How to greet someone with their Community titles: As you may know, the Chinese community is all about respect and family orientated. So it is common to address strangers as Uncle Andy, big brother, big sister. Calling someone Uncle Andy does not necessarily mean that we are related to the person. We're just acknowledging them, that they are elderly and we are paying them respect. So let's start with the uncle. Sure, sure. Sure, sure. The anti E, E, The Big Brother, and the big sister. Here.

Back to back to you. 6. How are you: How I ni hao. Ni hao. As some of you might be familiar with, it means hello. You go. It is the yes-no question word. So when you add those words together, ni hao, we are actually asking, are you good? Ni hao, ma. Please take note that what needs to be pronounced likely and shortly, because we want to avoid the embarrassing moment by dragging the word mar. It means hello, marr. We don't want that. So hear me saying it. Ni hao. Ma ni hao. Ni hao. Ni hao. How are you? Oh, are you good. And so we would respond, I'm fine. Well, Hun how War I hun, please take note days a tone change. So just repeat after me. Hun. How good? How? Well, how? Well, honey, I'm fine. How about you need n0 means, you know, it is the open question. Would, that means it's a rhetorical question?

So you asked your friend, this person is awake. Means this weight. It is the classifier for person. Means is way, way soon. Joe away should this person is. Now, if you know the person and you would like to introduce him or her, you would say something like e.g. this person is Mr. Wong. Two ways. One, it is the surname for one it is Mr. please be reminded. All formal introductions. You need to get the surname and the titles right? Now, let's try it. We should see in some joe away should see in some way Su Wong Sun. This is Mr. Wong. Now, let's try it with your preferred surname. Journey we should see in some way, should mention Jo we shouldn't shun. This person is Mr. Awesome. When you want to introduce someone's identity, e.g. he is my boss. Par shoot. Water. Lao Ban means he shoot means is water. My boss. Lao Shou. Lao Ban. Partial wall. The Lao Ban Partial water. Lao been He is my boss. We have learned how to introduce someone that is standing right next to you or it's near to you. But what happened if we want to introduce someone did standing afar? Yes, we would say that person is now that way person is now wage. Now, we should now wait. E.g. we want to introduce Mrs. Wong Hong Tai tai Lung, the surname Wong tie tie. Mrs. Thai, Thai, Mrs. Wong, tie, tie. Now let's add everything together. Now. We shoot. Hung tight, tight. That person is Mrs. Wong.

Now let's try it with your preferred surname. Now, we should see out here. Now, we should sell to here. Now we should saltier. That person is Miss. Awesome. We have learned how to say boss. Now let's try Lady Boss. Plow pan means bus. Yan itself means butter. But no, in this case, men are talking about boss mother. When we add those words together, plow pan neon, it means Lady Boss. Lao Ban Yan. Please take note days a tone change with the word hear me saying it. Lao fun. Young Lao Ban. Liao been young lady boss. Now, let's try the full sentence. Sue, water, loud but neon.

We're excited for you as we continue to make progress to become members of the worldwide community of Chinese speakers. In this lesson, we will learn simple ways how to ask for locations. So this is the general question of asking, where is it? Where is it? Tie? Gnarly. Psi means locate. Naturally, means where. Please take note there's an asterisk in front of the word. That means there has been a tone change. So just repeat after me. Now, lea, normally, the full sentence will be psi Natalie, Natalie. Natalie. Where is it? Where we want to find out about the location of a specific place in Chinese, we will first say the name of the location, followed by psi gnarly. E.g. if we want to ask, where is the toilet, Toilet, toe, toe, toe swap? So we would say psi gnarly, Telcel, psi gnarly. Gnarly way is the toilet. So if we want to ask, where is the hospital? E un means hospital e, e e un. So the full sentence will be e un, sign, gnarly, Yen, sign Natalie. Natalie. Where is the hospital? Let's build on our sentences. Now. We want to find out where is the nearest location. So we would add the words three. Means most. Tin means near is the auxiliary verb. In this case, it serves as an apostrophe S. It is difficult, or should I say, it is impossible to translate to languages with different words because two different languages means two different grammar systems. In this case, I just want to show you how is it like if we translate the words directly into English? So we would get the nearest or possibly as location, locate, where. Pretty straightforward, isn't it? The more you'll understand the words you will get to use to the simple Chinese grandma. And from there on, you can construct any sentences. Now, let us try it with the example of UN hospital. Let's try it. To 18. Yen. Sign gnarly. To eat in the UN. Tie gnarly to 18 the E psi. Now Holly, Where is the nearest hospital? Let's try to read toilet. Do you still remember what he started began in Chinese? Yes. The tussle, psi Gnarly, he deemed the tarsal psi naughty. To eating the tussle sign gnarly. Where is the nearest toilet? Let's try a new word. Subway station. D here. D here. John. D here means subway. John means station D Here, Jan, subway station. So how is it gonna be like? How are we going to say, where is the nearest subway station? Yes. He's gonna be tweeting the d t, sine t, t. John. Say gnarly way is the nearest subway station. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Now. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. 9. Asking for the person's name: Hi. In this lesson, let's learn about how to ask for the person's name in Mandarin Chinese. Are you ready?

