salah ?
We also use arabic in our prayers only
hui people never chinese
@@tanktalking5300WTF? I have so many hui friends and they are all Chinese.
tank talking don’t tell u who we are when u aren’t one. 😠
I'm white but I checked my arm lol.
+Glisero
Same but I only have a dot scar from a fucking bee sting lol
+Glisero I'm also white, but I somehow have the lines on one arm... I guess I better start learning Mandarin ASAP :)
+Glisero I checked my arm nothing. And then I checked my Chinese husband's arm and I was so amazed to see it there lol
+Glisero Hahahaha
+Филип Брчић With a serious face, I say it's time to get one of those DNA kits, who knows you might trace your lineage back to that one ancestor that came by the ancient silk route. :)
Just to clarify, the Han mark is a tale. The Han mark is actually just a stretch mark on your arm from growing
i dont have this mark so youre wrong
@@matthewmatthew981 wasp?
@@Mirsab never mind.
Exactly, I'm not Han Chinese so I was very confused and scared that whether My ancestors were Chinese ?!!
I'm not a Han or a Chinese, but I have the marks 😆
Fun fact: there are actually more ethnic Mongols living in China than in Mongolia, many of which are concentrated in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. In addition, Mongols in China still use the traditional Mongolian writing script, whereas Mongolia had abandoned it in favor of the Cyrillic writing script.
its true, we love seeing inner Mongolians singing in their mother tongue in national tv, inner Mongolian alternative rock is the best
The Mongols who are living in China are the real descendants of Genghis Khan
@@danyawang3632 Are you talking about jindandao incident or cultural revolution ?
Russia outlawed mongolian script at some point.. Much like China is trying to do these days.
@@danyawang3632 lmao you are one of those people arent ya
Thank You for shouting out my Miao/Hmong People! 🙌 Majority in the US are in California (Fresno) and Minnesota (St Paul/Minneapolis)
2:30
What you're describing here isn't polytheism, but animism. Granted, there's a certain overlap, but the definition you give is most descriptive of animism.
[/pedant]
Thanks captain helper
I know this comment is really old but I was going to say the same thing
This was really interesting! I loved that you were able to have fun while presenting the material, but also remained respectful throughout. Bravo!
Aye, thanks for including our people. 我們是苗族. It's only in China that we call ourselves Miao but every where else in the world, we call ourselves Hmong. But then again, there are four group that makes up the Miao. Xong, Hmub, A-Hmao, and Hmong. Some of the grouping also doesn't consider themselves to be categorized as Miao because of cultural difference and language. But as of now, only the Hmong people are the known group that have migrated out of China. They migrated to South East Asia then from there to other countries such as the United States, Europe, and Australia as refugee during the Vietnam War. Thank you for sharing :3
1) The chopstick song can be played on the piano :D
2) These guys are awesome. Great hearing Mandarin (?) with an American accent.
3) Seriously, thank you for a great video!
I was born and raised in guangxi, zhuang autonomous area. It is really hard to distinguish zhuang or yao or any other minorities in guangxi nowday, usually we can know from their accents. But most of us can speak 3 dialects and you can choose to be a Han or minority if one of you parent is minority ( we definitely choose to be minority because of minority privilege policies, lol)
+Kelly Su I LOVE HOKKIEN
Kelly Su it’s better to be referred as ‘affirmative action’
Hahahahahahahahahahahahsshahahha
i have Han mark on my belly
+jo XDDDDDD
+jo I do 2 and on my arm
Have one on my arm
Must be pregnant or just fat with stretch marks lol
its because you were fat and become slim now
I love your channel, I always learn something new. I think you guys are really great! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Awesome video. I learned a lot! You didn’t mention Cantonese or other dialects/language of the Han. Would be great to highlight diversity even within Han Chinese.😉
What??Han are diverse too....wow
I'm Hmong myself...we have a long history in China dating back to the B.C....even though we have spread throughout the world we never forget we're we come from....to be honest I was surprised to see us on the list...btw thanks for your videos..
1:26 There are also plenty of Han Chinese who speak various Chinese dialects (Yue Chinese 粵語, Min Chinese 閩語, Wu Chinese 吳語, Gan Chinese 贛語 etc.)
Great video! I've been wanting to learn about different Chinese ethnic groups, but no idea where to start. Would love to see more f this!
Awesome video. Learned a lot here. Thanks for sharing!
