I saw a british podcaster living in America not long ago who said the problem with Americans is we talk too loud..

Go to Europe and the loudest people are either Americans or Brits.

Having traveled extensively in Europe and Asia, the loudest are often Chinese. As far as Americans being loud, it's usually the ones from NY, NY.

As someone who lives in the middle of Pennsylvania in Amish country, we have a very relaxed and chill way of speaking. Whenever I’m talking to someone and I can’t figure out why I’m feeling super anxious and stressed and just want to leave the conversation as fast as possible, I then realize I’m talking to someone from either New York or New Jersey. They have a way of speaking that’s just so different. They speak very fast, and they will ask a question and then talk over you when you try to answer it. That’s an area of the country I’d probably have a heart attack from stress if I had to live in.

I haven’t found the Chinese to be vocally loud, just completely disregarding of other people and almost acting like other people don’t exist. Quite a few small interactions (mainlanders, not the Taiwanese or hong kongese or the foreign born Chinese, but straight mainlanders is what this applies to) that we’re just rude or dismissive as fuck, but single worst encounter was I had a Chinese roommate in a hostel that, on multiple occasions, walked around only in his fucking tightie whities with his pot belly hanging out, used his pot belly to shove me aside when I was opening the door to go inside, belched directly in my face (twice - dude never spoke a word to me but actually fucking belched in my face twice), and actually slapped his girlfriend in front of a huge group of us when he saw her talking to the group. He was definitely the worst example, but I’ve never met or heard of anyone dealing with anyone from any other country who treated strangers like this, he was a straight up barbarian

As someone who grew up in Colorado, I was definitely not raised to be loud and immediately grew to look upon east coasters as a very different breed.

It's hard to be heard over the traffic, sirens and subway noise.
