這個影片的目的不是執著某些讀音，而是想你們記住母語人士在說話時也會犯錯 哈 所以你們在說其他語言時可完全自由奔放 不需害羞。 還有，Candidate的確有兩個正確讀音，但其他題目的發音應該只有一個正確官方答案，Desert 我們標明了是「名詞」。 Hope you guys can learn something from this video!! Even native speakers make mistakes when they talk, so don't be shy when you speak a foreign language. Candidate。

讀過linguistics既人表示，你真系好狹隘，就例如women因為語流音變，可以讀【womin 】唔一定讀【wimin】，唔好話人地錯或者唔標準，dislike你系抵死既

But the problem the alternative pronunciation is just another way a lot of people pronounce it, it is not a mistake. You make people angry if you are telling them they are wrong when they are not. And you make it worse by putting advertisements inside your video.

Honestly, the game is fine and funny to me. Certainly, there will be much less criticism if the game is played in other languages lol

Disappointed.

完全唔係話唔使怕羞囉，3:30話完人地讀錯，係跟Cambridge 仲要之後再play "sponsored "嘅讀音😏 同你講呢段嘢好唔同囉

If English is your first language, you pronounce the words like the people in your region. They should have specified the pronunciation according to the Cambridge Dictionary. Only the Quuen and her family speak the Queen's English.

咁既水平出黎考人英文, 唔好影衰香港人啦... 已檢舉~

Shitty U

我覺得你把影片改成調查在香港環街頭不同人的口音, 然後宣傳一下你們的課程是教正規口音就好了 你們的標題就在嘲笑那些人不用標準口音了..

Wish I could dislike this video more than once 🙄

I believe the first word “Candidate” can be spoken two different ways. The way people said it in your video who you considered wrong is the US version. Your way is the UK version. Everything else is fine though.

跣人「weman」真係咁好玩咩？🤡

這是自大到有點柒的街頭英語測試。你以為英語是普通話，會有個正音敲定委員會，制定所謂「正音」？識少少就當係正音大使，真是自以為是。

Fuck Man U challenged the English man a simple English word women ????????? Come on 🤦🏻‍♀️

come to singapore, you'd have a laugh

大家算吧啦, 呢條友咁撚得戚以為好撚有錢咁, 有錢都唔會買啲咁cheap嘅Tiffany手鏈俾女朋友啦, 係啲大陸人先會買呢隻牌子嘅啫, 只係925純銀就唔值呢啲貴價錢啦, 只係買個牌子🤣曬命都唔係晒呢啲啊, 垃圾YouTuber🤣🤣😒 我諗英文好過你嘅只有香港人生教練馬米高超越過你啲英文，佢講嘅英文舒服好多, 最鍾意就係睇佢嘅YouTube😏🤨

You should have them try to say “Natalie” and “Mocha”

I think we should tread the video as a way of entertainment, don't argue too seriously about whether the pronunciations are right or wrong

Yeah, Canadians won. Canada rock!

“You’re not from England are you?” “Challenged? Alright let it go, bye”

Hope next time try Filipino people do this as well

Just one word and she said '' according to the cambridge dictionary''.. Dear do you even speak every english words with cambridge dictionary pronunciation.

太基本 點會錯... memo women 點見人

甘簡單， 一定要識

It is too rude to say people’s pronunciation is WRONG , you can say it softly, but not that so hard And this video only focuses about British English, so people came from America will always got the ‘WRONG’ pronunciation. Just don’t take too serious to this video , see it like a funny video

nice your giving them 50 hk dollars if they got it correct (which is basically pocket money to them)

I have being hearing about this blank ATM card for a while and i never really paid any interest to it because of my doubts. Until one day i discovered a hacking group called dark web, they are really good at what they are doing. Back to the point, I inquired about The Blank ATM Card. If it works or even Exist. They told me Yes and that its a card programmed for random money withdraws without being noticed and can also be used for free online purchases of any kind. This was shocking and i still had my doubts. Then i gave it a try and asked for the card and agreed to their terms and conditions. Hoping and praying . Few days later i received my card and tried with the closest ATM machine close to me, It worked like magic. I was able to withdraw up to $5,000. This was unbelievable and the happiest day of my life with my Family. So far i have being able to withdraw up to $90,000 without any stress of being caught. I don’t know why i am posting this here, i just felt this might help those of us in need of financial stability. email Mr Rick via rickatmcardoffer@gmail.com DM now becuse ATM has really change my life. If you want to contact them. now.xx

肉9酸😂 reported

當全世界都唔係咁讀只有嗰條友係咁讀時，反而係佢讀錯。

我也讀woman,oooooo.你不能說我們錯，因為是美式和英式的差別

Definitely To-May-To...🇨🇦

Hahahahaha laugh die 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Why don't you ask Stupid ?

