🔥Chinese Pinyin Spelling Rules + Special Sounds + How to Apply Tone Mark | Pinyin Tutorial (Day #5)

Welcome to Day5 of "7 days to master Chinese pinyin". In this video, I present general & special spelling rules, special sounds, and how to apply tone mark in Chinese pinyin. Being aware of Pinyin spelling rules are substantially important so that you can be able to properly pronounce Chinese expressions. In the previous videos, I provided a full tutorial for tones, initials, and finals in Chinese pinyin. If you have not checked them out, please do so. This lesson series is such a good start if you just started learning Chinese.

These pinyin videos are incredible. I can't understand why this site's total subscribers isn't 465K instead of 4.65K.

[@houd2017]

This video is awsome exactly what I needed thank you very much!!!

[@DylanDoThings]

First, thanks' for this series! Second, I'm a bit confused on the pronunciation parts for Zhi, Chi, Shi, and Ri mentioned @ 6:22 in this video and Zh, Ch, Sh, and R in Day 3(The Initials Video) mentioned @ 3:23. In these two videos, i cant find a difference between the pronunciations you're using are they pronounced the same? I feel like perhaps i have missed something, can you please clarify this for me?
Thank you!

@KEYs to Chinese you made a mistake at 6:20, you pronounce ci but you write si instead

[@tuannam2509]

Great video! Thank you! The low number views is really surprising to me!

[@hectorpg1181]

That’s great it’s just what I am was looking for! Please make more videos explaining the special sounds with examples of Phrases and words

[@keystochinese0921]

Will do! Thank you!

[@alexchae618]

Thanks for the lecture! I think there is a tiny miss on the video. 6:21~6:22 zi duplicates! I think it should be zi->ci->si instead of zi->si->si

[@keystochinese0921]

Thank you for the correction! Great job 😊

In chinese how to decide which tone should be placed on the vowels ?

[@keystochinese0921]

Hi Diya, this is a great question!
Essentially, the tone mark is usually placed above the main vowel which a, o, e (there are six vowels in total, a, o, e, i, u, ü, and "i, u, and ü" are seen as secondary vowels). Where there are "a, o, or, e", the tone mark goes on top of them. When you see "ao", then the tone mark goes above "a" such as bāo.
In short, when there are “a” or “e”, they always get the tone mark. If you see “ou” or “uo,” then “o” gets the mark.
In addition, in "iu", "u" gets the tone mark. In "ui", "i" gets the tone mark. In "un", "u" gets the tone mark.
This can be confusing at first. The more you read pinyin syllables, the better they come naturally to you.To practice, you can try to use pinyin edit website (www.chinese-tools.com/tools/pinyin-editor.html). I use this website to type pinyin syllables and I believe it can help you get familiar with pinyin.
Let me know if you have further questions. I am more than happy to help :)

@@keystochinese0921 Thank you so much for replying Teacher
In chinese how to decide whether 1st tone/2nd tone/3rd tone/4th tone will be placed on vowel or would it be a neutral tone ?

[@bangliu1558]

@@diyagoyal7688 The tone comes from the language itself, not decided by the user of it; thus, the user/learner more or les has to memorize it, that is why many people get turned off. But, don't be discouraged, it is possible.

Great video! Does rule 1 apply to 云 ?

[@MW-pv5gj]

I spoke too soon! Rule #3!

[@keystochinese0921]

Actually Rule 3 applied to 云 because 云 has the omitted two dots.
