Polyglot Reacts to Michelle Yeoh Oscar Speech 🚀🔥 | How Good is her English? 

Her English is great. Yes, she has an accent, but more importantly her choice of words were very on point.

马来西亚学的是英式英语，但接触的娱乐媒体是美剧居多，所以口音会混合，在一些地区甚至和其他语言混合。这就是我们的口音，没有对错，就像你也不会说澳洲人的口音是错的。中文呢则是见人说人话，见到中国人就模仿中国人口音，见到台湾人就台湾口音，在大马就是自家口音

Her English is definitely excellent. The accent doesn't matter at all as long as the messages she is trying to convey are clear and understandable. Malaysia english is based on British standards. Commonly, Malaysians have no trouble of communicating in english at all. She was educated in UK back in then and that's why she speaks English fluently and proficiently.

Her accent makes her special and that’s what we like about her.

对于我们马来西亚人来说，口音这件事好像就是这么回事，虽然我们学校里学的都是英音英语，可是也可以受到周遭环境的影响，有的时候说的也不是那么标准的英音…… 就像说华语也是如此，马来西亚大多数华人都说一口马来西亚腔的华语，可是，我们看台湾节目多了，说话时，偶尔也可能不经意蹦出一两个台湾腔的词汇，看中国节目多的人，偶尔也会蹦出比较中国口音的句子，这都是有的。 没什么，这就是马来西亚的特色…… 😅😅 我们的语言比较rojak……

她证明了马来西亚式英语能登峰造极， 赢奥影奖， 全马国人都以她为荣， 你们无话可说吧😂

"As a Malaysian she can speak Cantonese, Mandarin and English" You forgot another one. Our national language, Malay.

As an Asean members, we have our own way to learn English, being proud and confident with our accents, regardless of nationality, race and background. Just like Android phone's Google Voice Assistant setting, we can now change the English Accent to India, Philippines, Singapore and we really hope that Google can add in Malaysian English Accent soon. C'mon, we have about 655 milion people in Asean region, twice as much as US population. We're multiracial and diverse multicultural, but yet we still can achieve harmony society, in which is hardly seen in US. Anyway, language is just a communication tool, as long as others can get what you say & mean will do. Peace ❤

字幕有一处错误噢："The Daniels" refer to Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, the two directors of the movie. 不是丹尼尔夫妇 XD

Her family speaks English. Her first language is English despite the fact that the extended family is bilingual. This qualifies her as a native English speaker.Her father was a UK educated lawyer in Malaysia. She would have being educated in English in primary and in secondary schools. She was also sent to UK in her late teens. Malaysian native English speaking persons have variety of accents. Hers is not really unique and probably hers is slighlty more UK accented than the average native English speaking Malaysians. There are about 1 million Malaysian who speaks Emglish as their first language. About another 5 million fluent second language speakers . Her accent is as valid as one with Australian or Irish Accent.

She basically is a native speaker. Just because she is Asian from Asia, then people would assume she can’t speak decent English. So weird

This is the Malaysia and Singapore types of English that makes us so special.

Her golden globe acceptance speech is also brilliant 🎉

Michelle Yeoh was born in Malaysia, but she studied ballet in England starting at the age of 15. As a result, she has a good British accent. To be honest, some white people have underestimated us and other minorities. Just because they can speak a bit of Chinese, they think they are fluent. In my opinion, it's important for people of all backgrounds to approach other cultures with humility, respect, and a willingness to learn. While it's natural to have preconceived notions or limited knowledge about a particular culture, it's important to recognize that stereotypes and generalizations can be harmful and inaccurate.

Michelle, I’m so proud of you ❤

主播中文太好了，几乎听不出来老外的口音，语言学的这么好也是聪明人👍

我其实更加敬佩你。 多数教英语的老外--真的不会讲语法，但是你是one-in-a-million的能够讲语法的老外！点赞！！！你的课时费必须要比那些只会教普通口语的老外多！you deserve it!!! 最让我吃惊的是---你居然能用中文说‘虚拟语气’（subjunctive mood). 很多老外连英语的subjunctive mood这个词都不懂。 佩服！！！！！

希望马老师可以开一课专门教导标准发音的,尤其是stress and intonation 的。据我所知，99.9%的人学英语不知道其实字典有phonetic symbol 而且也有对stress and intonation 有做标记的。就是说大多数人查字典的时候，只管看字的意思，并不注重发音。。学校的老师也不会去教，原因是这些连老师也不懂。

Your videos are always such an inspiration for me to learn more Chinese! I've been learning for almost 7 years now, and I can't wait until I can speak more fluently!

