我畀嘅觀察標準:
1. 佢哋有冇傳承到本族嘅文化?傳承程度有幾多?
2. 佢哋對本族嘅來源國家有冇認同?
以下先黐d蒐集到嘅資料

Michelle Lee:
What is your ethnicity?
Gemma Chan:
I'm Chinese.
Gemma Chan:
My mom was born in China, and she grew up in Scotland. And my dad was born in Macau. He grew up in Hong Kong. Then he had a kind of crazy life before he settled down and had kids and married my mom. But he ended up going to college in Scotland, where he met my mom. And then they moved down to London and had my sister and I.
Gemma Chan:
So, yeah, it's Chinese both sides.
Michelle Lee:
Do you feel like growing up, did you have an either traditional British upbringing or do you feel like you had a traditional Asian upbringing or was it a mix of everything?
Gemma Chan:
I think it was a real mix. I mean, I definitely feel...very English, very British. But also, there were elements of my upbringing that were very, very Chinese as well. You know, my mom and dad, they spoke both Cantonese and English to me at home until I was three years old, and then they decided to only speak English to me. So my Cantonese is developed — well, basically stunted its development at the age of a three-year-old.
Michelle Lee:
(laughing)
Gemma Chan:
So I've got really very [laughs] basic, childish Cantonese. But yeah, I went to Chinese school when I was younger. My mom — I didn't want to go, but my mom and dad made me go every Sunday to learn how to write.
Michelle Lee:
Do you still remember how to write?
Gemma Chan:
I remember like the odd ... I can write my name, my Chinese name. I can write "tree" — uh, I think. (laughing) But it's quite hard. If you don't use it all the time, it's very difficult to retain it. But yeah, I definitely feel like I've grown up between worlds, really. And it's taken me some time to kind of feel, you know, completely at ease with that. I feel like I embrace that now. I very much want to explore. Since, basically since I've come out of my teenage years, I'm really interested in exploring my cultural heritage. And I really feel what's happening in the world is really exciting now. I feel that we really can embrace the fact, you know, all of us who are living in the Asian diaspora, we can embrace being American and British, but also our Asian roots.
