The guy studying chemistry speaks REALLY GOOD english. Almost with a tiny English accent.

9:36....She is Korean and she speaks literally perfect Mandarin and English

He can speak better Chinese than me, but I am an Indian and I can’t speak Chinese at all.

Mandarin is acknowledged to be a difficult language to learn for native English speakers, so this guy's skills (and accent, apparently) are seriously impressive. However, the level of English skills among these Beijing students is also good, and in some cases (cf the guy studying Chemistry) very impressive, given that they've not studied outside China. Congratulations all round!

Not that you need the acknowledgement, but your Chinese is probably the most natural accent for a nonnative I've heard on youtube.

"I'm waiting for my boyfriend" translates to "get lost, creep" in any language...

The guy at 4:35 could be a damn good interpreter. The fact he is able to explain an idiom, or phrase so well is inspiring.

I actually had the same thing with an old Cambodian man. He can speak English well, but then, he suddenly switched to Mandarin on me before I planned it, so I answered him in Cantonese to see if he could keep up, yet he not only kept up, he stumped me by replying in Hokkien (which I am not fluent in). A week later, I used a more Northern English accent for a minor revenge.

this is the most natural chinese accent I've ever heard from a foreigner. you could definitely pass for a native. -- edit: this comment is pretty old but there have been lots of replies so i just want to clarify: i'm in no way saying that laoma chris is the most impressive language learner or the only foreigner who can speak mandarin this well! i'm merely saying that, out of all the foreigners i've heard speaking mandarin, his accent could most easily pass for a native's. i don't doubt that there are other foreigners who speak mandarin just as well, or even better. also, other language-learners (such as laoshu, xiaomanyc, and more), are impressive as well! mandarin can be difficult for english-speakers to learn, and the fact that they can learn mandarin to such an extent is amazing. this comment is in no way meant to discredit their achievements. i just wanted to point out that laoma chris has an extremely natural chinese accent, even more so than myself, despite the fact that i am fluent and have learned chinese for 18 years (since birth) as an american-born chinese with immigrant parents. sure, laoma chris has had the advantage of actually living in china, but that doesn't take away from how good his mandarin is, especially for a foreigner! -- tl;dr please don't take this comment the wrong way or argue in the comments. all language-learners are impressive, and if you are one yourself, 加油!

"are you chinese?" "do I look chinese?" KILLED me

I am Chinese. Born in Shanghai, spent ten years in London and seven years in Hong Kong. Your Chinese is better than mine. Your English is better than mine. Curious what other three languages you speak. This is insane. Have to introduce you to my friend who just quit her job in academia in China to teach Chinese students English. She speaks 8 languages.

For a foreigner, this is by far the best one I’ve heard, hardly any accent

Dude, you're an inspiration. Anyone that can dedicate their time to mastering another language. I give them big respect. My wife is Ukrainian and speaks 4 languages. I really need to level up.

That year 3 chem dude spoke amazing English!

As a white chinese speaker myself who has learned the language for a long time. I love having the option to read the mandarin and english at the same time to see how you would say those sentences it's a great learning tool.

国内大学生英文的读、写都很好，词汇量很大，但口语可能稍差，不过只要有机会练习，就会提高很快。

This guy can speak better Chinese than me and I’m chinese

马斯瑞是我见过说英文最好的北京人

I did an exchange program for 2 years in Beijing but 99% of my lessons were in English and I studied with mainly foreigners, we had a Chinese class but i didn’t relearn much, I guess you truly have to immerse yourself full-time into the language to learn well because it wasn’t just me as foreigner in that class who struggled. But I learn pretty much all the basic daily communication skills. I still watch shows in mandarin and I wished I could return one day to learn full time the language

So inspiring! First time see foreigner speaks so fluent. I studied in Tianjin daxue for one year

I’m a American born Chinese. We speak Chinese at home. In 45 years he speaks better Chinese than me.

This man’s accent is far more authentic than my Chinese-American face. :/

Imagine learning English with a heavy Scottish accent and not knowing

I'm totally impressed how fluent he speaks, unbelievable, congrats sugar

Usually. Once a person becomes proficient in a language they don't enunciate each word and start skipping and melding words together for speed like this guy. Reason being. Fluent speakers can get the gist of the sentence.

