I used to be an English teacher in china for first and second graders, and when one of my students took out a toy during class, I was trying to take it away, but he was putting up a fight.  The other students shouted, "老師（teacher） 加油“

[alexandril]

2:32 that's Taiwan! Hmm, I am sure that was done deliberately

hi sorry i have a question about the zhongguo, the one that means china. you pronounced the final: guo as in the english "g waah" but in one of my books the final -uo is pronounced as in english "woaah (well sorta)" . does the consanant "g" in guo change the way the final -uo sound????

[economistBR]

Great, thank you so much for taking the time to explain the pronounciation.

[SylvanMedia]

Locke, Rachel and I are in the same class! thats great, John is a good teacher, he makes Chinese really fun as he is just as animated in real life.

When I signed up for Chinese I expected it to be the most grueling class, ironic that it turned out to be the most fun.

[Locke577]

I'm the boyfriend of one of John's students. I think you guys are really great. I can't wait to meet you. Say hi to Rachel Feltman for me.

[dingzpatra]

[oceansof]

I would seriously consider learning Chinese if I had a whole set of beginners Chinese from you guys. It seems like THE most complicated language (and I know, it probably isn't and everyone says English is) because...there's no letters. It's like shorthand meets calligraphy and seems so overwhelming. Anyway, thanks for posting these! It's interesting. I didn't know China came up with an 'official' cheer. Sounds kind of strange to me, but then all the other past host countries probably did, too.

[siskandrov]

hehe blues clues much?

[ThadMemphis]

Okay, this is your masterpiece.

[GEYURI]

I was at the Olympics and during the opening ceremony, I watched from outside the stadium. One person would shout something like "zhong guo!" or "ao yun!" and everyone would respond with "jia you".

One Russian guy thought it was funny how people where cheering, so he decided to lead the cheer. He stared with "zhong guo!" but then started shouting "Russia!" and the Chinese still responded with "jia you!

So funny how they were so pumped up that they didn't know what "Russia" means.

[SimiLin1987]

i bet ppl know what "Russia" means but they still said "jiayou" thats becasue they are host.

[MAguy30]

Nippon jiayou! US Jiayou! :) LOL...these guys are such a cute couple...if they are a couple.

[dianag825]

LOL

[delightfullyinsane1]

Michael Phelps Jiayou!

[masaruex]

Michael Phelps already manyou...(oil too full...)

Phelps pro !!

[falsifian]

Successfully applied in Qingdao. Canada jiayou!

[VictoryZoner]

LOVE IT!! Here's a thought. Have the Chinese guy speak in Chinese and dub himself over in English. I thought of this when there was a spot where the sound track was off and I was not sure if that was intentional. I would die laughing if that was the case.

[joezhangjiyao]

i don't know why they are promoting this cheer, personaly i think it's so gay, and i don't know why i came up with the idea that this cheer is developed from Korea. correct me if i were wrong.

[sheridanliu]

If 1.3 billion Chinese insist on a "gay" cheer, one ought not to blame the peace-loving, sadly divided Korean people for that. Besides, "gay" isn't such a bad thing. Wouldn't it help with population control? Cheer up! Jiayou!

[joezhangjiyao]

I meaned no offense to Korean people,i just think we should be more creative on that for the whole world is watching us.

[kkgemini86]

So instead of being offensive to Korean ppl, you choose to be offensive to homosexuals??? We're human too, asshole! So don't try to be all about peace unless you actually mean it... UTTERLY.

[mrparts]

LOL WTH??? LOL

[weidyli]
