1) I am sure I make lots of errors and will continue to do so. It has never been a problem. 2) I suggest that you do not correct people's language, nor point out that their hair is messy, unless they ask you to do so. 3) The word "which", as such does, not exist in Chinese as far as I can tell. 4) Your profile says "go China, go socialism, go communism". I presume this is intended tongue in cheek since there is neither communism nor socialism in China and you live in Toronto, not China.
I am less dogmatic than some of the folks at anti-moon but I believe in doing what you want. No pressure to speak. I spent at least 12 months on Russian (just part time of course) before speaking. Try LingQ.
It is not necessarily bad, just not very productive, especially while people are speaking. It can discourage some people. It is more important to encourage people to use the language more. Most mistakes are corrected by the learners without intervention, and intervention rarely leads to corrected output.
bonbon, Just be patient. Also focus on listening over and over to a limited amount of content, content you like and where you like the voice. Do not focus on individual sounds, they will come, get the rhythm. And be pateint.
Wow,awesome! I’m learning Mandarin too and love to focus most of my content in the target language on meta-learning strategies. You should put subtitles in your foreign language videos too :)
A year or so ago my chinese wasn't so good but after living in China for a year a can understand your videos perfectly. I am an Englishman but i feel i comfortable saying your Chinese is v good (especially considering you can speak so many other languages)
Amazing! Steve,how can you make it to speak so fluent Mandarin? I may think you are a Chinese if I don't look at your face. 我想您所說的學語言7原則,一定是您學好華語的親身經驗與心得, 感謝您的分享!
I am not easily discouraged I can assure you. However, I am against correcting people when they speak, especially if they did not ask for it. This wangsishuo guy annoyed me because his comments were just silly. There is no word for "which" in Chinese so I could not have overused "which" in Chinese. I am quite sure, however, that I use constructions that are not native like. I doubt that he speaks Japanese. I think he was just trying to be clever.
You're really good. You have a gift for languages. At present, I am learning English in Chiang Mai. Chiang Mai is a very old and interesting city. I hope you can come to Chiang Mai one day.There are plenty of people are learning different types languages.
We teach Mandarin, and we loved this video. If you can you should add subtitles. You got another subscriber! thanks for spreading the love for this beautiful language. :)
I found your this film accidently, and I admire that you can speak ten languages. I'm also interested in learning new languages, but I just could speak Chinese, Taiwanese and English. I need more time to watch all your films in youtube. Finally, happy Chinese New Year! (By the way, how long do you speak Chinese?)
so it is! I've just started watching your clips Steve as I'm about 5 months into my Mandarin study. Very impressive in 8 months (plus whatever input you've had in those 40 years ;) Would you recommend speaking already? As i've been following Antimoons method of just letting speaking come from alot of exposure to input.
@camille676767 J'ai surtout était dans le bois, et le suis toujours. Depuis 7 ans j'ai aussi un site web où nos members peuvent apprendre jusqu'à 11 langues, dont le mandarin. LingQ.
Your pronunciation is so accurate. Wow, I heard that non Chinese speaker always find it hard to master the four tones of Chinese language but you have done a really great job. Impressive!!
What is "non Chinese speaker "?.... there is no such thing "Chinese " in real world. Mandarin language is the hardest in the world. If America did not kicked out Japanese Empire from ex-Manchu empire in August 1945, Today everyone speaks Japanese in Japanese Empire ( modern North Korea, South Korea, China, Formosa, Vietnam, etc). And Eastern Turkestan Republic is a full independent state of Uyghur-Turk Nation. In fact in real world Since ancient times till Today there is no Chinese, no Chinese ethnic group, no Chinese race, no Chinese DNA, no Chinese spoken language, no Chinese written language, no Chinese civilization.... Mandarin language is the language of Manchu-Eastern Turks ( Tabghaq, Tanghut, Far Eastern Yellow Uyghur, Janbaz, Manchu, Kitan, Daghur, Solon, etc ). Mandarin language is not Fictional Chinese language. Cantonese language is the language of Cantonese people in the Southern regions of Yangtze River. Mandarin language and Cantonese language are Two totally separated languages. They are not dialects of fictional Chinese