You first start with hsk level one , then level 2 and up to 6 , .. don’t put yourself in these things in start these are so hard and it will demotivate you
I have a different perspective. Although English has only 26 letters, it needs to have one distinctive word to describe a thing or concept. When a new thing emerges, the English needs to come up with a new word for it, while the Chinese just needs a composition of some existing characters with relevant meaning or context to make up a new combined word. A few examples: 火=fire, 箭=arrow, 火箭=rocket; 电=electric, 脑=brain, 电脑=computer; 温=warmth, 度=degree, 温度=temperature. By learning a thousand common Chinese characters, it should be adequate for normal daily use.
@@中華-n5u wow that’s amazing. I didn’t even know this so thank you for telling me about this. now that you have said that I see what you mean however the beautiful Chinese symbols are still really intricate compared to English letters. But now I understand what you mean more thank u
It’s not that difficult actually. They all use the same radicals/components, so although they are technically all different, they’re not actually that difficult to learn.
They don't. Chinese characters are built of a limited number of components (admittedly more than English's 26). It is quite possible for a Chinese person to deduce the meaning (and pronunciation) of any new word they encounter.

Korean has possibly the best writing system of any language ever devised. The main places where it breaks down are due to the period between when it was invented and when it gained widespread acceptance. But, it's still by far the best writing system for actually translating between written and spoken language that anybody has created. Probably the next best thing would arguably be IPA and that's rather limited in some other ways.
Having taken French & Russian, the Chinese alphabet is similar (to me) to learning Cyrillic. Cyrillic has many diphthongs combined to make one letter rather than separating them out into separate letters. This, to me, is fun!
Have not finished watching the whole video … but … had had to stop to comment. Outstanding video … I have liked and subscribed. Content is amazing 🥇 … teaching is excellent 🥇… content is excellent 🥇… production sound and visuals all excellent 🥇 Will be using your videos form my ongoing self study. ⭐⭐⭐🏆⭐⭐⭐🙏👏
Chinese phonetic symbols are borrowed from English pronunciation. So presumably correct. But since I just started learning English, I don't know if what you said is right or not. If you want to learn Chinese, we can form a language partner, which is very efficient, and I can learn English from you.
I have been speaking fluent Cantonese and some Mandarin for my whole life but somehow I still don't know how to write and properly read so I am putting up a challenge for myself to learn Chinese properly and also try to learn some Korean. This was a really helpful video thanks!
I'm 19 years old girl from India. I'm here to learn Chinese language bcuz I'm fond of learning languages 😌 ur video helped me a lot. Thanks for your support ❤️❤️ Few months ago I also learned Korean language it's very interesting language i really enjoyed learning.
I guess as a native German speaker, some pronunciations are easier but I just noticed that Chinese alphabet is funny bc for every single sound, there is a sign/letter. The different pronunciations in German just happens while talking/ speaking complete words but in chinese there is a sign for each sound xD
oh my gosh, I am literally crying, this helped me soooooo much. I was so confused about learning both but you actually explained what you should learn !!!!!!!! and I was able to understand everything, thank you 💙
in brief: This video provides a detailed introduction to the Chinese phonetic system, often referred to as the Chinese alphabet. The video emphasizes that this "alphabet" is designed primarily to assist with pronunciation, since written Chinese relies on character-based radicals instead of a typical alphabet. The Chinese phonetic system is colloquially known as "Bopomofo," named after the first four letters: bo, po, mo, fo. The video covers two main systems for writing the Chinese phonetic system: the Pinyin system, which is widely used in mainland China, and the Zhuyin system used in Taiwan. The Pinyin system uses Latin letters, whereas the Zhuyin system uses unique symbols. The host suggests that learners start with Pinyin due to its familiarity and ubiquity, but advises considering learning Zhuyin as well to avoid common pronunciation errors that come from applying English pronunciation to Pinyin. The video then proceeds to provide a comprehensive walkthrough of the Chinese phonetic system, offering unique mnemonic devices for each initial (beginning sound) and medial (middle sound) in the system. These sounds are divided into several groups based on their pronunciation characteristics: -labial initials, -dental initials, -guttural initials, -palatal initials, -retroflex initials, and -dental sibilant initials. Each initial is illustrated with a corresponding example, Pinyin representation, and Zhuyin symbol. The host connects each symbol to a memorable image or idea to aid learning. The video also introduces three medials, providing similar mnemonic techniques for each. The video emphasizes that proper Chinese pronunciation also involves different tonal qualities, but leaves this topic for another discussion. The text is providing a mnemonic and visual guide to learning the Chinese alphabet, specifically focusing on the zhuyin system, also known as Bopomofo. - The symbol ㄠ is described to look like two bent knees of someone who's fallen, with its pinyin being AO. - The next symbol, ㄡ, is reminiscent of a bow tie in the process of being tied, pronounced OU in pinyin. - For ㄢ, the best English equivalent given is the 'a' sound in the Spanish word for bread, 'pan'. The pinyin is AN, with the zhuyin potentially resembling a baker's hat. - The pinyin for ㄣ is EN. It's best compared to the "-un" part in the phrase "young'un", suggesting an older person referring to a child. - The pinyin ANG corresponds to the symbol ㄤ, described as being similar to the word "wrong" without the 'wr', or like an 'a' sound followed by 'ng'. - ㄥ is likened to the word "dung" without the 'd', spelled as ENG in pinyin, with the zhuyin resembling a nose sniffing dung. - Lastly, ㄦ (pinyin ER) is compared to the uncertain sound of "err..." one might make when hesitating in speech. The text encourages multiple repetitions of these lessons, possibly with songs in Chinese, to aid learning. It also suggests visiting the website singandlearnchinese.com to download a Chinese pronunciation chart, and to check out the Sing & Learn Chinese song teaching videos for further practice. It ends by encouraging learners to share their new knowledge and promising more videos in the future.

