Do a vid on all the common 7-11 interaction language, like "Would you like this food heated?", "Do you have membership?", "Do you want a receipt?" or how to ask about receiving a package, ordering a taxi, using the copier, etc., or "is this on special/what's the deal on this?"
It's taken me so long to learn all that coz the clerks always talk quickly but not clearly.
We will keep this as an idea for future videos. Thank you!
这个视频可以看出这位UA-camr对中文的理解很牛逼😍
谢谢夸奖但真的不敢当，我们都只是热爱中文的终身学习者。
It's honestly shocking that a channel so great could have such a low amount of views on videos like these. Because of Mandarin Blueprint I started learning Mandarin again, and put more focus on tones (an aspect I took for granted the first time I tried Mandarin). Honestly, thank you for all your hard work and dedication to releasing videos such as these ones. I note down every word I find useful in any of your videos. You're an amazing channel for Chinese, and I always recommend you to all my friends when it comes to learning Mandarin. Keep doing what you do, and thanks again. The content is always high quality, informative, and very entertaining.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for supporting our channel!
It one sense it is shocking and in another sense it is not. It is shocking because the material is extremely high quality and useful. It is not shocking in the sense that many of the highly-trafficked Mandarin videos on YT are presented by attractive women, and those draw a great many slow-witted guys who watch them just to ogle and to say "你很漂亮，老师.“ in the comments (except that they usually just type the pinyin and sometimes incorrectly use 是 instead of 很). Sad, but that is the nature of social media.

The tone of 撒 here should be sǎ, the third tone.
When you say this word as a verb to spread something, it is sǎ. It’s only pronounced with the first tone sā when you wanna say 撒谎(to tell a lie) or 撒开(to let it go) or in the phrase 撒哈拉沙漠（The Sahara Desert).
But overall, your video is very good! The rest of the content is accurate and authentic. Please keep it up!
*I’m a native Mandarin speaker.
Oops! Thanks for pointing that out.
Could you leave words with their transcription on screen a little longer for us who read slowly?

