Actually in the past france occupied morroco and then morroco become a france colony a long time but they are arabs, then morroco take there independence and became a morroco that we know now, then french and english became a second languages in this country and arabic became the basic language, so if she speaks french cuz morrocans have to study french and english in thiere schools also arabic as well, but they arw arabians already
This is my first time watching one of your yt videos and I just wanted to say I love how cheerful you are! :) Also I scrolled through the comments and I'm so sorry an insane amount of pervs are following you. I'm cringing through the screen. I hope it has gotten better since the release of this video.
As a Moroccan I'm surprised I never picked up on it, but seeing her mom and the pictures I had no doubt and here I am realizing that its Pok-Imane instead of Poki-Mane as I thought it was smh, but hey I'm proud to see our people thriving!
Moroccans want to be Europeans sooo bad, it’s embarrassing. They legit wanted to force themselves into the EU, and the EU rejected them and they still went on begging to join years later. Even went as far as rejecting the AU.
For all of y'all that are curious, there was a genetic mutation that occurred amongst the indigenous north african Amazigh peoples a couple thousand years ago which resulted in the "asian facial characteristics" we see. We are a diverse people group, some of us look asian, some look white, some look black and some look brown.
@Swedish Ghostface the race theory proposed by white eugenicists in the 1800s have attempted to confine human raciality into 3 or 4 main segments. "Caucasoid", "Negroid" and "Mongoloid". This eugenicist method of race division is not accepted nor is it acknowledged in the sphere of genealogy and human anthropology at all in the modern age of science. This outdated method of separating people groups based on tiny dentures in the skull and through measuring the occipital lobe size has been slammed down by the modern scientific community as pure nonsensical pseudo-science. I am not white, never will be. White refers to having fair origins in the european continent, if you are a blonde syrian you are not considered white but "white passing". Big difference. North Africans who look asian are not asian but asian passing.
@@adamdfc9809 idk know why people seem to think "asian eyes" are so uncommon when it's really the opposite, not a single person in my family is mixed race, yet we all have features that make people assume that we are, curiously enough it's always foreingers. I suppose familiarity plays a part in that. I think this also comes with the incessant obsession of wanting to label people. The planet is beyond diverse and it's jarring that even now people struggle to understand that.
@@jonathansoko1085 Her first language is Moroccan Darija, she was born in Morocco and then they moved to Canada. I assume they moved to a Frenceh speaking city.
As a French Canadian, I love to see how every French speaker has a different accent. France, Canada, Haiti, Congo, none of them have the same accent and it’s fascinating
im not fluent in french but i’ve been learning it in school for about 3 years now and i also watch a lot of videos of people speaking french and they all sound the same to me for the most part 😅, i have noticed tho that european french definitely sounds a lot faster then the rest
Those "asian" eyes are simple to explain. You have Berbers/Atlas tribe eyes. An ethnic indigenous group race that had its own culture. Highly recommend you research their history, they have fabulous costumes and art.
I think some of it might come from how she does her makeup, as well. I have only seen a picture of her without makeup once, though, so I might be misremembering things.
I get asked if I'm asian too, I legitimately think its winged or cat eyeliner. It never happened until I started wearing the eyeliner. It makes sense because the eyeliner is supposed to elongate your eyes more, but I never thought of it as "looking asian" I just felt it was very pretty. It's definitely not a bad thing, I take it as a compliment.
I thought like you might be asian (just because of the eyes), but when you said you’re moroccan like that made sooo much sense. she’s like sooo moroccon
the eyes are actually not super asian looking closely as the epicanthal fold is more outward than inward which is a western European trait rather than asian.
@@derekwang2215 I mean you’re right, but I meant how they are narrower than usual on the sides, I thought she might have some asian ancestory like 1/8 or 1/16 but when she said she’s morrocan that made so much sense because moroccans tend to have that narrower and kinda tilted eyes on the sides and just overall she just looks so moroccan
When you speak in French i literally understand and it all comes back to me. I'll listen without looking while doing something else and I can still understand every word. I just can't speak any anymore. I cant remember everything fully when it's my turn to speak. But it's nice knowing I can still understand it
Same like I can read articles and texts in French and understand when someone’s speaking it but can I build one grammatically correct sentence? No.way.