Honestly speaking , this is such a great teaching and learning lesson for Chinese alphabets in accordance with English alphabets and those impressive pics to help learners memorize better ! Great job and thx!
I'm just here to learn Chinese so I can read.... ehem... bl mangas.... But nonetheless this is the best and easiest video for u to get started in learning Chinese. Her voice is so alive I feel like a kindergartner. Thank you for the free lessons!
My chinese learning experience is ... very strange. I never learnt how to pronounce letters, I just went into vocabulary and grammar, surprisingly? This worked ...
First thing I'm learning for this language. Already speak German at a comfortable level as a second language and want to master this language. Very excited to learn Chinese🙏 wish me luck.
I’m only 3 minutes into this vide and it is already one of the most impressive instructional videos I’ve ever seen. I’m so impressed. I’m still terrified to learn Chinese, but slightly less now with her.

@@hey_gaming6019 Pinyin is the romanized writing system that people in China and many Chinese learners use to approximate Chinese pronunciation. Check out the video! :)
I'm learning Chinese using a tool that shows flash cards in hanzi for you to read. When you hit the space bar it gives an audible pronunciation and also shows the pinyin. For me I found that using this method I picked up pinyin without really thinking about it. At the start I would write down the hanzi character followed by the pinyin followed by my best attempt to write it phonetically in English. I did find that my home grown phonetic approach had a tendency to lose the tonal content a bit so beware lol. I now find that I can read the pinyin and in many cases I don't need the pinyin either. The biggest hurdle I have now encountered is trying to understand someone speaking to me. It's the classic ask a question you have practiced only to find you don't understand a word of the reply lol.
@Sing and Learn Chinese This was a great video! Xie xie. This is the first video I've found that teaches the pronunciation of the Chinese alphabet. Plus you have a very lovely and pleasing voice. You have a new subscriber. I look forward to hear you sing in the other videos. I wish I saw this 12 months ago when you uploaded it. haha.
It's hard for the beginner to learn Zhuyin without knowing Chinese characters. I highly recommend people who don't know much about Chinese to learn Pinyin first.
Actually I never knew that Chinese has alphabets, I thought I should just memorize every word and I can never read any new words unless I'm already familiar with it
This alphabet is barely used to write a text, I've seen it used to characters that you can't write in you phone or to don't write a curse word... This is used in dictionaries and it shows how to pronounce some character. I can write "shui jiao", but it can mean 睡觉 (sleep) 水饺 (a chinese food) 谁叫 (who is called ...), And a lot of different words, so you still need to memorize the pronunciation and meaning of each character. If you are learning now, it's very hard at the beginning but it gets way more easier by the time
Chinese doesn't really, there have been a few Romanization systems developed and bopomofo is pretty much exclusively used as an input method. Chinese does have an alphabet of sorts in the form of components. It's just that they aren't used the way that an alphabet is used. They're arranged into a character and can be used to guess the likely meanings and pronuncation of an unknown character. In the mainland you'll see Pinyin being used on signs as a way of helping people with poor literacy get around at times, but even with tone markers, which are usually absent, it's still a poor replacement for characters due to how many characters share the same spoken syllable and how many words only consist of one or two syllables in the first place. But really, any effort to try and view Chinese as having an alphabet is going to be misleading and of only marginal utility, at best.

