Awesome video and I love all your vids, but when trying to teach pronunciation the music is killing me. Can you please turn the music off at least during the parts when you are teaching pronunciation?
at first I was thinking the same thing yet I believes it helps because it makes me listen a little closer and I can hear thru the music just like if I were to be outside with other people talking , so it kind of trains you to concentrate on what is being said. So the familiar music should be easier to tune out
Thank you Benny for helping me out! I'm trying to improve my dialect before I meet "The Parents". The only thing I seem to have a problem with, is hearing you properly over the music. Think you could turn the Jackson 5 down just a bit?
Thank you sooo much. I have been dating my Chinese Girl Friend for two years now and I want to start talking Mandarin so I can propose. Benny you are a life saver! And your English is awesome so it helps with the teaching!
I'm Caucasian, and I love my Chinese girlfriend with all my heart. But I can't learn how to say "I love you" because of all the damn music in the background! Don't get me wrong, I love the Jackson 5, but turn the friggin stereo off!!
I've been studying english for many years but I'm? still bad at it,? so,i wanna find a friend who always speaks in english. and I can teach you chinese if you want... ^_^
you have to take that music out of the background. it is really disturbing.
Think of it this way.. learning Chinese for most english speaking people is going to be extremely difficult. Having that added attraction of Michael Jackson music in the background just serves to compound this difficulty.
I am teaching Chinese Mandarin on skype(id: roaming.gpiggy) for free,and I'v collected all of my friends who are learning Chinese on my QQ group(id: 119679521),They can get my lesson there everyday,and share their expeirences about learning Chinese.Welcome to join us!
I tried this in the China Pavillion in Epcot center with a really, really cute Chinese girl. As soon as I said it she looked surprised that I was speaking Mandarin, smiled, blushed, and said xie xie. It was the perfect opener for a conversation.
Hey . My name is Yang Yang, I will be going to the US. for my PhDon International Disaster prevention Issue from 2012. I worked as an University Chinese(Mandarin) and Martial art teacher for 3 years. I love Music, and cooking. I am eager to do Chinese English Exchange study. I am patient, funny and skillful with students. I could be your good partner. Please email me.
Haha, This guy is awesome, I always hang around with chinese people in my school, they are so funny, so different to the rest swedish people in my school....
you stupid fucking chinese person! don't you understand the background music destroys every attempt for people to learn this!! CUT THE DAMN BACKGROUND MUSIC!!!
I'm going to try this with a girl I like at work, but unfortunately I have to watch your video repeatedly and try my hardest to block out music i prefer not to hear. Why dont you play metal music over this to make it less coherent,. i might understand it better,. Uhggg
I like this video very much, but I find the background music a little distracting. I f the music was without the vocal singing while the chinese was being taught, I think it might be a bit clearer. It is still a good video though.
but i know white ppl who speak bad chinese makes them look really embarrassing and corny tho. those who can speak well now that's awesome since mandarin is hard to
how do you say: that's all I know in Chinese so please don't embarrass me by asking me any questions :) <--- 'qing3 bu4 yao4 ling4 wo3 jian4 jie4, wo3 ji3 shi4 ji1 dao4 zheng4 xie1 zong1 wen1.'...^^
Something about that girl. Does not seem shes into this at all. She looks to be in a rush to get the hell out of there. Lol. Nice video by the way. Thanks for clearing that up. Now I can go to China and make all the girls smile! WoOT Lol...
I like how you incorporated words from other lessons into your final skit at the end of this lesson. This helped organize all the bits in my brain. Xie Xie
I might be rong, but I think piao liang is beautiful when talking about people, and meili is more for describing things, such as artworks or a garden.
thAnk you man!Now I'm gonna learn mandarin,but it sounds hard to learn to speak(and write!¨)But I like this language cause there's a beautiful pronounciation and it's not a common language foreigner poeple learn.
So what is the protip to avoid such distinguishing like that?
This translation, is somehow approximate, because it is intended mainly for forgeiners. Also, for the people here to understand more clearly because "extremely" is somehow fitting than the less-impact "very" does.
I feel wrong for doing this....XD I know there is no need to but....