The video is not criticizing the accent of the speakers. It only requires getting right components for getting marks...... Those who score marks do not always produce perfect pronunciation anyway.

個見：語言 -不是用來炫耀的，是用來溝通的，目的是另（令）對方知道你在說什麼。不過，既然要學第二第三甚至第四語言，那麼就要認真一點，注意文法，語法，和發音... 。不過香港人習慣懶音，香港人習慣不認真，喜歡炫耀，跟 “星 la” 系朋友喜歡炫耀他們有語言天分異曲同工。時代演變，母語人士，特別在口語時候，也不注重 文法，不注重發音了，是事實。其實香港人的英語水平近年走下坡，在重要的公司年報，法律文件裡面經常出現，連我這般”水皮“的都隨便抽到錯處。 遺憾。我有另外一個看法，特別網上很多版主教人怎樣怎樣去說得像個 ”母語“ 人士，有必要裝嗎？ 就用英語來做例子，假若你有運跟 Londoner 學，自然跟 他/她 的口音(accent)，假如他們是來自 英國 南部，midland， Scotland, Ireland 或 Wales， 又或是 香港本土，你怎麼裝？ 其實英國本土就有這些不同口音，不少我沒辦法聽懂，更不要說 澳大利亞，南非，加拿大，美國。同樣他們本土口音也視乎來自哪地區的。同樣的道理，日本語也一樣。既然不能說得像個“本土”人士那麼就認真的按文法，語法，來說話。 //PS//：為了表示我認真，我 edit "令”字。 因為我用拼音，偶爾會選字出錯。補充：我非常反感那些糾纏於以下哪個才是正確：WC，toilet, wash room, bath room, lavatory....; 及以下發音：either, neither, data, can't ....之類。超級無聊。

Lol everyone is so triggered! It’s just a fun vid to me.

ㄐㄧㄚ ㄎㄡ ㄌㄧㄢˊ~ ㄌㄤˊㄇㄨˇ ㄗㄡ˙，ㄎㄧˋㄗㄨㄟˋㄤˊ ㄇㄡ ㄙㄞˋ~

这种隔离效果不大，还是加副口罩吧

Seriously, this video is really stupid. As long as people understand it, it is fine.

I usually give thumb up to videos even the contents are super boring, but this one I am giving a thumb down (yes, my first one). I would give extra thumbs down if youtube allows me. This is terrible. There shouldn't be a right or wrong answer for the way people pronounce the words. That's a discrimination against people from different parts of the world.

good english

I read the urban dictionary because it's funnier

Probably the stupidest video I’ve ever seen in a long time.

语言没有什么什么标准，什么什么读音，香港兼容性强，听得懂就ok辽

https://youtu.be/0PeKMcvsOpg 讀得岩又好錯又好，有無grammar 都好。遇上外國人需要幫助摡，可以用最強的身體語言配合外語幫助他們。人本身沒有語言，語言係由人創造出黎目的讓彼此溝通更順利，只要對方明白，乜鬼都可以係「語言」

I thought you went to school in the US... picking them on their accent is consider as racist...

yet they want to migrate to UK lol

candidate。。。。。is correct

it is such a bad video. even for the first word, there are different accents to pronoun CANDIDATE, but you guys insist there was only ONE correct answer🤷🏾‍♂️ do you guys feel superior for speaking English in HK?

