I watch Peppa Pig videos in Mandarin too! It's definitely helping me learn, but now I oink after every three or four words.
My mom made the same joke! Hahaha!
Lmfao
Hahahaha
Hahahahahahahahaa
I tried watching them once but they were too hard for me. 😿😿😂
That's why total immersion works.
Yeah, it's the BEST!
Great video!! Thanks so much for the shout out and I'm glad you've been having so much success with input learning! 💪
When Xiao Zhan appeared at 2:51, my The Untamed feels just went gaga! Yibo and Zhan is the reason behind my undying desire for learning mandarin...
Haha, yes indeed! Attractive people are always good motivation! 😂
@@jjsaysnyc oh my gush, I got noticed! Much love for you and your channel from 🇵🇭!
@@jjsaysnyc no lack of that in C-drama land 😉
Saaame😂😍
yeah The Untamed ewe
Seems like I've been doing this for the 2-3 years that I have been actually self-learning Chinese! I can totally vow to this method. My parents are Chinese but I grew up outside of China. My mother tongue is Taishanese which is totally different from Mandarin. After moving to the U.S. and seeing that so many people here know mandarin and their mother tongue (any Chinese dialect) I FELT SO EMBARRASSED I DIDN'T. My cousin introduced me to Hong Kong dramas (Cantonese is similar to Taishanese both come from the same region, Guangdong) but I stirred away into Chinese dramas. I started watching with English subs but then I fell in love with many Chinese actors and well decided to watch their dramas regardless of English subs. Since a year ago, I started to not care if there are subs or not, I will watch it. Now, I can fluently speak to my mom in three different dialects which is AWESOME!
WOW- that's such an inspiring story, Cloudy! Thanks so much for sharing! I'm so happy someone else in the comments can attest to this! 😚🙌
Absolutely agreed , I have been watching only chinese drama for 2 years & on the third year (this year) ,I am able to understand many conversations on c drama ( modern ) without subtitles .
YES! Amazing! I'm so glad! I have to do more of that TOO now! I'll catch up soon! Haha! 😆
My English level was boosted at a higher rate when I started watching UA-cam English contents on a daily basis. Immense input and practicing, to me, is the only way to improve language proficiency.
I recommend Hustle for learning English
Really, anything, not just language.
Absolutely. Everyone asks me "how do you speak English so well?!", Well, everything started when I started watching yt videos in English, now I only watch videos in English....
What's your favorite channel?
@@relaxwhc hustle? What is that? Can you explain more about this...
Showing myself love from my second channel! Self love's important you guys... don't hate ✌️
Totally agree, I'm in the reversed situation as you, I'm a Chinese dude who is learning English through consuming tons of American TV shows, UA-cam, Twitch and video games, it's fun.
Have you tried Elsa speak app?
Just like Cassandra in Wayne’s World.
Of course ure stark!
我很想问你们是怎么制作anki卡片的，我感觉制作卡片很花时间
What part of China are you from?
我是台灣人，您對媽媽非常孝順，果然有受到中華文化的影響，祝福您！
I am learning Chinese and I am 11 years old and I help my mum a bit
I agree with you 100%. Another HUGE thing that helped me get really good with Korean was reading books! Especially books for kids and elementary school students. It’s difficult at first, but once you get through a few books, the basic grammar and structure always remain with you.
"our target languages are different" [but i can sorta read his target language] THANKS, CHIPPY.
I started watching Chinese dramas which increased my interest in Chinese, then watching UA-cam videos, building glossaries and I just finished my first semester of Chinese at a community college and did very well in the class. I’m enrolled in the second half. This year I had planned to travel either to Taiwan or China then the pandemic decided otherwise. There is nothing better than traveling to the country where they speak the language. It’s baptism by fire. When I was learning French, traveling to France and having conversations with French friends increased my understanding of the culture, the institutions, how people really speak, not text book French. I hope next year I’ll be able to travel again. Getting my Covid vaccine in a week or two. I work in healthcare. Hope everyone in the world will also have access to one and we can get somewhat back to normal. Stay safe and keep learning and growing. Never too late to learn. I’m in my 60’s.
