    "the most important part of the sentence is at the end" just makes me realise why I didnt understand long complicated sentences.... thks!

      Yes! This even works in an essay or e-mail in Chinese culture. Instead of pointing out the main idea at the beginning, we tend to conclude in the end. If you are in a hurry, you can usually jump to the final paragraph, which is usually the conclusion.

    2:12 This sentence is totally correct if the speaker is from Guangdong province (catonese).
    Because Guangdong people do eat their friends from Fujian Province!

    i tried yo yo Chinese, Chinese for us, Yabla but your material and the presentation is the best ! Pls make a series where an episode covers 10 word vocab and mini dialogues the way you act out examples about various topics: ex. car, house, going out, ordering food, etc- this way a learner gets 10 new words or so from an episode, a bit of grammar and real examples, just an idea. Thank you!

    The way the action is positioned at the end of the sentence with the additional information presented before it, is quite similar to how sentences were structured in Old English. Things somehow got flipped around in modern English though, I don't know how that happened.

    Hi, I'm new in your channel. i've watched some other videos and found this very useful; however I have a question: when it comes to say "this is my favorite...." Can I only use "最喜欢的" for the statement or using this "最爱" is also right? I'm confused because I saw "最爱" in a song and when I search for the meaning it said "favorite" so... I don´t know which of them to use.

    I think you need a video on how to not be discouraged after years of learning and forgetting because it is hard to get Mandarin speakers to talk to in small towns even on the web because they are twelve to thirteen hours away. Perhaps Chinese learning English are used to tough teaching but at least some Americans need to know how to get out of the "valley of despair."
