So this past week I went to GhanaFest 2022 in Chicago, which is probably the closest you can come to being in Africa in America. With a massive market full of African goods, traditional tribal dances, and incredible food from Ghana and West Africa, I made a lot of new friends here when I spoke the Twi language. #ghana #ghanafest #twi

Here too 🙋♀️🤣
Imagine he would be white. Would have been called a racist
It's true, here in the Netherlands it's not just Chinese restaurants but even Dutch fa(s)t food bars selling fries and frikandel speciaal are often Chinese staff
The chinese dude in the end killed me, "lets meet up in Africa" 😂

😂😂😂such a wholesome interaction
Something about the Chinese guy wearing an "I love Ghana" shirt makes my heart warm up. I always love when cultures embrace other cultures.
Probably because his company made a crap load of money doing real estate development there...sorry to be that guy but I'm probably not wrong.
He was funny too "Did you get used to the food?" "There's chinese restaurants everywhere!"

My friend, you are the embodiment of Nelson Mandela's quote. "If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart." Truly enjoy your videos. Thank you for showing us how to bridge the gap/barriers between people and their cultures.
Great comment

Do you use a go pro for filming?
Very well said
That is so on point. You just see people change right away when you speak their language. They smile, they laugh, they let their hair down. It's so amazing to watch.
the aunties just giving him food and water like boy put your wallet away even tho he’s trying to pay made me smile so much.
Yes! They were so happy because he made an effort to learn the language that the money he wanted to pay was too beneath their joy! Beautiful! 😊😊😊
I love that! And that's how the culture is, too. Very welcoming, loves to make and give you food, great hospitality, friendly, etc.
That made me smile so hard when they did that.
Good Aunties being Aunties. I wish I had aunties like those, mine all sucked and robbed my grandparents...
@@jody024 damn that's terrible. I'm sorry that happened :/
I love how he even *laughs in Chinese* He has an amazing gift and is sharing that gift with others to make the world a better place. A truly good man.
He laughed in Ghanan earlier as well, more high pitched.
what a gorgeous, generous, warm group of people. I want to learn twi and go to ghanafest!
Ghanaians are gorgeous people, go to any festivals you can find, you will be welcome
@@mikontisottI found African traditional garb amazingly bright and colorful.
Same! They were all so lovely and that food made me hungry through my screen - I swear I could smell it from here ❤
Ghanaians are the most peaceful welcoming Africans. They truly are a beautiful people
Ghanaians are so sweet its insane
my social anxiety could never. he does such a good job talking to random strangers and actually keeping the convo going without it being awkward loll
Same
For real! Forget the language, just being able to strike up a conversation with a stranger and keeping it going...man, I admire him lol
it's just the practice, social abilities are things you just gotta improve by doing it and doing it, i'm sure he went through adkward situations by learning it
@@ketokeko I have Aspergers so that can take longer to learn for me

I love how the aunties literally started feeding him lol!

