🥰🥰🥰 it was the sweetest moment! That's how we know German boyfriend is a good egg.

🥲

A wh*te "person" will never be able to truly understand someone from another race. NEVER LET YOUR GUARD DOWN WHEN INTERACTING WITH EUROPEAN DEMONS.

I'm not crying you're crying

😅❤

So true 🎉

Omg this comment is fire and genius

I Can agree so much. Actually as a German i use it to get better in english as well

oh I feel u so much🫂 I disabled the KZfaq app on my phone for this same reason

Hello, my name is Kartik, I am from India, I am a big fan of yours, I want you to try to make videos in Hindi language also, so that your name will be known in India also. Also, I want to tell you that if you allow me, I can recreate your video in Hindi language and put it on KZfaq channel.

That actually sounds fun. Not many people get your experience.

My boyfriend is Australian, I’m French. At home we speak Frenglish with a silly accent but we speak ‘professional English’ at work. It’s called code switching, look it up :)

For sure ! The Ex is German, I'm from South Africa, we lived in the Netherlands - we invented a whole new variety of international English 🎈 These guys make each other laugh , that's a big part of it - and their joy in each other comes off of these videos 💌

Same here. Greetings from Tricity in Poland

I agree. The Pasinis are very authentic as well. The only 2 happy couples that bring me you when watching their videos 😊

Couldn't agree more.

Agreed! And German Boyfriend's presence is felt just as fully, even though he isn't on camera. The clear mutual respect of boundaries and support of one another is genuinely heartwarming. ❤

Yes, the idea is of mother father and children forming the core of the family unit, like the nucleus of ana attom, with grandparents and cousins orbiting like electrons and the various family units grouping together like molecules.

this made me cry idk why

Very insightful

What’s that “Thingamebob” lol

Same in German and I guess other languages as well by the way. 😅 If it's not your first language you always think it's bad if you can't remember a specific word or expression, but in your own mother tongue you just sort of smoothly talk your way around it in my experience? So great to see that these two have found a way to do that too.

'thingy' or 'the thing' is my favourite English word. I can never remember the word for the dustpan and brush, it's been years and it just doesn't stick so I have resorted to calling it 'the sweepy thing', my coworkers now understand me straight away lol

Maybe ask your family or friends to take you with you on trips? I know some people older than you who are vacationing away every year for 20 days to all different places! It's not impossible, just maybe choose destinations that aren't super expensive or overly popular so that you don't get tired with crowds and too much waiting around.

I'm exactly the same. I don't care so much about visiting tourist spots. I want to see how people actually live. Currently living in Japan, and very happy to have this experience. I'm glad you were able to travel. Even small amounts of travel expand your understanding of the world so much.

Reminds me of a friend of mine who speaks Spanglish with her mom, and it’s so interesting to listen to. It’s not just English words sprinkled in to Spanish, but uses English/Spanish hybrid words, pronunciations, and grammar. Also, some of the “wrong words” like they speak about in this video, but that makes sense to them. That’s the amazing thing about languages I think. They don’t ever stand still.

They have the best communication and that is why their relationship works so well! I love them.

And where are you from?

@@reccinto I'm from the US. I spent 5 years goofing off in Taiwan in the 90s where I met her in the first week. Although it took 2 years to get a date.

especially interracial/intercultural/multicultural relationships!!

She's so loveable! She's the rare influencer I could really be friends with.

Yin

But isn't that still an aunt? I never called my Great Aunt by that title, just Aunt/Auntie

@ibeemelissae yeah I guess but if she was older then she would be referred to as a lola which is the same title as grandmother. I suppose that example didn't show what I meant as clearly as I meant.

​@@_hunnybeI always specify as there's large differences between my aunts and great aunts

My wife is Filipino and she has more first cousins than I have living relatives 😂

@dbul2542 that's also pretty accurate. Just blood related first cousins and none of their spouses he has like 20 something first cousins. Imagine when I met them all at once for the first time at Christmas. Lol.

Not to distract from Uyen's fabulous content, but until she finds time to do that ;) - I suggest the channel "Simple Germany" from a peruvian-german couple which covers all of the above.

Talk to an immigration lawyer if you haven’t already.

Why not? A spousal visa is one of the easiest to obtain

I'm American and it upsets me that you're having difficulty with immigration. It sounds like you and your wife are doing things the right way, while all around me I see people who enter illegally and get rewarded with tons of benefits. I've worked for employers who've gone through the process the right way and my current employer is sponsor to his mother trying to become a citizen now from Canada and it makes me sick the time and money that this costs. And it's just so unfair. Not to mention that so many of the ones sneaking in are bad people, dangerous criminals!

I think there's one where she is speaking with her parents (off screen) and then translating what they say into English for German boyfriend. But she's translating it in a funny way. But I agree, more Vietnamese videos would be great!

Agreed! I hope you make even more of these long-form videos. 😊

Yes! Granted, I’m more fluent in English than Spanish these days but Spanish was my first language. I’ve noticed that I have a deeper and firm yet feminine voice in English and in Spanish it’s much softer, quiet and higher in pitch lol.

@@dylanthevillian516 Everything gets deeper in English haha Most of my friends have higher pitch voice when they speak Japanese than English haha

I’m a big fan of these guys too. I’m visiting Germany soon, do you recommend Stuttgart? [sorry if this is weird, no need to reply ✌️]

@@FollowmedowntheNumberWholei personally don‘t like Stuttgart that much! :D i recommend hamburg, münchen or berlin if u wanna visit a big city

My husband is American, I was originally from Germany. While that might not sound like much of a cultural difference, the very idea that we "know" American culture because of movies etc is very deceptive. It works great for us, though, because we're both xenophile. Probably the most important part is that you don't just passively accept that your partner is different, but that you enjoy it. If you're the kind of person who seeks out new experiences, this is for you. Good luck!

@@p.s.shnabel3409that’s so lovely - happy for you both - cheers!

Don't let Germans tell you there's true freedom of speech; there isn't, not now, not in the past. Some topics are downright illegal (e.g. a lot to do with WWII), some are just very strong social taboos (money, criticism of others etc). What you learn early on is to have a public opinion and a private one. Part of the reason why a German might take a while to respond is they're making complicated calculations how honest they can be under the circumstances. Between figuring out whether it's a "safe" topic and how much they can trust the person they're talking to, it can take a visible amount of time. Not all Germans are like this, nor are they like this all the time. It also varies from region to region. Which makes the whole thing even more confusing and frustrating. I'm German born and bred, married my American husband when I was already well into middle age. It took me years to even start losing this habit, but after nearly a decade I've opened up a lot (at least that's what I'd like to believe). It certainly makes me feel more at ease and less anxious.

Could hold some truth! The English word for feeling great worry about a situation is just the German word for fear, after all

As a German, I think: Yes, that's definitely a point.

yes, that's def. true

So true!

Yes, yes, yes!

Okay, i am confused. German bf has a nuclear family. Maybe there isn't a term in German language for it, but he comes from a traditional family, mother, father, child(ren). That is the nucleus.
