The issue that I run into, in China, when I want to practice speaking Chinese, the Chinese person wants to practice their English. Little frustrating.
That happens with and my friends mom with Spanish she likes practice her English with me but I would prefer to practice my Spanish with her
@@sabrinadavis6832 I also had that issue when I went to China so I told my friend that I will answer in Chinese while she uses Spanish. In that way, both of us practiced and helped each other to improve pronunciation
You can kind of go both ways, though. As long as you can understand each other's questions and answers, you can practice your Chinese and they reply in English, and vice versa
I've never ran into that problem.
😂
2022.
And again, whenever I feel uninspired to practice or learn Mandarin, as always, your videos keep me fresh.
It's like looking up at someone and telling yourself, "I want to be like that when I grow up!"
So I pray that you'll always be such an inspiration not just to us, but also to yourself po.
With lots of love from the Philippines, 太谢谢了！
Hi JJ , As an American, your mandarin speaking ability is very high standard, the way you speak Mandarin is way better than many people in Hong Kong , you are a genius. Just too good . I give more than 6 stars of your presentation .
我是个正在学习英文的中文母语者。学习语言是个漫长而艰辛的过程，但是通过雪莲的视频我感觉到，文化的交流真的充满了魅力，不同文化背景的人去了解对方的思维和习惯、喜欢，这实在太有意思了，同时也鼓励了我继续学习的信心。特别要说的是雪莲的自信，乐观情绪很能给人能量，如果她在我的面前出现我也许会疯狂地爱上她😊
You speak mandarin like a second nature. I once lived in Taiwan and my biggest regret wasn’t learning the language. My quest to learn 24 years later led me to your channel. I hope I can learn from you.
this might be creepy but is true.
stare at their mouth to see in part how they are pronouncing words, and then do the same.
JJ for example has a HUGE mouth speaks VERY clearly AND uses very obvious movements. You can actually See HOW she pronounces THIS which is e.g. a very hard word (thing is even tougher). Iceland English and Greek have th as in that but only English and Icelandic have this as in thing, at least so far as I have learned which is about 20 languages. Of course I am not C2 in all of them!! I only list me as speaking a half dozen because in most I am only A1 or A2. I figure if you're not even B2 you have no business claiming to know that language. Anyway STARE AT THEIR MOUTHS but don't be too creepy
JJ btw would be an EXCELLENT ESL model speaker.
The "th" also exist in classical arabic too. It has phoneme as in "th" as in that in English, "TH" ,which is a harder sounding and "Dh" a unique sounding dental fricative alphabet. But as you might guess, contempary arabic do not have this as it is a difficult consanent. Likewise, what you said about observing the mouth is true. Most romance languages requires a lot of movement of the lips for pronouncing vowels.
I don't think you can say you know languages at A2. At the very least N1
The "th" exists in Castilian too. It is only used in colloquial Spanish in Spain
Congrats on a really, really good comment. I like your style.
I ask my Chinese friends what they're doing with their tongue and lips when trying a word that's hard for me (which is most of them). I tried the McGraw-Hill pinyin course, which is pretty good, all in all, but nothing substitutes for native speakers who can tell you exactly what they do to pronounce bopomofo in tones and tone sandhi. Also I got 3-character classic 三字经 in native voice which I listen to mostly 24/7 at low volume. Occasionally I record myself speaking no more than 5-minute portions, and let my Chinese friends critique me. I feel if I get the first two classics (includes 千字文) down pat, the rest will be smooth sailing.
Your Chinese is pretty good and definitely better than mine! Practice certainly makes perfect when it comes to language learning just like many other skills 🙌💯😎👍
tui người việt tốt nghiệp khoa tiếng Trung đây , nói thật hơi khó nghe trình tiếng Trung của bả nghe vô là biết tây nói, chưa được tự nhiên và giọng điệu sai lệch rất nhiều , nhiều người xem kênh của bả do không biết tiếng cứ tưởng bả nói giỏi chứ ai biết tiếng hoa là nhận ra ngay .
你好JJ,
我是德国人，我已经学中文学了一年半了。可是因为中文太难了，所以我真的就很慢慢地提高我的中文口语。我希望以后我的中文说话会跟你一样好。 I really appreciate watching your videos. It is helpful for me that you provide content with Chinese subtitle. So I can check my listening and listen again and again until I can understand without the subtitle. 非常感谢！Michael.
