Hhh though grammar has a little problem, i can still understand what you want to say. You are petty good. in Chinese, a more appreciate expression is “谢谢，这个（视频）真的对我有所帮助，我在60岁时开始学习中文，我喜欢它” Same as u, i am practicing my poor English and japanese, it's also really hard to me LOL.
I've been very on and off of trying to learn Chinese these past couple months but with the methods and the great ideas I got from this video it's definitely something I think I'll be able to stick to and hopefully excel in. Great video!
Thank you. Very inspiring. I am a Singapore-Chinese and English is what I use to think and communicate in. So I will look into Mandarin Blueprint to help me attain my secret wish to also be good in my native language and be able to connect with Native Speakers and re-connect with the Chinese culture.
l‘m a Chinese，is there anyone willing to teach me English？I can teach you Chinese（simplified or traditional）or Chinese dialects……Anything as long as you teach me English well！😊
Yes brother i can teach you English my English level is fluently and I am living in China and as a new student I face many difficulties to learn chinees so we can help each other if you want
Great content, these videos are jam packed with gold. And very well produced. Thanks for sharing your personal experiences as well. 谢谢! I want to encourage UA-cam to promote these videos more heavily.
One issue with what you say at 5:15 is that not all tutors or classrooms use traditional methods. There are comprehensible input teachers for almost every language out there, and teachers who use CI and TPRS in the classroom.
My university Spanish class was like this. By the end of the third class, I was confidently able (not fluently though) to speak with native speakers and understand their fast speech. Grammar and such were still talked about in detail, but 95% of it (since day 1 of class 1) was spoken in Spanish, and since the class was small, all us students got a lot of speaking practice. It was really hard but really rewarding.
I understand how Chinese sentence structures can be a bit confusing at times. To help you get a clearer understanding, I’ve attached a resource : www.mandarinblueprint.com/blog/chinese-sentence-structure/ However, if you're looking to master sentence formation comprehensively, I recommend checking out our course. We break down these concepts in detail : www.mandarinblueprint.com/buy-the-blueprint/
A great video. Our university teacher made us learn Greek by heart. We had to remember a bunch of sentences in a short period of time and we then had to take tests. It was so exhausting. Now i don't remember anything unfortunately. I've learned Spanish by myself and now my level is intermediate. I learn it without any pressure or stress. That's what I want to do with Chinese, too. I listen to your pieces of advice as well. Thank you.
Thank you Coach for these precious advices , I started learning simple things about Chinese almost a month ago, And I wanted to make a real good plan to study “ Faster “ , But when you said your last advice I just felt so emotional 😅 , it is funny Ik but i have already learned 2 languages before , I learned English by myself and unconsciously Became really fluent without even touching any textbooks , Just because I loved the language & i’m still missing up sometimes and I’m still learning & i’m happy , And almost a lil more than a year ago I started learning Korean and I really enjoyed it Until I reached an upper intermediate Level in less than a year Just because I ENJOYED IT , but I found myself a lil nervous about Chinese But with your advice I just remembered all the good times i had studying the Chinese basics or any other languages, So I’m telling myself and anyone else reading this, Just enjoy the whole Journey & unconsciously you will find yourself in a really good level , THANK YOU SO MUCH COACH 💗
Hey there, Thank you for your interest in our course . We totally understand the budget constraints . you might be interested in our MB Challenge priced at $7 USD. This challenge grants access to phases 1-3 of the MB Method for either 15 days or 30 days, depending on your preference. You can find more information on this option through the following link www.mandarinblueprint.com/challenge/
One thing i think would be great to add to the videos when you are speaking Mandarin in the intros etc to have the characters and pinyin below the English translation - helps to connect it all
Your videos are really genuine with great advices, i saw many videos of people who would just pretend they were good, and that they learned chinese fluently in 6 months
Hey man I have been learning Chinese mandarin for a few months, I was consistent and still am , but sadly can't spend much time on learning, I am a student, after my exams,I will study for at least an hour every day and I hope that I would at least will be a little bit fluent if I learn the language for about two years like this .There is a UA-camr his name is Victor and channel name victor talking, he says that you are wasting your time if you are learning a language on your own , he says that you can only learn a language by getting a teacher. So what do you think can someone learn language on their own?If they really work hard and listen a lot?
Very detailed information and great advice. Somewhat different approach to learning that I have been doing so far. I agree that the roadmap is very important from the start, it allows to visualize the path it will take to get to your individual goals. Thank you :)
I found this video motivating. Good advice and just a nice video. I listen to chinese music a lot, and I'm wondering, how much does it help me as a chinese learner?
