            Not in the implied intonation. Chinese is a language where tone matters. So something like “hey” and “heyyyyyyyy” would be different words.

                Pronunciation includes tone. I suppose you could say that that’s the basis for the sound

              This is true in all Chinese languages when spoken normally but Mandarin (unlike Cantonese) ignores tone in singing. Pretty sure the name is Mandarin

                When people say Chinese, it’s almost implied to be Mandarin. You are correct in both singing and that I was referring to mandarin. Technically mandarin and canto are both dialects of Chinese. Mandarin is just the official dialect

                  And since the post was about singing, your whole argument is flawed. Checkmate atheist

        The worst part is not only he was born before those were offensive, but his last name wasn’t even meant to be hitler, it was a weird misspelling of hiedler or something similar.

          it’s so much stupider, Adolf Hitler was the one with the misspelled name. his dad wanted to adopt his own stepfather’s family name, and misspelled it on the form.

        The town he was in, Pickaway County, Ohio, has several things named Hitler something or other. All of them are related to this guys family, not the other one.