@@SritaCaramelo Spain just invaded a few cities and after converted it into a colony with no race mixing, the only thing why Moroccan people are like Spanish is it because they are very very close geographically

@@sofia_rms Can you imagine if she did a video trying a curly hair routine, it would be amazing And I bet it would attract new female viewers But that's also not really the kind of videos she makes.. lol
She made that name first wanting people to say Pok-Imane, but by pronoucning her first name right, but people said it in the way we refer it to now, so she said ight might as well leave it as it is.
Well yea but she wants fans to call her Poki or Pokimane, she doesn't like people that don't know her call her Imane, but she likes when people shes friend's with call her Imane :) Just saying so please if u call her Imane, call her Poki or Pokimane from now on

@Ayoob Musanovic I think Joao meant Morocco and Portugal don't share borders. Spain and Portugal obviously share a border. Spain and Morocco also share a border. There is a small part of Spain in Africa.
@@thequandlecultiston3157 yes but when ppl say Asian they're referring to the race Asian not geographical location. When ppl say Asian they're refer to east/south-east/south Asians.
@@thequandlecultiston3157 arabs and african arabs are almost the same race as they share similar culture and physical features. When it comes to race remember geography doesnt matter. Also it doesn't male sense to classify Syrians and chinese people in the same race does it???
So little known fact is that a Muslim empire captured and controlled Spain for around 700 years so it is likely that's where that genetic lineage is derived from.
I know many Moroccans who look like her, with small eyes like that, but with headscarfs or being in a Moroccan environment, you won’t think they’re Asian. Poki has a different attire, which brings out the Asian more.

Well I’ve been watching a adopted person nice to know
I didn’t think I’d be watching the video but she’s so charming that I stayed liked and subscribed lol
Same here I don't usually watch these kinda of videos but she's funny i ended up watching the whole thing
literally same lol
y wouldn't you wanna(?) watch it.
Same here
* cough, cough * I think I’m dying from cringe.....omg..I need help
Omg POKI, your hair is beautiful. You should talk about it more, i had no idea
Just imagine some youtuber doing this and the result come
You are actually adopted😂🤣😂
K
Ye and then they wouldnt upload it cause it might get personal . Its not a live stream u know.
Hor Panha what’s wrong with that
That would be personal A.F
would make good content tbh
BUT WAIT I REALLY WANNA SEE POKI STYLE HER HAIR NATURALLY
ME TOO. I would die to see her wear her natural hair more frequently
@@sofia_rms Can you imagine if she did a video trying a curly hair routine, it would be amazing
And I bet it would attract new female viewers
But that's also not really the kind of videos she makes.. lol
Let's just take a moment to love Pokimane's Mom's Love and Support, but mostly her personality!!! ❤️
YESSSS WE STAN HER MOM!!!
Idk why people assume she is Asian. She looks nothing like an Asian.
Im half asian..and most of my friends are half...she looks half
maybe it just her makeup
@Kabyle3arabii lmao, north Africans aren't semites. She looks amazigh, cope
@@cupcake7217
Yes
@@cupcake7217she is Berber goofy
Me realising the name Pokimane comes from Pok-Imane 👁️👄👁️
oml what i just realised that too lol
She made that name first wanting people to say Pok-Imane, but by pronoucning her first name right, but people said it in the way we refer it to now, so she said ight might as well leave it as it is.
Are u white
Well yea but she wants fans to call her Poki or Pokimane, she doesn't like people that don't know her call her Imane, but she likes when people shes friend's with call her Imane :)
Just saying so please if u call her Imane, call her Poki or Pokimane from now on
I realised that when i was watching one of OTV’s podcast when they were discussing about the names they are known for/preferred people to call them. Like toast is Jeremy!
Your mom's so amazing Poki😆Happy you had a mother like her😊
Been Watching for 6 minutes
Pokimane: let’s get in to this......
Thank you so much
She wanted to flex with her french
Did you guys know that my friend killed Pokimane. Dont believe me. Check out his video. th-cam.com/video/FJqoHDM-Efc/w-d-xo.html
Plz give him some love.
Shunyu Yao fuckin honestly omg
Thanks
Poki’s mom is so freaking sweet and adorable!! Love her ❤️
Poki’s mom: your friends are so nice.

