I don't think it's bedroom at 10:38, I think it's bathroom, since the character by character translation is "wash hand room". Tingting just has an accent so "th" sounds like"d" sometimes
I have the same problem. I'm always trying to actually learn the words. I recognized "bathroom" from having taken Japanese in university, even though the order of the characters is different ("hands wash place" instead of "wash hands place").
These have always beem my favorite videos of yours. I still go back and watch your old teaching/teacher videos all the time. Those, the classmate role plays (study and helping a sick classmate) as well as all of your other channel are my favorites. I'd love it if you made more like them so this is very appreciated!
Even the most basic Chinese words and phrases are so poetic and beautiful. Ting Ting please do more Chinese language videos! I got such big tingles and learned so much!
Chinese being a tonal language is so interesting to me as a native English speaker because with English it is all about the context of the words as a whole but Chinese seems to be more about *how* you say the words
It's definitely odd to adjust to, but it's not too bad! Chinese is also context dependent, and English also relies on how you say words. For example, I read an anecdote forever ago about someone's friend who spoke English as a second language and would always have to repeat themselves when they ordered an americano at the coffee shop. a-MER-ican, but ameri-CA-no, but they didn't know the stress changed and said it like a-MER-icano. The pronunciation isn't technically wrong, but the way it's said threw off the cashier till the second try and they figured out what they wanted lol
sometimes in chinese they can use context as well, especially when its obvious what you're talking about. i think it'd be like "oh u said that wrong but i know what u mean"
You are the first asmrtist I watched in the 7th grade when I was having trouble sleeping before a tennis tournament. I am about to finish my first year in the Navy. Thank you.
It's crazy how much differrence a few years make when you're young! I mean 5 years for a 15 yo can be huge but 5 years to a 30 yo is not really that much :D
As someone living in China and learning Chinese, this was actually very helpful! Went out to the bus station this morning and knew what the characters for taxi meant as one drove by
This was super-fascinating! I love your extra supporting explanations, such as talking about how a character also appears in your name, or the individual meanings (hand wash room) that work together to make a term or idea or phrase we need to use. Also, it’s always nice to see them being written, so you can understand stroke order, stroke count, etc. I’d love to see another one-please consider making it? ☺️🙏
Same here! As soon as I finished watching the short I looked on her channel for a recent upload of the same nature and didn't see one, so I figured it was from a video she was working on for a new upload. So glad I was right!
Hi Tingting! Love your Chinese lessons, I've been learning Chinese since this year and I was so proud knowing all thoses characters. Thanks for the training
I may have had my first tingles while watching this video. Yours were the first ASMR videos I ever watched far too long ago, so it's only fitting. I've always thought myself immune to those, and I watch ASMR to fall asleep above all.
different languages in general are so interesting but Chinese for example with an entirely different letter system is so fascinating for someone who doesn’t understand it. Also the way the characters themselves mean something entirely different when combined with another character
I love this so much. I had lost my tingles for a very long time and thought I would never get them back. Then I watched this today and my brain was just on fire (in a good way) the entire time. Thought it deserved a comment , so I came back to let you know that I am amazed at how great you are at this Tingting. I also really enjoy hearing about Chinese culture and learning even the most basic things. Please make more videos like this in the future. Thank you so much.
Hi, I am an American my name is Blankita and I’ve been watching your channel for over 3 years when you had hit 1 million followers. I want to say thank you for all you teach us about the culture in China. Would you be willing to teach us more about China? Or the different administrative regions of China? As an American I know nothing and they here in America teach us nothing other than how China affects the US. And as an American, I’m tired of being programmed to believe false narratives. Again, thank you ting ting, for your relaxing education and for the many beautiful years you’ve given us especially with the Chinese princess videos whom are my absolute favorite. 🇨🇳 🇭🇰 ❤️💛🤍❤️
@@GervJean Well, I put it on there as a representation of things Ting Ting can maybe teach us about but if its offensive and I am unaware, I can take it off. :) The only thing I know about Hong Kong is Disneyland, as a previous cast member myself. 😬
@@kesh-o9x not to sound rude in any way but I am unaware of the Hong-Kong - China situation. Why is it wrong to support Hong-Kong being indépendent from China?
@@Kote_val Well，Hong- Kong was a essential part of China since a long time ago.Hong Kong used to be a British colony.Hong Kong was returned to China in 1997.
I saw a short from her of this exact same roleplay a few weeks ago and assumed it was for a future video, so I've been looking forward to seeing the upload! Thank you Teacher Ting Ting!
"Ni hao" being "You good?" In English is funny because in English "You good" can either be a positive question or a negative question depending on how you say it
I’ve been trying to pick up on Chinese so this is so exciting! Maybe listening while I sleep or in the background will help me get use to the pronunciation
I've been watching for a long time and I don't usually comment (often because I am watching old videos lol) but I just wanted to say that I really love this and I hope you do more! I learned a lot while being very relaxed 😊❤ also, a fun fact about linguistics: most languages share the commonality with chinese as she explained, where questions have a specific ending style in which pitch/tone goes upwards in comparison to the rest of the sentence to indicate that it is a question rather than a statement 😊
This is super relaxing but also super interesting. I like how you broke down and explained the characters, including additional context about the culture.
