a full day of speaking hakka (again)

Hello dear people on the internet, here is another vlog in my mother tongue, Hakka. As a multilingual, I couldn't help but mix it with some words in English, Dutch and Surinamese, since my Hakka vocab is not the biggest. I hope you enjoyed this anyway and that you are staying safe.

P.s. here are some links of things I mentioned in the video:
1. the podcast I was listening to:
2. unfortunately, the yoga practice I did is not free anymore, I'm sorry :(

Sending my love,
M

I’m half Hakka from my mother’s side and born and raised in New York City. She is no longer alive but I witness her life of courage, hard-work ethic and hospitality. I regret not learning to speak Hakka since Mandarin is spoke at home and only heard her use Hakka with her mother/my grandmother. Only ate in 1 Hakka restaurant in Chinatown. I’m proud of my Hakka heritage and was raised in those ways. Great video as it helps me re-explore the Hakka culture and cuisine.

Wow, your hakka is impressive. I can understand you very well. I'm hakka from England. Keep it up and never lose it!

[AndreaKChen]

Wow, I'm hakka born in Panama and I just realized that we have different accent I didnt know it exist. Thank you for making this video. I've been apart from my family for a long time and havent heard anyone speaking hakka for a while and I dont want to forget speaking and listening ❤

This video is so refreshing to hear! I speak hakka but I’ve noticed that every video I’ve watched of hakka, intonations were always different. Your pronunciation is as close for me to understand the way I speak it.

Never heard Hakka before but I can understand most of what you say from Cantonese, a pinch of Mandarin and a touch of imagination! Fantastic thank you

My mom spoke hakka and I've always wanted to learn :( Unfortunately my grandma died and now my mom has no one to talk to in hakka, it feels nice knowing I can still find others who also speak it

Hong Kong born Hakka living in the UK. Thanks for the great video.

[weizhezhen]

I really like your hakka videos. They are fantastic. I am a Cantonese Chinese learning hakka.

Your Hakka Vocab is on Fire, Chelle🔥🔥👌, . Another awesome video👍.. They do make me laugh. 🤣

You almost got it. Lol. Cabbage is Ya Choy. You mentioned in the video cabbage is Soungh Choy. Lettuce is Soungh Choy.

I am an ABC born in New York City, USA. My parents are from Southern China. It is good you are making these videos. It helps sharpen my Hakka. I understand 99% of your Hakka. 👍

Nice to come across your video. I am Hakka from the same village as you; Guangdong, Dongguan, Feng Guang, Huang Dong, Liang Pai Wui. I’ve also heard Linglam/Lingnam. We are Hung/Wan & Cheng (Cantonese spelling). My mum also makes mee tang exactly the same as what you showed. Your Hakka wah is the same, but I can’t speak as smoothly or as well as you. I’m born and raised in London.

I like when you speak our langage. I'm hakka moy from Tahiti French Poloynesia, a small island in the Pacific ocean. When i listen you, you speak very well like me, when i speak with my mother, often i speak with french langage because i don't find the words to speak with her. So hard.

never heard of hakka from suriname and this is my first timee, i understand 80% of it since some r still the same but different tone and some of it is hard for me to process buttt this is very interestinggg, thank you for this video ! im hakka from indonesia, specifically in west borneo, 山口洋.

[sikezeng]

Wow your Hakka is very good. Your English and Canto is good also. I speak with the Dongguan Hakka sound as well so this sounds like home for me. Really impressed your can speak so well and also keep up with Canto and English.

[hiworld]

Hello, I am from Malaysia, my ancestor also same village with your mother Dong Gon. Totally understand your Hakka.

[WAIXU]

Just found your videos. You’re very good. My parents sometimes spoke hakka to me when I was a child and understood them but never learned how to speak it. Now I can understand only a bit. I agree Cantonese is easier than hakka. I like your videos and enjoy watching them 😊

[Robgti]

I totally understand your Hakka. Plus my grandma (my mother's mum) was born in Surinam too and she moved back to Hong Kong when she married my grandpa. In fact she can read and write which was a rarity back in those days and she would read out the letters the oversea men folk would sent home to their wives.

Hi Michelle, thanks for this wonderful video! Love it so much!

[云吞小子]
