Anthonny having the British accent is so surprising and expected at the same time being a Filipino. Cause Filipino English accent is very distinct.

Shannon is so sweet and encouraging to them, pronouncing foreign words is so difficult. She gives correction in such a kind way to them.

[novashark]

More Shannon please! She makes it so much less awkward than others on this channel

[Rosyln]

She was so sweet about it, and it made the energy so wholesome instead of possibly embarrassing or awkward for them. It's so difficult to learn a new language they all actually did impressively well (not counting the already native English speaker but I still commend him for being bi or multilingual as that's also impressive.) Please more wholesome content like this!❤

Language is so fascinating. We’re all capable of making the same sounds but our various cultures we grow up around can make it feel like we physically have to struggle with words we’re unfamiliar with.

[katiemorwick]

The way I’m so proud of myself that I can pronounce these words but English is literally my first language

[littlefishiesinthese]

I was so confused for "simultaneously" because as an Aussie, they were saying it pretty spot on and I didn't understand why Shannon was hitting them! Until I realised Americans say it like "SIGH"

[sarahe]

I don't know who she was, but she was so sweet, engaging, and good-natured! She made sure to interact with everyone and had a lot of social charm. She totally made the video.

[bloombloompow]

Im honestly so happy how she handled this because sometimes you'll see these videos and the one with the hammers hit too hard even if its to people they've never met, but she hit them really lightly and encouraged them which is really sweet to see

They’re wild for putting Haruto in with the other members when he has lived in New Jersey LMAO 😭 Like of course bro is gonna speak perfect English

[everinamood]

Haruto is from New Jersey?! I guess this explains why he speaks English so well but knowing this blew my mind

[Kingdom_Of_Dreams]

The reason why the "th" sound is so hard in English is because there are two of them, the "eth" (Ðð) and the "thorn" (Þþ). If you look at words like "cloth" and "clothes", you hear a difference in how the two "th" sounds are pronounced, but schools don't really teach this, so it's up to kids to hear the difference and memorize it! 😂

[moebaczynski]

As a half Japanese and half white
I see this as an absolute win

[TheFandom]

5:12 The way haruto was like ONE MORE TIME PLEASE 😂😂😂😂😂

[jamesheng]

Japanese not having ‘v’ sounds, having a sound that is half way between an ‘r’ and an ‘l’ where you basically smile while saying this sound, the ‘f’ sound being different and the lack of consonant clusters. It’s hard for Japanese people to get the pronunciation. But it doesn’t mean you can’t learn! As someone living in japan, みんなさん頑張って！！英語ができるよ！

[Ratman.Not.Batman]

as a native English speaker I struggled for like 30 seconds trying to remember how to pronounce simultaneously

[LattePunch]

I appreciate that she isn't just laughing at their mess-ups but giving advice.

[Lil-toomuchaboutLinguistics]

This is such an interesting video. As a native speaker studying Etymology, this is fascinating. The difference between the guy who’s from the US and her when they said “Horror” is so funny. I love how she pointed out the difference in region. She was so nice about it too. The way he said it is actually pretty much the way we say it here in California. We pronounce it “Harrer” I’ve noticed that especially in Southern California where I’m from, it’s kinda like a mix between like a southern and northern accent. So basically just mix both their accents, and you get like a little Valley Girl, which is what I have.

Wholesome content ☺️ love the boys and love Shannon

Yuto, Takuto and even Athonny, who speaks English, sound so cute when trying to pronounce the words! They're all babies in my eyes 🥺 Takuto, obviously, since he's just turned 16, but the others are also only around 19, and I'm 31. I really enjoyed this video with all of TOZ together ❤

Now, I need to express my surprise: I already wondered how Haruto spoke English so well, but now he's saying he's from the US? I guess maybe he moved there when he was very young, otherwise all the info I can find online about him is wrong. Everywhere it says he was born in Tokyo, and that he learned English by watching Spongebob (?). I'm curious to know more about how long he lived in each country and his experience with English and Japanese, and with learning Korean and even some Chinese. From what I can tell he speaks Korean really well too!

Thank you for having TOZ for three videos (that I"ve seen) on the channel!