That's great to hear you found our video motivating! Thanks for watching . Listening to Chinese music can significantly help you as a learner. It improves your listening skills, helps you get used to the natural flow of the language, and exposes you to new vocabulary and expressions. Immersing yourself in the language is key to getting to fluency
What do you think about my strategy in which I'm now learning with Integrated Chinese textbook to achieve first 1500 characters, by reading dialogues and then memorizing vocab with Anki. Finally doing listening and writing exercises with workbook.
Sounds alright, but with our course The Blueprint, it would be faster and more fun. Not just trying to sell stuff, promise. For realz it would be a far better experience for you in our humble opinion.
Definitely! and in terms of budget constraints, I'd recommend checking out our Fluency Foundation, which will grant you access to Phases 1-5 of our course and is quite affordable www.mandarinblueprint.com/get-fluency-foundations/

Hi,I am a Chinese who wants to communicate with foreign friends. I can help foreign friends who want to learn Chinese speak Chinese. I also want to learn English and communicate with others in this way.Can we be friends?
As someone who doesn't speak chinese at all, I can confirm that I have no clue if he's actually speaking intelligible chinese or just random sounds but it sure sounds like chinese!
It means focusing on learning the most commonly used words and phrases, which make up a large portion of everyday conversations. This approach helps you communicate effectively in a shorter amount of time.
In Mandarin Blueprint we have methods to help memorize characters. One of them is Traverse Flashcards. I’d head over to Mandarinblueprint.com and check out the resources provided there to help you learn characters!
I feel inferior ... A foreigner speaking Chinese is more standard than a native of China. I speak Chinese with a little masculine accent, which sometimes leads me to confuse the front nasal sound with the back nasal sound, and my tongue is flat and upturned.
What do you call it, I'm come from China, I'm a beginner in the English language, if you don't mind, we can exchange language learning, you teach me English and I teach you Chinese!🥰
I have some daunting statistics when asking Chat gpt how many sentences can be constructed with the 150 words in HSK1. The HSK 1 vocabulary consists of 150 words, not 150 characters. These words can be combined in various ways to form sentences. However, calculating the exact number of sentences that can be created from these words would depend on factors like sentence structure, grammar, and context. ### Simple Estimation If we consider even a very basic sentence structure (subject + verb + object), and assume that: - You can choose any word as the subject. - Any word can serve as the verb (although in reality, not all words would work as verbs). - Any word can be the object. Then, the number of possible combinations would be: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = (\text{Number of Subjects}) \times (\text{Number of Verbs}) \times (\text{Number of Objects}) \] With 150 words, this gives: \[ 150 \times 150 \times 150 = 3,375,000 \text{ possible sentences} \] However, this is a very rough estimate, as not all combinations would be grammatically correct or meaningful. The real number of valid sentences is likely much lower, depending on how strictly you define what counts as a valid sentence. Would you like a more detailed breakdown or exploration of specific sentence structures? Let's dive into some of the most common sentence structures that can be formed using the 150 words in HSK 1. We'll explore several basic structures, calculate the potential number of sentences for each, and discuss how different grammatical rules affect these possibilities. ### 1. **Basic Sentence Structures** #### a) Subject + Verb (S + V) This is the simplest sentence structure where the subject (S) performs an action (V). **Example:** - **我吃** ("I eat") - **他看** ("He watches") **Potential Combinations:** - **Subject:** Pronouns like 我 (wǒ - I), 你 (nǐ - you), 他 (tā - he), 她 (tā - she), etc. - **Verb:** 吃 (chī - eat), 看 (kàn - watch), 说 (shuō - speak), etc. Assuming 10 common subjects and around 50 verbs: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 50 = 500 \text{ sentences} \] #### b) Subject + Verb + Object (S + V + O) This structure is a bit more complex, adding an object that the verb acts upon. **Example:** - **我吃苹果** ("I eat apples") - **她看书** ("She reads a book") **Potential Combinations:** - **Subject:** Same as above. - **Verb:** Same as above. - **Object:** Common objects like 苹果 (píngguǒ - apple), 书 (shū - book), 水 (shuǐ - water), etc. If we assume 10 subjects, 50 verbs, and 50 objects: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 50 \times 50 = 25,000 \text{ sentences} \] #### c) Subject + Adjective (S + Adj) This structure describes the subject using an adjective. **Example:** - **苹果红** ("The apple is red") - **他高** ("He is tall") **Potential Combinations:** - **Subject:** Common