I'm a Spanish speaker. Who's not very fluent yet in Spanish, but I like languages. I can speak Spanish, Tagalog, and Portuguese. I love kung fu movies and would like to learn Chinese to understand whats going on in the martial arts movies I love to watch. I learned a lot from this video. Gonna have to watch over and over to get it. Thanks!!
Amazing video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.
I really want to learn Chinese language.. Because my best friend and BF is from china.. And I want to go China.. That's why I'm so serious for Chinese language... 💜🥰😘🇨🇳💜🇮🇳
I like the tutorial even if this is only for less than 20 mins! I might not easily remember them all but I got the gist of how to pronounce them bc you used common & simple English words as an example!! Great video for a beginner like me!
@@marieltaruc6458 zhuyin and pinyin are for pronunciation only. As you say there is no formal "Chinese alphabet" (see beginning of the video and answers to some of the other questions in the comment section) You don't have to learn zhuyin, but you will need to learn pronunciation somehow. Zhuyin is the Taiwanese pronunciation system, pinyin is from Mainland China.

No wonder, I have been eating some times in a chinese restaurant, but owner is from hong kong. He corrects my pronunciation and I got a little fruatrated and confused. He explained me the why's, but to me it is easier to learn mandarin and pronounce it as the most common pronunciation used. Still, I am really happy. Phrases I have learned I am able to communicate with him. Thank you for confirming pronunciation I have learned.
LOVE your examples! awesome vivid and funny imageries!!! if you SEPARATE the 2 systems into 2 videos would be great! just want to focus on PINYIN only. learning 2 new systems at the same time is too confusing for me
I‘m a native chinese speaker. And I'm trying to find some guys speaking English, especially the native speaker, to help me improve my oral English.

@@SingandLearnChinese done as in I don't have to make efforts consciously to learn... Now I can express myself well in Korean and can understand almost everything I hear as well... And the way you have taught the Chinese alphabet here, I am motivated to learn Chinese as well❤️ tysmm😭❤️
@@pallavishrotriya230 how did you learn so well? UA-cam?
@@rinaosmani9084 yeppp. UA-cam is such a huge help. No need of classes or anything. Just youtube... I have my youtube channel so I'm thinking of making a step wise video about how to go about learning korea to help people learning korean... I had a hard time figuring out so I think it would save so many people so much time.
@@pallavishrotriya230 Can you tell me too :) I am also learning korean (I know hangul) but I don't know what to do next so can you just tell me what to learn after hangul and where to learn it . please :(
I was learning Korean

While chinese:
Language:Average
Alphabet:Insaneeee
Korean has possibly the best writing system of any language ever devised. The main places where it breaks down are due to the period between when it was invented and when it gained widespread acceptance. But, it's still by far the best writing system for actually translating between written and spoken language that anybody has created. Probably the next best thing would arguably be IPA and that's rather limited in some other ways.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade i agree
Have you tried portuguese?
idk why ppl think korean us soo hard.... im now almost fluent in korean so i can say, its not that hard....
Yes
One of the best videos on the introduction of learning 注音!
Thanks Duck Meat! :) Glad it was helpful ~
Having taken French & Russian, the Chinese alphabet is similar (to me) to learning Cyrillic. Cyrillic has many diphthongs combined to make one letter rather than separating them out into separate letters. This, to me, is fun!
I speak French but I found that Chinese is lil bit hard
It's so tough to learn this . I appreciate chinese people
Have not finished watching the whole video … but … had had to stop to comment. Outstanding video … I have liked and subscribed. Content is amazing 🥇 … teaching is excellent 🥇… content is excellent 🥇… production sound and visuals all excellent 🥇 Will be using your videos form my ongoing self study. ⭐⭐⭐🏆⭐⭐⭐🙏👏