I've learn these in school and its very interesting to learn other Chinese ethnic group and I'm Hmong! 👋
I'm Han Chinese but I don't have the Han mark....
+Jonathan Hung I think I took it since I'm not chinese but I have it lol
Teddy Grande lol
this is like the sixth toenail myth
same lol Im Han but no mark
+Jonathan Hung Is that really a thing? I thought that was pseudo-science.
Like see all the 56 ethnics of China. Love the overview. Please do more episodes for each ethnic. Like 30 min. mini episode of each ethnic. The story line will entail their way of life: food, dialects, clothing and marriage etc.
Awesome info guys. Changes my perspective on ethnicity all together.
China, is, like America, a melting pot of many ancient ethnicity.
Even the biggest group Han Chinese, they are a product of many different ethnic groups mixed marriage/combination throughout the thousand years of Chinese history.
From the combination Si-Yi (Rong-Di-Yi-Man) during the late Zhou dynasty, the combination of Xiongnu during the Han dynasty, the Xianbei during the Tang dynasty, the Khitan during Song dynasty, the Mongol during the Yuan, the Manchu during the Qing dynasty, and plus many thousand minorities throughout history.
Therefore, Chinese is a nationality like "American". A person can be ANY ethnicity and still be Chinese.
Yes you are correct pigboykool, and know your history quite well. But China is still ruled by Han Chinese Mandarin speaker only, and tends to discriminate other minority groups.
pigboykool Yes,you are right ,i am Chinese live in Europe ,Han Chinese is very Mixed too ,but Han culture is dominated culture in Chinese world ,Even mongolia control China ,they used han culture And most of noble Mongolian stayed in China And become "han Chinese ,such as family name Jin or Bao are original Mongolian family .
pigboykool Very true. I am trying to tell many ignorant people about this but they just dont get it.
@@sanmiaokingdom1843 Discrimination? Are you kidding me ?Other ethnic minorities have privileges in China, and Mongols and Manchus have ruled China in history.
No, chinese is not like American. Unlike America, they have immigrants coming in and becoming American. Those ethnic ppl have lived in China for thousands of years, even during the Silk Road ages.
So really when someone is described as “Chinese”, it is really describing a nationality not a race or ethnicity. It is the same as when you call someone American it is their NATIONALITY , they could be white,black, Asian etc… but they are American .Same goes for a lot of countries.
That's actually not how it works Asian American aren't really Americans to Asian people but black and white Americans are Americans
Why Asian Americans aren't American well half of them is fully Asian cultured while the other half is self haterd mainly Chinese American.
Korean American is either they are Korean or Korean American not American cus they still are connected to their so called Korean culture.
Wow, didn't know my people would be mention on here, the Miao/Hmong. Not many people know about us. Glad that you both did! :)
As a Hmong/Miao from the USA... I applauded you guys for using the word Hmong...I am told that in South East Asia... the Hmongs took the word Miao/mao as offensive... I remember asking my dad, who the Miao/Mao, people were... He said they are not us, we are not Chinese people, we live in Loas for ages. I asked him because we were suppose to do a report for class on our heritage, and typing Hmong, at the time, 90s... got you no where... But typing Vietnam refugees, you see Mao.. and that's how I ended up with pictures, stories, of the famed Mao people who helped the downed American Pilot, led by a General, named Vang Pao....
ScorpiusTheScorpin In fact, hmong is a branch of miao. Not all miao are Hmong. In China, only the miao of the western branch is hmong, and the rest miao is not hmong.
Bettas Zht that’s right and not a lot of Hmong people know that.
The Hmong are a beautiful culture. I'm aware of this attitude in southeast Asia towards the word "Miao.". It seems like the word is not considered offensive in China. It's strange how this division has emerged.
Is it really because "Miao" sounds like a cat in some language? Or is that a myth?
Fun fact Miao was stateless people live on the hill...that's why they called Miao(wild cat/barbarian) coz they won't obey han chinese authority...and some left china and went to SEA due to goverment expansion
China was multicultural until 1 ethnic group dominates the land by population
Why do you write that Hui people and Uyghurs speak arabic? Of course, it's the language of islam, but they do not speak it in everyday life.
And manchu people almost don't speak their native language, because they almost forgot it.