你应该多看阿福的视频，他也是德国人
@@relaxwhc 哇，一个会说中文的德国人。如果他可以做到，我也可以做到。 我一定会看他的视频。谢谢你的建议！
看你写得不错呢
@@key_to_wisdom4554 给你看一个中文非常好的德国人视频。ua-cam.com/video/VqJB9_ziY8Q/v-deo.html
I am Chinese and I just watched with fascination your video about how to learn Chinese, LOL. You are doing a phemonemal job. I am from Sichuan, so "ch", "sh", "zh" are fiendishly hard for me to pronounce, but you pronounce them wih such ease. 厉害！
Hey folks, this is actually part of my previous comment. Like that one, this is pretty long. (I'm an "old guy," aged 75, so bear with me. I'm also going into my 7th year of learning Mandarin -- my spoken Mandarin still sucks! My previous education is in law, engineering and education psychology, so I'm no stranger to learning. But Mandarin has presented me with an "ultimate challenge," as it has/had with many of my Ph.D. friends. During and after 2 years of Mandarin with Confucius Institute at U. of Hawaii, online I collected tons of courses, audio and video, so have had opportunity to contrast and compare the lot of them, including Hawaii's multi-technique, high course dropout rate, approach. I take care to keep my more negative assessments to myself.::) That aside.....
A bit more of what I've collected follows --
Taking our grammar book's Table of Contents as the Road Map for learning Mandarin, and knowing how much we all hate reading, a native speaker named BaiXue has published more than 200 "grammar bites" videos that we all should have. Her grammar video's texts are in hanzi, pinyin and English, so even though her own English is sometimes a bit hard to understand I'm glad she's turned the grammar stuff into video. We can download (mp4 video) and watch again and again, her pages and explanations, until it creeps past our learning barriers* into our brains.
(*Learning barrier: That part of our makeup that causes us to resist learning something or resist following directions, or makes us just want to play, play, play.)
ua-cam.com/video/RNwGvgk6WYU/v-deo.html
and her personal site is aboutthechineselanguage.blogspot.com/
Sentences? Sure. You can get the Glossika Mandarin course that has around 2500 words used in 3000 sentences (2-voice) presented Spaced Repetition style, and become what one of my friends calls a "serial memorizer." Some people (I'm not one of them.) claim to have good results with this approach.
HSK-focussed sentences seem a bit more appropriate. Particularly if one hopes to speak more than what I call "tourist Mandarin." Here I should say that JJ's competency is excellent, better than a few of my teachers at U of Hawaii.

One way to cope with the complexity of application of any character is to plug it into ChinesePod's Chinese dictionary site,
chinesepod.com/dictionary/english-chinese/
which will give you a list of sentences using the word/character in increasingly more complicated contexts, i.e., from beginner to advanced, e.g. 会 (huì, meeting) 我们什么时候开会？wǒmen shénme shíhou kāihuì？When is the meeting? to
亲爱的，我开完会了！qīnàide，wǒ kāi wán huì le！ Honey, I finished the meeting!
Wowaweeeeeeee ! Thanks anyway. I’ll get some tips from you
Many thanks for taking the time to post all of this information with links. Very helpful.
I'm not learning Chinese yet, I came here to see what I can adapt to the language I am currently learning. But I would like to take a moment to deeply thank you for the immense advice/resources you are sharing with us. I will definitely save this for when start learning Chinese (in the near future). Thank you very much for your help and consideration to your fellow learners.
Thank you ! This is very helpfull
John Carpenter, I came back here to back read your input. I’m considering to buy all the HSK books however I prefer had there been online version like pleco
I started doing the repetition like you said with sentences and it’s a game changer. Thanks for that hint it’s working wonders
Yes, repetition helps! My focus is listening-speaking, not writing-reading yet.
I learned a lot in a week from an app! Immersive Chinese (on Android). Each chapter/lesson teaches you 5 words at a time; then sentences or phrases are formed with those words in various ways. Samples:
wǒ= I/my
péngyou = friend
de= possessive
nǐ= you
wǒ de péngyou (my friend)
nǐ de péngyou (your friend)
wǒ de péngyou de péngyou (my friend's friend)
Soooo helpful! And so much content for free.