我真的很喜欢你对中文的掌握。 我羡慕你。
Great complement to MB course. I’m recognizing a lot of the characters in the video, too! 谢谢你
As a subscriber of Mandarin Blueprint since last September, I was listening to this podcast and when you mentioned Dali as one of the most beautiful cities in China, I must agree as my wife is from Dali and although we live in Southern California, we have real estate in Dali. In fact my wife and daughter are there now during construction of our new house. I will be heading there in a couple of weeks and you're right, it is a very beautiful place. PS. I must confess I haven't been practicing and my Mandarin continues to needshelp!
Hey Tristen, Thank you for your comment .
And no worries . Send us an email and let's work together to get you back on track
Awesome
I loved it, thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, and it’s cool to learn a bit about you.
你的解释好透彻！
谢谢你。你的videos很有意思🙏
谢谢关注我们的频道
I relocated to Dali last year, it's absolutely a beautiful place
the most commonly used word is definitely wocao, which directly translates to I fuck, just kinda like fuck. It's pretty commonly used in many situations, mostly used in the younger generation.
By the way, your vid has been posted on Bilibili and gets 150k views now and I don't know if you authorized the uploader or not.
Watching from Guiyang. I love Dali. Been there once
I really appreciate these videos. Thanks
Glad you like them!
I"m impressed. You are so good teacher.
Thank you! 😃
Learning Chinese could you tell me some great Chinese anime/cartoons or children shows that would help with learning the language
Hello, I am from China, I highly recommend watching the Chinese version of "Jackie Chan Adventures", whether it is for children or adults to watch themselves, it is very suitable. And Jackie Chan is an actor that everyone is familiar with, so the acceptance will be higher. If you need other video recommendations, you can reply to me
哈哈哈解释得很有意思
I'm a heritage speaker of mandarin, so this video really helps with some of the newer slangs that I definitely have blind spot on. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Please make a video about daily routines, Luke. I really really love all of your contents a lot.
Keep an eye on our new videos as we are constantly making new videos! Maybe this is one that he'll do.
I was looking for 太厉害了! i wanted to know if it's proper to use it with older people cause I want to use in my speaking test with my teachers😂
太厉害了means "Amazing", It is a neutral word that can be said to anyone in the vast majority of cases. It's okay to praise teachers, parents, friends, or children by saying "太厉害了."
it’s such a small thing but i wish you would keep the character your talking about in the top corner of the screen.
We'll take this suggestion into consideration in our future video productions. Thanks!
Yeaaah it’s so hard to make a pause at the moment when the characters are showing
牛逼 niubi is a great example how language changes with times, the original word has nothing to do with vagina.
In ancient time people use to blow up sheep's skin to make raft so it can flow in the water, But if a guy say he can blow up cow's skin, He's lying, because cow are much bigger then sheep, one man can not blow up a whole cow skin in one go, so the word 吹牛皮chui niu pi(blow cow skin) is born, means somebody is lying, or somebody is exaggerate.
Then the word became voguer 吹牛逼chui niu bi(blow cow's vagina) because bi is very similar to pi.
And then because if somebody is 吹牛逼 He's exaggerate, he claim he can do something incredible, so 牛逼niu bi(cow's vagina) became a separate word means somebody is doing something incredible, or awesome.
And to avoid using vague word, just like in this video, people then shorten this word to just 牛niu(cow).
正确答案
再解释下山寨吧
我理解山寨并不是他说的意思
山寨只是表达一种很破烂的感觉，表示是很低质量的copy，而非他说的因为是小作坊加工的所以叫山寨
Many of these terms are super modern. The only ones you mentioned that do not strike me as exceedingly modern are 靠谱, 拍马屁，找茬, and 兜圈子. I do think 秀恩爱 and 牛 are incredibly common as well, but they also strike me as very modern. The others I don't think I've ever heard since I left China in the 90s. I did grow up around a lot of common regional words though. It was really weird to discover that southerners don't seem to have a word for 马路牙子 and don't seem to use the word 勺子 or, on that topic, the verb kuǎi (not sure how it's written in Chinese). Other common slang from my region are 埋汰 for dirty, 得瑟 for showing off, 磕碜 for ugly, among others. It's also common to pronounce 饿 as "nè" and 扔 as "lēng."
Yes, Chinese has evolved over time (as all languages do), and at an incredible speed since the advent of the Internet. Some of these are just attributed to local slangs spreading to the rest of China e.g. 得瑟 and 坑爹 (I can tell that you're from 东北 since you knew these in the 90s). Some are spread from the south e.g. 炒鱿鱼 or 拍拖 from the HK/Guangdong region. These little things make learning Chinese a lot more interesting!
@@MandarinBlueprint👍indeed, speaking in different 口音accents and having different slangs makes mandarin interesting to hear.
kuǎi：简体“㧟”，繁体“擓”，异体“㨤”
I’m native Chinese. Today we speak very differently from the last century but we still use the words mentioned in the vid though some are kind of outdated and more commonly replaced by other words. As for 马路牙子 and 勺子 (or 调羹 used by southerners), they are examples of differences across regions. But still, most people can understand commonly used words from other parts of China thanks to internet and such.
@@MandarinBlueprintI’m from HK and I wanna learn some mandarin slang! Tysmmm
Cattle are endowed with many cultural images in Chinese culture which are determined by their character and characteristics. For example, in Cantonese, when a person is described 牛精, it means that everyone is stubborn
If you're keen on Chinese culture and literature, consider using effective tools such as DeepL and Immersive Translate to help you grasp the essence.
博主一看就没少上网冲浪，很地道😂
牛逼 reminds me of a Russian word 'pizdato' which literally means 'twatty' 😂
What website is the Chinese segment taken from?
Today 充电 and 给力 are quite old-fashioned, at least for the young group