Thank you guys for your videos, I really like them, I've just pointed out little mistakes :)
True, I am Hui guy living in Qinghai my parents are actually working in Fuzhou so I am chilling at my grandpa with my sisters and brothers. And Arabic is actually our language to speak in mosque or to talk to other Muslims which are from other places. Btw Taiwan recognizes us as Islamic Han because we live spreading out in China, like Zheng He he was Hui from Yunnan. We are also Sinitic like Han or Tibetans and Burmese etc.
Rahman Yu Dong 听说回族并不是根据种族来看的，是根据信仰
Uighur doesn't speak Arabic they have their own language
Shuo Cheng 是的我们是他的汉族但来自青海的伊斯兰教的问候
Hui people don't speak Arabic or Farisi. They are Han Chinese who converted to Islamic religion. I'm a Hui. I don't speak any of those languages, just a few phrashes.
Please do more stuff like this please :) This is a super cool video. However I think Miao chinese is also in Vietnam, Thailand and other SEA (South East Asian) countries as well.
+Chloe Chang Nice see another who enjoys learning about diverse cultures.
You are right the Miao who are also known as Hmong and Meo also live in Vietnam and I believe Lao. There are/were are huge number of sub groups of Miao each with their own distinct costume. In ancient times they were the rulers of much of southern china.
+Chloe Chang right! Finally! But yeah Hmong/Miao/Meo are really all over the place. Both my parents are Hmong, and my dad was born in Laos and came to Thailand during the Laotian Civil War as baby. He grew up most of his life in a Refugee camps. My mom was born in Thailand, and my family and I came to the United States in 2004. This is really exciting, its not everyday that people talk about the Hmong people. Hmong's are such a small minority groups compare to the other ethnicity groups.
Ze Yang Thanks for sharing the personal history of your family with us.
Ze Yang miao people are mysterious in chinese view...a lot of mysterious novels involve miao people
This video is both entertaining and humorous. Thank you for sharing.
Very informative video thanks! I live in Sichuan,since it´s so near from Tibet sometimes you see Tibetans in Chengdu.
+Helsic Yiverus I am Sichuanese! So much missing the foods there!
Tibetans are not ethnic groups of China. If you have researched better, Tibet was a forcefully occupied nation by the Communist China. China is a selfless poison in this universe, doing all those inhuman acts. Now China is trying to occupy Hong Kong just like Tibet and East Turkistan.
Free Tibet, Free East Turkistan, Free Hong Kong

@Green Scenery you will find me everywhere
@Green Scenery how did you come to know my location?
thankyou for this video, i've had to explain my ethnic background so much in my life and people are still confused. i always say that im Hmong and they pout as if my answer doesnt satisfy their curiousity. i guess thats because they want to be able to associate me to a certain country. then they ask "where is that at?" that is i when i tell them that my ethnicity is a minority group that lives in china to southeast asia. but some people here in OC cant grasp the concept of it. i always end up saying "you know how there is Native Americans in America but theyre not the same group and lives in different regions? well same concept but in asia."
I love your content guys!
Wow Yi is your girlfriend, I thought she was your friend. Way to go bro
You guys should do a video on the Hui's!
There are also plenty of Hui people (回族) in Quanzhou, Fujian (福建省泉州市), said to be descendants of ancient Persian and Arab traders who have arrived in China back during Quanzhou's heyday as one of the world's greatest ports, "a haven for commerce and trade" as described by Marco Polo during the Yuan and Ming dynasties.
China's first mosque, known as Ashab Mosque (清淨寺) is also in Quanzhou city, built in 1009 AD, when Quanzhou was also known as the starting point for the Maritime Silk Road trade stretching from East Asia down to Southeast Asia, and all the way to the Middle East / Africa.
Thank you for this very informative, but humorous video. 👌👌👌🎈😊
Love your videos +Double Chen!
I'm of Han ethnicity but I don't have that mark :(
Also interesting to learn that Zhuang (fourth tone) ethnicity is the 2nd largest group, because I also thought it was something else. Keep it up!
isn't the first tone?
+Oscar Nehm Checked multiple sources and its definitely the fourth tone. Here's one with the actual pronunciation. zh.forvo.com/word/%E5%A3%AE%E6%97%8F/#zh
I'm so glad you made this video! I know it makes sense to mostly talk about Han Chinese since that's the vast majority of Chinese people, but I love learning about the lesser known (outside of China that is) people groups!
I seriously adore and appreciate your cultural videos!