language. There are over 300 languages spoken by over 300 ethnic groups in China in Far Eastern corner of Asia in between Yellow River and Yangtze River. But there is no Chinese spoken language, no Chinese written language.... The department of propaganda of CCP has fabricated "Chinese civilization " by unlawfully combining the civilizations of Uyghur-Turk Nation in Central Asia, Tibetans on the roof of the world, Manchurians on the North East of Asia, Mongolians in the Southern Siberia, Koreans, Japanese, Astroasians in between Yellow River and Yangtze River, Cantonese in the southern regions of Yangtze River.... We are masters of Mandarin language and several languages of Eastern Asia. We are experts of China and Asia. Communist Soviet Russians have invented Central Communist Party ( CCP) on Japanese Empire ruled Shanghai in 1921. The US has kicked Japanese Empire from modern North Korea, South Korea, Manchuria, Southern Mongolia, lands of over 300 ethnic groups in between Yellow River and Yangtze River, Southern regions of Yangtze River, Formosa in August 1945. The Communist Soviet Russia created the Red Army and they have illegally invaded the territories of over 300 ethnic groups, and China is invented by the Communist Soviet Russia's CCP on 1st October 1949. Since then Communist Soviet Russia and Communist China together illegally invaded into Vast Eastern Turkestan in Central Asia, Tibet, Southern Mongolia, Manchuria, Yellow Uyghur Gansu, Kazakh Aksay, Koknoor, Guangxi Zhuang Region, Yunnan, Ningxia Hui region, Korean Liaoning.... After China born from CCP on 1st October 1949, there is no United language for newly invented Communist China. In October 1954, Communist China has adopted Mandarin Language, Uyghur language, Tibet language, Mongolian language and Zhuang language as the official language of Communist China. Mao Zedong is from xiang ethnic group and he has learned Mandarin language. From 1966-1977, China has tried to exterminate all over 300 languages , cultures and tried to produce " fictional Chinese civilization, Chinese language, Chinese history....". But failed. Mandarin language is not Fictional Chinese language. Mandarin language is not Han-Chinese language. Mandarin language is not Potonghua. China is the Global Disinformation Superpower, Deception Superpower, Corruption Superpower, Mass Murder Superpower, Anti-Transparency Superpower, Anti-Accountability Superpower, Anti-Civilization Superpower, Anti-Human Superpower ... Right now China's Uyghur Genocide is going on in war criminal China's army illegally invaded Eastern Turkestan in Central Asia. China's Tibetan Genocide is going on in war criminal China's army illegally invaded Tibet... China's Uyghur Organ Harvesting industry is booming. Chinese-Arab Axis has slaughtered millions of innocent, defenceless and healthy Uyghur children, Uyghur women and Uyghur men to produce UYGHUR HALAL ORGANS for millions of disabled Arabs in Middle East and North Africa. China's Uyghur Halal Organ Trading industry is booming... What is HUMAN FLESH CAPSULES? Why do Chinese eat Human Flesh Capsules in China and worldwide? How is China's Uyghur Halal Organs "Made in China "? How is China's Human Flesh Capsules "Made in China "? Why did China unlawfully totally cut off all Uyghurs from the rest of the world by total ban travel for all Uyghurs? .. v....
try to learn cantonese, this is the most efficient in chinese's language and cantonese speaker is everywhere in the world, absolutely ..it's very hard to studying, i think you can overcome it
Wow, I have been with you for a year, and I love going back to watch your videos, I am learning Chinese now. Will anyone teach me? Or give me advice? Anyone?

1.大脑是自己会学东西，经常在学习，大脑不能不学东西，它是为了学东西而搞的小机器。大脑有了刺激会发现自己的原则。大脑对一些有逻辑的有科学性的东西会比较弱。 2.input比output更重要，重视input。3.帮助大脑发现和注意到一些东西，需要多听多阅，学习单词和词组。学习文法，帮助大脑发现有什么缺点。4.要有感情emotion，有好奇心，有爱心，增加对语言的感情，对学习非常有帮助。大脑能做预料，会有动力。5.不要害怕改变，因为人们都习惯于自己的文化，要模仿另一个文化的行为的话会有抵抗，这个要尽量避免。6.课堂效率非常低，互联网有很多很丰富的内容。
来人啊，给课代表发小红花
谢谢总结
steve 老师,我太佩服您了.我现在就是在用您的方法学英语,主要就是听和读.对语法并不太在意,不懂也不纠缠.我现在听英语障碍已经不大了.我听了8个月左右,每天5,6小时的NPR广播或者别的INTENET 广播.,看英语电视剧,读英语新闻,但是我现在还不能写,和讲.但是我觉得您的方法是绝对的正确.
可以分享下您现在新的感悟，写作怎么提高的？
I studied full time for 8 months about 40 years ago and have just kind of tried to keep it up.
1) I am sure I make lots of errors and will continue to do so. It has never been a problem.
2) I suggest that you do not correct people's language, nor point out that their hair is messy, unless they ask you to do so.
3) The word "which", as such does, not exist in Chinese as far as I can tell.
4) Your profile says "go China, go socialism, go communism". I presume this is intended tongue in cheek since there is neither communism nor socialism in China and you live in Toronto, not China.