She is very wise and she is our role model. She's embodiment of our Asian culture who believes that hard work will pay off one. So never give up on your dreams.

马来西亚人的中文也这样，到内地留学我也学了一口标准普通话，但是呢，跟台湾人聊久了口音也会被带跑，因为小时候接触很多台湾娱乐文化，这口音对我们也不陌生，遇到马来西亚人就基本恢复原状了。英语的话，每个地方都有口音，有些时候别人硬拗口音，真的会更怪，除非你到那个环境长住交流，才有必要改口音。

Most Malaysian can comfortably straddle, 2 to 3 even four different cultures and thrive and come out smelling like roses, in this case, smelling out an Oscar for best actress.

How great! she does speak decent English!

She said 'would be here' not 'will be here', you listened wrongly ! Also, she spoke correct verbs, nouns etc that many native american can't even speak correctly, everyone thot that american english is always right, which is not ! just fyi.

語言純粹是用來溝通，不同區域自然產生不同的口音，這本來就是很正常的，作為亞洲人，我認為她大可不必模仿美國或英國人的怪腔怪調，反而顯得做作，保留她獨有的口音特色，反而更能贏得美國觀眾的喜愛和支持。

你错了 英语是她的母语 她最早不会说普通话和粤语 后来学的 。只是她的英语和英式美式不太一样 不好分为哪种 但表达很好很高级

She is a native speaker. Of course good.

Her pronunciation of 'superheroes' was correct, that's standard Strait English which is spoken by as many as 50 -80 million people.

马斯瑞你好，希望你做一集来评估 亚洲国家领袖们在 2023博鳌论坛的英文发音

She is definitely a native with full marks in English speaking,teacher Ma would not be the person qualified to criticise her.

她的英文口音好重呢，也很用力

7:28 Hence why my accent is 90% British. I only Americanize my accent for emphasis. My Chinese, even when I'm at work is mostly Mandarin in terms of pronunciation, but my choice of words and some grammar is more like Taiwanese.

1 for the movie. Michelle Yeoh is so awesome!!!

我只能说这个视频牵强，说服不了我，无恶意就事论事🙏

语言使用在现场交流反应，肯定是不完美。 除非是写作，可以不断修改。

She's totally at her prime now. Proof? Duh... Someone even did a language review of her Oscar speech lol

有很多人不喜歡這部電影嗎？？我所知道的人裡頭幾乎都是一片好評耶！

I don't think it's necessary to judge her accent here based on American and British English standards. For people who have lived and studied in multiple countries, it is natural to incorporate different accents and vocabulary into their speech. Not to mention, there are many other forms of English. Michelle is a native-level English speaker. If we judge by the standards you just presented, then native English speakers from the US would get lower marks than her.

想看关继威的分析

其实她就是把马来西亚的口音多元化展示给大家，我们听惯了各种口音在一个句子，这是很正常的。但是你们外国人会比较单一口音，所以会比较介意。

你的中文发音也很好

It’s ridiculous to compare her English level . In fact her English actually better than a lots so called English speakers.

講到「醬子」的時候我笑😂 台灣口音的部分哈哈哈哈 但是台灣人跟大陸人玩久了就會有口音混在一起的問題，其實蠻好玩的😂🤣

哇晒 你的中文发音好准啊😂比我英文说得好

马老师我计划今年每晚听五到六个小时英语播客坚持一年您说有没可能听得懂

1,it’s a very amazing movie, and if you couldn’t understand about it maybe it means you are very lucky. It is not a bad thing.

想聽一下評論菲律賓的英文，尤其是那些沒有西方留學純菲律賓本土的人講的英文。 原因是他們是英文國家，近幾年也流行去那裡學習英文，但就我個人的感覺，不只是口音問題而已，他們的文法似乎和母語英文者也很不同。而我的一個南非朋友到菲律賓找我的第一句話也是說菲律賓人講的英文不是英文。所以我很好奇，在馬思瑞專業的英文教學者來說會是如何看待的？

I am a Asian, but I protest the award based on races!

Hi....您的华语好棒棒，来自马来西亚的小神仙。。。。🙊

3:14 Her current partner, Jean Todt, is French, was the President of FIA, Ferrari F1 team who hired Ross Braun and Michael Schumacher. Jean is the current United Nations Special Envoy for Road Safety.

She can speak Malay too

Could you pls analyze Faye Wong's English? 謝謝

Habla muy buen inglés, imho. Saludos!