Also, I saw Shen Yun years ago, I'm so glad that you're recommending it because it was a phenomenal and gorgeous experience
OK some amusing stuff, but more importantly, very informative and interesting. Thanks
You guys are awesome! I'm glad you did this video. Not many people know about the 55 other ethnic groups. Keep up the awesomeness!!!
Wow! I'm amazed you guys had Hmong people! I love it!
Can you do the 100 varieties of potatoes in your next video?
wtfffff are you actually everywhere !!!
+Funnyguyfun7 he's on every single channel with a asian host
What have potatoes done to you bro?
Yes like sweet potato or dick potato etcetra.
Two cool dudes. Subscribed : )
I've always wondered why I had these lines on my arm when other people didn't! That's so cool!
I've got a question! Does one's family name have any bearing on the ethnic group one might belong to or be descended from?? I've got a friend whose family name is Hui but all of her family (at least this generation) are from HK and speak Cantonese. Does her family name mean she's likely to be descended from the Hui Chinese?
+Jay Hughes: Yep, by tracing the family name is one of the easiest way to found out his/her ancestral background of a person other than testing his/her DNA.
It is one of the reason why the Chinese see their children carrying on their last name in the next generation is so important.
+pigboykool though sometimes tracing family name isn't the same as tracing your genetic heritage. As, because carrying on the family name has been so important in China and other Confucian societies, people with no son or children of their own might adopt someone to pass their name as a last resort.
If one had daughters, then adopting the husband of your daughter, so that he could carry on the name was an option, but it could also be someone completely unrelated. So while you can draw conclusions from a family name of what a person's ancestry is likely to have been, it's not completely certain. Especially with more famous names like Kong.
+Jay Hughes No. My cousin's last name is Hui. It is a Cantonese romanization of the name Xu or Hsu depending on where u are from. The Hui people is a shortened form of the word for Islam in Chinese, at least from what I know since Islam is Hui Jiao.
+DarthJF: Even it is possible to have adopting children to bear one's family name, however, majority of the people are the decendents of the Family Name trees.
Up till Qing Dynasty and the beginning of Republic of China, no matter if you are poor or rich, each family (usually a village) strictly recorded down every single person in his/her Family Name tree. People can easily trace back their ancestor for hundreds of years with these records.
There is a book called the 100 surnames. Anyone who's surname is not on that MIGHT be an ethnic minority. Theres been lots of mixing so its only a very rough guide.
Really guys I'm Han?
my parents came from bangladesh
+maz khatun I have it too lol I guess I'm han even though my parents are from pakistan
Why do you ask
+maz khatun The Han are everywhere. Just odds, I guess.
+maz khatun There are a lot of Han... you think none of them went south?
+maz khatun I'm from Serbia and, apparently, I'm also Han.
Thanks for sharing !
This is really cool thank you :)
hui is an ethnic han who is Muslim, they are called hui because Islam is not because of ethnicity, and hui does not speak Arabic or farsi, the Arabic language they use only in religious matters is not daily language.
So do they speak Mandarin as mother tongue? And in which letters do they write?
I have no Han Solo's mark, am I a wookie now ?
+Jari S try the wookie call and you will prove it true or false

then you are dude nukem, the son of duke
great video, I never knew about a lot of these different languages
we need more of this content!
The Han was already mixed by other groups in the ancient years.
There are no Pure Race in the first place.
@Ghost Reaper there’re people who are 100% Indian, Irish, people from African...
Nope, depends on the area.... northern people in shanghai, beijing they are mixed or forgotton their roots but in cities/areas like chengdu, fujian, shenzhen, wuhan, etc still have majority pure han people who are shorter in height
source?
@@shawnv123 hi, common history in the history book, I'm not historian, but I know that the time before the Qin Dynasty around 200bc, this region was full of countries or city-states with each one has their own language, meurement . Different philosophies, clothing and money (medium of exchange) ... only left with some dialects today . The word han appears only after the Han dynasty.
Fun fact, what you're describing with the Zhuang minority sounds like animism (belief in living souls/spirits in natural objects) and not polytheism (belief in more than one god) :D Also it's interesting that there are ‘Hui Streets', like Chinatowns outside of China.
Thats like in india delhi has jama masjid which is an area of indian Muslim food, and mumbai has mohammad ali road
Hey great show.
Dan and Yi? that's great!!! great educational video, but I would have understand it a bit more with subtitles of the Chinese dialect names.
