      ​@HarbinMandarin I seen a a couple videos today by Chinese teachers that kept saying to never say that. Then I seen this video... I'm glad you clarified it it, not by just talking, but showing real stats, and the history of its origin

    There are a lot of haters on UA-cam. Don’t listen to them. You obviously know what you’re doing. So keep up the great work. I happen to like the videos that would help me from day to day life. For instance, “where is the restroom?” Or something like, “where is a good place to eat?” General things like that. Thank you for taking the time and effort to make these videos to teach someone like me to speak a new language.

      but it's true tho. i mean, you can totally say "you're welcome" and "how are you?", but those just sound weirdly formal sometimes. if you don't want to sound robotic, it is best to avoid those standard textbook phrases!

      @martinhartecfc 3 роки тому +1

      @@hannalowercase5928 I don't think it's true. I say both of these things (not often, but I do say them). It's a long way from "these expressions are more formal than your textbook probably implies" to "don't say X". "You're welcome" in particular sounds perfectly natural to me. If I taught my students to say "ha ha don't be daft" (what I usually say in response to "thanks"), I would worry that natives from another country might not find this very elegant.

    Thank you for your videos! Today is my 77th birthday, and about a week ago I decided to learn Mandarin. I am fortunate to have a Chinese friend who is very helpful, and it was he who referred me to your videos.
    This isn't a casual pursuit for me. My first goal is to pass the HSK 1 and 2 exams by the end of next year. I plan to work toward eventually passing the HSK6 exam - but have no idea how many years that might take. Being older actually presents an advantage in such a pursuit. Being retired, I can spent as many hours as I wish each day working toward my goals.
    Again, thank you very much for helping me get starting on this endeavor.
    Oh ... yes! I would like to see more videos that explore Mandarin as a reflection of the current culture.

    If I wasn’t a native English speaker, I would want my teacher to teach me how to say: “Hello. Good morning. How are you?” than tell me that this way is “too formal” or “too traditional”, and to say, “Hey, what’s up?” instead.
    It’s a new (and disturbing) fad on UA-cam to promote street slang and go against proper diction and traditional greetings.
    But new learners to a language should always learn to speak properly and politely. (And you can NEVER be too polite!)

    I often see videos on UA-cam telling English learners not to say things that I (another native speaker) definitely do sometimes say. It just seems to be a way content creators can get around the algorithm (and if they are sincere, I can't really blame them). I guess the same must go for videos teaching Chinese. Thank you for clearing this up for us. In case you ever read this, I spend much of my working life listening to Chinese students speak English and I'm in awe at your English grammar.

    I think you did a great job explaining why it's ok to say Ni Hao Ma. I now understand why I may hear one Chinese say to another Chinese "Ni chi le ma? and why I should not say it to strangers. Before, when I said it, the Chinese I addressed would assume that as a foreigner I wanted to know if they had eaten and not how s/he was doing. This then gave me a chance to ask in Chinese, "Ni chi le ma gen ni hao yi yang ma?
    While learning Chinese in China I hated being taught something but then later finding out that what I had learned was a dumb-down version of what Chinese people actually say to one another. For example, "Ni hao" is how a Chinese get someone's attention and not "dui bu qi".
    When I asked my teacher(s) about this (and other dumb-downed words/phrases), the reply would be...Chinese is so hard or I didn't think you could understand. For this reason, I now do self-studies.

    Ive seen so many videos show up with a title/thumbnail that says you shouldnt say these phrases, but I never watch them, I would rather hear it from an actual teacher that I trust (like you) or ask a few chinese friends what they think. Thank you for clearing this up! I wish people would stop spreading the misinformation about what you can or cannot say.

    Very interesting. It confirmed my suspicion that it was handled differently. No wonder in such a big country.

    Your video has been very helpful because I noticed those videos saying “ don’t use ni hao ma “ . I got confused. But now I know when to use it or not use it. And you can do both grammar and culture ( but mostly grammar though ). Thank you.

    It is good to have as main stream grammar and vocabulary however sessions like this one are also very useful, insighful and informative. They give additional contexto and will prevent people from making basic mistakes. For me personally it was very interesting that you have such a wide range of greetings starting from very casual ones. I feel I understand the casuality logic behind. Thank you again!