@@relaxingandsoothing7353 lmao! I notice. I'm Jamaican and we've definitely adopted some of that here. I live in the city, and whenever I visit family back home they make sure I'm well fed.
Yes it was really sweet
Food is also a love language!
I love the aunties not taking his money and giving him some of their food while also side bantering the young kids like "Yea he speak better than you and better than me!" It just warms my heart! 😊
😂😂😂
“My husbands from Ghana you should impress him” I LOVE her. 😂 he indeed was impressed.
I keep thinking that he just memorized 50 or so phrases, but he’s understanding and responding to things that you could never expect. You can tell he has spent a good amount of time learning it
Yeah definitely. When you see aunties ask him random questions like about whether or not he has a girlfriend and he responds with he looking for a wife you can tell he has a grasp of the language.
Usually I hate those fake polyglots videos who know phrases. But he literally speak total fluent Mandarin, some Cantonese (well enough) and makes the effort to know and understand some less known languages. He does have the brain for it
Yeah, it’s so cool!
Maybe not a good big amount, but a small but ultra high quality amount.
I was always taught that you have a great understanding of a language when you’re able to make jokes in it. It just requires a level of wit and understand that goes beyond memorization.
I'm an Army vet, spent time in Korea, the smile on someones face when you've taken the first step of learning something about them is what it truly means to feel "human".
Hi! I'm trying to learn Korean. Any tips or online classes you can recommend?
@@alyciahall4512 kpop
Beautifully said
I remember in middle school when Korean educators came and visited our school and was being given a tour by our principal and I (an army brat having lived a few years on base in Korea) remembered how to say "annyeong haseyo!". It was recess and I remember yelling it out on the playground to them. It was like a group of like 10-20 of them and I will never forget how their faces went from super serious to the brightest smile, and yelled back "annyeong haseyo!"
@@alyciahall4512 Watch Korean TV shows / Movies and don't read subtitles. Might sound weird. But if you're someone who learns by watching/listening, and you can pick up on emotions and vibes, and then rewatch the episode / movie with subtitles on. It can go a long way. Worked for me with Mexican Spanish and Korean.
I love how your reaction to the Chinese dude speaking twi was the same reaction all the people from Ghana had to you 😂
I've met plenty of Ghanaians in the US. I never met one who wasn't friendly, female or male. Truly kind hearted and genuine people.
They are all nice
100%
well you didn’t meet my ex then
perhaps i haven’t met a nice ghanaian yet but the ones i’ve met jus straight up nasty
For real my first coworker was from Ghana and fuck me couldn't find a more upbeat, harding man in your life. I kid you not man was working two jobs while studying a PhD in English.
It baffles me how people can be so dismissive/unaccepting of other cultures. This is so freaking cool and the food looks so good
Wait until you try it and find out it also tastes good!
I love the idea of learning new stuff about other cultures and seeing the good within. I do wish some people were not so quick to dismiss it or cancel you for appreciating another culture.
It is! West African food is (in my opinion) some of the best food ever. V biased and v proud loool
@@mutelarsorhougbe4606 I'm not biased and agree! This white boi loves his Jollof rice! :-)
What are you on about dude?
I swear this man will be protected in any place he's in. Just because he speaks the language the respect they have for him. Amazing!
Such a great point :)
Him(and most people in my opinion) learning a language and actively speaking, or trying to speak it with native speakers also shows a respect for them and their culture, its a beautiful interaction regardless of the language spoken. Im a Canadian who was raised only speaking french until ~ age 10 when I started learning English, and now at 30, am trying to learn Polish to communicate with some of my wifes relatives who speak no English or French 🤣 its a journey. Anyways this was a very long way of saying that most native speakers appreciate ANY effort towards learning their language.
He inspired me to learn different languages and travel the world❤ my dream country is to go Japan and learn the lingo.
@@gh0strider_v341there is one place in the world he would not be protected for speaking their language
Absolutely
i need to keep reminding myself to watch your channel in the privacy of my home or look stupid out in public because i smile all throughout the videos especially this one. i have people looking at my smiling face like i'm crazy. jeeez
I'm surprised people in today's world would find it crazy to see a smiling person watching a KZhead video on their phone(I assume)!
Literally me on a bus rn
Being angry is the norm , lol
It actually relaxes me to see people smiling on their phone. You look much better when you’re being yourself. Vibe to the music you’re listening to while you’re outside, watch your ytb videos, do not restrain yourself. Believe me, I’m a shy person in public, but I still mumble lyrics on my own, because I just feel like it, of course not aloud. Haha
@@funshine817 I still do it though...heheheh
The man (husband) from Ghana's reaction was my favorite by far. The instant "oh" of confusion to realizing that you just spoke his native language was so genuine.
"Yeah I am Ghanan, and you too apparently" That is just beautiful. I love watching these videos for how peoples 'shields' just drop and the beaming smiles appear. The artificial divides we create just evaporate. We need to clone this guy; a few more Xiaomas and we could have world peace and harmony!
i've felt this since i started watching the amount of happiness and pure joy people get out someone understanding and learning, speaking their language is contagious. I wonder how much more of a better understanding all people of earth would have if we just leaned into the richness of our cultures and learned more about each other.
Unfortunately we don't all have the linguistic gifts this guy has
Truly the definition of a man of culture
Lol I sent it to my sister calling her worthless. She’s married to Ghanaian man 🤣🤣🤣🤣
just reminds me of how prejudiced most people are... they assume you are a hostile unless you speak some words they recognize... and on the flip side every scammer and thief easily has endless naive victims while good people go around alone and being treated worse than dirt without a smile... start treating people as if they are family, y'all.
I love how everyone lightens up and smiles when they hear you speaking their language. It’s good. My Aunt knew 7 languages. I’m sure if she was alive today she would have learned even more.
I realize I'm a random stranger, but which languages, if I can ask, and why those ones?
@@aepigeons9375 Now, she died of leukaemia in the 1970s so apologies on the memory. I think I can remember most of the languages she spoke, though one is technically a dead language. English, Welsh, French, German, Swahili, Latin, Spanish. I think she was working on Italian. There was a natural progression to most. She was Welsh so English and Welsh were her defacto languages. Latin is sort of the key to the "romance languages" of Spanish, French and Italian. She learnt German so that she could have a crack at Dutch and Old Norse. Once you learn certain languages most languages near them become easier to figure out.
Me being an Indian origin. We are polyglot since childhood. I know hindi, urdu, bengali, punjabi, english, spanish (because of my dominican gf ) 😁, russian (I have permaculture business in kazan) and arabic.