Man I thought learning Chinese would be difficult but every pronunciation was so easy and exactly sounds like words in Hindi
Chinese phonetic symbols are borrowed from English pronunciation. So presumably correct. But since I just started learning English, I don't know if what you said is right or not.
If you want to learn Chinese, we can form a language partner, which is very efficient, and I can learn English from you.
@@51yougu you speak Chinese?
yes,i am chinese . can you give me your email?
Come to korea lol
I have been speaking fluent Cantonese and some Mandarin for my whole life but somehow I still don't know how to write and properly read so I am putting up a challenge for myself to learn Chinese properly and also try to learn some Korean. This was a really helpful video thanks!
That's great! Keep at it and you should pick it up much easier because you have a head start, knowing how to listen/speak :)
I'm 19 years old girl from India.
I'm here to learn Chinese language bcuz I'm fond of learning languages 😌 ur video helped me a lot. Thanks for your support ❤️❤️
Few months ago I also learned Korean language it's very interesting language i really enjoyed learning.
Me too
I guess as a native German speaker, some pronunciations are easier but I just noticed that Chinese alphabet is funny bc for every single sound, there is a sign/letter. The different pronunciations in German just happens while talking/ speaking complete words but in chinese there is a sign for each sound xD
oh my gosh, I am literally crying, this helped me soooooo much. I was so confused about learning both but you actually explained what you should learn !!!!!!!!
and I was able to understand everything, thank you 💙
in brief:
This video provides a detailed introduction to the Chinese phonetic system, often referred to as the Chinese alphabet.
The video emphasizes that this "alphabet" is designed primarily to assist with pronunciation, since written Chinese relies on character-based radicals instead of a typical alphabet.
The Chinese phonetic system is colloquially known as "Bopomofo," named after the first four letters: bo, po, mo, fo.
The video covers two main systems for writing the Chinese phonetic system: the Pinyin system, which is widely used in mainland China, and the Zhuyin system used in Taiwan.
The Pinyin system uses Latin letters, whereas the Zhuyin system uses unique symbols.
The host suggests that learners start with Pinyin due to its familiarity and ubiquity, but advises considering learning Zhuyin as well to avoid common pronunciation errors that come from applying English pronunciation to Pinyin.
The video then proceeds to provide a comprehensive walkthrough of the Chinese phonetic system, offering unique mnemonic devices for each initial (beginning sound) and medial (middle sound) in the system.
These sounds are divided into several groups based on their pronunciation characteristics:
-labial initials,
-dental initials,
-guttural initials,
-palatal initials,
-retroflex initials, and
-dental sibilant initials.
Each initial is illustrated with a corresponding example, Pinyin representation, and Zhuyin symbol.
The host connects each symbol to a memorable image or idea to aid learning.
The video also introduces three medials, providing similar mnemonic techniques for each.
The video emphasizes that proper Chinese pronunciation also involves different tonal qualities, but leaves this topic for another discussion.
The text is providing a mnemonic and visual guide to learning the Chinese alphabet, specifically focusing on the zhuyin system, also known as Bopomofo.
- The symbol ㄠ is described to look like two bent knees of someone who's fallen, with its pinyin being AO.
- The next symbol, ㄡ, is reminiscent of a bow tie in the process of being tied, pronounced OU in pinyin.
- For ㄢ, the best English equivalent given is the 'a' sound in the Spanish word for bread, 'pan'. The pinyin is AN, with the zhuyin potentially resembling a baker's hat.
- The pinyin for ㄣ is EN. It's best compared to the "-un" part in the phrase "young'un", suggesting an older person referring to a child.
- The pinyin ANG corresponds to the symbol ㄤ, described as being similar to the word "wrong" without the 'wr', or like an 'a' sound followed by 'ng'.
- ㄥ is likened to the word "dung" without the 'd', spelled as ENG in pinyin, with the zhuyin resembling a nose sniffing dung.
- Lastly, ㄦ (pinyin ER) is compared to the uncertain sound of "err..." one might make when hesitating in speech.
The text encourages multiple repetitions of these lessons, possibly with songs in Chinese, to aid learning.
It also suggests visiting the website singandlearnchinese.com to download a Chinese pronunciation chart, and to check out the Sing & Learn Chinese song teaching videos for further practice.
It ends by encouraging learners to share their new knowledge and promising more videos in the future.
Thanksss
I want to learn Chinese because Chinese is a vital and important language and also I love speaking and learning different languages
先把拼音学了，慢慢就认识的汉字多了。
如果學了注音，在練習漢字的時候也會帶來幫助
Your teaching skill is so good
I'm a native Chinese speaker.Why am I whatching this 🤔🤔🤔
Teach me .
😂😂
You should be, because you forgot chinese alphabet.😂😂😂
Why are you speaking English then
😅😅yes why
I am Mexican. I have learned English and Japanese. I always loved how chinese sounds so today I start my learning. Hopefully I can learn it ❤
Igual, como vas?
you can do it!! I just started today, I can't wait to speak fluently as well:)
@@latebracelet9362 lo que dice sobre el que zhuyin evita confusiones en la pronunciación es algo que no había pensado, como por ejemplo en el caso de shi vs 尸 que evitaría esa i fantasma...
I want to learn Chinese because I heard it's one of the most important languages in business and manufacture... and I also enjoy watching chinese dramas :)
Honestly speaking , this is such a great teaching and learning lesson for Chinese alphabets in accordance with English alphabets and those impressive pics to help learners memorize better ! Great job and thx!
You're welcome, and thank you for the kind words!
I'm just here to learn Chinese so I can read.... ehem... bl mangas.... But nonetheless this is the best and easiest video for u to get started in learning Chinese. Her voice is so alive I feel like a kindergartner. Thank you for the free lessons!
I love these mnemonics for Bopomofo! It reminds me of when I was learning Japanese Kana using mnemonics.
Hi @Seth Langston! Neat, what mnemonics did you use for the kana?
Ka ga sa ja ta da da, ha ba ha ba.. lyk dat, right😅
My chinese learning experience is ... very strange. I never learnt how to pronounce letters, I just went into vocabulary and grammar, surprisingly? This worked ...
First thing I'm learning for this language. Already speak German at a comfortable level as a second language and want to master this language. Very excited to learn Chinese🙏 wish me luck.
Used to learn Chinese alphabets pobomo...when I was young but have forgotten how to use them, now I can learn from this video, thank you.
Best explanation on UA-cam!!!😘
Thanks @Brandi nesbitt! :)
I’m only 3 minutes into this vide and it is already one of the most impressive instructional videos I’ve ever seen.
I’m so impressed.
I’m still terrified to learn Chinese, but slightly less now with her.

