Foreigner Orders in Hindi, Surprises Indians 

I've come to the conclusion that Xiaoma just loves authentic foods of all sorts. By learning every language on the planet, he is certain to be able to get fed no matter where he finds himself.

What a legend the beer guy is. He gave you the beer and said “you speak Hindi too?” So he was just giving him a beer for no reason? Love it. Love this channel. Love xiaoma

Hindi has like thousands of accents, so we are comfortable with different sounding pronounciation. Kudos to you man, great work. Visit and do this in India, people will love you.

As a tibetan refugee who was born in India and grown up there, thanks for this video ! ❤️ For me, it's one of the most beautiful country, so diverse, colorful, lively and complexe with the best food !

At 7:38, the guy asked, "India jaana hai kyaa?" (You wanna go to India, is it?). And he misunderstood and said "No, never!" I couldn't stop laughing hehehehe. But his Hindi is great!

You have an incredible way of showing us different cultures in such a respectful manner, I love your videos and you are incredible at what you do Xiaoma!

I love how humble Xiao is. Indian food is soooo good.

People always smile when he tries to speak in their language. It’s nice to see.

Your effort and appreciation of our culture just warms my heart Love from India ! ❤🇮🇳

How do you stay so thin eating all this good food!! I am a Cancer patient. I have lymphoma cancer, and just completed 8 rounds of chemo. I am getting radiation treatments now. For Chemo I was hospitalized five days at a time every 21 days. I watch your videos because you make me smile and laugh. Thanks for what you do.

gotta respect the courage he has to put himself out there and really try to immerse. can’t fathom how many off camera interactions he’s had 😂

I don’t know how you keep all of these languages straight! I’d be trying to speak a sentence and end up coming out with words from several different languages! Amazing! 🤗

Indian food is so savory and underrated. Some of the spicier stuff will catch a lot of Americans off-guard, but the Bhut Jolokia pepper has a fabulous flavor.

I laughed when he asked the lady "DO YOU SPEAK HINDI" like he is the native one 🤣

the girl at 4:37 was so cute. she was so happy when you asked to order in Hindi, and even happier when you asked what her favorite was. so wholesome

Im so proud of your xiaoma making people happy, when you learned there language makes me smile 🥺!!

I love your videos. I’m originally a California Native. My first serious boyfriend in high school was Indian. I got schooled in the culture and food from his family. When I speak a little Hindi or Urdu Indians grin from ear to ear! They love when Americans treasure their heritage and love their food.

It's wonderful to see the faces of people light up when you speak their language and hear that you're just deciding to learn and practice. ❤️

The absolute joy that comes from the people hearing their mother tongue never fails to put a smile on my face. It’s the greatest respect someone can give to anyone living far from home.

I am very proud of this guy But at 7:37 shopkeeper asked India jaana hai kya( want to go to India) And he said nai kabhi nahi (never) Then he handle it 😂😂 so cute

I love this! As an Indian this makes me super happy. Just one tip - when talking about the foods, your pronunciation slipped, but it can be confusing so completely understand. E.g.., when you are saying "dhal makhani" you should say it like "muck-ni", don't pronounce the second "a". And same with "lassi", we would say "lussi" not "laasi". Hope this helps :)

It’s super cute how almost everyone gets super happy when he starts speaking their language:)

There is another part of New Jersey known as "Little India" in Metuchen. It has about three miles of Indian food, shops, and just about everything you could want. It's where my love of some authentic Indian food came from when I lived in Jersey

as an indian..I FEEL LIKE OMG LIKE U SPEAK REALLY GOOD HINDI COMPARED TO MOST PEOPLE HERE LIKE WELL DONE MATE. i hope ur hindi speaking journey is been going well

Gotta love how, deep down, this is really just a food channel. Seriously, most of the time he tests his languages, it's by gettin' lunch.

Ok, its official. He knows all the languages.

My wife says you should try Hebrew or Irish Gaelic next.

I love how that guy gave you a beer for speaking Hindi haha. As a Canadian I respect that.