雪莲，您是最棒的！ you are the best, bravo !!! You are popular even in China mainland 🇨🇳 😇
真的特别特别喜欢雪莲姐姐😭我自己其实是个中文母语者，一开始看姐姐视频就是想看看英文母语者怎么学中文，然后提高自己的英文。真的特别特别有用，提高自己的vocabulary真的很重要🌹
I just want to say you are an amazing inspiration. I am learning mandarin. And every time I want to quit, I see how well you speak and I keep plugging along.
you don't have to be on site for immersion but you DO need to be motivated and disciplined
switch all user interfaces to target language
watch only media and news in target language
avoid all your anglo or source language friends which is easy in quarantine.
I agree! I have a C2 in English, but never lived in an English speaking country ^^ Had three years of classes at school at the beginning and then nothing. It might be easier with English because on the internet so much of the environment is in English. But still, proves that it's possible !
1. As a singer, you learned to listen and sing. In fact, many Vietnamese girls learned Chinese by learning singing Chinese songs first.
2. Having your husband also speak Chinese is definitely a big help. You have someone you can constantly practice with.
3. I learned English by watching TV news reports almost hour and half everyday during college years. I find that also helps in writing English too.
Chinese and English are two mostly used languages. We are lucky in that sense, communication!
I hope this might be helpful to someone who has trouble speaking to native speakers in Chinese!
So I was in China last year for two weeks and I really don't have AMAZING skills but it's enough for very basic conversation. In the first week I was in a host family and I was so incredibly nervous to say anything in Chinese to my host mother even though it would have probably made things easier. However, I still had another week left where I was kind of travelling around China with a group of people (only one of them knew Chinese but we did have a Chinese guide sometimes who could translate and stuff). So for the next week I decided to challenge myself and actually speak to native Chinese speakers, and let me tell you it was the best decision ever. I was so incredibly nervous but the Chinese people I talked to were so incredibly nice (and sometimes relieved that they didn't have to speak English). It really helped in many situations and people will rather be thankful for you trying than laugh at you for making a mistake. I made a mistake in an order at 星巴克(Starbucks) once and the barista politely corrected me, also my tones were probably all over the place but it never really seemed to bother anyone, they still kinda got what I said. So yeah in conclusion it's a very rewarding feeling to overcome your fear of speaking to natives in their native language and I definitely recommend it to everyone!
素晴らしい体験をされましたね。
台湾で過ごされた時期はシャイな性格でネイティブと余り話せて無かった事も反動の内でしたね、間の取り方等も完璧です！我很喜歡看您的視頻。 我很驚訝。 發音和聲音都很完美。 感謝您分享寶貴的經驗。
The day i learn how to speak chinese this good 😭😭😭❤
非常喜欢你的视频，你科普的太好了!这些方法也帮助我学习英语。😊
you inspire me so much! I’m currently learning chinese at school and I want to become a traductor when I’ll be done with my studies!! thank you so much for being so helpful!
Yesss!!! I’ve been looking forward to this video! Thanks for the added motivation to keep going on my learning journey! ❤️❤️
I love your channel so much, it has really helped me to persevere at times when I think I’ll never be fluent or get the hang of things! ❤️❤️
I agree, watching TV really helps, one of my friend is from South Korea and he was learning Chinese and one day he got into Chinese drama, then his Chinese starting to improve.
When I went to China, I had the same problem of barely speaking to anyone. Now I regret it so much.
I studied China for one year half and mostly spend time with foreigners instead of Chinese people, I feel regret too
Now i'm in Germany and i also feel a bit difficult to speak German to native speaker. Especial when a few German talk about same topics, which i don't understand. (some jokes also....😂)
same. 6 months in china but only hung out with other europeans. didn't make a single chinese friend rip. also the pressure of being chinese but not able to speak so i literally blanked tf out all the itme
跟广场大妈聊天，她们非常乐意
cannot stress it too much! get as much input as possible, especially when you are not living overseas, where your target language is spoken! great tips!
From Thailand ~~喜欢你所有的视频，继续做！！❤️😊
I have used HelloTalk for 4 years now with Spanish, French and now Chinese (Mandarin). It is a great language exchange app and TONS of native Chinese speakers wanting to learn English.
Tandem is also a decent language exchange app.