3:44 there's a mistranslation here. The 'Daniels' that she mentioned was the directors, Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan. It's not 夫妇🤣😂

We are from the same hometown, Ipoh, Malaysia

Her Chinglish accent is so thick

囗音很重要吗？我觉的听的懂就好了！听不懂才一糟糕！

11111111超好看

好棒

i personally like the movie

老马，哪里有置顶评论？😂

有空找看有没有 尼古拉.特斯拉大哥的英语水平怎么样 好期待

She speaks malay too, even Indonesian language, which i am not surprised.😊not only that most Malaysian speak a lot china dialects. Which you will never be able too.😂😂😂😂😂😂

Your pronunciation of 'Kuala' is not correct, it's 'kua-la' not 'ku-a-la'

Her accent is a mix of Singlish and Hong Kongish

頭香😂

馬來西亞人的中文英文都是很不錯的，不用去評論。

什麼時候才能做 👉 王菲 🙄

Well... she speaks at least 4 languages (i) English; (ii) Mandrin; (iii) Cantonese; (iv) Bahasa Melayu for a Malaysian. She now resides in France, it would not be a surprise to be able to speak French and other languages commonly spoken in Europe.

是别人帮他写的感谢词吗？念时有提词机器在前方吧？

有些澳大利亚🇦🇺人也是英音美音参杂。看看你是不是东海岸还是西海岸或者东南部的澳大利亚人。

She is HK's style...

Malaysian chinese normally can speaks Malay, English, Mandarin , cantonese , hokkien, teo chew , hakka..... could anyone possible to find another unique race in this world ? I'm very doubt about it .

Actually there is a word order mistake: “Don’t let anyone tell you you are ever 😮past your prime.” It should be, “Don’t let anyone ever tell you you are past your prime.”

ha, She graduated with a law degree from UK in the 80s.

不是丹尼尔夫妇，是丹尼尔导演组合😅😅

🥰

5:50 以前留学自我介绍说Kuala Lumpur 都是有马来口音，外国人会听不懂，改成美式口音，大家才恍然大悟。。绝大部分的马来西亚人说KUALA LUMPUR 都是马来语的发音。🤣

dont ever let others correct your accent, so long the grammar is correct.

英音美音参杂你是说加拿大🇨🇦人吗？？

Malaysian Chinese know a lot of languages, Malay,english,mandarin,cantonese,hokkien etc. Quite common bro

I read somewhere she had studied in the UK in her teens.

你的中文我給你A++

想听点评高晓松的英文。

這樣的分析挺無聊的，像是雞蛋裡挑骨頭。語文就是一個溝通的工具

当你说：参杂英美口音会让人觉得奇怪, 有违和感这件事 让我觉得很压力。。。当一个non English speaker 需要学英语grammar，背单词还要记futur, past, present tense的，现在还要记口音。。。。崩溃 我们来自一个这么多元化的世界，我可能很喜欢Taylor Swift我常常看他的interview影片，但同时我也很喜欢Adele的 可能这样子我就会学到不一样的口音了。。那我怎么办 现在我还要担心发出的口音accent还有违和感。。。 说真的说英语的时候别人听明白就好了 不需要注意口音的

She speaks with a typical Malaysian accent who has spent long time overseas …. Who uses English as first language ….

楊紫瓊說的英語有特色，我反而喜歡，並不是要標準的純脆美語或英語發音才是美，有點不同的腔調的也是美。 民國著名的散文大師陳之藩寫過一個故事，有位美國籍的中國人在美國出生長大的，因此能說非常標準流利的英語，但他卻對美國人說著一口破英語。有一次他一個不小心說出流利無比的英語，美國人大驚，問他明明能說標準流利的英語，為何要裝成中國人故意說起破英語呢？ 他很痛苦地回答，我曾剪過辮子，穿起西裝，說流利的英語，但我依然不能跟你們混合，你們拿另一種眼光看我，我覺得很痛苦。

Her dad was a lawyer

她是馬來西亞福建人，在家裡講福建話（閩南語）

亚裔？全称马来西亚亚裔吗？你中文这点要扣分。不要把所有地区的人都代入美国的族裔！移民到中国以外的人叫某国华裔，移民到亚洲以外的亚洲人才能叫亚裔。

👏🧚‍♀️☝️🙌

Mate don't struggle with her accent coz we Aussie don't like American accent as well

It might sound weird for you but it's definitely normal for a Malaysian to speak in mix accents. This is our specialty and I find it offensive to tell anyone to change their own accents. Anyways you do you I still don't like it when you are being narrow minded w accents

丹丹導演不是夫夫啦！😅

Bro, ur Mandrin is better than me.

其实我来这个频道学中文发音

马来西亚的官方语言不就是英语？杨紫琼英语说的溜不很正常吗？

那叫影后吧

颁奖的居然是劳模姐
