American Orders Indian Street Food in Bengali Language, Locals Stunned

like dislike the whole thing hey guys what's going on it's shama so today we're here in jackson heights in new york city which is like a very indian and particularly bangladeshi neighborhood now i find bengali the language of bangladesh and also parts of india to be a very interesting like language to learn despite being one of the most spoken languages in the world it doesn't really get too much like respect on on youtube or the internet not that many people really learn this language and i think that's a shame because uh it seems to have a really cool culture has always really fascinated me and i've known there's always been a lot of like bengali's here i'm out here to practice today so let's see what happens guys all right we're gonna start the day off trying some of this pond i honestly don't know what it is it seems to be like really popular in this neighborhood though it might be some kind of drug not really sure hey everybody all right real quick before we get back to the video just wanted to thank my wonderful sponsor braycon for for making these videos possible they've been a huge supporter of the channel and they're actually the earbuds that i wear all the time nowadays i like them for pretty much all occasions but they're especially good for you know just kind of like long nice walks like this because they're really small and convenient they slip right into your pocket and they're also super lightweight which also makes them really good when you exercise they're super easy to bring along wherever you go and the best part is as you can see right now they're they're really stable and they just fit in my ear like super super well they come in a ton of cool colors i usually wear the the red ones but um my wife actually has the blue ones which are a newer model she really likes them as well because the upgraded everyday earbuds which also come in a variety of colors actually fit even better and they also have a really nice customizable fit there's also a built-in mic which lets you take calls with just one press button another reason why i love these tiny powerful earbuds is just how long they last like you know i find myself having to charge them pretty rarely because with the included case they just keep lasting and lasting and lasting they have amazing sound while at the same time costing less than half of some of the other premium earbuds around so if you're interested in checking out these raycons make sure to go to the link in the description or go to buyreacon.com nyc to unlock up to 20 off on some really exclusive

there's something in this guys i'm getting a little bit of a little bit of a buzz i've never it was so nerve-wracking because like i've honestly never like tried to use bengali in like real life before but um okay they can understand what i'm saying that's a positive you know what i'm thinking now i'm thinking maybe like we try to up the ante a little bit and like i'm feeling kind of pumped from that from that pond whatever whatever was in it i want to like try to raise the difficulty level a little bit and um let's try getting some clothes are these uh shorts yeah oh what one piece of shorts oh pants oh like sweatpants all right and what about uh what about what are these ones for ladies okay ten [Laughter] no internet online online on the web website yeah oh don't know i don't know yeah but i think it's very good very tasty yeah very tasty thanks man thank you oh my youtube uh xiaoma shama nyc i think is very very difficult to learn it's it's hard yeah yeah yeah it is hard but i like i just think the culture is like so interesting i i feel like so many people speak it but not that many people would like learn it you know so i always wanted i was interested in it thank you very much oh thank thank you man thank you yeah it was nice to meet you nice to meet you yeah what do you think we also you know i've heard i've heard bengali sweets are good to try this out hopefully it's good [Music] that was delicious but i need to get some actual food here hey how you doing what kind of food is this vegetarian food oh wow i mean i'll try it okay never bengali food first time wow look at that oh my goodness smells very nice a little bit spicy for me it's very spicy it was good though so good you're ridiculous you can't stop eating it delicious very spicy but good damn guys you know what it's always the coolest thing when like there's like a culture you've never experienced before and that you know nothing about and then all of a sudden like you can come here and you know experience a little bit you know and i think that's like one of the magic things about language learning is like you know you didn't even really have to to know how to say that much but it like instantly creates that bond there and i don't know i just think it's like really an irreplaceable experience [Music]

That's how white people react when I go to KFC and order in perfect English.

I can’t stand this guy. All his videos feel like it’s just him showing off waiting for people to react to tell him how impressed they are with him.

[u/niketyname]

I actually enjoy his series, some of it isn’t accurate but I like seeing the process of him learning languages.

Can you imagine an Indian guy getting praise for speaking e.g. Swedish and a video going viral as a result? This is just white worship, when white people do things that people from minority communities have had to do for the past fifty years it's seen in a different light because certain minorities crave white approval of their communities

[u/missderacine]

You guys are so negative lol

[u/ratparty5000]

This is so cool! He speaks it quite nicely too, I really like how he used কোকোনো when he spoke. Bangla is such a beautiful language and I look forward to it being more popularised to learn. It's also really exciting to see how Bengali speaking diaspora has made a place for itself in New York.

[u/weallcomefromaway3]

I really like this guy, he makes a real effort to learn lots of different languages and goes out to practice. His Bangla is pretty good

My friend owns a translation company and hates xiamoa or whatever his name is. He says a lot of his stuff is fake. I don't really know
