xQc explains how English learned in games got him in trouble at school Twitch streamer Felix \u2018xQc\u2019 Lengyel has revealed that the English he learned playing video games got him into heaps of trouble at school. While talking with fellow streamer HasanAbi, who was observing the federal Canadian election results, xQc was asked when he first started learning English. \u201cI learned a lot from Zelda, Halo, and games,\u201d the French Canadian replied. \u201cMost games that are based on narratives and dialogues, you can\u2019t progress in them if you don\u2019t know how to speak English.\u201d 600This stunned Hassan, who followed up by asking if the former Overwatch League pro learned any English in school. xQc then explained that he was taught very basic English and not enough to get by whatsoever. \u201cYou know like: \u2018the bird is red, I will walk\u2019,\u201d Felix recalled some phrases he had memorized from way back when. He then explained how he had no mastery of the language let alone complete sentences. Can\u2019t see the clip below on mobile?

Online I\u2019d get bullied, right? Cause people would be like: \u2018oh broken English, dude.\u2019 And they\u2019d make fun of my broken English. It made me want to be better.\u201d Can\u2019t see the clip below on mobile?

In fact, some of it would get him into trouble. \u201cLearning English online isn\u2019t the best, right? Because I would bring it to school. And then they would ask me to write things down,\u201d he said before pondering for a bit before seemingly remembering what was probably a game of capture the flag in gym class. xQc said he would say: \u201cget the flag, b***h\u201d and \u201cf**k you\u201d, but didn\u2019t know what the words meant. \u201cTeachers would be like, \u2018dude, that\u2019s a very bad word. Don\u2019t say that\u2019.\u201d Hasan, who is a political pundit for left-leaning YouTube news program The Young Turks, started cracking up at how xQc learned English in gamer lobbies. It\u2019s possible that xQc\u2019s online English lessons help gift the internet with one of the most entertaining streamers on Twitch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
