someone who speaks mandarin...can you explain why that girl sounds so strange....

Why would you say she sounds strange? I wouldn't even necessarily say "it's because she's using a presenter voice". Although she is, it's more so an "explanation" or "emphasis" tone to her voice.

My Chinese friends talk like that literally all the time, and some of my female friends have a similar voice to hers. Pretty much sounds exactly like what I hear on a daily basis...

She is spitting out those tones, most of my Chinese friends and/or random chinese I hear sounds like Ian did, where tones more or less blend down into each other while the sentences have much smoother transitions between each other, she sounded like there was a period between each word she used AND amplified the tones.


This is how it sounds whenever I hear announcements in Chinese, like for example on a plane or if you listen to the news readers.

I think because technically, that's the most correct way to pronounce stuff in a vacuum. In practice, when conversing you'll naturally blur the tones a bit to make stuff flow.

They invited 2 Terrans and 2 Zergs. They qualified the top 8 Taiwanese players over the course of the year in TeSL. They then held qualifiers, in which Leenock, Departure, Pet, and TRUE won seeds in the tournament.


Still, they should have expected zergs to qualify since it's taiwan we're talking about...

I remember hearing a comedian do a whole bit on how English speakers have reduced the question "Do you know what I mean?" to "Naa-mean?"

That's usually how I lose ZvZ. I go in with this awesome nydus/mass queen swarm hosts build I'm gonna totally destroy someone with, and then suddenly my base is full of lings, and then I make things, and then I lose-
