My deepest respect to this man.
Everyone is learning Chinese nowadays. Mandarin will soon be as common all over the world as the practice of drinking tea
@Comrad Civil That is a lie.

China is my most favourite country in the World. Happy Chinese Lunar Spring Festival. Love from Indonesia ❤
Indonesia's President took Chinese vaccines in front of the press 👍
Hope you and your family stay safe and happiness.
This pandemic shows me why people like to say : "haters have an evil heart"
China is evil. US has always been a great ally with Indonesia we protect and serve the people in Asia like Japan, Vietnam
@Pooh Xijin insane
Never retired, never stop, keep doing new things. learning from you, buddy.
Chinese civilization is the longest continuous one in existence today, testament to the strength and perseverance of the Chinese people and nation
I totally agree with you on this..
@Pooh Xijin first, I have never seen anyone eating bats here. Second, bat cuisine is fine, I will definitely try it if I travel to some Pacific island. You should never discriminate
@GIC中国讨论 None of us did, bats are only eaten in south Asia.
China one of my favourite country in the world.
Lots of love from India ❤️❤️❤️❤️...
Thanks Richard...you have a family, quite a big one actually, it numbers 1.3 billion.
I love China. My 2 kids are fluent in Chinese. I am an Indian South African but in love with china. They treated my kids so well. They studied medicine there for 6 yrs. China as lot to offer. U must catch it on time I'm glad u did. Thanks for the sharing and caring.They are humble people. After corona is over we are going back to our much loved China.
The whole world is now learning Chinese. Very soon, speaking Mandarin all over the world will be as common as the practice of drinking tea
@Pooh Xijin at least people are learning Chinese. Nobody's learning Hindi, it's not even a language at the United Nations
No wonder there were thousands of Indians trapped in Wuhan prior to its lockdown earlier last year
Didn’t know this genius exists! I have SO much respect for this guy!!!
汉字叔叔，老爷子去年刚获得中国绿卡。
A passion for a foregn language that goes on for half a decade is nothing less than extraordinary! My salute to you Mr. Hanzi. 钦佩您对中文文字半个多世纪的热爱，这份热诚和执著在现今快餐社会风气已是很不寻常！
This is so inspiring...He deserves all his success.
Uncle Hanzi's etymology website, in a very visual and intuitive way, has allowed me to observe the beauty of the evolution of the written strokes along with their meaning.
I will always be grateful to him, his work, and his team.
There were thousands of Indians in Wuhan prior to its lockdown early 2020. We Indians would literally go anywhere just to escape extreme levels of poverty and deprivation in India
There was a moment in china, Chinese being racists to Indians cause a minority of Indian refused to follow instructions, they were kicked out from their rented house even most of them willing to cooperate.
Wuhan is a mega rich rich even by western standard. Not surprised any foreigner would want to find a future there. Covic 19 made Wuhan stronger
hahaha and i always see indians laughing at china in yt comments. the irony.
I have just bumped into your story and I’m truly impressed, why? Because we’re similar in so many ways, I’m single, have never been married or live with someone, I’m an introvert and love books, history, geography, from my siblings and friends, most of them failed in marriage life and ended up divorced, separated...I would say, being single and contented is the most happy life of all. I’m wishing you good health 🙏 Greetings from Hong Kong 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
Because he lived in China in his previous life, he has a feeling of going home to China in this life
As a lover of the English language, I admire your love for my native language. Thank you Uncle Hanzi for promoting peace and understanding in this world of chaos and strife. You have my deepest respect.
When I started learning Chinese I remember feeling there was a life story behind each character, and if I could only figure out what that was, I would remember them better as well as understand how they fit together.
Uncle Hanzi is first of all talented in drawing pictures there is no way that you can learn Chinese without that ability 😄good luck in ox year
He lives a life of great accomplishment, thank for your inspirational story.
Uncle Hanzi!!! Ive been fascinated by the stories behind chinese characters for a few years too and I finally found your site.. what a treasure!!! I was born in Boston, travelled a lot, now live in Canada ( Vancouver BC). I remember 1993 computers!!
I ❤ China
Support Indian farmers in their fight against the oppressive BJP fascist regime in New Delhi headed by useless big talking Modi
Inspirational ,, for sure .. !!
I hope that one day Uncle Hanzi will receive an award from the Chinese government and especially from presiden Mr. Xi Jinping. Why should the award? Because his whole life is devoted to the Chinese character, Hanzi. A very awesome human 👍👍👍
Inspired to the very core, thank you uncle Hanzi and CGTN
Life is about WHO you are and HOW you live YOUR life. It is not about living someone else's life because so many (who won't see or admit it.) are simply existing; not living. Love is not found just between people. It is the love of life, of nature, of books and literature, of music and so much more. As we get older we learn the real love re living, of sharing, of caring of LIFE. What we have when we breathe our last are our MEMORIES AND reflections on the good, the bad or the indifferent is not someone else's but OUR LIFE, OUR LOVE, OUR MEMORIES. Life to me is like matured wine.. or a memorable aged malt whiskey. Stay safe my friend and I look forward to seeing more vids. 👍
I find Richard a man of exceptional character and extremely brave. I applaud you for your courage to learn Chinese. Question is why Chinese? What attracted you to the language? Do you think the mainland simplified chinese should revert back to the traditional form? It must make you so proud to have received a touching letter from your mother stating she is PROUD of the work you have done. I would certainly would be. Thank you Richard for your contribution to this world.