哈哈！你的个性和马思瑞Chris完全相反！他最喜欢假装不会说中文然后对话进行到一半的时候无缝切换到北京口音的普通话，然后拍下对方的惊讶表情🤣
对方一般都很惊喜，从来没见过有人会感觉被冒犯的。中国人碰到会讲中文的歪果仁超 nice 的。不用担心。
不过马思瑞的口音真的很 flawless、impeccable。他讲几百个字可能只有几个字会隐隐约约有5%-10%的发音偏差。偏差大于50%可能要他连续讲几千个字才可能会有一两个字有这样的偏差。这还是他人不在中国（目前被困 DC）、并且有一期试图减少北京口音（试图靠近标准普通话发音）的情况下发生的。如果他说北京口(北京口=Beijing accented speech)基本就是99.99% native speaker。
当然这个只能用在确定会讲中文的第一代中国移民身上。It won't work on an ABC. They might not even speak Mandarin themselves. 马思瑞一般都去中餐馆或者奶茶店他知道对方是中国人的地方，但是现在太出名了基本一进门被认出来。上次还有一次被远程中文对话课程的老师给反耍了🤣 对方一开始就看出来是他然后故意憋着装不知道，课程进行到一半突然模仿他视频里常说的话🤣
I love NY! I can so relate as I’m really introverted and shy to speak Chinese. Wow didn’t know that. Thanks for the tips again! Very helpful! 😃
In Germany, learning German, I spoke a lot to myself in my room as well. It was hard for me to make German friends to speak with and today I am fluent in German and learning Mandarin.
雪莲你的中文说得比我这个马来西亚华裔还要流利，你真的是很用心去学，太棒了！
我把您的视频跟孩子、朋友们分享，希望他们能够从你学习中文的经验来学习英文，谢谢您！
keep it up JJ! I came across your channel by accident and have been pretty addicted to it ever since then. Love your stuff so never stop makin' 'em!! Paul-
Your language = #goals!! Just love watching these, and seeing such natural talent!!!! Keep them up!
Your channel is my new obsession! Your personality and attitude sold me ♥️♥️
Wow! You speak so fluent and fast !!!! Lots of love from india🇮🇳
So true. I first thought I had accidentally accelerated the video but I was wrong haha.
It's a NewYorker pace.
@@ivegas1000 Yeah😂
@@AfroLinguo Yep😂😂I was like so shocked with her speed
啊？什么鬼啊？关印度啥事啊
This is very helpful! I'm from the UK and I am learning Taiwanese Mandarin, and like you said in this video I have been doing drills since the very start. And I definitely think it helps so much to know that you are pronouncing it correctly without having anyone else to tell you that you are, because it really does help you to sound so much more fluent when you actually do speak to someone in that language.
I also agree with you on your point about Pinyin, and if you're learning Bopomofo like I am, the same thing applies. You really have to have this foundation to language learning, and it's so much better if you use the Pinyin/Bopomofo to memorise vocabulary and phrases BEFORE you fully memorise any characters, or at least have this as the main structure for your pronunciation, otherwise you will have no idea how to pronounce words correctly when you just read the characters.
I also think consuming a lot of media in Mandarin helps a lot. If you like Tiktok, install the Chinese Tiktok (Douyin). If you like listening to the radio, listen to Chinese radio stations. If you like watching movies or shows, then watch Chinese movies or shows.
I'm struggling so much with pinyin! I really need to study it more but sometimes I simply write words how they sound to me so my pronunciation is better. Still, I gotta get on the pinyin. Thanks for the motivation 💕
Kayla Meets Culture don't worry we can understand no matter how weird is the pinyin😂just be brave to speak out loud first,nobody would laugh at it, we find it cute.
How about characters? Do you practise them too?
你的沟通能力很强，语法基础也很好，可以重点地修正一下你的四声，而且语速可以适当地慢一点，加油！
Currently started to learn cantonese so hearing these tips helps out alot as a beginner i need all the help i can get, thank you
Thank you so much, this video means a lot to me. I studied in Shanghai for almost 2yrs but i didn’t get to go outside, speak with chinese ppl and be surrounded by them much. Now im back to my home country and the fact that I regret not take advantage of being in China to improve my Chinese level always discourage me to study Chinese 😢
Great video JJ. Thanns for the tip about Yello Bridge. Would love to see a video with a historical review of your Chinese journey. How long its been. Bumps along the way. Lightbulb moments.. No shortcuts just your story. 我学习了三年汉语，谢谢你的视频！
It's always happy to see a foreigner who is trying to talk to you in your language.
