    As a big Technology Connections fan, this one hits the spot.
  • @DesertBlaster
    as a Chinese speaker, your Chinese is actually quite good for a beginner, a lot of people have to use English substitutes for a lot of phrases even after years of learning, and you did not have any substitutions, which is impressive. Pronunciations of each words are quite clear, although not how we would say them because we use them too quickly that some sounds mashes into each other, but I appreciate the effort on each character. Good luck with learning one of the most difficult language.

    I saw similar things with Japanese typewriters in the 1980's but even those took advantage of modern-ish electronics. With katakana, romanji, and kanji it really became practical with computers. This is absolutely fascinating and something I've often wondered about.
  • It's really satisfying when you can somewhat understand and communicate with other people in their native tongue. Back in the 80s I learned German and Russian, when I was in the service. It was a definite blessing in my life.
  • Great topic. I love the opening, “I decided to learn Chinese”. Like a married man with four children doesn’t have enough to do. You’re amazing.
  • @Lardzor
    I'm disappointed you didn't start your test of the antique typewriter with: "Hello World".
  • @ddegn
    That was a lot of fun. Your Kiwico ads are often my favorite part of your videos. Your whole family is beautiful. Thanks for another great video.
  • @rhoula
    Unbelievable skills. Thank you so much Jeremy for taking the time to make these videos. I have been subscribed to your channel for a very long time. All my respect.
  • WOW! I always was curious about that too. Thank you for the presentation. Great work.
  • @balub778
    I've been learning japanese for about 4 years now and I went into a similar rabbit hole during the initial stage regarding how I was going to type kanji, it was good to get a small flashback to that time.
  • This guy is the best. He asks the questions people look at me like I'm a weirdo for asking. But I'm just curious and love to learn. VERY much appreciate your videos. Keep them coming!! 😄
  • Dude..... Been a while so figured I would stop by to check your channel out. So glad to see you going off in totally random and interesting directions. Anything you find interesting..... We're here for it.👍

    I am really happy that the YouTube algorithm suggested this video. This comment is mainly to feed it more. Great video about a very interesting topic. I really like your causal, friendly narration. Best wishes, Erik.
  • @mrlithium69

  • @Aiello_
    very fun and informative video aside, your relationship with the kids is so wholesome, if i ever become a father i hope i can provide my kids this much love and education
  • You have a nice team to help you with the projects at home. Good job.
  • @Rom3_29
    That’s fascinating. Learning a new language is very useful.
  • @allenrussell6135
    I had no idea about the "problem" and im beyond impressed with the solution. Thank you for the video and the free knowledge.
  • Love this video and it is really cool to see the challenges and solutions when making chinese typewriters, but I really want to point out how I'm really impressed with your Chinese speaking ability as an American Taiwanese!
