It is not the guy (me) who's Hakka, it's the two girls. I'm speaking Portuguese, they're speaking Hakka. The Scots, the English, the Irish, a part of the Indians, the Australians, the Americans, they all speak English with different accents and some words are used only in specific places. Hakka as spoken in Taiwan is not exactly the same as in RPC in Moyen (Mexian) or in Dabu. The East Timorese Hakka Chinese came from different parts of mainland China and use loanwords from local languages too.

Interesting video. I'm hakka but I would not know what they were saying if I heard it without actually knowing they're Hakka. If I listen closely I can understand some of it. The accent sounds funny, almost like a Cantonese trying to speak Hakka. Because of the migrations by the Hakka it is a given the Hakka dialect will shift from its original form especially those that relocate to locations where the common language is not a Han chinese dialect
i think there is two types of hakka laugs. A hakka that is simular to cantoninese(sorry about the spelling) and a hakka the people in east timor use (in this vid).
why do i understand this? i speak a bit of hk hakka but i only understand the ngai ho, nee ho, gnai mo- but its gnai maow so this might not b hk hakka