Steve老师说过，在课堂学外语效果不大。原来如此。我曾在补习班学过中文，难怪进步很慢。我好像白花了冤枉钱。如今是电脑时代。无论任何人，都可以随时随地用互联网免费学外语。可是我认为，外语学习没有捷径，还是得下功夫，锲而不舍的学才对。
@自由くたばれごみ 找个中国朋友就好了，没事交流很快的
您是日本人？教教我怎么学日文吧。我学了2-3年。五十音没问题，然后学了N5和N4。现在感觉还是没办法做简单的交流，也无法流畅阅读。是不是我得学完N3才能达到？
我覺得你只要尋找相似的語言就會學習得很快
譬如我學日文的時間就很快，只花一年就通過了檢定，但是我學英文花了三年卻依然文法很糟糕
谢谢！
謝謝😎
Kaufmann power！！！ Professor of Language！！！现在我不得不佩服德语民族了，你们什么事都可以做的很好，赞赞赞。。。。
幾年前因為看了您的片子激發起學英文的興趣,，現在正學法文，回來再看一次，對您還是很佩服。
太厉害了！！学了十种语言，而且中文听起来很流畅。I feel ashamed cause I learnt English for more than 10 years but still can't speak it very fluently.
比我爸爸妈妈的普通话还要标准，您中文太棒了！我目前在学英语听了一年，努力想突破口语😜
I am less dogmatic than some of the folks at anti-moon but I believe in doing what you want. No pressure to speak. I spent at least 12 months on Russian (just part time of course) before speaking. Try LingQ.
中文说的真不错！！！祝老爷子身体健康！哈哈
I studied Chinese for about one year, over 40 years ago.
好敬佩您的学习语言能力，让我有了学习的动力!
活到老學到老！！真是有意義的人生很讚！
太精彩了！我在自学德语，遇到困惑时总能在互联网上找到惊喜！感谢Steve的宝贵经验！！！
It is not necessarily bad, just not very productive, especially while people are speaking. It can discourage some people. It is more important to encourage people to use the language more.

bonbon,
Just be patient. Also focus on listening over and over to a limited amount of content, content you like and where you like the voice. Do not focus on individual sounds, they will come, get the rhythm. And be pateint.
你是真正的勇者
勇敢的與自己的大腦固有模式對抗。英雄
Wow,awesome! I’m learning Mandarin too and love to focus most of my content in the target language on meta-learning strategies. You should put subtitles in your foreign language videos too :)
that only works for the interrogative which?, not for which as a relative pronoun.
他所提到的那个原因。The reason which he pointed out. Etc.
A year or so ago my chinese wasn't so good but after living in China for a year a can understand your videos perfectly. I am an Englishman but i feel i comfortable saying your Chinese is v good (especially considering you can speak so many other languages)
Amazing! Steve,how can you make it to speak so fluent Mandarin? I may think you are a Chinese if I don't look at your face. 我想您所說的學語言7原則,一定是您學好華語的親身經驗與心得, 感謝您的分享!
I am not easily discouraged I can assure you. However, I am against correcting people when they speak, especially if they did not ask for it.
This wangsishuo guy annoyed me because his comments were just silly. There is no word for "which" in Chinese so I could not have overused "which" in Chinese. I am quite sure, however, that I use constructions that are not native like. I doubt that he speaks Japanese. I think he was just trying to be clever.
You're really good. You have a gift for languages. At present, I am learning English in Chiang Mai. Chiang Mai is a very old and interesting city. I hope you can come to Chiang Mai one day.There are plenty of people are learning different types languages.
I live in Hong Kong and we need to learn Mandarin along with Cantonese and I have to say, your mandarin is way better than me.

Ikr
Thank you for your sharing. very useful knowledge.
您中文说的真是棒！
非常喜欢您对学习语言的分享！让我再次燃起学习语言的热情！
When I saw "do toho" I knew it was either Czech or Slovak then I check at google translate.
好強的人!學了10種語言，中文講起來也好流利
We teach Mandarin, and we loved this video. If you can you should add subtitles. You got another subscriber! thanks for spreading the love for this beautiful language. :)
@Gorrita615 The best thing is for you to get on our Forum and say how much you would appreciate more content in traditional characters.
敬佩 老外說的一口溜中文
我想學外文卻滿是障礙呢
很欽佩你的語言能力!
我现在在学英语，看了你的视频收获很大。
I can tell that Steve really really appreciate learning and teaching languages.
老爺爺你好厲害噢
哈哈，大腦是為了學東西搞的小機器，好可愛！
哈哈
Thanks Steve! You have inspired me!
Very impressive..! Having been living in quebec city..determined several times to learn french but still comme si cimme ca..
