I like this Korean girl, she was friendly to Chinese. The Japanese girl tried to separate them.

As a person who's studied all 3 of those languages, I found Cantonese way more similar to Japanese and Korean than Mandarin, countless similarities.

Long time ago, Korean and Japanese borrowed a lot of vocabulary from Old Chinese. This is why all 3 often use basically the same words. Mandarin Chinese changed a lot the pronunciation with time. However, other chinese languages like Cantonese Chinese kept a lot of the Old Chinese pronunciation. Therefor, Cantonese pronunciation would be more similar to Korea and Japanese comparing with Mandarin. For example, family in Cantonese is "Ga Zuk" similar to Korean "Ga Jog" and Japanese "Ka Zoku". Meanwhile Mandarin is "Jia Zu" which sounds more different.

They should also compare the writings, especially for Chinese and Japanese

The words "advertisement" & "flower" in Chinese literally sounds the same as Vietnamese pronounce, it's just accent difference. In Vietnamese language we say "Quảng cáo" and "Hoa".

5:40 Japan has that word too 1.体karada= 몸mom 2.身体 しんたいshin(sin)tai=신체sinchae(che)5:32 The first is the language of own country and the second is an expression that borrows Chinese character

I think 구루마 comes from くるま, maybe back in the days when Korea was part of Japan before WW2

In this video, when they said Chinese, they meant Mandarin Chinese. There are many dialects of Chinese, and they sound different. Fuzhounese and Cantonese are older than Mandarin, thus, some of these sounds are more similar to Korean or Japanese because Korean and Japanese borrowed these words from Chinese.

I Love the Soft Talk from the American Girl

Tutorial on distinguishing Chinese-Japanese-Korean people:1. Reading AURA 2. Hearing LANGUAGE 3. Seeing CHARACTER 4. Analyzing WAY OF THINKING 5. Following HABITS.

As a Cantonese, I do find that when they are similar, they are often closer to Cantonese than Mandarin. (But in fact, there are many dialects of Chinese. Cantonese is more widely known because it is more widely spread around the world with Cantonese immigrants. In fact, due to the movement of people across the country, it would be more convenient to use Mandarin, which is derived from the northern dialect, result in many other dialects disappearing. Emphasizing only the preservation of Cantonese is a neglect of other Chinese dialects.)

Cantonese numbers and Korean Numbers are closer sounding.

Can you make this video to malphilindo (malaysia, Filippine, Indonesia)? Because they also have a similar word.

In Indonesia 🇮🇩 we say : 1. Count : Satu, Dua, Tiga, Empat, Lima, Enam, Tujuh, Delapan, Sembilan, Sepuluh. 2. Bag : Tas 👜 3. Temperature : Suhu/Temperatur🎚️ 4. Furniture : Perabotan 🛋️ 5. City : Kota 🏢 6. Doctor : Dokter 🧑🏻‍⚕️ 7. Family : Famili/Keluarga 👫🏻 8. Cheese : Keju 🧀 9. Body : Badan🧍🏻 10. Weekend : Akhir Pekan 📅 11. Advertisement : Iklan 📺 12. Park : Taman 🖼️ 13. Skin : Kulit 🦵🏻 14. ID Card : Kartu Identitas 🪪 15. Coca-Cola : Koka Kola 🍷 16. Flower : Bunga 💐 17. Cherry Blossom : Bunga Sakura 🌸 18. Car : Mobil 🚙

In Philippines we also have word “kaban” pronounce as kában but it usually refers to trunk chest. People now adays use “sack of rice” for measurement but before we use “chest of rice”. Some areas still use it as measurement.

❤❤so interesting

Vietnamese has a lot of similar loanwords too.

Interesante 🧐🤔

Indonesian here, learning Chinese and Japanese. The Japanese borrowed a lot from Chinese, but they do have their own words as well. For example the word for “car” which has already mentioned in this video, it can be either _kuruma_ or _jidousha_ with the latter being the one that was borrowed from Chinese _zidongche_ which is a word that is obsolete in Chinese itself. Another example from the video is the Japanese word for “skin” which is _hada_ and less commonly _hifu_ which was borrowed from _pifu_ in Chinese. I don’t know much about Korean, but I think it would be basically the same case.

Woah who could've guessed two languages that used to be exclusively written with chinese characters and that have massive amounts of chinese loanwords have similar words

Wrong. Instead Just a few sumilar words, look at general sound, tone, body language etc...then you will see these are totally three different language

Is this vid directly copied from a Korean channel called " World Friends"? On the other hand, there a some words that used different letters although they have a same corresponding counterpart. I speak all those languages including Vietnamese, it's natural that sino originated words sound similar between these four languages. They can all be written by using the same Chinese characters 漢字.

Comparing the corresponding hanzi would be fun trivia too. Like, hanja, kanzi, traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese. Also if the chinese speaker could also speak Cantonese or Fujianese.

Can you make this video with India Pakistan Bangladesh and America and Japan...plzzz 😊😊

some words in Korean and Japanese ar similar to Hokkien

Wasei Kango.

I think the Japanese invasion may have influenced Korean

korean and japanese are like "eastern dialect" in chinese. you don't compare japanese and korean to mandarin because mandarin is based on northern chinese accent. if you compare them to eastern chinese dialect they are much more similar.and it's reasonable because japan and korea are in the east of china

Man they sound a thousand times more attractive when they speak their own language. English on them sounds like a stressed 45 yo waitress at a diner

WHY ARE YOU MISSING OUT CANTONESE???

I can’t understand that Chinese the middle girl said

Korean was invaded by both Japan and China which influenced their language, but they created their own alphabet

In Philippines 🇵🇭 1: Counting: Isa, dalawa, tatlo, apat, lima, anim, pito, walo, siyam, sampu, 2: Bag: Bag 3: Temperature: Temperatura 4: Furniture: Muwebles/Furniture 5: City: Lungsod/Siyudad 6: Doctor: Doktor 7: Family: Pamilya 8: Cheese: Keso 9: Body: Katawan 10 : Weekend: Katapusan ng linggo 11: Advertisement: Patalastas/Advertisement 12: Park: Parke 13: Skin: Balat 14: ID Card: ID Card 15: Coca-cola: Coca-cola 16: Flower: Bulaklak 18: Car: Kotse/Sasakyan

한중일 발음시리즈 영상에서 항상 느끼는거지만 한국인 출연자가 대화를 주도하는 역할이라면 어원이나 언어학 지식이 있는 사람을 좀 초빙했음 좋겠어요 대부분 같은 한자어를 두고 각국의 음운변화 때문에 발음이 비슷해지거나 다른 것 뿐인데 대화는 주도하면서 어떤 단어는 왜 서로 비슷하고 왜 다른건지 설명을 제대로 못하고 걍 같네 다르네 리액션만 하고 끝나니까 시청자들이 얼마나 답답하면 매번 댓글로 설명하겠음?...

This Chinese girl is really not so confident and prepared... She didn't participate in the discussion and couldn't spot the connections between Chinese words and the other two in many cases. Quite annoying. And this American girl is so ignorant that it hurt my eyes a little bit. Most importantly, if this video is meant to be educational and enlightening, someone knowledgeable about all three languages should participate and educate them as well as us audience. Otherwise, this only passes on more misinformation.