This is so interesting, shout out to everyone in china, love from a kabyle in Algeria.
Uyghurs and Hui don't speak arabic and persian languages. Uyghurs are turkic people, and Hui are muslim chinese. They speak a northern chinese dialect which is much more close to mandarin than other dialects
Uyghurs speak their own native language. It is nothing like Chinese. I know an Uyghur.
+Mani Elliott i didnt say that uyghurs speak language similar to chinese, i said they re turkic people
Ok.
yes.
You know people can quote you, right?
When referring to the Uyghurs "They speak a northern chinese dialect which is much *_more close to mandarin than other dialects_*"
Hey Mike and Dan. I think your posters and pillows in the background are awesome, but I feel like they are pretty distracting. Maybe it's just me, but I'll be listening to what your saying and all in a sudden I'm replaying Princess Bride in my head. I'd rather be focused on listening to you guys. ;)
Lotus N these clowns think they are white and try to talk and act white 😈
Very informative and presented in a fun fashion. Ten thumbs up!
(Sorry, I'm all thumbs today.)
peace stg.
I love how the Hui People are characterized with cleanliness. It is an obligation of every Muslim to be clean at all times.
I can't. "50 ethnic minorities making up only 9% of china. Here's an ethnic minority group"
*minority group still bigger than my entire country's population, not just ethnic but total population*
You should do the ten smallest. I'm sure they are just as interesting.
I saw shen yun when they came to Kansas City mo I really enjoyed the show...it’s worth going to.
I'm half Han half Manchu and I honestly don't think even my great grandma from the manchu side knows how to speak the manchu language. The language is totally dying out sadly :/
I liked when you said tea in mandarin it was the same like in our language "čaj" (slovak) maybe because of russian influence.
Ps. I dont have the han mark ;)
The Slovak word originally comes from Mandarin. All variants of *čaj* comes from Mandarin. All variants of *tea* comes from Cantonese
@@emdadahmed5592 Fascinating!
Thank you for sharing
Can you guys make a series on the the history and culture of each ethnicity in China?
Yay for Hmong! :)
chai yang finally we are known....
oh c’mon who doesn’t know you?
catc yang You mean Miao
BuBbLeTeA AeStHeTiCs been known, just not looking in the right places.
I'm ethnically Han but I haven't heard of the Han mark thing before... I'm guessing it's a childhood story that some Han parents tell their children?
Now that you guys have covered some Chinese ethnic groups, how about covering some Han sub-ethnic groups, e.g. Cantonese, Hakka, Hokkien, Shanghainese, Hainanese etc.? I think that would be something interesting yet not known by many non-Chinese, too.
你好小眼睛
上海人都成sub group了还行
Incredible update.. 90 pc han. Wondered.🤣 I'm writing fr northeast India known as Chen konyak. The Wa of yunna people's culture ,tradition and living lifestyles are no exception. I find ur video informative. Thank you 👍🤟
The SHEN YUN u guys talked about in the end is organized by falungong. Its a Chinese politics related thing . I didn't realize such a simple cultural looking event would relate to politics!LOL
I believe the Miao/Hmong population have gone up if we are to look at the ethnic population itself not concentrating it in China
Oh yeah Miao/Hmong are also really artistic with singing, and spiritual arts!
Yay!! Damn I'm so late on this video!! Yay! For Miao/Hmong!!
Good info
im australian born to a filipino mother and a dutch father, yet i have the Han mark... someone has some explaining to do
Your mother has chinese origins alot of chinese went to the philippines many years ago so yeah
we must be talking Centuries then, like Ghenghis khan old.
I'm suuuuper white and have the Han mark 😶
yOu haVe sOme sPLAinInG tO Do!!
I'm Turkic and I have a Han mark too while I am not Han Chinese.
Do you know something about People of Sinlao, it was mentioned in the Treaty of Tientsin. Thank you.
Wow! My teacher is actually from China, and he is Kazakh.
Correction: Arabic is not Uyghur's communication language and a lot of Uyghur people do/can not speak Mandarin at all. but only uyghur language.
Yasasin Uyghur Eli,Yasasin Sherqiy Turkistan
#NeMutluTurkumDiyene
We Hui also don't talk Arabic only use to talk with Uyghurs or Salars etc who don't speak Mandarin
I just want to make a little correction. In the video, the Han language was listed as Mandarin, but the Han also speaks more than just Mandarin. They also speak Shanghainese, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, and etc (they're all related to the Old Chinese language and a shared writing). These speakers of the several dialects/languages make up the 1.2 billion people.