It was Chinese dramas that got me interested in learning the language in the first place. At 68, I have been learning through both online courses and through watching the programs. At first I thought I would never learn this language but as the time has gone on, I am surprised at how much I know. I am no where near proficiency in the language and am always looking for ways to up my learning. I just find the language so fascinating and have made the learning a part of my daily routine. I just found your UA-cam site today and look forward to viewing your videos. I am a far cry from speaking the language comfortably with someone who's mother tongue is Mandarin, however, my comprehension grows stronger each day which is encouraging. Thanks for creating your channel.❤️
I love both Matt vs Japan and your channels. So glad you discovered him- his advice is great!
Thanks so much! Yeah, his content is top tier! Super good stuff!
I would also say it's super important to find shows you're interested in watching, even if you have to turn on English subs. Even if you're a beginner (or low intermediate like me) you can still enjoy shows like The Untamed (excellent show btw!), and because you're interested you'll spend more time with it and improve your level
That's exactly right! Interest is a very important factor!
The Untamed is the reason I started learning Mandarin in the first place.
@Heike Stoll Oh wow! I really need to check out this show! 😆
@@jjsaysnyc you absolutely do. I binged all 50 episodes in 4 days. It’s a helluva ride! Honestly the best show I have ever seen.
Yesss! Love these type of videos!! Thanks for your advice!
I'm so glad it's helpful! 💕
2:51 Xiao Zhan is the main reason for me to learn mandarin chinese))
thank you so much after watching some of your pervious videos I started to learn the characters and vocabulary through writing too, I now can read and *write* about 260 characters and I am so happy.
That's AMAZING progress! WOW! Keep it up! That's an incredible job! 😆🙌
How do you remember them? Do you write practice sentences, or make flashcards of the words? I want to try this but always find I forget the words from the day or week before. I haven't mastered keeping old words while learning new ones.
Good to see you after long days.
Such an amazing video ❤️❤️❤️. Really appreciate 🙏
As a beginner, I learned 90 percent of my Chinese from your and Xiaoma's food-ordering videos. It was really great to learn the first successes of a difficult language with so much fun. You are great, thank you very much for that! Greetings from Berlin.
I love both of your channels! I've learned a lot from both of you, as well as from Xiaoma and Oriental Pearl. I constantly have something playing in Mandarin on my tv or phone. You all have greatly influenced my language learning. Please keep making videos!
you are right! I am topping up my chinese by watching Chinese cartoons. It helps me understand the natural flow of chinese speakers, so that when a native speaker talks to me, I can understand and not feel overwhelmed.
I love your videos ❤️ thank you for your advice!!!
2:52 肖战！！！！ 😍
Lovely passion you have and lovely person you are! Thank you for sharing your life adventures with such a joyful enthusiasm!!! It is so encouraging and uplifting!
天才智慧聰明才華記憶第一名。佩服老外說Chinese
Everyone needs a great language nerd friend :) Thank you for your perspective and insight!
Thank you so much! 💕
This video was really inspiring and helped me a lot, thank you so much
I never even thought of this before- thank you for the advice!!
You're very welcome! Cute dog in your avatar! 💕
you're my inspiration !!!
ayyy this is how i learnt chinese mandarin and english growing up. i came from a cantonese speaking family and growing up i immersed myself in a lot of mandarin and english cartoons, as well as cantonese movies. i highly recommend this method over memorising a vocab list. immerse first, memorise second
Really really enjoy listening to your English
Wow, thank you so much! I really appreciate that!
@@jjsaysnyc 不知道你玩不玩全民K歌？有一个双语诗朗诵徐志摩的 再别康桥。还有你什么时候上传🉑🉑多海的牧羊人，好期待......
listening to podcasts have skyrocketed my Mandarin learning, totally agree!
Thank you for amazing tips.
Thanks so much for the tips. JJ. I’m going to try Anki
Love your channel!
Thanks for this information!
girl u are amazing!
Thank you so much for creating these helpful videos! It makes me really inspired and motivated to keep learning! One of the first tv-shows I watched in chinese was The Untamed and that made me just fall in love completelly with the language. It's still my main goal to be fluent enough to read the original books in simplified mandarin.
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences & techniques with mandarin. You are awesome!
Liked before watching gang 🤘🤘
Hahaha, thanks, brother! ✊
This Is Awesome!!! Thank you so much!!! You are a big Inspiration to me!!!!💕⭐
That means so much to me! Thank you for saying so! 💕😆
Very good experience . thank you !
