This is exactly what I need right now, you are amazing Shuo. Thank you! I've been looking for a resource like this for a long time

This is fantastic. Thank you for making this follow up to my favorite video!

Thank you for your VERY clear pronunciation! It really helps me learn how to say certain words, and also makes it MUCH easier to follow what you are saying. ❤❤❤

Amazing class! Wow. Thank you so much! You’re an exciting and easy to understand teacher!🤠

Gracias, Shuo, esta forma de presentar frases/comunicaciones cotidianas es muy apropiada y ayuda a mejor memorizarlas. Buen trabajo!

Thank you for making it so easy to learn.

This video is amazing, i hope you can continue this and make into a series, thanks so much for your work❤

Thank you, these videos are great as my listening comprehension needs a lot of work.

That's such great content!谢谢老师❤

Thank you a lot! I want to add that I like the font of Chinese characters you used in the video and the overall layout of the content. I am struggling to remember characters, but here it makes me look exactly at characters, not to pinyin or English translation. 🎉

I love these types of lessons, great content.

Thank you! I stuck these in Anki, and they are really helping me!

This is so helpful! I especially like the phrases for conversations over Zoom: 你卡了 was a new one for me. I attend a weekly Chinese conversation online meetup, so these will come in very handy. 谢谢啊！

You had a simple but important realization. I've met people who studied chinese for years and they still tried talking in slow motion: JUUUUUUST LIKEEEEEEEEE THIIIIIIIIIIIS. And that was even worse for others to understand them.

Fantastic job Keep up the great work Very helpful indeed

Very good...Thanks...love it

这部影片非常有帮助的,辛苦妳了

Thank you very much , for your great teaching videos !!! 😊😊😊

Thank you

Thank you for these videos. It's crazy to me that when the sentences are slowed down. Repeating them back is far more harded for me then when their at normal pace.

Thank you teacher! By the way, love your new hairstyle 💇‍♀️

Some words sound *so* different when it’s at normal speed, I think trying to slow down and make sure I pronounce every tone is almost hurting my ability to sound native ironically

Great, another amazing and useful video! 🤓

Excelente video, Shuo, ¡gracias! Sos una genia. :)

THANK YOU!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤Need more videos like this!!!! Ura, tovaritsch! 😁

Much appreciated. I'm an entry level HSK2. This gives me a break.

Ok this was an amazing video. We get to hear things at top speed so we can get used to it and slowly understand. Funny enough I’ve never heard Malaysian Chinese speak at this speed. Perhaps if we can understand this speed we can understand anything hehehe

I hope u will do this kinda video alot🎉❤

This exercise is a pearl. By memorizing these sentences, we're definitely going to impress our native Mandarin speakers, mainly when we say sentence number 9 fast: I can't speak a single sentence 😂 Thank you!

Hahaha because I use it A LOT!!

I started on 3rd May and am planning to continue every day for at least a week. It was really hard for me, let's see how it'll go. I'm hopeful

Im putting the sentences in Google Translate...it makes an accessible source to practise on...the Google voice is a bit slower but you can mentally speed it up .

You are right, speed of natural speaker is a great Problem for novices of a language. I was not good at speaking France language in the cool …… but of school expedition to France i was one of the class who get nearly everything organized. The Reason for that was one Sentence i called the people to speak slow and with stop between the words. And Special the stops are really important …… for me …… i think also for other, because to ask people to speak slow was a common not so successful idea. So i suggest an update to "Speak …… slow …… with …… stops …… please" may an important improvement. The "…" stands for the stops so the speaker can show how slow is needed for his brain. Looks to me France Language is quite easy in relation to Chinese Language …… well maby i am in between decades older ……

is there a way to brute force ear learning? like could one listen to an audio over and over until it makes sense? would a method like that actually work? or it would just work for a specific audio an no other real sound pattern recognition would build up in the brain?

I think you are right. I think the sentence-final 了 implies that the action is ongoing. In English, we could add: "as of now". Without the sentence-final 了, it could mean that the situation was in the past, and no longer applies.

For sentence 36. Why is it "是多少" and not "是什么"? I thought that 多少 was only for quantities and numbers. Is 多少 used for all passwords, or just certain ones that have a history of being numeric?

@ShuoshuoChinese

Ай бұрын

You can also use “多少”, this is a good example to show that native speakers don’t always follow the rules😄

@mountaintag

Ай бұрын

When asking for a number that is a designation rather than an amount, in English we ask "what". But Chinese does not use 什么 here. Chinese uses 多少. For example: "What is your room number?" = 你的房间号是多少？

要写下来，也要练习练习听见

No. 9 is: 我一句话都不会说 "I can''t speak a single sentence" … Although 句 means "sentence", in this kind of context, we usually say "word". Also, 不会 can mean "can't" ("unable") or it can mean "won't" ("will not" in future). So, perhaps the sentence is: "I won't say a single word". We often use this with the meaning: "Your secret is safe with me" or "My lips are sealed" … A similar sentence could be: 我一句中文都不会说 "I can't speak a single word of Chinese"

谢谢老师！ 我是加州人。我的妻子是湖北人. Can you make versions with no English speaking? The printed English is enough for us native English speakers. We do not need to hear any English at all. I find the pinyin distracting as it is not there in real life! Your voice is enough to get a sense of the tones. My wife told me tonight to focus only on 普通话 and not 湖北话。 writing characters is mandatory !

@ChineseDramaAddict

Ай бұрын

Someone in another video with 50 sentences said that he wants the english to be spoken, so no matter what she does there are always complaints😆 Also without pinyin is hard for beginners to read the characters, i think is for intermediate level at least, well if you write the characters you may learn faster, for example i learned to read and listen till now just from memorising the words without writing them (a little over 1000). The harderst part is to write them, but you can do fine without knowing.

I do understand the obstacles dont.

Please. Contenued to teachers us to speaks. Chines. Thanks

👍🎉👏

This is really good practice but personally I would find it more useful if you did it the other way round. Fast first, then slower, with the English translation last. That way I could really be sure if I understood it first time. Doing the English first, I’m not quite sure if I understood it completely or just because you had already told me what it meant.

Nice idea, but it would be better if you just spoke the chinese full tilt, and had the translations and hanzi/pinyin on the screen.

@bonbonpony No in talking fast tones are really all that’s important, most times you can hear something weird but if you slow her down the tone is correct. You have to learn to hear for subtlety in tone variation.

Ай бұрын

I believe your sentences are correct. (But the first 妈 should be 吗, of course.) However, I think the teacher's examples are probably more natural, using 可以 instead of the 得-structure.

But I have been to China. Would I just take the mei out of number 8?

@BlaiseSerra

20 күн бұрын

从来 is basically “up to this point” or “so far.” So the sentence literally translates to “So far I have not been to China.” If you want to say the opposite, it would be a little strange to say “Up until this moment, I have been to China.” Instead you can cut out the 从来 and the 没有 and just say “我去过中国”

I would love if you said the sentence twice slowly then once fast :/

Does 你卡了 mean you’re frozen as in literally cold or a cold hearted person?