那个韩国妹妹的英文和中文都好棒啊，挺可爱的

The weird thing is when a Chinese speaks perfect English in States, everyone thinks it's normal.

White guy: *starts speaking mandarin Asian guy: "Dude I'm from New Jersey"

Chris: what you study Korean girl: accounting Chris: your English is really good!

我对他们的英语好不好一点兴趣也没有，就喜欢看他们反应😂

A co-worker of mine is from Beijing. He went to school in Texas to get his computer science degree and obviously is a mandarin speaker although he also speaks Cantonese. The hilarious part is that he learned a lot of English in Texas and actually says "y'all" every now and then. He has a quasi-Texas accent that completely is against his appearance. We've been trying to speak with a cowboy accent every time he is around. He takes it well and enjoys our little language pranks on him.

These are such impressive young people, intelligent, polite, well mannered, friendly

I’m Chinese and he speaks better Chinese than me

I’m surprised at how good everyone’s English is!

So he's lived in China for eight years...that helps explain a lot! I'd hope after living in any country for eight years someone serious about learning a language could achieve a high level of mastery over it. (This is not to take away from his linguistic abilities--he's clearly talented)

When more people know you, you become more popular, resulting in less people falling for your pranks as time goes.

天赋！不解释！在中国七八年就可以说地道的北京话，这就是天赋！我在美国十年也没学到老马这英语水平

Every person there speak English while most Students in America aren’t actually forced forced to take. A language just for like Graduation requirements. But after that no one just really studied language

You speak Chinese better than i speak English..and i'm from Manhattan ( NYC USA)...fun videos ..keep up the great work.

5:38 really liked this kind he is so chill and understanding and well at explaining stuff hope he succeeds

As someone that speaks both languages, I find it so enjoyable that everything can understood even when they code-switch a little. That is why it is always good to learn multiple languages, it can be use for fun sometimes!

I’d think of that word or personality trait as an “introverted, extrovert”. Could be wrong though. That’s a tough one.

I am a native English Speaker/White Girl from Texas......and to hear the students speak English so well is amazing....I love these videos!

马思瑞这么重的京腔竟然被这么多人以为是东北口音，可能好多人已经对京腔不熟悉了

我看到了我的高中同桌现北大韩语系大神！

Not everyone thinks pku is the best university, ask students from Tsinhgua

Very enjoyable! Unfortunately, many Singaporean Chinese do not speak Mandarin that fluently. 加油⛽年轻人，很棒! Best wishes from Singapore

I tried my “u-tube” learned Chinese on a Chinese waitress a few years back. I thought I was ordering shredded chilli beef amongst other things, but she started crying and two Bruce Lee look-a-like waiters dragged me out and kicked me around the street. I still don’t know what upset them so much.

看出来北大学生英语确实挺好，而且表现挺大方。👍

老马又出去忽悠小姑娘了！！！！！！！！

Now I wish I could read and speak Chinese. It honestly sounds and Looks so Beautiful but it seems IMPOSSIBLE to learn. How did Chris even start learning? And he got this far in 8 years? That's really impressive, I think

Loved the video. The English word you are looking for is 'reserved' Specifically 'he/she is a reserved person'. "The definition of reserved is saved for someone or some purpose, or is a person who doesn't share his feelings, thoughts or emotions."

采访一下海淀区的中学，可能比大学生英语还好😂

you just have to love their reactions

youtube: hey what about this video on white guys talking chinese lol? me: lol sure me 500 videos later: I want to learn chinese.

You are my hero and I'm from Honduras like your mother, blessings from chicago.

那个韩国小姐姐太强了 中英文都说得很好啊

好喜欢那个韩国的小姐姐！！说英文让人很舒服的感觉

Wish I can speak Chinese😤 honestly being bilingual adds a big chunk of gold on your resume....

有點震驚了，台灣隨便一個國立普大英文平均水準可能都比北京大好QQ 11:11 我反而是對這個很有興趣QAQ 好有創意喔~

That Language is mind blowing to me You’re very fortunate to be able to speak it

Gotta love his Chinese fluency and his choppers.