我觉得你几乎完美，不管是外貌还是性格，尤其你的中文太棒了。最近我听一个科学家的说，ai到底是取代人还是帮助人，我希望大的科技公司帮助人，让全世界都能无障碍交流。再也没有语言的障碍。
I agree. I acquired my English speaking skill ability, complete with a Californian accent without ever going to America. HAHAHAH
COOL!
I'm sorry, but ewwwwwwww. The Californian accent is AWFUL. Even worse than the New York accent!
@SomeoneYDK 餘實恩 And British English accents are EVEN WORSE!
@SomeoneYDK 餘實恩 Actually, if you were to look at statistics, you'd find that my opinion lines up with the majority of English speakers!
@SomeoneYDK 餘實恩 I know. I'm telling you that the opinion isn't just my own. Many people feel the same way.
天啊，你的中文说得非常非常好厉害呢！ 我正在住在新加坡生活的韩国人。我从你得到了some好的tips怎么可能说中文好。谢谢你
中文说起来非常简单，English is so hard!
加油啊!

@@allenwu5862 hello
You speak different languages but same speed!!! Amazing! By the way, every native speakers have a certain level of local accent, it take years to for second language learners to realize that.
You ARE such a great person😍and have a lovely personality❤️
I love your hand gestures whenever you speak. I will copy you and do the same when I become conversational in Mandarin.
I resonated with this video a great deal. I studied Chinese at university and moved to Taiwan to be emerged in the language for two years. While it certainly was helpful hearing the language each day, I too, spent a lot of time alone and at home. To be honest, I was so nervous to even try and practice my Chinese that most days all I was really saying was, 小冰/无糖, when ordering iced tea. I think your video really is spot on, JJ. To add, on italki you can use the #languagepartner tag with a little information about the language you're learning and find something similar to a pen pal. Thanks for this wonderful video.
You are so sweet!😊 I'm gonna start learning Chinese again and your videos are very helpful. Especially since I'm also an introvert, it makes it difficult to practice with someone (also theres not many chinese speakers where I live).
我在UA-cam看了很多 how to improve your English的视频，看到这种教中文的视频感觉很亲切
Keep on making these types of video. It helps! Good luck and keep good works!
很喜欢听你讲话，你的观点对别人有帮助，谢谢你！
Thanks for another informative video. I hope one day I can learn Chinese as well as you.
Another video from my faaaavv yaaasss 😍😍😍😍
Is it me or I just want to listen to her talking all day? I wish the caption has pinyin too :(
Hi I have just started learning Mandarin and this channel is really helpful - wo de laoshi actually shared one of the videos of you and your mom singing the moon represents my heart in our group! 😃xie xie ni
雪蓮, glad I ran into your UA-cam channel yesterday. Got a lot of good learning tips from you. -- From 香港, went to Portland, Oregon for college. By the way, nice to hear you sing in Cantonese also. 加油！
ooooh this happened to me too when I was in France :( , I could've learnt so much better but my shyness really held me back in practicing french. Now, that I'm learning mandarin, I made a promise to myself to actually speak it and practice :)
In your other video you explained that you learned 20-30 new words each day. Did you pick them randomly or could you recommend a chinese-vocabulary or is there any kind of list you were following trough?? LOVE you BTW!
I am not JJ says but my idea is :
1. Learn HSK vocabulary list one level by one level.
2. I also add useful words for myself, words related to my work and my personality, my hoppies, to be able to speak about myself, my past and my objectives.
3. Once it's done, take any word you don't know while reading or watching videos.
4. not learn a dictionnary it's pointless 😂
我完全理解你的感觉，我也比较害羞。不管在外国还是在中国跟中国人说中文有点不好意思，但是同时这帮我表示我想让他人更容易沟通，而且表示我对他人文化的兴趣。
You can also always use iTalkie! It’s a great app/website for talking to native speakers
This is very helpful thank you!
Thank you for the links. I'm in Southern California where there are many Chinese speakers.
Definitely, she pointed all our concern correctly. Thank you.