Wore, tell your name. War gel. War. Zhao. Zhao Jocelyn. My name is Jocelyn. If you are in a formal or business setting and what to ask for the person's name. It is best to ask for the surname first.

What is your name or your surname? Mean? Cuisine. Nin you in honorable manner. Quite honorable. Sing surname. Nein. Nein, nein cuisine. What is your surname? E.g. if you want to say, my surname is warm, you would say, war seem long. War means, I. Sing, means surname. One. It is the surname. War scene. How long my surname is one. Now, let's try it with your surname. War scene. Your surname. Wall. Seen war scene. We're seeing my surname is warm. 10. Asking for the Price: Hi and welcome. In this lesson, we are going to learn how to ask for the price in Mandarin Chinese. Asking for the price, how much is it? Door shout, Chen. Bore means many or more. Shao means less. Chin means money. So if you want to ask how much, in terms of the quantity, you can simply say dorsal, that is to ask for the quantity. But in this case we are asking for the price. That's why we add the word chin at the end. Let's try it. Thaw. Shao Chan. Shao chin. Bosch our chin. How much is it? How much is this? Joker for salt chin. Jirga means this one object. Bosch Archean. How much? Jirga, dorsal. Tn, Jirga, dorsal, chin, Jirga, Bosch Archean. How much is this? You can point at the object and ask for the price. And so we get the response that it is six bucks, six bucks. Lu, quite chin loop means six bucks, as you know, it is the slang for dollar. It works exactly the same width, quite chin. White means peace of money. Chin means money. So when you add them together, Lille, why? Chin? It means six P's of money, which means six bucks. Now, let's try it. Lille. Why? Chen? Hi, Chin. Quiet chin, six bucks. Now you want to point at the object and tell the price, this is six bucks. Let's try it. Awesome. New clients. Blue. This six bucks. 11.

You can ask how much, how many? In this case means, many. Shao means less. So you get the question of more or less. That's why you can use this to ask how much or how many. Let's try it. For Shao. Shao. Shao. How much, how many? How many do you have? We are asking for the quantity of the object. So we would say Neil Bush. Please take note there is a tone change for the knee because it won't make sense. If you hear someone saying like knee, your dorsal sounds awkward, right? So just pronounce after me. Ne your door. Shao. Neal. Neal dorsal. How many do you have? Let's start with the sentence structure. I have war, your wall. There is a tone change. Your means half or has. Now the beauty of Chinese word is we don't have half or has rw have, or has it still the same? Would yo. Now let's try it. Wore Yoho. Yoho. Yoho. I have I have to. Now, in this case, you are answering with the quantity Warrior. Warrior. I have learned. It is two in quantity for the means used the word learn to measure words. Good means, the measurement classifier for people or objects in general. So some of you asked me, Joslyn, what is the biggest difference between Leon? And because both means to now are, is used generally when counting numbers like 123 or performing mathematical functions. However, when you want to see two of something, we use the word Leon. Awesome. Now let's try it. Wore your gut wall. You'll learn. While now. I have two off the object. If you want to change the number, just simply change the word lungs into your preferred number. So what happens if you want to say, I don't have, you would say war Mayo, War I. Male means don't have wall. May warn me. I don't have. 12. Asking What is this: Hi, and welcome.

