I think this kind of format is excellent. Also the two hosts are very professional and give clear explainations. Hope for more content like this
We're glad you appreciate it. Do watch out for more content like this on the upcoming videos.
I really like that there is no subtitle when the hosts are speaking, so i can practice my listening. But after one host speaking in mandarin, the other reply on english so if i didn't catch what she means, i can understand what that was after hearing the response in english.
非常好!
Thanks for your feedback! We appreciate your comments.
their speak make me fall in love of chinese.
This is so good! Their interaction using 2 languages so natural and easy to learn. 谢谢
谢谢你的评论!
This is my first time know there is a place in China called 呼和浩特. Is there any interesting place to visit or food to eat to recommended in 呼和浩特? Thanks
Fantastic video. Lots of vocabulary and very clear speaking. The level is perfect for me as well - not too easy and not too hard. Thanks a lot!
We're glad you appreciate it. Thanks for your support!
i think you should have also explained what 薪水 and 面试 was. i'm a heritage speaker and i had to look up what xinshui was but i understood everything else without the vocab explanation. thanks for the video!
This video is packed with useful sentences and vocabulary. The title doesn't do justice to all the good information. I was expecting only some dialogue and description of first-tier cities. The video has much more and was a nice surprise. Please keep up the great work.
Thank you for your support!
两个老师既然讲了课文非常好❤❤
谢谢
The phrase "zhuan gong" at 2:03 is often used in HongKong and Taiwan but not in the Mainland, right?
Captions like English & pinyin for the first portion of the video? A lot of good material keep up the good work 🎉🎊🎉
Thanks for the feedback! We'll consider your suggestions on the upcoming videos. Cheers!
你们的确棒极了!
I really appreciate the format of this video, more videos like this please!
Definitely, there more to come! Thanks for your support!
非常喜歡喔!謝謝你們
Thank you too!
What is the difference between 薪水 and 工资?
Is there any other word with 差 meaning business trip?
very cool! I like this topic. thanks for sharing .keep good work!
Thanks for your support!
why they use "da gao tei, da huo che", I usually hear they said “ zou gao tei, zou hou che" what is different between them? which one will be used normally?
Shall I ask if it is correct to say Hu He Hao Te is the 首都 of Nei Meng Gu? I thought 首都 is capital city of the country.
Hi circleforit, actually, 首都 just means 'capital'. Just like we can talk about the "provincial capital" of a place in English, we can also say 呼和浩特是内蒙古的首都。
Can I say 坐飞机 instead of 搭飞机?
Is 转工 the same as 跳槽?
good video. But at 1'42 tone of “一” should be the first not the second. at 2'02" 阿 is incorrect. it should be 啊
谢谢你们
谢谢!
Your videos are so helpful, thanks!
Thank you!
Thank you for the video...
Thank you too!
These are great, thank you!!
We're glad you liked it!
This old video is better than the new one's
you can watch more videos.
Fantastic one i like it !!
Thank you!
8:15 the host said" 文化“ ,could you explain what does that mean?
Culture
Really nice!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Why in the Pinyin 主意 is zhǔ yi, but the pronunciation is zhú yi?
The standard tone is zhu3 yi, but in daily dialogues people often say zhu2 yi. Technically they are both correct.
"转工" means "换工作"? this is the first time I heard that.
Is 和 and 跟 the same?
When meaning ‘A and B’, both 和 and 跟 are OK.
Is 去哪儿 the same as 去哪里?
Yes. They are the same.
“首府”和“省会”的区别在于建制为省还是为民族自治区。
“首府”在中国是专指民族自治地区的行政中心,在我国自治区和自治州的行政中心都称作首府。
但是,“省会”(或称省城),为省行政中心(省政府驻地),正式文件中,省级行政单位(直辖市和特别行政区)的行政中心并不称作“省会”,直接称为政府所在地、驻地或治所。
所以呼和浩特市是内蒙古自治区的“首府”,而不是“首都”。
首都仅能用于国家。
一个国家只有一个首都。
一个国家可有多个首府和省会。
英语中“Capital” 区分不细,州和国都可以有capital。
Awesome!
Thank you!
Great lesson, thanks! I wish you would have elaborated more on the second- and third-tier cities since I expected that from the description. Also 一线 should be Yi 1 Xian 4, not yi2 xian4.
@Jerry Woods (ChinesePod) From what I know, the pronunciation indeed changes, but the Pinyin does not. Are there different practices how Chinese is tought?
Thanks for the reply. My comment on the content was indeed more a suggestion and I appreciate that it needs to be adapted to suit the level.
It should be "为什么要面试啊" rather than "为什么要面试阿"?
If yours intonation has problem be careful with the phrase 搭飞机... Pay attention the first character is the first tone!
I will check and then I tell you... @Jerry Woods (ChinesePod)
YES . I HEAR.
We hear you too!
They really just said 打飞机 10:23 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