nouns or pronouns. - **Adjective:** 红 (hóng - red), 高 (gāo - tall), 大 (dà - big), etc. Assuming 10 subjects and 20 adjectives: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 = 200 \text{ sentences} \] ### 2. **Extended Sentence Structures** #### a) Subject + Verb + Adjective (S + V + Adj) Here, the verb is followed by an adjective to describe the action or state. **Example:** - **他走快** ("He walks quickly") - **她说慢** ("She speaks slowly") **Potential Combinations:** - **Subject:** Same as above. - **Verb:** Verbs that can be followed by an adjective. - **Adjective:** 快 (kuài - fast), 慢 (màn - slow), etc. Assuming 10 subjects, 20 verbs, and 10 adjectives: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 \times 10 = 2,000 \text{ sentences} \] #### b) Subject + Verb + Prepositional Phrase (S + V + PP) This structure adds a prepositional phrase to provide more context. **Example:** - **他在家看书** ("He reads a book at home") - **我在学校吃饭** ("I eat at school") **Potential Combinations:** - **Subject:** Same as above. - **Verb:** Verbs that make sense with a location or time. - **Prepositional Phrase:** 在家 (zài jiā - at home), 在学校 (zài xuéxiào - at school), etc. Assuming 10 subjects, 20 verbs, and 10 prepositional phrases: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 \times 10 = 2,000 \text{ sentences} \] ### 3. **Compound Sentences** #### a) Subject + Verb + Object + Conjunction + Subject + Verb + Object (S + V + O + Conj + S + V + O) These are more complex sentences that use conjunctions like 和 (hé - and), 但是 (dànshì - but) to link two clauses. **Example:** - **我吃苹果和他喝水** ("I eat an apple, and he drinks water") - **她看书但是我不看** ("She reads a book, but I don't") **Potential Combinations:** - **Conjunctions:** 和, 但是, etc. - Combine possibilities from previous SVO structures. \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 25,000 \times 25,000 \times (\text{Number of Conjunctions}) \] For simplicity, assume 2 conjunctions: \[ \text{Total Sentences} = 25,000 \times 25,000 \times 2 = 1,250,000,000 \text{ sentences} \] ### 4. **Negative Sentences** Negative sentences can be formed by adding 不 (bù) before the verb. **Example:** - **我不吃苹果** ("I don't eat apples") - **他不看书** ("He doesn't read a book") **Potential Combinations:** - Just multiply the possible combinations by 2 to account for the affirmative and negative forms. \[ \text{Total Sentences} = (\text{Total from above structures}) \times 2 \] ### Conclusion With all these structures combined, the number of potential sentences that can be formed from the 150 words in HSK 1 is vast. However, not all of them would be meaningful or grammatically correct. The real number of valid sentences would depend heavily on context and grammar rules. Even with conservative estimates, you're looking at millions of possible sentences. This analysis gives a rough idea of the diversity of sentences that can be constructed using the basic vocabulary provided by HSK 1.

One issue with what you say at 5:15 is that not all tutors or classrooms use traditional methods. There are comprehensible input teachers for almost every language out there, and teachers who use CI and TPRS in the classroom.

How about your writing, do you prioritize that to some degree or you don't because you can just recognise characters and type them out by phone.
I don't bother with writing by hand too much, just typing is fine

中文其实很简单的哈哈哈哈哈 but English is very difficult for me!!
What do you mean by 80 percentage frequency
It means focusing on learning the most commonly used words and phrases, which make up a large portion of everyday conversations. This approach helps you communicate effectively in a shorter amount of time.
such good advice
Glad you found it valuable!
The way i memorize chinese characters is screen shotting the characters then going back to the screen shot and reviewing it is that fine?🤔

😂oh my Gosh
I have some daunting statistics when asking Chat gpt how many sentences can be constructed with the 150 words in HSK1.
The HSK 1 vocabulary consists of 150 words, not 150 characters. These words can be combined in various ways to form sentences. However, calculating the exact number of sentences that can be created from these words would depend on factors like sentence structure, grammar, and context.
### Simple Estimation
If we consider even a very basic sentence structure (subject + verb + object), and assume that:
- You can choose any word as the subject.
- Any word can serve as the verb (although in reality, not all words would work as verbs).
- Any word can be the object.
Then, the number of possible combinations would be:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = (\text{Number of Subjects}) \times (\text{Number of Verbs}) \times (\text{Number of Objects}) \]
With 150 words, this gives:
\[ 150 \times 150 \times 150 = 3,375,000 \text{ possible sentences} \]
However, this is a very rough estimate, as not all combinations would be grammatically correct or meaningful. The real number of valid sentences is likely much lower, depending on how strictly you define what counts as a valid sentence.