I've heard Chinese is a very difficult language to learn.Perhaps it would make it easier if I had someone like you to help me,as you seem to be very calm and patient.
Loved this. It was more educational, should I say, and super informative than something that could put me to sleep! The Chinese language has its own unique form of calligraphy, it's so intricately fascinating given it's ancient history spanning centuries. You have got yourself an additional subscriber! Brilliant content! Mareena from the UK Xx
Omg it’s been so long since a video like this 😢 I wish you would do more it’s one of my favorite things you have ever done! Whether it’s with the ink or like this I love it! 🥰
Unpopular opinion: I play your videos not only at night time to help me sleep, but also during work time to reduce my stress and anxiety with my over workload ❤
Languages are so interesting. I found myself wondering this entire video “how do people manage to memorize these??” But I guess the same would be said for the latin - Germanic structure of English. Humans are so weird and cool when you get down to it
In my experience learning it for fun on the side, it's not that bad. Better to start with pinyin (romanization, AKA writing out with the roman alphabet, like 谢谢 = xièxiè) and start learning hanzi (characters) after you learn some words and phrases. Then you're learning things like stroke order and common hanzi shapes while tying them to words you know, rather than cracking open a book of characters that you don't know and have to memorize the strokes, pronunciation, and meaning! I think I read a while back that Chinese and Japanese children do tend to take longer to get to where they can read and write confidently, but that it all comes out in the wash later and the populace has a very high literacy rate comparable to any other 1st world country. With the side note if you didn't know, that Chinese hanzi = Japanese kanji, although kanji complicate it by having multiple readings with different pronunciations and meanings. I actually find Chinese easier in that sense -- hanzi are always one syllable, and aaaalmost always just have one reading tied to them :)
Personally I'm trying to learn Japanese, and the kanji is taken from the chinese alphabet The two characters in "hao" are onna (woman) and ko (kid) when read in japanese!
Does English writing look this complicated to native Chinese speakers? It must, right? What a strange world we live in. I could NEVER learn another language, my brain just doesn’t work that way 😂
It would seem much easier to learn say Italian, Spanish, French or German since they all use basically the same Roman alphabet, give or take a few language-specific letters. Some languages, like Greek or Russian, use their own alphabets, meaning you have to learn their alphabets before learning to write in the language. Asian languages (as well as some island nations and parts of the middle-east and Africa) use character-based writing like Chinese. Character based writing is founded on completely different principles than an alphabet-based writing system, so it will seem very hard for you to wrap your head around at first. Standard Chinese has something like 500-1,000 characters, compared to the 26-30 or so possible letters in the Roman alphabet.
Learning to read idiographic languages involves a complete different part of your brain than learning to read alphabetical languages. It’s like when you see a no smoking sign -> 🚭 you know it means “no smoking” even though it doesn’t have a single letter in the symbol, you know what it means. In fact you know that because you know this symbol 🚫 means not allowed and this symbol 🚬 means smoking. So 🚭 has a linguistic translation even with no words involved. These Chinese characters work the same. You just have to learn what the ideograms are communicating. I will say we tend to teach languages backwards in schools. “Read it, write it, speak it” When we learn languages naturally “speak it, write it, read it”
I could never learn finnish if I were born in another country. The grammar is so complex I had hard time learning it in upper classes of comprehensive school. Later when I studied in high school (?) the grammar became more obsolete and the actual content was preferred.
it’s actually not so complicated for native Chinese speakers. The difficult part of English language are grammar and practical application in communication. The English letter looks similar to Chinese Pinyin, which helps you to read the Chinese Characters.
My Japanese teacher taught us the origin of Japanese and now every time I see hirigana, katakana, and chinese writing I cant stop thinking about how crazy cool it is that it came to be the way it did. Truly a meaningful and beautiful language. (Both)
The videos where I get to learn about China and chinese culture and language are my favorites! Could I suggest a video about family members? I know there are specific words for aunts and uncles depending on whether they are from the mom or the dad's side, or if they are younger or older, and I find that very interesting (if a bit confusing 😅)
Great video! Maybe for the next class you can teach us some words related to how to spend free time or about hobbies for example watching tv, dancing, singing, going for a walk, running, playing football, playing games etc something like that!
Wonderful video. Thank you for trying to teach, but I have no idea how anyone who hasn't learned this from childhood is supposed to learn it :D how many characters are there a million? and every little sound changes everything... unbelievable that there are westerners who actually speak and write chinese. Very calming though. ;)
Most people think auf wiedersehen in German means goodbye but wieder means again and sehen means see. So it basically means "until we see each other again"

Im chinese and i watch this for relaxation. Tingting really gives me the tingles and relaxation in her roleplays!
beautiful, love this video thanks for all your amazing work Tingting❤️❤️
As a person in advance chinese classes, i love going back to the basics, especially if tingting will whisper it!