China is a very unified country since ancient times while my India's just a recent British creation, full of separatist movements and Communist Maoist and Muslims. My India can easily break apart anytime, all you need is just a spark
You’re actually based for once
Very amazing, inspiring story!
Respect to this great man
Many respect!👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing! Thank you, Sir.
Richard, you are an inspiration to a passion that you love
Happy Chinese Lunar New Year
像他这样执着，平凡但又伟大的美国人很多很多。在今天中国关系恶化的环境中我们要记住中国两国的人民都热爱和平，希望发展和繁荣。是少数政客和贪婪的资本家把两国的外交关系搞坏了。
Thank you, sir.
Beautiful story 👍😊💝
Woow!! What a wonderful life !
Dreamaker.. It doesn't matter as long as we understood ourselves, our inner-selves that are filled with continuous dream tht gave positive energy.. Life to me is always about exploring and doing better as it could bring optimism in life and feels so much about his program ❤️🌈
Love and Blessings 💖
You have a rich and meaningful life!
This is so inspirational, I dont think I wanna have kids or have a family, this world is really a struggle and family is an extra responsibility and more stressful, im good by veibg on my own, sometime I feel lonely and my family there always a drama, Im not in touch with them anymore, im afraid everytime I had to make decisions or moving to a new city, but thats the life we choose, is kindda selfish but is better than having fights or veing worrie about unfortunate events that I cant control
You have a good mentality. Life is beautiful. Everyone is happy, angry, sad, happy running wild on the road and there is no right, wrong, good or bad. There is only a peaceful end...您有很好的心态. 人生都是美丽的. 每个人都在喜. 怒. 哀. 乐, 的路上狂奔. 没有对,错,好,坏.只有平静的终结. .
Excellent.
he is a very lucky man for he is living his dream, what else do you need?
You are great
Amazing
awsome old man, respect form a Chinese
Hi Mr. Sears. I hope this message finds you in both good health and state of Mind. I'd never commented publicly much at all as far as I could remember in all the years of my browsing but I could not help but say this, there is one thing that you could do and that is, to dedicate all your Merits and good deeds to your family members, this could very well help them in wherever they are now. Just dedicate all the Virtues and Merits of all that you'd accumulated in your lifetime to them. It'd be truly great if could dedicate all the Virtues and Merits that you had carried out to them since Beginningless Time. Do it with all your heart. It would be best if you could meditate and sit quietly with that question of 'Who am I' persistently. These are Koans in Zen Meditation. Another Koan would be 'If two hands clap and make a sound, what is the sound of one hand clapping?'. Investigate thoroughly. After that you could dedicate all the Merits and Virtues accumulated to them too.
How impressive 👍👍👍
amazing
bravo
AWESOME
👍👍👍!汉字叔叔，祝您新年快乐!牛气冲天!牛转乾坤!牛逼!!!身体健康，寿比南山。

The whole world is learning Chinese. Very soon speaking Cantonese will be as common as drinking tea.
They do not teach or teach in cantonese in mainland china, plus there are bigger Chinese languages like Wu and Min which are slowly fading away as the older generation stops teaching the younger generation. As main landers from the north travel to the tier 1 cities like guangzhou and shenzhen, Mandarin will be the dominate way of communication, so as china industrialise and technologize there will be an influx of mandarin speakers and other chinese language speakers to tier 1 cities, forcing everyone to use the common language 普通话. China may be a mono-language country in the next 200 years once all the different ethnicity groups are assimilated and integrated into Chinese culture and taught Mandarin.
I am surprised you mentioned Cantonese will becomes very common instead of Mandarin or Putonghua as it called in China, well maybe true if inside certain parts of Guangzhou, HK & Macau but outside these regions and many parts of the world, Mandarin or Putonghua is most common now.
Cantonese is common in the orange universe, not this universe.
Gosh!
值得我们中国人钦佩!!!
媽祖'(果)祖媽'(因)媽媽(缘)
像肯德基爷爷，哈哈。太厉害了！
Hahahah he had yellow fever at 10 years old.
敬礼！汉字叔叔！
Why don't you create such for India too
Sears, call me.
Mr Sears has truly cut his own path through time.
I will share your videos with Austin.
He is now 90!
Do you know him?
聖父母是神的旨意代表我不撇下你也不丢棄你。
父母和聖父母，和祖宗是不一樣的意思。
天，地，人
OMG History is my story...including living in china....
聖父母代表天地
你是人
再來人
您的名字将在汉字中留有一席之地，您的事迹将如一叶扁舟游于岁月长河之中。
Welp. Adios English.
Chinese Question : who am I
Answer : A virus
😂😂😂😂😂
There are a lot of idiots believe themselves as smart ass. 😂
Master of illusions🤮
Racist！
I hope you could trace the Hanzi back to Genesis when God created heaven and earth, thanks & God bless!
bravo
