Viewers of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg's latest video may have all eyes on daughter Max, but if they listen they will hear him speak Mandarin.
The social networking site's co-founder took to Facebook Saturday to post a new video[1]with wife Priscilla Chan and daughter Max, who is now nearly three months old.
Zuckerberg and Chan wished viewers a Happy Lunar New Year -- in Mandarin with subtitles -- and Zuckerberg detailed how Facebook celebrated the holiday, which falls on Feb. 8, with several chefs from China preparing cuisine. The family had a reunion, too, they said, as Max, dressed in vibrant red, got some closeup time and later let out a cute yawn.
The couple also announced Max's Chinese name: Chen Mingyu. And Chan wished viewers "from our little family to yours ... health and prosperity in the New Monkey Year!"
Zuckerberg finished the video by asking Max if "You think my Chinese is bad?"
