This is cool. Foreigners speaking Mandarin is like nothing new these days. Even that elevator dude in the empire state building surprised me with a few phrases. However, Shanghainese! Are you kidding me? Now this shows dedication. It's like if I want to learn Spanish, the last thing I would think about is how to speak Catalan.

I'm Chinese and I can't understand damn Shanghainese. Kudos to her learning that whacked dialect.

This young foreign lady speaks shanghainese decently well, not perfectly but better than most chinese who are not native shanghainese. Shanghai dialect is not easy to speak and understand well even for a chinese who is not grown up in Shanghai.

Omg... it does sound so much like Japanese =/.

Hahaha I wish I knew Mandarin... I'm half white half chinese and my mom spoke Shanghainese to me as a child so it's the only chinese dialect I know! People make fun of me for not knowing Mandarin, however I do understand parts....Trying to learn mandarin though :P

@hyatt2005 Very true. Shanghainese is a dialect, Beijing has another dialect, Guangdong has their own(Cantonese), Taiwanese, Mandarin, and more. So many Chinese dialects. Any foreigner learning any dialect is very dedicated...Doesn't matter what dialect it is.
