I’m not particularly good at doing a wide range of Asian accents as you can tell from my videos; but if I was, could you tell them apart? Can YOU tell Asian accents apart? Or...do they all sound like "ching chong chang" to you? As racially insensitive that may have been, there are still many people who have that perception of Asian accents. On the other end, there are people who feel confident at telling Asian accents apart. Mostly Asians. Anyway, whether you’re an Asian accent novice or an Asian accent expert, here is a test to see just how familiar you REALLY are at Asian accents. I’ll play 19 short audio clips of 19 Asian accents corresponding to 19 Asian countries. If you want to test yourself, listen to the accents, note down which country you think the accent is from, and at the end of this video, I’ll tell you the answers. Bonus points if you can figure out whose voice it is. Most of them are famous. Ok. So, here we go! In no particular order, here are the 19 Asian countries / regions I cover: - Japan - South Korea - Vietnam - Malaysia - Nepal - Mongolia - China - Thailand - Hong Kong / Southern China - Cambodia - Singapore - Afghanistan - Pakistan - North Korea - Indonesia - India - Sri Lanka - Taiwan - Philippines * Hong Kong is not a country but have distinct enough accents so I included them. Same can be said about Taiwan if we're going by UN-recognized countries. *EDIT: I screwed up the Nepal one, sorry guys :( In my opinion, if you got over 10 right, I think you did pretty well. If you got less than six, you’re probably not Asian. If you got close to 19, that's pretty impressive. Let us know what you got down below, and mention if you’re Asian or not! ----------------------- SUBSCRIBE TO KENTO BENTO ► Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/kentobento ► Second Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/KentoBentoChill (personal) FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/kentobento2015 ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kentobento2015 BUSINESS EMAIL ► kentobento2015@gmail.com TEAM KENTO BENTO ► Script, Narration & Editing by Kento Bento ► Artwork by Nina Bento ► Interested in working with us?