August Bjørnsti Lol so true
This was before Michael came though
So true tho bro

Me : *eats sushi *
Also me : im 0.00000000001 ℅ Japanese
If you reversed that it would've been much funnier
LOL. Apparently I'm mostly Italian but hate Pizza or Pasta. I love Sushi instead which is just weird. I've been to Italy and I don't even like it
@@Ricky911_ lmao its not weird 😂
@@quincyf7161 oof your right
@@1anx463 Juss edit dat
3:45 I learned that Pokimane speaks French with her parents
well....even tho im not Moroccan i know that morocans use french as their main language
@@Asadig335 no second main language after Darija
Im Moroccan and our main language is arabic not french.
French is our second language.
@@iliass_zde "Darija" just call it arabic😂
Unlive try understanding Darija if you’re middle eastern and speak Arabic...
Her momma s lovely!! Such a kind person! 🥺
when poki went into “🇫🇷” mode, i felt that.
No it would be 🇨🇦 because she speaks Canadian French and lived in Quebec
@@donyea.carver she actually speaks france french, which she probably learned from her time living in morocco and speaking with her Moroccan family. dont think she lived in quebec. maybe ontario
@@sp3595 she has a french Canadian accent, im french from Paris I would know. + her french is a bit broken but its okay
@@krystalisyapping I can guarantee you that she knows French because Morocco was colonized by France, and the people of Morocco started learning the language. today almost all Moroccans know french
@@adamsalih2859 okay and as a parisien BORN AND RAISED, I said her french is broken, she seems to understand it but dont speak very well and she has a french CANADIAN accent. Which is not the same french as the one from France btw
I never watch her videos but I clicked this because I always wondered about her ancestry.
Same
honestly same
Same but don’t she a commercial with Gordon Hayward and more about a gaming computer or something
Same
Kapp
Ok, but what if like she’s still adopted but her real mother was Moroccon as well. After she hanged up her mom was like phew, that was a close one.
Loooooll 😭😂😂
Close indeed.
STFU
U dont know morocco so go to sleep
It means she's Muslim?
i love when she makes eye contact with the camera, is so cool, breaks the 4th wall every time un every video stream. i love it
shes not in a cartoon re-re
Poki: Hey mom I took a DNA test
Pokes mom: 🗿
LOL
Lol
LOOOOL
LOL
lol?
POKI STARTS SPEAKING FRENCH
ME: MAYBE SHES FRENCH
hrbo starmixz no Moroccan was colonized by France
or Belgian
In Africa all speaks french
your dumb
@@vasilklisurkin1087 umm no
For a Moroccan she sure knows little of history of Morocco since she was surprised that she had 8% of Portuguese and Spanish dna.
I was surprised she was surprised. 😂
@Ayoob Musanovic I-... Portugal and Spain dont share borders, they are in opposite sides of the mediterranean sea, but are close to each other
Edit: I meant Portugal and spain dont share borders with morocco***
@@joaoneves8544 uhm... are you high or what? XD
i mean, i wouldnt be surprised as arabs conquered the iberian peninsula through morroco
@Ayoob Musanovic I think Joao meant Morocco and Portugal don't share borders.
Spain and Portugal obviously share a border.
Spain and Morocco also share a border. There is a small part of Spain in Africa.
I’m from Morocco! My name is also Imane, and I’ve been mistakenly asked if I was from Japan, Mexico , Brazil, Spain, or even North American?
I am North American but, mostly asked that
Americans don’t know anything so wouldn’t worry and most of them are not even white anymore
Typical moroccan Mom 😂
Gives you a life lesson ever time you have a discussion
Love you both and respect your origins pride ❤️
just borrow Michael's"Trigger Me Elmo"
i’m asian but my mom and dad are white am i adopted
Everyone:YES
Koromi YT they’re not white
No why would they pick her
Yes
@Quisable he/she is adopted by white parents, so white yes
No, Your mom and dad are adopted.
I never knew what Offline TV was or had seen any person associated with the group when I first saw Pokimane, and I still thought she was Asian
Yeah she's not acually asian shes Arab. Morrocan mainly
@@isaacfoster2820 wait isn't arabs asian? Part of the asian continent?
@@isaacfoster2820 or is it arabs in the african continent?
@@thequandlecultiston3157 yes but when ppl say Asian they're referring to the race Asian not geographical location. When ppl say Asian they're refer to east/south-east/south Asians.
@@thequandlecultiston3157 arabs and african arabs are almost the same race as they share similar culture and physical features. When it comes to race remember geography doesnt matter. Also it doesn't male sense to classify Syrians and chinese people in the same race does it???
So little known fact is that a Muslim empire captured and controlled Spain for around 700 years so it is likely that's where that genetic lineage is derived from.
berber muslim empire*
And that did not end well...
Moors