Name of this c drama????
Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/LQiWx3SrJ8Y/v-deo.html
So maybe my brain is bad hearing differences but zhong and Chong sounds exactly the same in my ears and like I can't even try to move my mouth differently to make any difference in the pronunciation that makes sense
Here is a video that dives into those sounds more ua-cam.com/video/m-yq-wr9Qic/v-deo.html
What is the animated clip with the girl looking for death from?
It's from the animation 姜子牙 (Jiang Ziya)

哥们牛逼
这个频道很牛逼，看完感觉我语文水平不及格啊😂
niubi has the same vibes as the English saying "dog's b*llocks" that's such a coincidence
I think 牛逼 has many more usage contexts than "dog's bollocks", because it can be used as both criticism and praise.
Can we get the names of some of these shows/movies the clips are from in this video?
We could only locate the first two clips for 牛逼:
The Liar Hunter (2019) 读心
Good Life (2022) 温暖一家人
确实 牛逼这个词实在是太commonly used了
Bu cuo! Xie.
the character "逼" in "牛逼" roughly means " as f**k" in English，for example，there are some words in Mandarin such as "傻逼/stupid as f**k"，"呆逼/dumb as f**k"，"装逼/pretentious as f**k".
Okay talk about Kenyans
2:40中文片段摘自什么网站
这是来自youku网站，但抱歉我们不记得这是哪一部电视剧了 =(
I would watch shorts about the news and the important words that come with it. Like today there is a volcanic eruption in Iceland. Why not tell us what the Mandarin words for eruption, Iceland, Vulcanic Ash, earthquake, etc are. Or words about Gaza and Ukraine. Like War, shelter, bombs, refugees, etc. So it's easier to watch Chinese news to learn Chinese.
Understood. We'll make a note for future videos. If you're keen on learning Mandarin or expanding your Mandarin vocabulary for watching the news, I recommend exploring our course. We can assist you in becoming fluent.www.mandarinblueprint.com/buy-the-blueprint/
来学英文的中文母语者来补充：作为女生 小时候家里不让讲牛逼这个词的… 😂所以很多女生都用x代替bī， 我就说什么什么很 “牛叉 ”
哈哈，今天终于明白牛叉得意思了
the word "牛" probably comes from the term of stock market that is bull.

what about 六六六？😂
Especially with your pinky finger out 😀
Yes, indeed! That was in our draft where we had a list of more than 50, so we had to shortlist the most interesting ones. We might make a future episode to feature those we missed out in this clip.
I think 六六六 is quite popularr, and also during ur selfstudy or learning with a teacher it is mentioned:)
haha if i said 很牛逼 to my chinese brother in law who is native speaker but hasnt been in china forever would he know what it means?? 😂
Unlikely, because it used to be exclusively said in the Northern regions, but spread throughout the country and only came into common Chinese parlance in the past couple of decades.
下饭还有一种意思😂，主播和观众互动，调侃技术玩家操作失误的委婉说辞，让人感到失望或好笑，
吃了三大碗=下饭=好吃的菜=好菜=菜=菜鸟=技术不好很弱，
哈哈，这些延申含义都很有趣，但对西方的中文学生来说可能会听/看糊涂了！
My own understanding of “li pu” is ridiculous
Do you really think it helps a learner to throw a sentence like WO XIANG SHANG JIGE YUE DE YEXIAO GEI ZIJI CHONG YIXIA DIAN at them without an adequate explication!? At least I think I know how to say I want a f*** by lopping off most of the rest of the sentence.
离谱ridiculous
离谱这个词现在网络上用的少了，现在用逆天来代替这个词
@@maikelin-gl5pu Most people prefer 逆天 but I prefer 离谱
你谈到“牛逼”， 俺给你推荐三个有关牛逼的歇后语： 1. 母牛倒拉车 -- 牛逼在先 （形容你是最先或第一个什么什么的）；2. 俩母牛对屁股 -- 比较牛逼： 3. 母牛掉酒缸 -- 最（醉）牛逼。 哈哈…