Love you jj! I am a Chinese Canadian living in California. I am fluent in Chinese but I still love your channel
Something I have found very useful to improve your listening ability and vocabulary is teleshopping. Yes, teleshopping. It is all about describing products/objects and repeating the same words over and over again in no more than 10 minutes. You get to hear different people speaking the same words and short scripted dialogues And you might find something you need and never knew before , too. LOL
你是最棒的! JJ! 加油! 保重! 🙏🙏
谢谢！🙏💕
Nice to see u again JJ
You’re so articulate! Love to listen to you! BTW, Your speaking Chinese is Amazing! Almost like a native Chinese person! 👍👍👍
Thank you so so much for your channel and everything you do!
It was a big struggle for me to start remembering my Chinese, I just couldn't find any motivation. And you're a huuge inspiration! Besides, you're so sweet and genuine.
In one of your videos you asked about some ideas.. probably you could tell how your mum learned Chinese?
Already the way im learning. Works.

Bon courage!!!......^-^
German people should watch John Rabe 拉贝日记
海绵宝宝
So informative! Thanks a lot J J🥰
Thank you so much for watching!
Hi, JJ. I don't know if you actually read comments, but anyway... I'm so grateful to Matt that he let me find him. I stumbled across him a few months ago and I feel it's very possible that it changed my life and I'll probably never turn back to what I was doing in the past. I'm a polyglot and I've been studying Chinese for a few years now. And I suck. I'm subscribed to your channel exactly in order to listen to (high quality) Chinese. But this wasn't the base of my study. My method was veeeeery different. But I applied what Matt recommended and I feel it works so well... I'm very happy for you that you found him too and his advice helped you. Thank you, Matt!
I’m a super beginner at the moment, and I have seen a few shows on Netflix and some cooking channels on the Tube. Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your wisdom!! I’m new to the channel and can’t wait to catch up on all your vids 💜😁
謝謝 such a useful video, thanks x
Thank you!!!!
雪莲，做为美国人，努力成就自己，非常感人
谢谢你的支持！💕
She’s so pretty 🥺🥺🥺🥺
I also like Matt vs Japan. His Japanese is so good he must be doing something right 😁
I can't stop watching your videos. JJ I just subscribed to you after watching so many videos of Xiaoma.
Hi JJ! I am taking Mandarin for school and I love your videos! They are a really big help and they are great! Keep up the great videos!
Thanks, Kalina! ❤️
@@jjsaysnyc And I would love it if you sang 月亮代表我的心
@Kalina Skye I did with my mom! You can find it on my channel! 💕
I love using C-dramas to help me learn, even if they are a bit above my level... two good things about them, one is that they almost always have Mandarin subtitles to go with them (thank you China, very helpful!) and the second is that the desire to understand what's going on is a very good motivator to learn! My favourites are Legend of White Snake and Ashes of Love, but I will definitely be watching Peppa Pig for something a bit more comprehensible! 谢谢雪莲！
哇欧，雪莲好棒啊！爱了爱了！ Excellent!👍❤️🍎
I love you Jilian, thank you for your tips. I had an intermediate level 3 years ago but because of a lack of practising my level is lower, but anyways it's important to practice and not comparing ourselves to other ppl. 我们加油吧
actually the learning process is like a travel which you learn to enjoy all the steps ...
and it makes the process more interesting and exciting
Thank you so much for your advices! I'm learning Mandarin Chinese as my third language and sometimes it gets challenging, is always pleasant to receive help!
I study everyday because I have time and actually enjoy it.
My routine starts in the morning with some writing, pronunciation tests, lessons, podcast and audio-news with subtitles. During the day I try to use as much vocabulary as possible (for example: when I go to the supermarket I tend to name the things I'm buying)
Lately I've been seeing some dramas and it is surprising to notice how they use some words as expressions.
Love from México!
Thanks for watching! It's so nice to hear you've been enjoying the studying process! Keep up the good work and effort! 👍
Listening your video today 31 Jan '21...Thanks a lot
Recommendation for your mom: 'Let Go Of My Baby' is also a program about little kids. I've been watching it recently and it was really helpful
Great😻🌻
Thank you Jj😍💗
Love how the music is WAY in the background thank you!
Real Life Language Input! I love it. I've just started using Netflix and I use the Netflix for Languages Extension - the subtitles are a great way to add to your vocabulary. :-) Thank you for continuing to inspire me! Good for your Mum watching Peppa Pig. When I first started learning Mandarin, I used to watch nursery rhymes!