Bro... you putting that effort to learn an indian language just to connect with the people makes our heart warm :')

The smile on people’s faces when you speak their language is soooo fkn heartwarming. Every time I watch your videos I have smile from ear to ear lol good videos brother keep it up

I understood everything you said my dude :D. It's not about learning languages with 100% literacy for me, but just knowing enough to make people smile and indulge a little in their culture. A little interaction helps you recognize how we all have so much more in common than our perceived differences. Great stuff Xiaoma! :D

The grammar is a little off like you said “does they spoke hindi here” But given the fact that you learn a new language every damn hour its super impressive 😭😭😭

I find it very interesting that Speaking in their native tongue makes them smile! They know your putting in effort everywhere you go. And the women all hit on you and smile. Lol

Hindi is a complex language and most people in India take years to understand the rules. He's definitely trying very hard and I am so happy to see him speak Hindi. Seekhte rahiye. All the best 🤗🤗🙌

It's amazing how almost everyone immediately smiles at him when he speaks their language... it takes so little to give a little happiness to others who aren''t just like you

I love language learning. I taught myself Japanese and have had literally no one get upset when I speak it to them, but ever since I started learning Korean... there has been a lot of hate directed at me for it... I don't understand why. I live in Koreatown, Los Angeles, so there's a high Korean population and I feel like it's a 50/50 split of people who think it's great that I'm learning it and people who think it's like... they act like it's cringe or something. I'm not being a koreaboo, I just love languages...

Was that dude just wiping his face and nose right before he served you and made that food by hand? ….. I mean even without covid I would hesitate eating that bro XD

Omg his Hindi actually makes sense now! It's improved drastically!!

8:22 who else was like what’s this dude doing coming up so fast 😂 thought someone was about to hit a lick

5:28 Why Is This Standing Like This?😂

Yes that was really fun! Love to see people smile after being a little guarded. The men seem to be macho then soften up once they see you trying. I'm definitely missing out on all the great foods on the East coast.

6:22 watch for the drop that lands in his food lmao

5:50 That man's face had me cracking up 😂😂😂

I know he's learning with a conversation game plan and learns what he expects to need in the wild, but his ability to sound authentic enough that people consistently don't think he's American is wild.

What strikes me is how you can carry on an interchange of conversation. Speaking is one thing while understanding what was said to you is another. Good job.

It always surprises me that Indian food isn't more popular in the USA. Here in the UK, we absolutely love it.

Love that you're filming some vids here in Jersey. We have so many different cultures' cuisines it's unbelievable.

Love the video, Xiaoma!! you are an inspiration to language lovers EVERYWHERE!!!

Been watching your videos back to back with a smile plastered on my face. I love the interactions you have with these different cultures. It's amazing to see you breaking that barrier and seeing people open up. Keep doing what you're doing!

7:38 - when the man says India Jana hai kya . he replied Kabhi Nahi that was awesome🤣🤣

Ive been trying to learn a language for 4 years and still know maybe 10 words 😂😂 you’re so cool knowing so many different languages 💜 keep up the good work

You are an amazing person. I have a difficult time just trying to master English but you are fluent in so many languages and I love watching you interact with the people who speak those languages. Bravo on your latest challenge and I'm with you... I love Indian food too!

WOW...he wiped his nose, multiple times, touched and contaminated food and you ate it! I love your way of integrating into cultures, and speaking so many languages. The beginning of this video and the snotty nose was GROSS.

He's flexing big time the extent of vocabulary he's learned in just a month. Indians don't even speak that pure Hindi as him

This is so cool. I'm like this guy, I absolutely love indian food! This has inspired me to start learning hindi.

I am born in Canada and I can understand hindi since it's my parents language. You speak hindi pretty good which is impressive but your accent is just ok but it's ok as long as they can understand you that is all that matters.

You are great at what you do. I appreciate your tactful humility when interacting with people of other cultures. You’re a fun combination of educator and entertainer. Bravo

Wait a minute. The first Indian was outside his shop wiping his nose, doing something with the trash I gather. He comes through the door, doesn't wash his hands and is without gloves, handling Xiaoma's food. I was waiting for him to wash his hands or even put on a plastic glove. No wonder COVID is rampant. ON the flip side, even Xiaoma is handling/eating his food without washing his hands, after touching the door. lol Reminds me of the old days when we ate at MacDonalds. WE dont do that anymore, to pay for our food then eat our fries with our unwashed fingers. We have come a long way in three years post COVID.

“Dooooobey” LOL Your love for different cultures is inspiring to see man.

Love this and love your channel Xiaoma… I am a Bengali from Kolkata living in San Francisco… I would love for you to learn Bengali next… much love ❤️

4:10 Oh god, that poor girl. Camera, why did you have to do that? XD

You know you’ve made it when people give you free beer!

I love so many things about India. Great job with Hindi, Xiao! You are always so brave to get right in there and speak it with native speakers. How about Bengali? Feel like learning that one? I love the sound of Bengali for some reason.