The sentence structure of the subject with psi followed by a verb. The subject can be anything. It can be, you can be the person's name or whatever. Psi means that you are busy with something followed by the verb. In this case, I am writing war. War is the subject. I sigh, I'm busy with it. See it writing war psi. Psi. I am writing using the sentence structure that you have just learned. Now, let's try it with different words. Let's use the example of dance. Kill, kill. You want to say, I am dancing? Yes, it is going to be killed. Sigh till, well, it's, I tell I am dancing. Now. Let's try it with another example. Drink water. Who means drink? Sure. Means water. Who? You want to say? I am drinking water? Yes. You would say, well, it's I should say. Sure. What San Jose. I am drinking water. Now in future, if you want to say you are drinking e.g. maybe coffee or tea. So you just replace the word with whatever you're drinking. Coffee, beans, coffee. You would say, well it's I hook cafe. I'm drinking coffee. Or char means t. Well, it's a char. I am drinking tea. Awesome. We have talked about changing door. Now, let's try changing the subject. Let's change it from I to xi. Xi is taking a photo pie chart. She sign, the action is in progress. Pycharm taking a photo. Zai Zhao. Zhao. She is taking a photo. That being said, let's try it with an example. This case, our subject would be John and our work would be Reid. Shoe. Two means Reid. Shoe means book. Shu. Shu. You want to say John is reading? Yes. The sentence would be John Doe. John, tie to John. John is reading. Let us look at another sentence structure. We have the subject and we have the word yao. It means you want to or wants to follow by the word. In this case, I. The, I is the subject one to Shui Zhao. Sleep, which in this case is the word I want to sleep. War. Yeah, Shri Jiao Wo Yao. Sri. Yeah, sure. I want to sleep. Awesome. Now, let's try with an example. The subject is I, and the verb is sing, a song. Chunk. Chunk means syn, means some. Chung. Chung. You want to say, I want to sing a song? Yes, it would be. Well, Yao chunk, chunk, chunk. I want to sing a song. Perfect. Now let's change the subject into Susan. And the world is watch. A movie. Can see. Con, means watch or C. C means movie. Hunt. Seat. Can see. Watch a movie. You want to say Susan wants to watch a movie? Yes. The sentence would be Susan. Yeah. Can see Susan. Can see Susan. Yeah, can see Susan wants to watch a movie. Now, let us look at a negative sentence structure. We have the subject followed by the word May. That means you did not or have not. Followed by the word. In this case, he did not go to work. He is the subject. May did not or have not been go to work. May sung. Been me, shank button. He did not go to work. Who? Now? Let's try it. We have the subject he and the worship. Pay money. Fu, Chen. Fu means pay. Ten means money. Fu Chen. Fu. Chen. You want to say he did not pay the money? Oh, he didn't pay. Yes. It would be calm me. Food chain, Mi Fu Chen, harm me for ten. He did not pay the money or he didn't pay. Now, let us look at another sentence structure. This would bolt means do not. All, never. So that means this sentence is a declaration statement. We have the subject. In this case, i means no, followed by the work. With our example of I don't smoke in general, war, war. I don't see yen smoke. War for C. I don't smoke. Other than C. You could also say, Whoa, yen. Choline is a more daily language. Choice of word for smoking. Means suck or to inhale. Yen mean smoke. To inhale smoke. Simply described what is smoking. Whoa, yen, choline. Choline. So the full sentence, will bolt hole yen, wallboard, Tolkien. Tolkien, I don't smoke. Now let's try it with a crazy example. We have the subject Pieta and the word shower or bath. Seats. C C tau, shower above. You want to say, Peter doesn't shower in general? Yes. And the answer is, peta. Peta. Peta. Peta. Peta doesn't shower in general. Now there's a big difference between the word and May. When you want to say, I don't smoke in general, e.g. will see you in. That means I know smoking, War, I know CN, smoke. This is a declaration. That means you are not a smoker in general. However, when you say warm Macy, and that means I did not smoke at the time being. War, I made, that means I don't have something in possession. Cen, smoke. War may see, and that means I do smoke, but I am not doing it at the time being. 17.

And we have our work and we have our object. Let's see how it works. She wants to eat rice, Thai out Shaphan, Tao Shi Yao, one's fun. Eat rice. Now please take note, we do not have the 12 because in this case, the one-two, it is included in the word Yao. Yao to fun. She can eat rice. So basically it would be she wants to eat rice.
