I know you were born here, but you then went back to Taiwan and were raised there as a child, right?
So, do you speak English with a Chinese accent? Or did you learn English more as a 'first' language?

If she was born here and her early years in Taiwan, she probably has a Chinese accent.
She was sort of vague with the timeline, so that's why I was wondering. However, her written English appears top notch, which leads me to believe that English could possibly be first language?

I recall Fash posting that she can speak four languages to varying degrees.

The fuck has that to do with you?
You were born in Canada, but you talk like a dick.
Why don't you just stop ruining every fucking thread with your childish fucking bullshit, and leave the thread alone for Fash to answer the question, if she so prefers.
Idiot.
I dunno...maybe your inane and racist post brings out the worst in me.
Maybe I just find you contemptible.
Or all of the above.
Sorry, Brick, but I ain't got no time for your juvenile bullshit! It grew old many years ago.
Please try to keep your juvenile spam in the Retard Rodeo sub-forum where it belongs.

A lot of people in this country talk like dicks. All of our politicians.
Ah. I stand corrected.

I couldn't speak a word of English until I was five years old..
I use English at home because my husband can't speak Chinese.
So you do have a Chinese accent when speaking English then?
And you use English at home for husband only? Are your kids fluent in Mandarin (or whatever) then?

I have heard people say the odd word one may detect an accent..
Yes, I use English at home as a courtesy to my husband..
If I had married a Taiwanese/Chinese man, I would use either Taiwanese(my first language) or Mandarin(my second language) at home..
My children can speak intermediate level Mandarin and very little Taiwanese..
It's different in Shen Li's house even though her husband does not speak Chinese either..
Her mother lives with her and her two sons are exposed to Chinese all the time.
OK... So there is just an ever so slight accent present whilst speaking English then. Just something I've been curious about, that's all. I didn't think you spoke Chinglish, but I just wanted to be sure.
You've been more than accommodating with the answers to my questions. Danke!

Glad to answer them.
My old lady has an obvious accent. I like it.

Of course she does! People like you and Munday generally have to settle for Fresh of the Boats... :icon_wink:

My old lady is hot, educated, makes money and horny as a toad. What's not to love.
Maybe one day I'll pick me up an Asian too. I've never owned one before, but I'm willing to try almost anything once...
And since half of Vancouver is god damned Asian, this is a reality that I may have to accept...

Not much different than owning a white gal other than they earn more and don't depreciate as fast.
True.
I wonder if Fash and her kids make fun of us Gweilo while out in public, speaking Mandarin? Probably, and we wouldn't even know it...

She is a good girl. Shen Li maybe, but not Fash.
No doubt Chum Li does. I can just imagine...

I don't mind that kid either.

We say laowai, and no we do not make fun of strangers.