I didn't even know there was a Language Extension for netflix! I will have to look into that! Thank you!
I love your channel. 🇲🇳🇲🇳🇲🇳
Omg I’ve been watching “Ben and Holly’s Little Kingdom” and “Peppa Pig” in my target language (Italian) for 2 months!!! I love this method and I’m so glad you mentioned it JJ ❤️ Thanks for this awesome video!!!
Hi thank you for introducing some interesting applications and techniques for memorizing. I just started to learn Chinese as well and found your advise is really helpful.
You are genius really welcome
Like, the thing, I have been studying Chinese for 5 months and of course I first did some basic stuff like grammar structures etc, but I NEVER actually sat down and memorized vocabulary by heart. Immediately 1 week later I started watching stuff in Chinese, let it be Tv Shows, interviews, whatever. That's the thing why now my listening skills are very good as well as my pronunciation. That's the 1st thing I recommend, be around your target language as often as possible. Every night I spend 2 hours watching Tv shows in Chinese and I have a book where I write down stuff I come across while watching. Now my booklet is full, so I am having a new one. Also, I ask my "language parent" the next day about things I didn't understand the night before, let it be grammar or something else.
Now however, because I am better at Chinese than 5 months ago, I started creating vocabulary lists, organized "to do with people - verbs", example 羡慕 or 接。, as well as adjectives or also phrases, such as 有好处，泰然处之，有自信。。and so on. All those are what I have come across in those shows/interviews. What I mean is that, for ME personally, it could not have been any better, because how can one possibly improve faster than when having real life input, analysing it, speaking it, asking about it, just generally devoting oneself completely to the language?
Also, instead of a teacher I find it better to have a *language parent* , that way you interact way more and you are having more fun (Just my personal opinion).
I been doing this recently I’ve cut all other languages I’m not fluent in shows to focus on learned Chinese shows (such as meteor garden,take my brother away,wait my youth,the prince who turns into a frog, triad princess and so many others) thanks for all the useful information!!
JJsay thanks for this app! I'm a Thai-American trying to learn the Thai language, the hardest part of learning the Thai language in US is finding other Thai's to speak with. ขอขอบคุณครับ
good idea i started learning mandarin tooo
I watch a ton of dramas! Must be on the right track.
I like it when you mix Chinese and English😍
Wow! You're amazing! My must-watch C-drama recommendation is Story of Yanxi Palace《延禧攻略》 Aired in 2018 but is still AMAZING no matter what year you're watching in. It's 70 episodes long but it's worth the watch! :) (It also comes with the Chinese subtitles in the UA-cam version)
Hey JJ, I'm picking up vocabularies by watching your videos, regress and rote memorization in this video, thanks 😊
Hi Ray, that's GREAT! Thanks for your kind comment!
You are the best!!!
YOU are the best!
I'm a beginner and it was Chinese dramas that made me intrested so I continue to watch it while learning
Thank you.
Thank YOU! 😀
I like your video so much😍😍 hi I'm from Malaysia
I feel like there is a little lang universe in UA-cam now! My three favorite lang UA-camrs, JJ, Anming and Matt know each other 🥺💛 I'm manifesting a collab between you three! 👀 Thank you JJ, the DIY videos is something that I didn't think about, great tip and great vid as always 🥺
They're both the best- just really great people- intelligent and super friendly. So happy to know them both! 😚💕
around 2017 youtube language content really took off. i don't know why.
it wasn't a desert in 2014 but the Chinese language teaching content seems to have at least tripled since then, not an exaggeration.
Russian also increased but no where near as much.
Idk about other languages.
讲得非常棒！
从中文的角度看，这种音色、音调、磁性 在中文世界都很难达到， 希望你们继续努力，给你们一个好方法， 买个粤语经典碟，那里有很多经典歌曲， 中文的经典歌曲 几乎都是 粤语经典歌曲。
i've definitely picked up a LOT of phrases and words from anime
I don't why but I read in your title "The SECRET for being eternally YOUNG" 😂 I think it's because you are too beautiful!! Greetings !
Nice！
非常有用。
谢谢！😙
For language learning tips i would recommend Steve Kaufman's videos! A
He's incredible!!! 🙌