Would you like a more detailed breakdown or exploration of specific sentence structures?
Let's dive into some of the most common sentence structures that can be formed using the 150 words in HSK 1. We'll explore several basic structures, calculate the potential number of sentences for each, and discuss how different grammatical rules affect these possibilities.
### 1. **Basic Sentence Structures**
#### a) Subject + Verb (S + V)
This is the simplest sentence structure where the subject (S) performs an action (V).
**Example:**
- **我吃** ("I eat")
- **他看** ("He watches")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Subject:** Pronouns like 我 (wǒ - I), 你 (nǐ - you), 他 (tā - he), 她 (tā - she), etc.
- **Verb:** 吃 (chī - eat), 看 (kàn - watch), 说 (shuō - speak), etc.
Assuming 10 common subjects and around 50 verbs:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 50 = 500 \text{ sentences} \]
#### b) Subject + Verb + Object (S + V + O)
This structure is a bit more complex, adding an object that the verb acts upon.
**Example:**
- **我吃苹果** ("I eat apples")
- **她看书** ("She reads a book")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Subject:** Same as above.
- **Verb:** Same as above.
- **Object:** Common objects like 苹果 (píngguǒ - apple), 书 (shū - book), 水 (shuǐ - water), etc.
If we assume 10 subjects, 50 verbs, and 50 objects:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 50 \times 50 = 25,000 \text{ sentences} \]
#### c) Subject + Adjective (S + Adj)
This structure describes the subject using an adjective.
**Example:**
- **苹果红** ("The apple is red")
- **他高** ("He is tall")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Subject:** Common nouns or pronouns.
- **Adjective:** 红 (hóng - red), 高 (gāo - tall), 大 (dà - big), etc.
Assuming 10 subjects and 20 adjectives:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 = 200 \text{ sentences} \]
### 2. **Extended Sentence Structures**
#### a) Subject + Verb + Adjective (S + V + Adj)
Here, the verb is followed by an adjective to describe the action or state.
**Example:**
- **他走快** ("He walks quickly")
- **她说慢** ("She speaks slowly")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Subject:** Same as above.
- **Verb:** Verbs that can be followed by an adjective.
- **Adjective:** 快 (kuài - fast), 慢 (màn - slow), etc.
Assuming 10 subjects, 20 verbs, and 10 adjectives:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 \times 10 = 2,000 \text{ sentences} \]
#### b) Subject + Verb + Prepositional Phrase (S + V + PP)
This structure adds a prepositional phrase to provide more context.
**Example:**
- **他在家看书** ("He reads a book at home")
- **我在学校吃饭** ("I eat at school")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Subject:** Same as above.
- **Verb:** Verbs that make sense with a location or time.
- **Prepositional Phrase:** 在家 (zài jiā - at home), 在学校 (zài xuéxiào - at school), etc.
Assuming 10 subjects, 20 verbs, and 10 prepositional phrases:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 10 \times 20 \times 10 = 2,000 \text{ sentences} \]
### 3. **Compound Sentences**
#### a) Subject + Verb + Object + Conjunction + Subject + Verb + Object (S + V + O + Conj + S + V + O)
These are more complex sentences that use conjunctions like 和 (hé - and), 但是 (dànshì - but) to link two clauses.
**Example:**
- **我吃苹果和他喝水** ("I eat an apple, and he drinks water")
- **她看书但是我不看** ("She reads a book, but I don't")
**Potential Combinations:**
- **Conjunctions:** 和, 但是, etc.
- Combine possibilities from previous SVO structures.
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 25,000 \times 25,000 \times (\text{Number of Conjunctions}) \]
For simplicity, assume 2 conjunctions:
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = 25,000 \times 25,000 \times 2 = 1,250,000,000 \text{ sentences} \]
### 4. **Negative Sentences**
Negative sentences can be formed by adding 不 (bù) before the verb.
**Example:**
- **我不吃苹果** ("I don't eat apples")
- **他不看书** ("He doesn't read a book")
**Potential Combinations:**
- Just multiply the possible combinations by 2 to account for the affirmative and negative forms.
\[ \text{Total Sentences} = (\text{Total from above structures}) \times 2 \]
### Conclusion
With all these structures combined, the number of potential sentences that can be formed from the 150 words in HSK 1 is vast. However, not all of them would be meaningful or grammatically correct. The real number of valid sentences would depend heavily on context and grammar rules. Even with conservative estimates, you're looking at millions of possible sentences.
This analysis gives a rough idea of the diversity of sentences that can be constructed using the basic vocabulary provided by HSK 1.