口試當然會有標準讀音，一個語言有一個正規標準也是必須的，否則很難令語言普及起來。但直接指不跟隨標準讀音的人是「讀錯」就真的太過了（除非他們測試前有明確向路人表明是按某某標準）。我以下嘗試解釋一下。 我會想的問題是「不跟隨標準讀音就等同『錯 』嗎 ?」，首先我們學習外來語言時或多或少都會和自己本身的語言習慣融合起來，從而形成一個普遍的、可辨識的口音特色，例如說台灣人念「bug」時那個g音會讀出額外的尾音，如果按標準讀音一定不合格，但我們有必要直接說他們讀錯嗎，要求他們不能把尾音發出來想必也很痛苦吧。影片那個來自英格蘭的伯伯聽到有人說他讀錯也直接爆氣走了，我對英格蘭的讀法毫無認識，但至少可知道那伯伯應該對自己地方的讀音很堅持，若果硬要說是錯的話可能會有一堆當地人想衝過來打托哥。 按我的粗淺理解，英文有很多字的讀音都是「不規則」的，即是不能直接看到詞語就能知道發音，例如bad 裡的a 跟smart裡的a 讀起來都不同吧 (但如果是有規則可循的話 請矯正我)，外來人學起來容易混亂然後把自家語言的讀音混進去也算是人之常情吧。 說到最後，語言本身也是用作相互溝通，影片中受訪者的讀音跟標準也相差不遠，我相信絕大部份人都有聽懂吧，若果這還是當作「錯」的話那真的太矯枉過正了。你大可以拿著一個標準四處說人讀錯，但會有一種精英看不起人的感覺，老實說我覺得真的沒有甚麼意義。再者一個語言有眾多口音不是更加有趣嗎? 至於要如何在保留標準和包容地方特色之間取得平衡，甚麼情況下必須要求標準，我就真的不懂了，歡迎大家交流。

四秒八句中文wow！劲!

條片無話方言口音有問題，只不過係考下大家知唔知正確讀音，D評論大開眼界，網民理解能力比想象中低

呢D片真係多9餘

The way they pronounced Candidate is correct in American English. You are British English, so obviously you all pronounce it differently. A lot Hong Kong English speakers don't always pronounce words exactly the British styles and with America's global influence, more of them are learning the American English instead of British English, especially with accents.

其實個feel就似問你「五」點讀，讀「ng」係正音但係大家多讀「m」

good job for 3.2k dislike :D

我觉得还好吧。就像是问中国人”氛围“的普通话标准音怎么读,fen1 wei2。但很多人会念成fen4 wei2。我山西人带着口音念就是feng4 wui2。各个地区口音念出来就更不一样了，这里不是讨论方言，是口音。不同的口音不影响交流无所谓对错，但总有一个标准在那里。个人意见哈

why the host don't wear the masks??? it's useless when you only wear the face shield I don't think they have such a need to show their face while making this video covid-19 is really serious among hk now there are a lot of cases with an unknown source  when I saw this, I just felt like wtf... can u guys treat the virus more seriously ??? so stupid

I was very excited about the video during the introduction, but then the content is very narrow-minded. You do realise there is a difference between pronouncing things clearly wrong and having a specific accent/regional dialect. I mean if the intention of the video is publicity, I guess you achieved it.

you should see if siri can transcode it into english. from speech recognition or google.

3:36 阿伯仲要串嘴，真心服咗佢。單數"woman"先讀"污文"。複數"women"係讀"wi文" 仲叫自己英國人，要重讀英文啦~XD

真心文盲, 仲串人話你唔係英國人 XD

非常欣賞你們！當中我只有2個字讀錯了（cupboard and vegetable ），因為很多時大家習慣了錯音已取笑正音的人，中文也一樣。Women小學已學過；中學時不會讀錯dessert和desert；考會考讀Candidate有人唔明點解我咁讀；工作上我講Memo冇人知係咩😅😅

Watching this in the US and it's not even funny as a joke. Stupid for yall to "right" others English when there are too many accents in English. Honestly, to-marr-to or to-mea-to? It's right either way! Oxford English = right? Well explain to me which Spanish accent is the "right" one then lol. Plain rude and sad for you to do such video.

There’s a lot of other ways you could have made this fun and educational, such as presenting different accents from people of different nationalities to the audience, and at the same time teaching them what the standard pronunciation is in the dictionary. This will achieve your goal of educating the public and also celebrate the diversity in Hong Kong. You can see how everyone was excited to share their background and participate in your game until you started to criticise them... But alas i guess you’re not a “clever person in hong kong” either so you probably didn’t take the hint🤷🏻‍♀️

They should've politely asked a lot of questions to see if they are willing to participate in it first, and then ask them if they are willing that their video will be posted online into Youtube as well. I think 1) consent first, and then 2) editing creative cleverness....

on9.…...口音唔同姐.....

