One of the members of a Kpop group was raised in Canada. She's frequently asked to speak English... she often has to affect a Korean accent in order to be understood.

韩国一流行女团成员是在加拿大长大的。她常被要求说英语....为了能让人听懂，她说时常不得不夹带韩国口音。

As a native English speaker I used to live in Latin America in a place where all the street names were in English. I feel her pain.
Trying to say "French avenue" like it was Spanish drove me mental. Cab drivers never understood me.

作为一名以英语为母语的人，我以前住在拉丁美洲一个所有街道上都用英语命名的地方。我懂她的苦。试着说“法国大道（French avenue）”就像西班牙语一样让我精神崩溃。出租车司机从来都不知道我在说什么。

There are a lot of Spanish street names in Los Angeles where people won't understand you if you pronounce them correctly. Sepulveda is a big one.

洛杉矶有很多街道是用西班牙语标识的，如果你发音正确，人们完全听不懂。赛普维达大道（Sepulveda）就是最好的例子。

Haha her tone makes her come off as if she's getting annoyed having to keep switching accents.

哈哈，她的语气使她表现的好像她因不得不不停转换口音而生气了。

When visiting Japan people definitely had an easier time understanding US cities and names if said with a bit of Japanese accent.
"Boston."
"... ...Austen?"
"Bo-sue-ton."
"Ahh Bosueton!"

去日本旅游时，如果说话带点日本口音，人们绝对更容易理解美国城市和地名。
“去波士顿。”
“... ...奥斯汀？”
“波-斯-蹬。”
“啊，波斯蹬（Bosueton）！”

Had a Japanese ESL roommate for four years and I always felt guilty when catching myself subconsciously phrasing things in broken English so he could readily understand me.

有一个非英语母语的日本室友四年了。当我发现自己下意识用蹩脚英语措辞这样他就能更容易理解我的意思时，我总觉得很内疚。

No need to feel guilty if you're just optimizing communication and not mocking him (and he doesn't feel mocked). I had a whole slew of Ukrainian in-laws for many years and I had to do the same thing with heavily accenting my English to be understood by some of them. It's fine.

如果你只是在优化沟通而不是嘲笑他（并且他也不觉得被嘲笑了），就不必感到内疚。多年来，我有很多来自乌克兰的姻亲，为了让他们中的一些人能理解我，我也会做同样的事，用有很重口音的英语同他们讲话。这没事的。

I agree it comes down to what the other person wants. With older people they don't really have a hope of perfecting their accent so it is just a pain. But I had a lot of exchange students in high school and college that appreciated small corrections at the right time and learning new words.

我同意，这最终都取决于另一个人想要什么。对老年人来说，他们完全不打算完善自己的口音，所以跟他们说话就是泪啊。但是我认识很多上高中和大学的交换生，他们能在适时的时候接受被纠正一些小错误以及学习新单词。

Can confirm. Just returned from Japan a few weeks ago and an interaction I specifically remember was asking for the check.
"Check please"
"Nani?"
"Uh Chekku kudasai"
"Ohhhhh"

能证实这点。几周前刚从日本回来，我尤记得就是结账的时候。
“（服务员），请结账。”
“纳尼？”
“嗯，请帮我结张（Chekku kudasai）”
“哦（我懂了）~”

Me too. Funny memory I was trying to learn what people normally say and looking it up in the dictionary (stuff like okanjou onegai shimasu) - but then I was at a bar and this drunk (Japanese) guy just goes and says 'chekku de' and that's all and I laughed because I went to all this effort and could have just tried saying 'chekku'.

我也是。有个趣事，我当时试着去了解人们通常怎么说，然后通过查阅字典学习。（像お勘定お愿いします（请结账）之类的，）——但后面我在一家酒吧（喝酒），有个醉鬼（日本人）只是说了句“chekku de”，就这样（结好账了）。我笑了出来，因为我做了那么多努力，结果只用努力说句“chekku”就行了。

It definitely feels weird to us but to them these words are effectively Japanese words (or Korean words or whatever) with the all the phonetic rules that go with their native language. Though they may be English in origin when the speakers learned them they learned them with all the rules from their language.

这对我们来说确实很奇怪，但是对他们来说，这些单词是有效的日语单词（或韩语单词还是其他），所有的语音规则都与其母语相符。虽然这些词汇可能是起源于英语，但习语者在学习这些词汇的时候会（不自觉）染上其母语的所有用法规则。

This story may be apocryphal so take it for what it's worth. A buddy of mine told me about an acquaintance of his Korean-American guy. For whatever reason this guy despite being an American citizen and under no obligation to do so decides to join the Korean Army.