What is pignin
@@hey_gaming6019 Pinyin is the romanized writing system that people in China and many Chinese learners use to approximate Chinese pronunciation. Check out the video! :)
I'm learning Chinese using a tool that shows flash cards in hanzi for you to read. When you hit the space bar it gives an audible pronunciation and also shows the pinyin. For me I found that using this method I picked up pinyin without really thinking about it. At the start I would write down the hanzi character followed by the pinyin followed by my best attempt to write it phonetically in English. I did find that my home grown phonetic approach had a tendency to lose the tonal content a bit so beware lol. I now find that I can read the pinyin and in many cases I don't need the pinyin either. The biggest hurdle I have now encountered is trying to understand someone speaking to me. It's the classic ask a question you have practiced only to find you don't understand a word of the reply lol.
@Sing and Learn Chinese This was a great video! Xie xie. This is the first video I've found that teaches the pronunciation of the Chinese alphabet. Plus you have a very lovely and pleasing voice. You have a new subscriber. I look forward to hear you sing in the other videos. I wish I saw this 12 months ago when you uploaded it. haha.
Its awesome and I am learning Chinese because I want to become an Chinese actress so wish me luck that my dream come true
@KPOP girl thanks.....
Im Brazilian and learning my fourth language (Chinese), its really funny how similar the sounds in Chinese can be with Brazilian Portuguese!
It's hard for the beginner to learn Zhuyin without knowing Chinese characters. I highly recommend people who don't know much about Chinese to learn Pinyin first.
Your comment answers well my question. Thank you.
But I have a doubt how many division that chinease language have and which one is want to study to speak chinease 😔🥶🥵please reply
Let me know what i have to learn for learning Chinese bcoz perhaps their are lots of division in Chinese so I totally got confused
@@agiirrl6135 I want to learn Chinese . Can you please tell me where should i start.. like I'm confused .
Can i get your phone number i just want to learn Chinese
Great teaching...easy ways to chat up was really helpful...thank you and keep it up
Actually I never knew that Chinese has alphabets,
I thought I should just memorize every word and I can never read any new words unless I'm already familiar with it
This alphabet is barely used to write a text, I've seen it used to characters that you can't write in you phone or to don't write a curse word... This is used in dictionaries and it shows how to pronounce some character. I can write "shui jiao", but it can mean 睡觉 (sleep) 水饺 (a chinese food) 谁叫 (who is called ...), And a lot of different words, so you still need to memorize the pronunciation and meaning of each character.
If you are learning now, it's very hard at the beginning but it gets way more easier by the time
Meanwhile hyunjin.....in ur profile
Same here,😄😄😄😃
It doesn't.
Chinese doesn't really, there have been a few Romanization systems developed and bopomofo is pretty much exclusively used as an input method. Chinese does have an alphabet of sorts in the form of components. It's just that they aren't used the way that an alphabet is used. They're arranged into a character and can be used to guess the likely meanings and pronuncation of an unknown character. In the mainland you'll see Pinyin being used on signs as a way of helping people with poor literacy get around at times, but even with tone markers, which are usually absent, it's still a poor replacement for characters due to how many characters share the same spoken syllable and how many words only consist of one or two syllables in the first place.
But really, any effort to try and view Chinese as having an alphabet is going to be misleading and of only marginal utility, at best.
This is one of the best language teaching videos I’ve seen if not THE best and most memorable. Bravo!! You’re an amazing teacher, can’t wait to watch more of your videos.
Thank you @allie cloud! Glad it was helpful :)
Actually it's really easy for French speakers , a lot of letter sounds exactly the same in French and I absolutely love it!

