I've watched dozens of Chinese teachers attempt to explain Chinese sentence word structure/order. This is the clearest and best one I've seen. I'll watch it several times to make sure I get it all down well. Thank you so much!!
One of the better aspects of the Internet is the retention of historical content. This video is evidence of that. Savannah even though this video is 4 years old ... and even though you are not presently adding content to this channel ... I want to let you know that this is excellent teaching. All of your videos are well thought out and easy to follow and extremely helpful. I hope life is treating you well ... and THANK YOU THANK YOU ... for all the amazing teaching that you have given the Mandarin Chinese UA-cam learners!!!🏆😊🥇🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
People often complain that Chinese is hard. But with a teacher who explain the sentence structure like this, how hard can it be? I tried learning Spainish or Arabic on youtube and trust me, I couldn't find one who explain like this Chinese teacher.
I just passed the HSK1 test a few months ago. This would have helped me - thankfully found you now! I am tutored 5 days per week, but was never explained this method!😀
You are an amazing teacher. You have great examples and explain everything so well. Sentence structure is my major hurdle right now and I think you’ve helped heaps with showing what I need to understand.
This is one of the best explanations I've ever seen of word order. Hope you're still making videos. Also, I really appreciate that you don't just flash the sentence up as a graphic or ppt, gives us time to think about what's happening which helps to remember.
That is a really interesting topic showing how flexible Chinese become to avoid adding extra structure. In Latin languanges (pt-br, es, .. ) we tend to make hard use of adverbs+preposition for everything so the more you use, the clearer you are. While Korean and Japanese use particles to denote importance on topic/place/object.. and it is confusing even to natives to use it correctly. Glad that Chinese handle this in such logic way
老师好。 我每天在家学中文。 ( May i know if my sentence is correct ). 谢谢老师. Actually I first watched this particular lesson only yesterday ( Tuesday, 31st January 2023 ) but today ( 1st Feb. ) do a second viewing. This is so important and definitely will benefit me very greatly.
How come the view count is so low? This is important and fundamental information for every serious Chinese language student. I'll stick around to learn more. Xiexie nin
So glad I came across this. Was able to follow most of your explanations. In the last part (two verbs) you mentioned write email. Xiě diànzǐ yóujiàn. You wrote it differently. (xiě yóu jiàn) Could you explain this.
Good question. Dian4 zi3 means electronic. So dian4 zi3 you2 jian4 is the full term of email (literal translation: electronic mail). But on a day to day basis, people usually just use the short version you2 jian4. When you refer to a actual postal package we usually say 包裹bao1 guo3 or 快递kuai4 di4. For letters in the mail, we usually call them 信xin4 which is not common in China any more. People rarely receive actual letters nowadays. Therefore, there won’t be misunderstanding if you use you2 jian4.
1) Your super beautiful, zhen mei li. 2) STPVMO is grammatically correct BUT Chinese is TOPIC oriented not subject oriented. I've seen exactly ONE youtube video which adequately addresses topic prominence in Chinese. 3) Language drills of well-formed sentences with good style and grammar are essential to passive acquisition and internalization of foreign language grammar. 4) You're gorgeous. So much so either it bears repeating or I simply forgot. Did I mention? Super beautiful.
Hi there. That’s a good question. 送 is like an intransive verb where we need to use the form 送someone something (送我礼物). You can also use the form 送something 给someone (送礼物给我). Hope it helps. Please feel free to let me know if you have more questions:) I’m more than happy to help.
Azariea Cameron yes you are absolutely correct. 一起 is an adverb. I did not include 一起 in the sentence because I tried to focus on one thing at a time. Thanks for your feedback ;)
In your example using bu and all, the application is not correct. You said: "all do not study Chinese." In English you should say: "Not all of them study Chinese." or "None of them study Chinese." If you want to use a specific number of people. Then you say: "Not all five of them study Chinese." or "None of the five study Chinese."

You are one of the best teachers on UA-cam. Please, gift us with other classes like this!

Wow you nailed it with this explanation, I wonder if you have more videos explaining grammar
Thank you for your feedback. What kind of grammar would you interested learning? I’d love to know :)
@keystochinese0921 I have seen videos related to the order of words when you are describing something or when something is the result of something.
That cat has main character energy 😅😂 猫可爱
This was a really great video for hsk
If possible would be nice if you could make such video regarding sentences with passive voice.
Thank you for the idea. Will definitely make one in the near future 🥰
Wonferful explanation! I loved your cat! :P
Thankyou good teaches.