How about improving your weird intonation and accent before correcting others' accents or pronunciation?

@torres you are garbage mate

Mate, have you listened to your own accent? What a joke.

This is off, people do actually say the "wrong pronunciations"

American here. Go home, Lobster. You gonna grill Desis on Thousand next?

I’m not going to even comment on every single word on this list. For the first word “candidate”, according to at least Oxford dictionary, it can be pronounced either /ˈkændɪdət/ or /ˈkændɪdeɪt/. Stop imposing your own version of pronunciations on other people, thinking that you’re only one who’s correct.

The word cupboard too! A few of them pronounce it right!

Thank you. Americans pronounce Candidate the same way they were. This man is obviously only know British English and knows nothing about other English dialects and accents and arrogantly assumes British English is correct English and all other English are incorrect.

selling lingoda credites if anyone intrested in it plz contact me. I have bought way too much credits and I wanna sell them.

對我來講聽不出分別，當年英文老師都放棄我是正常的

識人好過識字呀, 老友. 🤦🏻‍♀️

最後條友講係to-may-to , 唔係to-Mah-to, 喺美式發音先至係咁講姐

WHAT😳 you don't know the pronunciations of women and you found someone with an American accent British person to teach you the pronunciation? BWAHAHAHAHAA🤣 well Hong Kong is multicultured and you should expect people having different accents😠 by the way search up Cambridge dictionary on Google to find pronunciations there's difference between the pronunciation of uk and us

This video is so cringe u clearly don’t understand different countries different accents

點解唔戴口罩？

women and candidate definitely have two ways to pronounce

Why would you make such stupid video? And not event fact checking the pronunciation before you correct other people? Shame on you.

It’s quite a nasty video, it’s judgemental people like you guys that makes people in HK afraid of even trying to speak English ! Who are you guys to judge anyway ? Awful...

I have to call you out. “Smartest people in Hong Kong can’t pronounce English words?!” is problematic for conflating fluency in English with general intelligence, which is in essence Eurocentric.

It’s so ironic that Georgia believed in the “teacher” from Bristol but not the old man, who is from England as well. Nice logic and choice of source :)

Oh come on you should give $500 to the aussie doctor he got it all right just because he thought it was dessert for the last one, you shouldve clarified with him.

I don't think it's necessarily wrong if people pronounce it based on how it is spelled.

Google 都讀錯 candidate 同 cupboard?

唔同地方唔同口音啫 點會話人wrong呀 真係晒人時間 challenge ？真係let it go啦

advert for lingoda ?

Excellent content! I really enjoyed viewing you guys haha so funny..

For anyone who does not know, Torres is a pro-Beijing youtuber.

愈黎愈On9，慢慢收皮吧，中國才是你的家，不是香港 ～

Wow was a douchy video....

Dude just because you don’t speak American English, doesnt mean it’s wrong

this video earned my dislike and report

I have to say something about the cupboard one. It’s not “cupbid” either - there is a bit of an “r” sound in the middle.

Stupid

This video content is so dumb. We all have different accent. There is no right and wrong here as long you understand each other.

CANNOT agree at all with the pronunciation of "Candidate" suggestion by the two hosts. And both US & UK pronunciation at yahoo.hk digital dictionary suggest pronunciation close to the glasses in suit man'. Why is the two hosts' pronunciation a right one when even the male host has his personally accent? Do they have PhD & massive English-teaching experience to show us that their own English are the only correct one??? They're nobody, just one blonde & a man who date blonde; that's it!!! And there's no way, people who watched this video would help you make anymore footage in the future when we see you on the street so that you can make money from YouTube!!

1:52 she uses the America accent , you shouldve told people to use the British accent

This video deserves a big thumb down

It’s better to shut this channel down Or I am waiting to watch your next vdo and judge someone’s English in UK or US.

Pls wear a mask instead of a face shied in the street.

Torres is racist

We need to mass report this video cuz it is completely fucked up.