Dude, in reality there are over 300 dialects spoken in mainland China itself. And the Han, being the vast majority of the population mostly speak Mandarin as their language (or IF they know more than 1) they speak Mandarin 1st since it's whats tought and used in China now. The Han are spread out in the main areas of China with large cities and that includes places like Shanghai, Guangzhou, and other areas where many of the individual dialects were indead originated. Since Mandarin is tought in school, most families who speak other dialect may continue to pass down their own dialects in the family, but they will/must learn Mandarin. In reality it is vastly impossible to calculate how many Han themselves know a second dialect (if any).
Would it be Cantonese from far Southern China, the Hakka next door, Min a little farther up, Wu to the far East coast, or Gan farther inward... who knows. And Shanghainese is actually spoken by around 14 million Chinese currently. That's isn't even in the top 10 in China. It's to complicated to calculate how many Han know a 2nd dialect, then find out WHICH dialect it is. As I said it's more common for people who know the minority dialects to learn Mandarin, than the Han, who the vast majority naturally know Mandarin learn another dialect. In China most people try to actually learn English as a 2nd language in school to do well. Even now in Hong Kong, it's won't be fully part of China until 2047, but they are already trying to switch from teaching Cantonese to Mandarin.
In reality it makes sense to just list Mandarin under Han.
wow! i really have to go see shen yun now! minnesota!
I like how the poop consistently shows it's face between the mike and dan throughout the vid!
im white and i have a mark on both my arms :O
Same but I'm black

Oh my God!))) I have same, I am kazakh)))
I have Han mark, and i'm from Poland. Intresting.
I'm from Finland and I also have it.
Im from Brazil but I have Han mark , im chinese. hahaha
I'm half swedish half northern irish, i've got it too.
i'm han chinese on my father's side and zhuang on my mother's side, but i am CONSTANTLY told that i look korean/japanese/vietnamese, and have even heard thai and filipino before. my name is also legally spelt hana and 'hana lee' does sound super korean lol
Holy Crap! I am Han Chinese and I do have that line on my arms. I thought you were just messing around, I have never noticed it until now. Thanks for sharing!
Cool I'm Polish Han (Because of those lines XD)
"separated like their dialects, like in India"
Indian ethnic groups are just separated by dialects? No. The languages are extremely different, some quite more than others. That's like saying that Wolof, Spanish, and Mandarin are all just different dialects.
the best way to show the difference is the European languages. indian languages are like European languages
What is wolof
Great video, Kyrgyzstan is pronounced keer-giz-stan. ;-) Han rhymes with pan, not barn. My ex bosses were Manchurian, ex partner was part Hui part Manchurian. I most frequently ate Lanzhou La Mian as I got fed up with pork pork pork all the time.
So get one each of yue, wu, min, gan, xiang, jin, ping, hakka, etc for great wall? Compare languages and dialects?
I love china 🇨🇳
Ничё скоро...
Hui are really just Muslim HAN Chinese
Yes, but Han Chinese in general have diverse look because of intermarriage with other ethnics. Northern Han have more northern mix, southern Han have more southern mix, and Hui have western Asian mix
But we have Persian + Arab blood and you don't. xD
The definition of Hui blood is as ambiguous as Latino/Hispanic people. There's all sorts of mixing in different degrees. The government just likes to group all Han-speaking muslims as Hui. Some Hui are Han forced to convert, while others mostly have a mix of Mongol blood.
True I am Hui Chinese and we are not like Arabs or Poorsians btw it doesnt matter with beards its just a gene not ethnic.
Tabgach Giyamhu What languages do you speak? I guess that Manchurian isn't one of them as it is almost extinct.
not all
Background information. China counts some non-Han groups who have been living within the territory of China since history as ethnic groups, even though some of these ethnic groups now have their own countries. These ethnic groups are ethnically, culturally and linguistically similar as those living in other countries, but they have Chinese nationalities. Some examples are Jing people (Vietnamese), Dai people (Thai), Chaoxian people (Korean), Eluosi people (Russian), Menggu people (Mongolian) Hasake people (Kazakh), Keerkezi people (Kyrgyz), Tajike people(Tajik), etc.
It's intriguing to see Mike Chen talk about something not food-related.
