yeah usually the people i meet that yell loudly on public transportation speak hokkien, most of them are elderly people. Younger generations that speak mandarin tend to speak as quiet as possible.
They still do? maybe because Taiwanese still treat elders with more respect. I was once scolded, albeit very politely, for speaking too loud on the MRT in Kaoshiug of all places and that was a long time ago.
Duuude. I feel this sooo much. Especially, when it involves say they need to connect to wifi for my fam... My aunt be screeching on the phone holding it like she's on speaker lmao. Oh! And when they want to record Paris By Night... I grew up to half hate Paris By Night becuz of the scuffed convos lolool
I was once went study aboard in China, I went into bakery and order some of the bun I want to eat. I want to buy like... a portion of it, but my voice was too soft and they misheard it and gave me full box of it. So I asked my Chinese teacher about Chinese ppl actually speak loudly because of the accuracy of pronunciation? She said "Yes" lolol
ahem, as a canto, i can confirm that we are generally like that...i grew up in the west so i'm not so much like that but yeah, when i'm back home, oh boy
As a Chinese person from a Chinese majority country, I actually feel this. Also, I feel this is mostly towards "native Chinese" for lack of a better term. Those from the motherland. But ofc, it doesn't mean all of them are like this.
So relatable, I'm quite a loudmouth myself if I forget to hold myself back but my parents are so much worse, imagine having to stand their loud voice in a cramped family car. Practically shouting at each other ffs
I feel like what Enna said is true, but because I technically live in Singapore where the only time the audio levels are super low is night time, im really used to loud noises that i dont get bothered by it unless they are extra loud.
I wish that i was on that stream tho ,since im chinese but not from China. Those person Enna was describing is definitely CHINA CHINESE people since they talk with loud voice.I met them before,holishit , they talking is bassically shouting
This is just a way of life at this point, and it’s not just over the phone. The second your relatives enter the house it’s like a torrent of noise. If you have a huge family like that the best thing you can buy yourself is a pair of noise cancelling headphones. Trust me best purchase ever.
My mother speaks Cantonese, Mandarin but also Hakka ( another type of Chinese language ) but mostly Hakka and then when she's calling with someone i can litterly hear her yelling from another room- But then she's just saying like "how are you doing?" Or smt calm 🥲
i am so so sorry ;;;w;;;) i grew up and know we talk loud and I get used to it so much that I end up talking loud like that if anyone talks with me in mandarin :'
chinese is just a combative language haha, like if you wanna fight and curse at someone, that's the language to use. but out of all the dialects I feel like canto and taiwanese are top tier for shouting at people
We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I A full commitment's what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy I just want to tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
