Bless His Heart! Ray Du tries to speak Southern Slang 

Check out Ray's video on his channel: 連母語者都有可能聽不懂? 阿滴挑戰美國「南方口音」! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-St4xOgj5c_Q.html

awesome video!!! nice to see xiaofei behind a desk in an office!!! haha

好風趣

學到超多道地用法 XDD

Fried okra is the best!!!

fix感覺很像台灣的「弄」。我去弄一下午餐、我去弄杯飲料...

猜（下雨天）：cat & dog everwere

I think the way you say decide the meaning of saying. Such as, GET out of here (means "no shit"), get OUT of here (means "Leave!").

什麼時候還可以帶阿滴去瀑布？

Howdy! I just love the Southern accent and the phrases the people use in the South. If you like languages and history of the development of languages you’ll just be amazed how many cool things are preserved in Southern accent, but long lost in other versions of English (like moonlight magnolia drawl). And BTY, the folks in the South are the friendliest people in all the US 😀

哇

有趣的對談，非常棒的合作，小飛的英文根本是神級！ 鼓勵並支持小飛多作英文教學影片，一定會每集必看！ I am fixing to watch the next video. Thank you so much.👍😄

👍👍👍🤭🤭🤭。。。

小飛身上那件有賣嗎？

I think the reason Southerners are so good at sarcasm is because of its early British influence. It's kind of their culture and they brought it with them to the States. Also does Southerners has good manners and hospitable because I see this depicted in some movies or TV shows.

以前實習的時候，資深姐姐會酸我們「妹妹你真的很～可～愛～耶～」也是同樣的用法😂

Fried okra the best!!! 炸秋葵塞勾！

這集影片真的好有趣！

真的很有趣 我覺得這個話題可以拍續集 Bless your heart ( I mean it)

Bless your heart~ 美國南方真是一群神奇的國度(X

好喜歡看阿滴跟其他人學各種腔調唷!也讓人更感覺語言就是這樣一個溝通而非制式的科目，你不會在學中文的時候強調，你講的是台灣國語，還是北京腔，還是普通話。所謂的標準只存在於生活的環境裡，一但對象改變就不存在。

I like your English teaching video. It gives me more understanding about different English culture. Looking forwards to more video like this

什麼是阿滴！！也是第一次聽南方用語！好特別，原來小飛都體貼我們聽不懂！

好難得看到小飛不在山上跟水裡

應該把阿滴拉到野外去.

I asked some students from the South American, and they told me that “reckon” is usually used by the old generation, like their grandparents🥸, but the young also use it as well~ and they were very surprised that I knew the usage🤣 thank you, 小飛

Fantastic! You showed up on Ray Du's channel. In this video, you stayed indoors; it's a rare video. I like it.

Breakfast is break the fast, the meal after the fast. So in UK, the meal after the wedding is also called breakfast.

Thanks for the conversation. It's always interesting to share cultures and especially the little nuances of language!

I definitely agree with the usage of "fix"!! "Imma fix my breakfast real quick." or like "imma fix my hair in a sec." And yes, we say "supper" instead of using the word"dinner". Another funny thing that I noticed was people tend to pronounce "Sunday" like "sundee" lol.

So interesting and educational!

Also NC native! Watching this made me homesick!

很用心！很可愛的影片

I think somewhere in England also use dinner to mean lunch, am I right? So probably this is not so uncommon. I learnt this from the Ladybird reader Peter and Jane.

I live in South Carolina! Lol love this video!!! I had trouble understanding my coworkers when I first moved here and then they started teaching me all the southern slangs lollll

hey this video is hotter than 2 hamsters screwing in a wool sock i reckon that you should make more videos like this subscribtion for xiaofei+1

Good, I can go to GA.

小飛今天帶阿滴跳母語瀑布，漂亮！

小飛太可愛了

學到很多~^^~特別愛bless your heart~學起來了~想再看小飛再多提供點不同的句子~

I reckon 阿滴’s southern accent is just shy of 小飛’s. Got it!

以前在Nebraska當交換生的時候 他們也是用Supper當晚餐的意思 現在聽起來有種懷念的感覺

炸秋葵~台灣有喔~我在高雄一些鹹酥雞攤有看過

I think we would all love it if you use some southern slang in your future videos 😆

Fix好好用啊 南方口音好像唱歌 有人約 lunch time 會不會遇不上啊🤣

Are you from N. Carolina Xiaofei? I used to go down to Raleigh for work. People are so friendly down there. But being an Asian, I totally stood out in malls or anywhere. LOL. My friend to me to this little shack where they serves traditional southern food. My first experience with collard greens and hush puppies. Also attended some sort of fair and heard Bluegrass music live for the first time, and saw the giant turkey legs on the barbeque. Such unique culture and place. LOVE IT!

語言的世界真是博大精深～😁

小飛, 很帥~~

Cattywampus? I don't reckon I will use this word. Bless your heart here, I am fixing to have my supper alone, through the cat corner!

