1:01. Slow down the video to .5x speed. Listen to how she says bu hao yi si. Practice this. This kind of 连读 (connected speech) is what helps people engage with you in Chinese much more naturally. One does have to be precise in their mimicry tho. Keep in mind this was the FORMAL answer and when spoken naturally there is still this much connecting/slurring going on. Very insightful.
This is amazing! I would love for this to be a series. It’s so applicable, and helps me see the very real differences in context and setting, all while expanding my vocabulary and cultural awareness. Keep it up!
I really liked this video, you're the best teacher. I wish you could make more video about polite, casual and rude Chinese. U know, for the ones who want to speak the language in a more formal way for business.
i spent sometimes to find the perfect word to describe your greatness, i couldn't find any word that describes your greatness 😍 you are the goddess of teaching ❤ keep up the good work! 👍👍
I am from eastern USA and been learning Chinese through youtube and workbooks as well as Chinesepod for about 4 months. Your youtube channel has been super helpful. Tài gǎnxièle! It is crazy to me how Chinese does not have tenses like in English. So cool!
Through ur videos I've learnt a lot!! long live shuoshuo Chinese!!❤🎉 . Pls never relent 🙏, I will love to join ur online class pls give me ur link ma'am 🙏.
I have been a listener for a while and I must really thank you for your videos, you really helped me learn A LOT! Despite (barely) passing HSK 5, I have close to 0 confidence in speaking since I never interacted with a native. 说说老师帮了我很多，万分感谢老师！
Just started learning Chinese, I've always spoken it formally! I want to learn how to speak it casually, but there aren't many resources online. Do you have any tips? Thx!
Go to ShuoShuo Chinese => Videos and start at the beginning. She sprinkles a lot of her lessons with idioms, euphemisms, and slang... also warning when NOT to use them.🙃😉
I guess one important distinction is that you should use more particles at the end of your sentences in casual sentences, like 啊 (a) 呀 (ya) 喔 (o) 嘛 (ma) 耶 (ye), 等等. These help to give a more intimate, informal feeling to them. Also, you can use more onomatopoeia, like 哈？ (huh?) 哼！(hmm!) 欸？(eh?) 喔。(oh.) 嗯。(mm; a grunt of agreement, like Japanese うん), rather than full words. And instead of formal greetings, you can use informal ones like 嗨 (hi!) 嘿 (hey!) 拜拜 (bye-bye!), etc.
Lol that part is so true. I always find it intrusive and uncomfortable when Chinese friends or even strangers try introducing me to their daughter or something. I met a client one time in NYC, I work with English and Chinese speakers, and after the first meeting she tries to hook me up with her daughter.
As a woman living in China for a while I just started saying, "我有男朋友。" Even now I still think it to be the most simple and effective response to others' matchmaking.
And people try saying English is hard. In English, "where is the bathroom?" Is formal and casual. More formal may be to add an "excuse me..." Rude would be throwing the f bomb inside I guess lol, English is very simple.
什么鬼？I've never heard this before. I love Chinese. Sometimes it's super logical and sometimes it's totally random. I recently learnt the word 胡说. I knew 胡 and I knew 说 but I didn't know 胡说. Do men with beards talk nonsense? 🤣
@Anyhony Unsworth: 胡 in ancient China referred to nomadic tribes from Central Asia, foreigners who spoke a “rubbish” dialect, and so considered “nonsensical”. That was how 胡说 meant incomprehensible language or nonsense, and 胡说八道 = utter nonsense! There’s nothing random in this bit of history, but that’s another story!
hahah! Police/casual if not Polite enough just directly sent to the police XD
Omg did I write police!
@@ShuoshuoChinese please don't worry, I'm just joking, it's perfectly understandable ✨

Great lesson. Thank you.
I love your videos 😄
hahaha the little sketches make the class even more entertaining to watch and ultimately easier to learn! Thank you for this video! ♥
It’s a lot of phrases to remember! I think I’ll have to learn these by experience instead of study.
This is like honestly my favorite Chinese language learning channel ❤️
The dead dog example was so brutal 😂 Very Balkan sense of humour 👌😉
Chinese food is the best food, LOL! I don't think I'll use that, but everything else is super useful! Thank you!
nice one 老师！
wonderful!! thank you so much, it was great!! you're a fantastic teacher!
It was really really interesting thank you laoshiiiiiiii♥️♥️♥️
Yup! Added this whole lesson to Anki! :D
Sooooo goooooood! Thank u so much!

4:46 got me laughing. The tiny disappointed frown.
谢谢老师！
So good!
We say "what's wrong NOW?" or "Now what's wrong" rather than "again" in most cases.
谢谢！！
8:48 - A reference to 黑人問號 which is the chinese name given to the Nick Young meme。This is a 10/10 easter egg
Good video as always
Very important I think.
can you use 又怎么了 jokingly with friends?
1:20 - "Police"? 😄 I don't want to ask a cop where the toilet is.
She meant polite but I was like what? 😂

Tall to people. Comsume casual content
Shenme gui made me laugh so much for some reason

Great
i actually understand chinese quite well but i cant seem to speak it very good do you have any tips to help
fun video. If a woman uses the pet-name for her man "honey" (laogong), what does a man call his woman typically?
老公 means hubby, the woman version is 老婆laopo
Thanks for the video I'm currently studying Chinese and I'm wanting to impress my crush😁👍
The radio host in Chinese program always says "qing shuo" when people call in to the program to ask a question.(加拿大中文电台)
And people try saying English is hard. In English, "where is the bathroom?" Is formal and casual. More formal may be to add an "excuse me..." Rude would be throwing the f bomb inside I guess lol, English is very simple.
请问：Is 一遍 more polite than 一次？谢谢你！
它们差不多哦
@@ShuoshuoChinese 谢谢！
一遍 emphasis from the beginning to the end, eg: 这本书很有意思，我想再看一遍。
一次 eg : 我去过一次中国。
@@joleneliu9017 Ah, very helpful. 谢谢！
You can be movie star with your acting. Find a talent agent in Bangkok, One+One agency.
又怎么了 is exactly like saying, "now what?" in English instead of saying anything else like what, what is it, what's up.
Can you be polite sarcastically in chinese? Like can you say “洗耳恭听” to your friend to make them laugh 😂
Haha yeah you can do that!
你的视频很不一样。🙏🏽🙏🏽
Can you speak Thai, How long have you been in Bangkok?
In Brazil i use only rude and Chinese people treat me very well, talk polite is much words hahahaha rude is hard much words my brain go explode
Heyyy, so good?
❤
Apparently male Shuo just shaved :P
I thought it was a lesbian couple since March is Women's Month.
哈哈(∩_∩)
老师，你是广东人吗，最近我看了一部很棒的3D电影《雄狮少年》那个女主角阿珍很像你
@ShuoshuoChinese说说中文 - 10:47 What a monster you are! ---- or ---- What kind of monster are you?

@@sib5th That's really interesting, thanks! 😊
还不错，但是不太合我的品味 😂
老师我要问你一下，你是不是平时去游泳吧
After 20 years in China no one ever introduced me to a girl - Must be an exaggeration!
How free is China?
说，你的视频超赞！讲得很清楚而且很有趣，向你学习哈！
哇！你好哇