U literally got half of the emojis wrong, some of them are Japanese 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@@larry_tingtsai728 some appeared on there when i searched for chinese lmao, my bad. It's just a joke anyways
@@alipali did u delete some of the emojis xd?
@@larry_tingtsai728 yeah lmao
@@alipali what were the original emojis you've commented
I would've never guessed she's Moroccan mostly because of the small eyes,The moment I realized it's because of the makeup, She looks SO Moroccan
@Sousa Teuzii its amazigh, chleuh is an arabic insult
I know many Moroccans who look like her, with small eyes like that, but with headscarfs or being in a Moroccan environment, you won’t think they’re Asian. Poki has a different attire, which brings out the Asian more.
@@PurpleSirens Yeah true
@@omardjedidi7871 No it’s Tachleuhit
@@PurpleSirens That's soo true
The spanish/portuguese is very understandable knowing the history between morocco and spain
pokimane: *calls mom*
also pokimane: *starts talking french*
me and my year 7 knowledge of french: yeah , I understand like 72% of this.
i know merci. hhaha
Joe Ekhsan Nasir I’m pretty sure that’s thank you
I was understanding everything they were saying lol
Kelo t’es francais mec?
Lol I'm moroccan but I live in france, and I can speak english and a bit of spanish...
Wait am I poki's brother ??🤩
Damn, I haven’t seen a Poki video in so long.
I’m realising now how much I miss that cheerfull voice!
Same
Same lol
As one of the only wise twitch girl gamers once said "am I adopted. .. Maybe.."
No shes not "makeup" my friend and its truly terrifying
SIMP
Bread boy no Bread for you
Ok
SIMP
Your mom has some really good values Poki. Honestly I was looking for this video for a while, as I watched a future Imane (her other channel) video. I'm glad I found it
Straight out of Africa nice I didn't know you were Moroccan anyways hii from South Africa I have some Egyptian in my DNA from like great great grandfather
Same here ZA
hello from Egypt
I’m full Egyptian boii
Do you speak Afrikaans? 🇿🇦
@@sarugbyfan8134a little not fluent at all but I have to do afrikaans at school but I am fluent in Zulu and can understand xhosa and suthu
I'm more Asian than Pokimane and look less Asian than Pokimane... damn.
Naos I think the only reason she look s Asian is because of the makeup
De lepon la pel siv honseva
@@ImpactsTH-cam So what you're saying is, I need to wear makeup? Gotcha.
@@ImpactsTH-cam and her friends
Yup
It's cute that twitch streamer called this type of video an irl video. XD
Normal youtuber call this "a video".
Or "A vlog"
Imagine if it was a crazy fan that wanted her sliva and checking stuff out
6:01 Poki's elbows bend inwards, cool stuff
It's called hyperextension
I know a girl whose fingers do that. Its very disturbing
Dude i can do that and i know lots of people who can also do it. I dont think its that rare lol
Double jointed
@@Ke.442 its not that rare i dont think ik at least 3 people and more but at least 3
I’m sorry if people think this is annoying because of “hOw DiD yOu NoT kNoW”
BUT
SINCE WHEN DID POKI SPEAK FRENCH .-.
She was born in morocco and then she went to an all French school after she moved to canada until she was in seventh grade
Azure E) ahhh ok. Thanks :D
The second Language here in Morocco is French and not English so it's normal ;D
In Morocco they mostly speak french
._.
Pokimane is an oracle. Predicting among us with the "sus" thing and covid with the arm cough for 2020 is one thing, but the cloning scandal of 2027, that's some talent.
The word "sus" is aave and has been used for a couple decades now, but "sus" is now really popular because of among us
CLONING? SAY SIKE RIGHT NOW 🧍🏾♀️
@@kuhromi2995 sime
😂😂😂😂😂
Sus came from America in the black community
“Just tell me if I’m adopted” looks just like her mom*
I like how I understand everything she’s saying in French bc I’m Canadian I have to take French classes so I understands what there saying
Same
I half French so I know to
i live ina house full of people speaking french so i sorta understand what she said as wsell
I also understand what they're saying completely cause I'm reading the subtitles
Lmao this was me too throughout the entire video
I just took a french gcse and wanted to forget about it but u just bring back all the nightmares
Yxng God me too @yxng God
I did a biology one today 👍
Cameron Davies oh no
Me too lmfao
St chads?
Poki mom - you’re adopted
Poki - laughing but low key dying inside
You should try AncestryDNA Test Next, because AncestryDNA Test will tell you what years your Ancestors came to America, my Friend?
"You are sus" she predicted the future meta
Edit: OMG THE LIKESSSSS. MUAHAHAHAHA LIKES FOR THE LIKES GOD. LOL
yeah XD

Mom used a 200 IQ move to not be voted off.

I’m 100% Asian, My skin is ridiculously black and I regret myself for tht cause now the entirety of America hates me 😭
Your mother is pretty awesome. Within a couple minutes she complimented you and friends, gave great advice and made you laugh. The world needs more people like this!
Me as an African or any African in that case it's so weird just thinking about it
•She’s African like me (I'm morrocan)
•She speaks French like me ( Congolese to)
Damn you really shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover
Eritreans aren't arab.
I come from africa and i am born in africa, turns out i hav asian dna drom my dad
