Cmon dudes...you need to work on your tones a whole lot more. Also, why would you ask someone how they are doing right after you ran into them? You would say sorry... Or in pinyin, duibuqi
it's really difficult to understand Chinese with English tones :) English tones are very lazy by comparison... I think because of the tones it was very hard to understand what they said
umm you're not being serious right? how could you advise someone to use "Taiwanese pronounciation"? Chinese never originated from Taiwan, "taiwanese pronounciation" isn't even proper pronounciation! Just because THEY can't pronounce the "h" sound in Chinese, doesn't mean foreigners should also learn the wrong accent!
Hi, guys, you are good! And keep up the work. I'm a native Mandarin speaker. I think your intonation is very cute. That's what I always feel when native English speakers speak Mandarin with an English intonation. It's just cute! I feel joyful when I watch your video. Good for you!
Do you guys use Integrated Chinese, Level 1, Part one, Second Edition, by Tao-Chung and Yuehua Liu.. with all the blue, black and white text? With xiao Gao, and all that stuff? Because everything in this video is like.. word for word what we've learned from the book..
wow! ahhaha u dont need to work on ur tones.. theyre perfect! ;-). And in the begining, u guys sed "what are you" ahaha is supposed to be 您是誰... ni3 shuh1 say2

Actually, I can understand your Chinese.
The sounds are not bad, but some content of the conversation is not authentic enough.
Good luck.

"Extremely fluent" would be incorrect, you didn't use tones correctly lol. All of them were in the first tone LOL!

English tones are lazy because English is not a tonal language. It took me 3 years in China to get tones down.

yeah you are right.
listen everyone, you should learn how to speak with a beijing accent so you can sound like an idiot chewing on your own tongue.
props to those who can twist their tongues to speak in impossibly annoying, rocket fast speeds.

他們學中文不容易,我覺得多點鼓勵比較好。不要用母語人士的高標準來責備學中文的外國人好嗎?希望外國人學中文都能讓他們感受到我們華人的熱情與友善,不要把他們嚇到了。華人的世界很容易用負面的角度看事情,英文的世界則常常能鼓勵人、讚美別人,我們華人世界是不是也可以留這樣的美名給西方人士記憶在心中呢?請所有的華人多多思考這個問題。
