撒嬌 Sājiāo

I can’t explain this, but this is a very particular term in Taiwan and doesn’t seem to have an equivalent term in English. The closest definition that I can come up with – to act/speak/cuddle in a soft and sweet manner. Jackie and I have been teaching Mckayla to 撒嬌 or actually in Taiwanese (it sounds like “sainei”). Maybe it’ll make more sense if you watch this video.
