Are you the same person in another language? Why might you feel funnier, more confident or more reserved when you switch from Chinese to English—and do different words bring out different sides of you? Join Keiara, who is fluent in English and Chinese and holds a degree in law, for a lively discussion about our “language personalities”. We’ll explore how language can shape the way we express humour, experience emotions and present ourselves, drawing on scientific findings and our own experiences. Does speaking another language change who we are, or give us new ways to be ourselves?

Through personal sharing, playful comparisons and open conversation, we’ll consider what makes one language feel natural and another feel like stepping into a different identity. Is it vocabulary, cultural expectations, the people we speak with—or our confidence in being understood? Keiara brings warmth, energy and plenty of fun, making everyone feel part of the family. Whether you’re developing your English or already fluent, shy or outgoing, you’re welcome, and there’s no pressure to share anything personal. Expect laughter, surprising discoveries and a fresh perspective on the different versions of ourselves we bring into conversation.

换一种语言，你还是同一个人吗？为什么你从中文切到英文的时候，可能会觉得自己更搞笑、更自信，或者更放不开？不同的词，会不会带出你不同的面？跟着 Keiara 来聊一场热闹的讨论吧。她中英文都很流利，还有法律学位。这次我们聊“语言人格”。我们会结合一些科学发现和我们自己的经历，看看语言是怎么影响我们表达幽默、感受情绪和呈现自己的方式。说另一种语言，是改变了我们是谁，还是给了我们做自己的新方式？

通过个人分享、好玩的对比和开放的聊天，我们会想想，为什么一种语言说起来很自然，另一种却像走进了一个不同的身份。是词汇的问题，是文化期待，是跟你说话的人，还是你对自己能被听懂的信心？Keiara 会带来温暖、活力和很多乐趣，让每个人都觉得像在自己家一样。不管你是还在练英语，还是已经很流利，是内向还是外向，都欢迎来，也完全没有压力要分享任何私人的东西。会有笑声、意外的发现，还有一个全新的角度，看看我们在聊天里带出来的那些不同版本的自己。