台灣人也很愛炸的啊~炸鮮奶~

小飛穿的是新設計的衣服嗎！ 好好看 希望以後買得到

2:32新加坡腔跑出來了

17年前左右的＜大家說英語 Let's talk in English＞雜誌曾在對話中使用的"晚餐"這詞就是用Supper !!

阿滴沒聽過正餐（午餐）是 dinner ,晚餐是 supper（不是很正式的晚餐） 的講法嗎？這個以前其實學校非正式的教學有補充過。

"Are't you adorable" 讓我想到某人常說的一句話"お可愛いこと"。

Bless your heart

Oh this is fun! Some of the words that you taught us are the same as those that they used to (or still do to this day) use in British English! I reckon it makes sense, though, seein’ how an older version of British English is actually better preserved in some areas of the States thanks to the early colonists? Also, supper and dinner both came from French! They used to call those “souper” and “dîner” respectively in France😃😃😃 Languages and dialects are FUN!🤩🤓🤓🤓

Also, southern ppl LOVE sarcasm. They just LOVE IT.

學好多😆最好笑的是阿滴跟小飛在表演拉鋸子的畫面，讓我馬上聯想到迪士尼卡通畫面，然後才了解卡通是真實的！

小飛 有吃過 油炸茄子(eggplant)嗎 台灣有些鹽酥雞店會賣 油炸的綜合蔬菜 裹著日式天婦羅的麵衣炸 還滿好吃的 也許可以建議他們增加秋葵

So cool 😎

最後結尾超級好笑🤣 Ps: 小飛你這件衣服很好看 哪裡可以買到呢？

「我真係恭喜哂你」

想學道地南方人的諺語與行話，喜歡這類的影片，很有趣 😆

哇！美國的南部人說話好誇張！但非常有趣！ 小飛放的影片也好幽默！ 喜歡今天的內容！

喜歡。很有趣。

哇 連阿滴都來了！下次帶他跟他妹妹爬山涉水啦！

Love this ❤️

By the way, I honestly don’t think the majority of the Taiwanese people are terribly good at sarcasm... 🤨🧐😆 (the use of which in the American South also reminds me of the British!😝)

5:05 Used a lot in sports in general,. "He's half-a-yard shy of midfield" (In American Football). "He's probably just half a lap shy of making it to the finish" (talking about amount of fuel in the tank, NASCAR, Formula1， IndyCar, etc.).

怎麼沒有帶阿滴去找瀑布lol。

4:09 Country people in general say it. Rural Australians say it, New Zealanders use it casually anyway.

I remember Bill Burr (Bostonian) also said that his parents use the term “supper” to refer to their dinner

北卡...還好耶！不算太南方。 密西西比、路易斯安那....那個比較像是印象中南方佬....

It's really funny seeing how many of these are considered Southern slang when they're also used in England lol. I think there was maybe an handful that weren't and that I had to try n work out the meaning. Was an interesting and well explained video! And Xiaofei, if it makes you feel any better, my English side of the fam are Cockney's, (I ain't, as I wasn't born within the sound of Bow's bells, although I am a Londoner) so I often don't know if a saying/meaning of something is an England/UK thing or just a Cockney thing. I found out recently that it is not common interchange "oh (the) poor thing" with "poor cow/sod". Like for me n my fam and the area we lived, it genuinely wasn't insulting to say that. So i was talking to a friend who lived in Leeds, and was talking about how something had gone wrong for my sis and I felt bad for her, so I said "yeah this and this happened, poor cow, sucks so much for her!" and my friend freaked lmao.

I saw a saw saw a saw in a wool sock，，，

這集很有趣喔~

很多南方口音很難聽懂，常常都笑笑而過。黑人口音也分很多種。我經常都問一二次，後面就不敢問了，怕得罪人。😂 很多時候一整句只聽得懂：「yaw kno wat i am sayin?」or “Yall kno wat mean?”

真的是各種高級酸耶🤣 哈哈哈哈哈

Come on,We do have fried okra in Taiwan.my mom always cooks this dish🤗

7:18 Ah, I sometimes thought they say it to someone who is no longer with us (in heaven).

Hello 小飛，原來你是那三牛的同鄉！！

這集真的很好笑~ 很開心可以學到高級酸的講法👍🏼

好有趣

我看過台灣素食自助餐有炸秋葵喔！

Bless your heart~

Some of the words I recognized were used in MidWest too, the usage of “supper” is definitely one of the most common, “fix” is another really popular word too. This vid reminds me the life back in States stayin’ with my host family❤️ Oh btw we used to say “see ya later alligator” I think it’s one of the Southern style of slang?

按照美國疫情程度 要去至少等3年才能去 免了

Bless your heart😁

太有趣了吧！除了句子本身真的學到很多當地文化

真的以為開頭會鏡頭一跳，就進水池了

I heard North Carolina for the first time was from Jordan.

小飛能文能武呢！ ❤️

今天忽然發現鬍子留起來的小飛神韻和 Nacho 有點像呢

衣服上畫的是小飛的得利卡嗎？好可愛噢！這件能不能買得到？

小飛 你台灣黑熊那件藍色短袖上衣哪裡可以買呀???

Try to explain that to AOC bubba!

❤️❤️❤️

More natural than him

😸😸😸