Thank you @ernestosolorzano7846! Glad this was helpful to you :) That's the first time I've heard of having a southern accent, really fun ~
To me pinyin is a lot lot easier especially with the simplified form.
Note: overall your video is very interesting.
What is simplified pinyin? There is no such thing!

Thank you so much. Recently I start to learning Chinese. This helped me so much for beginner as me.
WOAHHHHHHH! You have the best English accent when compared to a normal Chinese speaker. Anyways I loooveee it.

Anyways your class is so good. It is really confusing mainly the Sh ch and Sh my tongue just died saying it.
I'm a Spanish speaker. Who's not very fluent yet in Spanish, but I like languages. I can speak Spanish, Tagalog, and Portuguese. I love kung fu movies and would like to learn Chinese to understand whats going on in the martial arts movies I love to watch. I learned a lot from this video. Gonna have to watch over and over to get it. Thanks!!
The problem is I'm not good at imagining. Except from imagining that Darren Chen became my boyfriend😂

Learn Pinyin instead. It's much easier and much more commonly used.
In your dreams😂😂😂😂😂

RIP to my mouth and tongue. 🤐
Thank you for this video. Everything is very clear and the video is fun to watch and follow.
Because I learned japanese before, I read some symbols as japanese hiragana or katakana. Like さ (sa) or ヌ (nu).
Hi Yusuf! I know what you mean. I am working on Japanese for fun and when I was learning hiragana/katakana I had the opposite effect!
yes but they pronounced differently.

Amazing video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.
I really want to learn Chinese language..
Because my best friend and BF is from china..
And I want to go China..
That's why I'm so serious for Chinese language...

I like the tutorial even if this is only for less than 20 mins! I might not easily remember them all but I got the gist of how to pronounce them bc you used common & simple English words as an example!! Great video for a beginner like me!

hi I'm confused why do we need to learn zhuyin? I'm confused because when i try to read chinese all I can see is symbol there is no alphabet
@@marieltaruc6458 zhuyin and pinyin are for pronunciation only. As you say there is no formal "Chinese alphabet" (see beginning of the video and answers to some of the other questions in the comment section) You don't have to learn zhuyin, but you will need to learn pronunciation somehow. Zhuyin is the Taiwanese pronunciation system, pinyin is from Mainland China.
I think Korean alphabet is easy to write but hard to speak
Where as Chinese is hard to write and easy to speak
I'm not lose heart I'll keep on trying to success

Lol good luck. Classical chinese is quite different to modern chinese. Even native chinese speakers are usually only able to read classical chinese properly after a highschool education. It's like trying to read shakespeare.
