Some Taiwanese people come to mainland to work usually adapt the Introverted but willing to discuss plants shirt Furthermore, I will do this mainland accent and will take back to Taiwan cause they think that’s cool and sophisticated. Meanwhile, some people in Taiwan still do not like the mainland accent, especially among older local populations from the countryside in the south. The mainland accent is viewed aggressive , harsh and unpleasant. They simply don’t like the way mainlander speaks. It may be the case that some American thinks British RP is posh while others think it’s funny. In Taiwanese entertainment industry, many singers and actors have ABC background and they are usually bilingual. Having said that , they still speak mandarin with strong English accent and that seem to be very cool to locals. Lots of Taiwanese local singers tried to do the ABC accent when singing, even they do not have the background. Rumor has that if you speak with ABC accent in night clubs, it’s way easier for you to have girls going out with you, but I personally don’t know. I guess there’s still people do not like the ABC accent, thinking it’s fake or exaggerated or funny, but majority of people here welcome the accent more than hate it. I’m sure there are also other Mandarin accents such as Malaysian/Singaporean, Thai , Indonesian, the Philippines, Japanese , Korean, Vietnamese, etc.
