I think that ontological slippage means how we understand things, and this shows up when I was explaining how I understood the Yingelishi and why. #hwa4 #ontologicalslippage


This changes how I think of media because to me, media is social media, images, and short messages. It was never really about experience, so now I feel like anything can be media. #hwa4 #yingelishi


As a listener or reader, I think my role here is to simply listen to it, rather than trying to understand it. #hwa4 #yingelishi


It is written as a poem, as I read in Yinglish; however, it also sounds like a language lesson to Chinese speakers who don't know English. It allows those who speak Chinese to learn how English words are pronounced. #hwa4 #yingelishi


I believe that sound and language are being translated here because the English doesn't really make sense when you look at the Chinese translation, so it forces you to listen and feel the music or "poem" #hwa4 #yingelishi


I do believe that something can mean something if it doesn't make sense, because let's take art, for example, a picture may look like nonsense to someone who is not into art, but behind every painting there is a meaning, even if you can't see it. #hwa4 #yingelishi


At that 9-minute mark, pretty much that whole section made me think This is pretty much nonsense, because it wasn't even sounding like English words to me. #hwa4 #yingelishi


I don't feel like this is meant for me. I feel like people who speak Chinese would understand the meaning of this better, like they would feel the importance. #hwa4 #yingelishi


Throughout, I kept thinking about how I carry English and Punjabi in my daily life, and how they mix with each other. But it definitely affects my grandparents more, because they are not so fluent in English. #hwa4 #yingelishi


As I was listening to it, I was trying to speak along, but sometimes the way I would say it would sound different. #hwa4 #yingelishi