这个故事可能是虚构的，但其也有讲的价值。我一朋友曾告诉我他跟一朝裔美国人是熟人。不知出于什么原因，这个人，尽管是美国公民也没有义务这样做，决定加入韩国军队。

Now this guy's Korean is pretty good and he can pass but he brings American attitude to a hyper hierarchical organization within an already hyper hierarchical culture. His superiors do not like him.
His drill sergeant calls him over points to something and asks him what it is.

这个人的韩语相当好，能自如交流，但在一个高度崇尚等级文化的极度重视等级的组织下，他所带的美国人的态度与之格格不入。他的上司很不喜欢他。训练他的教官叫他过来，指着某物，问他这是什么。

He answers in Korean:"Sir it's the..." with an American affectation "...Emergency Override."
Sergeant kicks him in the stomach. "E-MUH-JEHN-SSHI O-BEUH-RAH-I-DEUH YAH!"
Welcome to the army!

他用韩语回答：“报告教官，这是……”带着美国人装腔作势的口吻说“……紧急超越。”
教官踢了他肚子一脚。“是E-MUH-JEHN-SHI-O-Buuh RHi-i-Duh yay。”
欢迎来到军队！

哈哈哈哈，Imeojeonsi obeoraideu，这发音太好笑了。（就是故意用韩国口音讲了遍Emergency Override，那教官不爽人英语发音太准确）

The host Leeteuk from Super Junior asking her the questions works for the same record label as her. He is aware her (Wendy) group is Red Velvet and the song she is being asked about is called Russian Roulette. He is trolling her because it’s probably an inside joke at the company that the western born idols have to accent some words for them to be understood. This is all in fun because Amber (the girl in the middle of the first clip) loses her shit when Wendy says “wonderful world” in accented English and Amber was raised in the US.

那问问题的主持人是Super Junior里的利特（朴正洙），跟她是同一家公司的艺人。他知道Wendy是红色天鹅绒（Red Velvet）的成员，问她的那首歌叫《Russian Roulette（俄罗斯轮盘赌）》。他在故意打搅惹恼她，因为这可能是他们公司内部的笑话，那就是在西方出生长大的偶像说（英语）时必须得故意带上口音才能被听懂。这一切都很有趣，是因为Amber（在第一段视频剪辑中坐在中间的女孩）在Wendy用带口音的英语说“wonderful world”这两个词时笑得不能自已，且Amber是在美国长大的（所以懂要这么说英语的痛）。

Though tbf Leeteuk's English is very bad.

不过说句公道话，利特的英语很差的。

Yeah I'm a French guy leaving in Korea my name is Raphaël but Korean language doesn't have the R sound or the F sound. So now I am Lapael from Peulangsse.

是的，我是一个即将离开韩国的法国男人，我的名字是拉斐尔（Raphaël），但韩语中没有R音或F音。所以（在他们听来）我是来自Peulangsse的Lapael。

Oh god I love wendy so much. When her group (Red Velvet) released Rookie they pronounced it "lookie" in the song. I know it had to drive her crazy

哦，天哪，我太爱Wendy了。当她们团（红色天鹅绒）发表专辑《Rookie》，但大家都说成“lookie”时，我知道这一定把她给逼疯了。

A friend of mine is a doctor and he uses a fake accent when talking to philipino patient because they understand it better even if he doesn't speak their language. He did the same for Spanish too before he learned to speak it enough for patients. It's as much the simplified words as it is the accent. Saying "how are you today mrs Hernandez can you explain to me where the pain and how long it's been like that" does't work as well as "Senora where hurt?"

我一朋友是医生，他在跟来自菲律宾的病人交谈时会用假口音，因为这样即使他不会说菲律宾语，病人也能更好理解。在为病人将那门语言学到能交流的程度前，他对来自西班牙的病人也是这么做的。就是夹杂口音用最简单的词讲话。说“how are you today mrs Hernandez can you explain to me where the pain and how long it's been like that（赫尔南德斯女士，你今天感觉怎么样啊？你能跟我说明你哪里痛以及这样有多久了吗？）”不如说“Senora where hurt?（太太[西班牙语]，哪里痛啊？）”好用。

Yeah you can see when she gives up and just does the accent. Totally cute.

是的，你可以看到她干脆就放弃了，直接加上口音那么说话了。超可爱的。

This is part of why knetizens dont love wendy but part of why i adore her. She doesnt fit into the standard of typical english speaking koreans she isnt arrogant about her english nor does she play it up like most idols do.

这是韩国网友不爱孙承欢（Wendy）而我喜欢她的原因之一。她不符合韩国人说英语的那种标准，她对自己的英语水平也不傲慢，也不像大多数偶像那样放肆夸大。
