[miltownkid]

@MrAlecksTv I should do a video titled "How to say: "What the fuck is juice" in Mandarin. ;) lol

@getsmartpaul I've started a new session of Chinese language teaching. I just put a new video up today and will be putting up new videos each week. The current one is an introduction to pinyin. Check it out (no profanity in that one :) ).

你好。我高興得不得了，因爲看完了你的視頻。我很高興像我一樣的­人也學漢語（我也是黑人）。你學了十年的漢語，真厲害！我學漢語­學了差不多四年了（我主修漢語）。我的理想是再去中國做翻譯。你­爲什麽學習漢語？你覺得漢語容易學嗎？我有時很孤獨，因爲除了我­見過的一個人，我認識的黑人一點兒中文都不會（對了，我的漢語老­師幾乎都是北京人，所以我帶有北京口音。我用繁體字的理由是不知­道你認不認識簡體字）。好像很多人喜歡看你的視頻（包括覺得你不­應該說髒話的母親哈哈哈）。你最好編輯你的視頻（我只是在開玩笑­）。你做得很好

@miltownkid getsmartpaul sounds like some uptight professor with a stick up his ass.

theres actually a 5th tone where a dot ( . ) is added onto the pin yin or joo yin, which basically something similar to a 1st tone where its abrupt like the 4th tone like the sound "ma" in "malevolence" .

Your Mandarin pronunciatons of "two" and "eight" are not standard.

I think that you can pronunce most of the single mandarin words correctly, but when it comes to a sentence or longer sequence of sounds, then your accent appears. However it has been awesome and good enough, since Mandarin is not your first language.

加油。