祝老爷身体健康！
佩服！我昨天开始学法语，原因就是我认识了一个新的法国朋友。哈~
首先，很谢谢您的分享，我听了你说很多语言，觉得你太不可思议了，而且每种语言都很流利！但是您所说的方法我觉得不是很全面，可以分享下，该怎么学习吗？
您中文說的真好!!
老爷子,普通话说的很标准啊京腔,侯宝林的相声也听哈哈,来段儿 .
天啊！！！我的天啊！！！老爷爷你太强了！！！
I have a question.There are so many different accents in every language, I prefer to know how you choose the accent while you're learning.
You don't choose any accent, you develop your own one which depends on your mother tongue.
@Gorrita615 It is up to the members to add lessons and there is nothing against adding lessons in traditional characters.
chinese is very difficult to learn, but u speak so well,OMG
您的中文好棒。
謝謝您的愛💕與分享分析
AHH i just want to understand! haha
Studying hours a day i recognise a lot of the words but cant put it all together.
謝謝您，讓我學習有所改進
OMG Steve!!!! u rock!!! i'm chinese and i cudn't speak half as good as u in mandarin! :D
I found your this film accidently, and I admire that you can speak ten languages.
I'm also interested in learning new languages, but I just could speak Chinese, Taiwanese and English. I need more time to watch all your films in youtube.
Finally, happy Chinese New Year! (By the way, how long do you speak Chinese?)
amazing ,ths Steve
太帅了！！！❤厉害👍️
您好，我是第一次看到您的频道，我是多么希望早在几年前的时候就有机会听到这些话。从您的谈话中，我感觉到无论是口气还是思维方式都非常的"纯正“。所以，我有个问题想请教一下：在说A语言的时候，您会习惯用A语言的思维方式或文化方式去回答问题吗？您怎么看待各个语言交叉的部分？
我的母语是中文，在青少年的时候学了英文，然后又学了些法文。在学法文的时候，我老是觉得我脑子里面有”3个小孩“在做游戏。所以当和我那些只说英文的同学比，我需要消化的时间会比他们久一些。您觉得在学习新的语言的时候，有必要把其他的也做参考吗？
您的說法很棒 謝謝您
so it is! I've just started watching your clips Steve as I'm about 5 months into my Mandarin study. Very impressive in 8 months (plus whatever input you've had in those 40 years ;) Would you recommend speaking already? As i've been following Antimoons method of just letting speaking come from alot of exposure to input.
学累了进来看看，觉得有动力了
非常棒！我也要努力把英文水品提高到这样的水品！
Done, thanks.

您中文讲的太好了
天赋加动机，也是一种很重要的学习必具的元素。
блин ну ты мужик крут!!! я тоже хочу ещ какой-нибудь изучить теперь!
i really agree with u 。。i still struggling my IELTS, even though i have been studying UK for 7 mouths。。。
你的中文非常好。
这位叔叔讲的中文太牛啦，佩服得很啊
for how long have you been studying Chinese(Mandarin?)?
I studied it for a year almost 50 years ago. I have continued to read, listen and use the language.
你好！我是一名中国人，我在中国网上看到您的视频，我非常赞成你的理论！特地翻墙来外国网上找。我现在很想学习英语。请问我该怎么做，我现在在外国网上看儿童的视频，好多词都不懂，好苦恼。
Which language is the most “useful “? Any order to learn these languages?🤔
Wow, I have been with you for a year, and I love going back to watch your videos, I am learning Chinese now. Will anyone teach me? Or give me advice? Anyone?
What's your native language?
English, i speak farsi also
Erik Alton Wow,it's so special.I have not heard of Persian.But my native language is Chinese.I wanna know why u want to learn it.
Okay, 1 billion speakers, fun, a challenge i could get more detailed but not here. somewhere else. like email facebook or something
Erik Alton yeap,I think so.But I forget to tell u about my native language is Chinese.And,do u wanna exchange email?
每次看到您的錄像，都會覺得受益匪淺，這次也不例外！
您的中文好像帶有一點北方的腔調。您當初在學中文時，是不是特意地學北京的腔調呢？真可謂字正腔圓，我應該好好向您學習！
I do not speak Slovak but one day maybe.
Maybe change the "information" for this video from Japanese to Chinese? I love these vids, by the way :-)
你的 中文 相比 中国人 我 听懂 更多 ：D
How do you say "which" in Chinese?
哪一个
哪个
“...增加我对语言的爱情"，确实吓死我了，
不过，发音很纯正，一股京腔，这是基础，非常难能可贵。
我现在学西班牙语就先把语音语调发得滴水不漏，然后再逐步提高别的，如语法，单词量等等
佩服之极，我的语言偶像！
thanks, a new horizon in lingq
+Steve Kaufmann 40 years ago when you studied for 8 months full time, how many words did you get in your vocabulary by the time you were done?
I will trust you because your chinese is legit!