哇靠，我30多年前在北大学过汉语，你视频中的许多画面让我回忆很多过去美好的时光！

I am Chinese, graduated from an ordinary Chinese university, didn't get ideal grade in college entrance examination , either, just merely passed CET4 by good luck, failed in cet6 three times,I went to South Korea for a trip in the summer vacation of my junior year of my university, since then I realized the importance of English,my passion was triggered out,I was 20 that year, right now I am 27 years old, after seven years practice,I feel my spoken English is at least not much worse than students of Peking university of this video, although still with accent, this proved two well-known proverbs,one is no pain no gain, another one is practice makes perfect,btw,my method of English study is creating bilingual environment myself, if it was not urgent,I would require myself to tranlate each of sentences spoken by me into English, gradually,more and more familiar,for students who can only study English domestically,you may consider this method

5:29 I feel like he's learned English in Australia because he has an Australian English speaking accent

As a Brit, the way you pronounce 'okay' in English cracks me up. It's a cross between surfer dude and valley girl.

I must say all the students had great respect, and so good at English. Love the Chinese.

What a way to pick up the ladies! Lol. First lady's body language changed when she heard him. She's like, "heeyyyy...what's up, boo boo!".

Yes, these students spoke great English 👍, unbelievable

BTW, a little suggestion. 我草在多数时候is not polite，建议马老师注意。特别是如果和陌生人说我草的时候 :)

3:57 he was definitely getting those digits to call later 😏😏

Your videos always make me smile. I wish I could speak Mandarin as well as these students can speak English.

3:18 天啊，卧槽……！ 连我都惊呆了！？你的中文太可以了

11:17 when your favorite song comes on the radio.

I am surprised you don't have more subscribers. You are amazing, man. You make your videos really fun. Keep it up.

You kinda look like the guy that does the "CARBONARO EFFECT"

For those with majors in Accounting, one must understand english as they need to communicate with different stakeholders around the globe. 👍👏

马老师最好不要对陌生人说“我操“，大部分人还是觉得听起来不太舒服。换成“妈呀”“我去”之类的会很好多:)

北大可是中国最顶级的大学之一，一个省几十万考生 也就录取 几十个人。在中国，能上北大的基本上都是学霸级别的。佩服这些人！

我在国外都几十年了，英语没你说中文好，你很聪明，加油。

马老师不但英语说的好，人也长的像老外

终于找到了Chris的英文翻译的一个错误哈哈哈。Peking University的U没有capitalized😂😂😂

Se que tambien hablas español mi hermano, dejame decirte que eres "un chingon" como decimos acá en México, un abrazo enorme.

I love their reasons when he speaks in Chinese mandarin...

the girl in white down jacket at 7'20'' is quite adorable

I am going to kidnap this guy and release him after he has taught me all the Chinese he knows !! He is so awesome speaking this language!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 And I just loveeeeee the shocked looks on people's faces when he starts speaking super fluent Chinese!!! 😄

Very impressed with Chris's lanuage skills and accent. I cant even learn more than a few words of another language.

Day late but the description he gave of the unique Chinese word sounds like a perfect description of how most introverts process. Inside - so much. Outside - quiet. But you get to know us & we can be wickedly funny.

很喜欢这个系列，特别是那一秒，他们彻底懵了的时候，诶... 很搞笑....那一刻，她们的脑袋一定是短路，或者浆糊，哈哈

6:52 her walkaway just kills me every time i watch this vid... You have superb timing for the language switcheroo.

That chinese dude studying chemistry spoke english real well and seemed cool as hell👍

Chris, ojalá los latinos pudiéramos disfrutar aún más de tus ocurrencias, si fuese posible, igualmente los subtítulos en español. Un abrazo desde Colombia!

That literally sounds like my Chinese cousin when he was 15. *MOST IMPRESSIVE*

The student with the glasses sounds so posh, makes me feel like I speak broke

I really appreciate the (speaking in foreign language) subtitle you get if you turn on closed captions, very helpful KZfaq lol.

i like when he starts speaking chinese he goes into a little dance

韓國人跟美國人用超標準的中文對話，我看了什麼...

Canada Goose jacket was a give away that you're Chinese from Canada 😅

告诉你，我是“长江大学” Yangtze University的，My English is also very good lol. );D

I think it would be cool if he had a sign that challenged people to come talk to him if they think their English is super good. Not sure if people would actually take the challenge though.
