@ateeztxt99 I don't think you understand as a European why Americans refusing to learn how to pronounce ethnic Chinese names and throwing around all sorts of excuses not to is extremely racist to *us* and our experiences aren't the same at all actually.

@elevwan My students cant pronounce my name and I've taught them many many times and theyll double down on the wrong pronunciation. My coworkers also haven't bother learning it and in fact spelt my name wrong for 2 years. It would be unwise to call them racist for these reasons

People hating on her but I can understand. If a sound isnt in your language sometimes it will be impossible for you to ever hear it. Ive been an english teacher in korea for 5 years and my students cant say my name despite many attempts to teach them.

@wumujinki We’re not Chinese. And as an American, Chinese pronunciation is not natural to us just as our pronunciation of words isn’t natural to Chinese people and so they can’t pronounce a lot of our names correctly either. SYBAU

@ateeztxt99 It’s not racist to mispronounce a name. It’s racist to be told that you’re mispronouncing it and doubling down bc you don’t care and thinking having an accent means you don’t at least try
English

@ateeztxt99 But that’s not really what the original tweet is about + if you just can’t personally pronounce it bc of this and that factor then why are you mad and angry and calling ppl slurs pfft