Ditto!!
Keep your head up bro, find as many things that make you smile as you can
It’s not just that he can speak their language that makes them smile. It’s that their culture is still respected to this level where people love to learn it, and especially knowing he’s broadcasting it to millions who are also interested. Keeps their heritage alive! Keep doing this!
and he always supports their businesses!!! always buys something everywhere he goes
I wish I could do this! His brain is amazing. I could barely learn some spanish. Languages are so hard for me!

You do a very important job of showing positive things about African countries. Unfortunately, the media tends to only publish images of misery and suffering. We noticed how people are generally kind and welcoming and how the countries of Africa have beautiful places and fascinating cultures.
Positive would be to dispel stereotypes saying Africans are getting excited and Africans are giving me free food is doing the opposite.
@Equinox using sensitive to try and shut down a valid point doesn't work. Africans are not a monolith and neither are "Africans doing this and that" it is a continent of diverse people and the titles are just crass.

I’m Ghanaian and this is so heartwarming to watch. I grew up in the UK and even when I speak twi fluently adults get very impressed. That makes them like you more and excited they may even offer you a discount when you go to Ghana.
The main thing that I see in all your videos is the joy and love you’ve found learning other languages and exploring other cultures. I still believe there is much more love in the world than hate, despite what the television and internet tells us. Thanks for such an uplifting channel! ❤️
It only takes those willing to be with their brothers and sisters to acknowledge they've never been alone or isolated. Technology is a double edged sword. It can bring the common man together, but as always, there will be those who use it to deceive. Be well 💚
the internet is the most dangerous and useful tool ever invented. its more dangerous than an atomic bomb because its not physical, its mental.
Well as long as I live in slavery (government is slavery) and 98% of people are happy with it, how should I be joyful about that?
I wholeheartedly agree!
There is few guys from pakistan at work (I work in the UK) and for fun I picked up few words and they are also very happy when I speak arabic/urdu to them. Also apparently my polish accent allows me to spell some stuff spot on in their language, I would randomly out of nowhere say something perfectly and they also would get shocked lol.

Nelson Mandela once said, "Because when you speak a language, English, well many people understand you, including Afrikaners, but when you speak Afrikaans, you know you go straight to their hearts.” (many people tend to misquote this, ironically the Mandela effect) Whether people misquote it or not, he's still right and this can be said about any language. It's amazing how much happiness and friendliness occurs when people relate to and understand one another. Not all heroes wear capes, and the ability to converse with a wide variety of native speakers in their native languages is practically a superpower. When people move to another country where their native language isn't the dominant one, it's hard to understand. But when you're constantly expected to assimilate to another country's culture, values, and society, it must be so nice to have someone take that step for you too to better connect with new communities and welcome them with open arms
If learning culture is to much for you, you shouldn't move there.
Ben je Nederlands of was Afrikaans een typo?

This is cultural acceptance and appreciation. When respect and love are given you can almost always respect in return. He gives off such good energy 👏
This video is so uplifting. People are so impressed and honored when they see that you’ve made an effort to understand their language and culture. You can see an instant connection light up in their eyes and it’s beautiful. The world would be a better place if more people truly respected different cultures and made an effort to learn new languages to form a more diverse social circle. Cheers, Xiaoma. You are setting such a great example for everyone.

He was great! A little context though, Xiaoma asked if he was _accustomed_ to the food there, and that's when he responded with the whole Chinese restaurants everywhere deal. That's definitely important for Chinese people if they can't handle spice.

I'd give anything for every human to be this in love with other cultures of the world. There is so many human connections being made. And everyone should feel it.
Universal language, happiness, love, empathy, anger, hatred, sadness. I think its really neat no matter how many names their are for a banana there is only one way to convey happiness. Smiile!!
I keep watching these and it's always nice to see how happy it seems to make people when you speak to them in their languages. Absolutely love the content man, fantastic
I challenge anyone to find more friendly people on this entire planet than those from Africa. Beautiful souls and Beautiful people
White male but to Ghana 3x, and you are correct no one comes close to the kindness pouring out from these beautiful people. I was well fed every place I went. ALWAYS WHITE TEETH FROM EVERYONE SMILING. It's like a different planet
People from france 🤣
@@mpforeverunlimited french ppl are..... 💀
Xiaoman really needs to get picked up by a streaming service for his own show. I truly think this is the content that will break down the walls between the hearts of people around the world
Absolutely genius idea
Your videos are therapeutic man..thank you.
Xiaoma is bringing people together one language at a time. Thank you 🙏🏼 much love and respect ❤
I love to see the peoples reaction when you speak their language. I wish you would upload these more often. Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪
When you speak to someone in a language they understand, it goes to their head... When you speak to someone in their own language, it goes to their heart. =)