Great! I myself teach Hindi through English and I must say that's a good way to practice speaking with people around. Keep it up!! 😊

I'm South Indian and you know far more Hindi than I might ever know currently and in the future

I love how everybody in his videos smiles when he speak their languages

Its amazing you can even speak this much. I'm also an Indian in NJ! One big tip for speaking proper Hindi is learning to conjugate words differently based on context. "Kya yaha chai milta hai" is close enough to understand, but it sounds awkward to native speakers. Chai is considered a feminine noun, along with many others. "Milta" or any similar word ending with aa sound is usually (not always) masculine. Instead you should say "Kya yaha chai MILTI hai?".

4:22 Chai! In Ukraine we also call it exact the same way tea

Hindi is hard for other countries but man you're something else man, very talented dude

It is absolutely incredible the barriers you break down by being able to speak to people in their own language and they clearly know you are not from their country.

No way man! I was just thinking of you today. I myself am a polyglot too, I speak 7 languages but I plan to learn some more and I am on my way to succeed. I speak English, Russian, German, Polish, Spanish, Serbian (my native) and Hungarian. I use internet a lot for all sorts of things I am curious about. The last language I used it for is Hungarian which is like the 4th hardest one in the world. One of my goals are Japanese and Chinese. I am studying to become a translator one day and I will tell you another reason why I thought of you today. There are a lot of Hungarians in my country and in my city because we are their neighbors and today I spoke to a few, I was on an open air market and I reminded myself of you talking to all those sales people in New York chinatown. They were thrilled :) Keep up the great work my friend, you are goals!

At 7:37 the guy said, "India jana hai kya?" which means "Do you want to go to India?" Just thought of clarifying :D

Your love of food and diverse languages is infectious man. Really enjoying your channel and the respect you show other cultures!

Coool...so sweet stuffs. As a hindi speaking person living in US, I can understand not everyone among Indians understand or speak Hindi here and you spoke better than many...The fact that you thought of this experiment is such a lovely thing...thanks

"I love Indian restaurants." You love EVERY restaurant! And I love the way you try food from every culture. THAT is really cool!

Don't worry bro they weren't actually laughing at your hindi but they were actually surprised to find an american guy speaking hindi so fluently , they are actually really far away from their country so it was really a moment of happiness for them to find an own countrymen

Hi Xiaoma! Have you ever thought about learning a scandinavian language? I'm swedish, and it would be interesting to hear you speak. Since you have such a talent. Have a nice day and love the chanel👍

The more languages you learn, the easier it becomes learning another language. Hindi, is Indo European language and has a lot of grammatical similarities of languages of Europe especially Romance languages. If you know Spanish it's easier to construct sentences in Hindi, (considering you've had enough vocabulary) cause both have similar syntax.

Literally kudos to you for being able to speak up and putting yourself out there. I’m literally fluent in Spanish but still get shy to speak it infront of other people outside my family 😭

I have been introduced to Indian culture through various colleagues who have become my dearest friends. It really is a beautiful culture.. the hospitality, the colors, the food, the kindness.. and I love learning all of the stories behind their holidays such as Diwali and Holi.

I sure hope that first guy washed his hands first 😬

love these videos! also love express vpn!

You should make a tier list of how difficult different languages were to learn for you

The 'free beer' got me! 😂 Back here in India, we can't even a lime for free! 🤣

This guy has a gift. It's learning difficult languages quickly. I've never seen anyone like him.

5:12 - this guy didn’t know u were speaking hindi, so it was probably the girl at the counter that gave u the free beer for speaking it. should have thanked her and got her number or insta 😅

😂😂 Loved it

I love to see you enjoy life and experience culture through food. How about learning Swedish or Finnish next? :)

If you've actually learnt all of this hindi online, its simply amazing.

absoultely love this for you! glad to see u appreciate Indian culture :)

Impressive, your love of all cultures is addictive!

Great job brother !!! You should learn my language next! It’s Hmong! And try out food too! It will be an amazing experience!

i aspire to have this amount of confidence with language

These videos always make me smile , I admire your determination to conquer the world of languages . RESPECT!!!

Indian People are awesome. Their sense of humor is outrageous.

Hi Xiaoma, would you write in the description the names of each of the restaurants/delis you visited please?

Your Hindi isn't amazing but you've only been learning for a month so I'm impressed by how well you can speak it!

6:38 piche toh dekhooooooo

Thanks for the respect to our Indian Culture man !! I could’t give you a beer so I subbed you

I'd literally shit myself before talking with a native speaker a language I'm just starting to learn, you have some real balls man. You're admirable.