I love this and can’t wait for the next Chinese class
I watched the first video about friend teaching chinese so many times during years, it helps me to concentrate a lot!!!
I was just hoping for one of these!!
watching you explain in details words with so much attention and care is so interesting and relaxing, it makes me want to learn chinese in depth!💕
my favorite chinese teacher is back!!🥰
Ting Ting’s Teaching series is easily
My favorite stuff she has made. Excellent ASMR.
Does English writing look this complicated to native Chinese speakers? It must, right? What a strange world we live in. I could NEVER learn another language, my brain just doesn’t work that way 😂
It would seem much easier to learn say Italian, Spanish, French or German since they all use basically the same Roman alphabet, give or take a few language-specific letters. Some languages, like Greek or Russian, use their own alphabets, meaning you have to learn their alphabets before learning to write in the language. Asian languages (as well as some island nations and parts of the middle-east and Africa) use character-based writing like Chinese. Character based writing is founded on completely different principles than an alphabet-based writing system, so it will seem very hard for you to wrap your head around at first.
Standard Chinese has something like 500-1,000 characters, compared to the 26-30 or so possible letters in the Roman alphabet.
never say never
Learning to read idiographic languages involves a complete different part of your brain than learning to read alphabetical languages.
It’s like when you see a no smoking sign -> 🚭 you know it means “no smoking” even though it doesn’t have a single letter in the symbol, you know what it means. In fact you know that because you know this symbol 🚫 means not allowed and this symbol 🚬 means smoking. So 🚭 has a linguistic translation even with no words involved.
These Chinese characters work the same. You just have to learn what the ideograms are communicating.
I will say we tend to teach languages backwards in schools. “Read it, write it, speak it”
When we learn languages naturally “speak it, write it, read it”
I could never learn finnish if I were born in another country. The grammar is so complex I had hard time learning it in upper classes of comprehensive school. Later when I studied in high school (?) the grammar became more obsolete and the actual content was preferred.
it’s actually not so complicated for native Chinese speakers. The difficult part of English language are grammar and practical application in communication. The English letter looks similar to Chinese Pinyin, which helps you to read the Chinese Characters.
My Japanese teacher taught us the origin of Japanese and now every time I see hirigana, katakana, and chinese writing I cant stop thinking about how crazy cool it is that it came to be the way it did. Truly a meaningful and beautiful language. (Both)
How is ting ting a better chinese teacher than duolingo?
tingting is Chinese❤
These videos on Chinese language and culture are my favorites.
Finally, another Chinese video! 听起来很棒! 我很喜欢小黑板的声音，谢谢你❤️❤️
❤
I like learning Chinese please do more of teaching Chinese (alphabet and common phrases)
I love to learn Chinese sooo much!❤
Relaxation 10/10 Strongly recommend ⭐
Chinese lesson 1/10 I only got to learn one word before falling asleep 😮💨
The most beautiful woman in China teaches us Chinese. Amazing privilege. Always the best ASMR. ❤💍💐🇨🇳
Tingting I just LOOVE this idea to make such an asmr ❤❤❤ perfect in every detail. Thanks for being here and your work❤
I'm too interested to sleep.. this is so good, thank you 💕
Ting-Ting is so good she can make drawing on a chalkboard sound tingly and satisfying!! ❤❤
I loove your chinese culture asmr! ❤️
this is awesome! The ASMR is amazing, but chinese is such a fascinating language, the written language is incredible! subscribed!!
i was hoping you would do one of these again 🫶 love it
The videos where I get to learn about China and chinese culture and language are my favorites!
Could I suggest a video about family members? I know there are specific words for aunts and uncles depending on whether they are from the mom or the dad's side, or if they are younger or older, and I find that very interesting (if a bit confusing 😅)
你想了解什么我可以帮你
I get too excited about linguistics bro there is no way I’m sleeping with this on /lh
Great video! Maybe for the next class you can teach us some words related to how to spend free time or about hobbies for example watching tv, dancing, singing, going for a walk, running, playing football, playing games etc something like that!
i thought this would be a good thing to fall asleep to but i'm too much of a language nerd, i'm paying way too much attention rn
Wonderful video. Thank you for trying to teach, but I have no idea how anyone who hasn't learned this from childhood is supposed to learn it :D how many characters are there a million? and every little sound changes everything... unbelievable that there are westerners who actually speak and write chinese. Very calming though. ;)
Sometimes certain ASMR videos won’t help me sleep because they’re just too interesting to relax. 😅 Unfortunately this is one of them, haha.
I could do 12 hrs of these videos no problem. Thanks for the wonderful content tingting
谢谢。

Most people think auf wiedersehen in German means goodbye but wieder means again and sehen means see. So it basically means "until we see each other again"
Time to learn a new language, YES!!!
Every frame is this video is full of cozyness and sharm.