Hi JJ, thanks for the video. I’m a native Chinese speaker but studying in New York right now. I love your videos and your Chinese is FANTASTIC! Just one little suggestion for you to improve it: I don’t know whether you noticed it or not, when Chinese people speak Chinese, their bodies do not move a lot and they do not have many gestures. Therefore, if you hope to speak more natively, to reduce the gestures would be a good idea. Hope this little tip could help.Love you~~
I agree with you. You can learn another language by studying yourself, using the ways like you said. The most important is keep up your interest of the language. Keep on going never stop. It will take you to a very high level.you are very articulate . It might take a whole life time to be fluent in two or three languages. Bilinguals do have more fun.
你说的很有道理很棒赞
Very informative video JJ 👍👍👍👍👍 Thank you so much 😊
雪莲您好！your Chinese is absolutely amazing, I am so proud of you. What part of China have you been to so far？
Thanks, your Chinese is pretty good! And the tips you mentioned in the video is helpful in the process of learning other language. Stay safe!
Thank you for some good tips. Over the lockdown period, I have been watching a great deal of Taiwan news by reading the subtitles and over the months, to my surprise,, I can gradually pick up a few more words from the speakers. It depends on the native speakers' degrees of regional accent.
I can pick up relatively more from you when you speak 普通話 despite you are a fast speaker. For this, I am truly grateful. I am also encouraged by your achievement in speaking so fluently. I shall follow your methods to begin learning to speak in addition to continue with listening by watching TouTube 台湾 news discussion channels.
I have some advantage in learning to speak 普通話, it is because I can write & read Chinese but my "handicap" is that I speak Cantonese dialect as I went to school in Hong Kong and English as my second language since finishing 6th form college then university in England. I have lived oversea for 42 years. I always feel embarrassed that I couldn't communicate with any native speaker from mainland China. I shall try overcoming this hurdle. I have subscribed to your channel.
很好的提示。 Yellow Bridge。 看起来蛮好的。谢谢！
I shared your video to my daughters who are so discouraged to speak Chinese with me . I hope they will find their own motivation to learn Chinese and their ancestor’s home country’s culture.
Amazing tips. Thanks.
Thanks so much for doing this video. I have started doing imitation drills recently but I have another problem which is when I speak in normal conversation, my mind suddenly becomes blank and I can’t even string simple sentences together or find the right words even though I do know the words I just can’t seem to recall them fast enough which makes it really hard to make coherent sentences.
Then learn it again and again even more times so it becomes a natural part of you
Impressed!
I see you put so much time and afford in learning Mandarin!👍
The Pleco app is also an amazing dictionary. It also gives example sentences.
我在学日语，所以你的经验对我也有帮助👍
5:23 I kept hearing "sheng liao" but thats "sheng diao" (声调) of course, right?
Slip of the tongue, or is my ear just not hearing that part right?
Absolutely right. Fully agree with your approach.
You’re amazing! Thank you
Than you for a very informative lesson.
说得太对了。如果你的发音不准确，当你听到别人正确的发音时，你会不明白对方的意思！You're absolutely right. If your pronunciation is not correct, you will not understand the other person's meaning when you hear the correct pronunciation!
I love this woman ! She's amazing.
Thank you so much, JJ, Thank you for talking about the mental struggle about learning different languages. : )
Great tips !
说得很好，我非常喜欢你的视频
language exchange (tandem) there's a site for that
and yeah R is polyphonic in Chinese your example was perfect.
R is the toughest phoneme in EVERY language idk why but it really is!
Rattling R is Spanish, R colored vowel in american english.
我是中国人， 我觉得雪莲的中文很好，语言的组织方式很地道，我敢说已经是非常好的水平。
我永远支持雪莲的频道
You are so hardworking 雪莲！
I am really enjoy your videos when you speak English. hope you can do it more. And your Chinese is really really good!
LOVE your channel! I can speak Chinese too and understand everything you're saying but I really want to improve my pronunciation, any tips?? I guess just repepating the words? You sound SO native!!! I want that too!
i can help you
说得太好了，声调也很好
Where do you recommend getting reading material that is in pinion and in hanzi and in English?
你说得很有道理，未必需要和native speakers交谈。我虽然不在英国或美国长大，我还是会说一口流利的英语。
我有时候不敢说中文，我怕他们会批评我😂 不管怎么样，我不可以放弃，继续把中文学好。喜欢看你的 channel 😁
