I have been in China for 9 months now and I really love the place but I'm struggling with the language. In particular I have been struggling to find useful common phrases people use on a daily basis. I find it quite easy now to express myself and how to speak about daily life but my listening is much weaker than my speaking. Thank you so much for your videos, you've earned a sub for sure :D
the way you offer similar expressions for the same meaning, explain nuances, and supply example conversations and drama clips, is all super helpful. i'm one of those chinese-americans who can understand more or less, but can't speak well, so i'm trying to expand my vocabulary and phrasing with your videos. i'm really glad i found your channel, keep up the good work!
I always enjoy the clips from TV shows with examples of phrases, but this is the first time I've actually watched one of them! Rest Your Head on My Shoulder was the first show I watched after I started learning Chinese. It's still one of my favorite mainland China shows.
bonus: use "卧槽" for literally everything to really sound like a native speaker on the internet (you can use anything that sounds similar in PinYin form, for example "我靠“ and "我艹“ also work fine
I was hoping there would be a channel teaching Chinese with example clips from dramas and I found it! Thank you! It's so much easier to learn sentences when you hear them in more natural setting than text book audio.
All of your videos have been soooo useful, but I think that this one may even be the most useful one yet! These phrases are incredibly important in real conversation. I love how your examples simply illustrate the contexts that these phrases are used in! 非常感謝!
I really wish your channel grow fast. Thank you for your videos! I couldn't find any TH-cam channel like yours, with such good useful tips for people who are beginners. It would be great if you do something like podcast talking about anything that interesting to you but using not complicated language for beginners. But of course it's nothing but my thoughts. Thanks again!
我经常听到我的汉语老师说,”没错。“ Otherwise, I've never heard of any of the other phrases you mentioned in the video. That aside, very informative video as always. 谢谢你!
I’m so glad that I found your channel, Grace. I’ve been binging over your videos because they’re very useful and easy to understand for me. I can watch it while I’m chilling without feeling I’m in the middle of studying. Hope to see more videos! 💗
Put your head on my shoulder! I loved that show! When I get more comfortable with mandarin, I have a list of shows to rewatch and that's one of the first. Love it
Dear Grace, thank you so much for your channel, I've started learning Chinese about a month ago and your videos made the process easier, fun and much more effective! You're a great teacher, happy af that I found a girl who teaches real life language, not textbook one! In the lesson about food there was so much animal stuff! But.. How do you say "I'm a vegan, I only eat plant food?" Please, make a lesson for people like me 🙏 Just saying "我不吃肉和鱼, 我不喝牛奶" isn't satisfying :) Btw, are there many vegetarians and vegans in China? 谢谢你,Grace 老师 🥰
Thank you, these are amazing! I love that you both included yourself pronouncing the words in different speed levels as well as included a clip of someone saying the phrase in a movie! It makes it easier to know how it sounds in normal speech that way. 谢谢你!
This was really great, thanks! I'm always looking for phrases and just stuff people say in daily conversation since I want to be conversationally competent for when I go to China at some point in the future!
Some of them were so easy and fun to learn/say, I LOVE THIS! You think it will be ok if I say some of these to my fellow Asian classmates? Im worried they will laugh at me or think im being offensive 😅 but i just love asian cultures
I love these videos, thanks so much for making them!! I’d love to learn more about native/polite phrases to say when interacting with the general public eg. When leaving a cafe, “Have a great day!” :D
Thanks for posting - nice idea to use the video clips to illustrate the different phrases - I see that "Put your head on my shoulder" is available to watch on Netflix so I will take a look.
Hi Grace, thank you for this informative video! It's good to know these phrases and with the help of your video learning them is quite easy! Have a good time in the cold northern US. The region where you are can be very cold - especially for people from relatively warm Taiwan (tough little country!).👍
just realised i've watched some of your other videos and they were very helpful, subscribed! the amount of pyhoms clips in the video,,, they're kinda making me want to rewatch it cause when i first watched i barely knew any chinese
As a mainlander, I always feel all my hair standing on end when I hear people saying Dong Xi in a way as if it meant East-West but actually it means thing. Same feeling for Guan Xi, which means relation, in the way that sounds like West of the fortress, which is actually a place name
I don't even speak chinese but I somehow understood most before you told the english meaning. I am not even currently learning chinese right now but came across the video and wanted to watch. Maybe I understood because my parents sometimes watch chinese dramas way too loud? 😐
I used to do mandarin lessons when I was around eight or nine but it interfered with my Japanese which was really important since my family never taught me Japanese growing up so I’m still catching up now. I wish I never quit because it’s so hard!! Even now I’m N2 Japanese and I still struggle remembering kanji, there’s no way I could remember accents and new pronunciations at this age (〃ω〃)www
Dear Grace I love your video so much💕 I hope one day u could teach us some common conversation in pet shop ( example in that shop has puppy cat hamster and rabbit ) .

Thank you for the China's Taiwan lesson
Do you offer a printout of the phrases and meanings including pinyin? That would be very useful. Excellent lesson!
Love these useful phrase videos - they really help bridge the gap between sounding like I learned from a book to sounding far more natural. Thank you!
我也這樣覺得喔!
I won’t to be one of them

hey are you still in china or back home, how is everything going?
@@DS-uo1zy Yup, life is great!

These are indeed very colloquial and useful. Living in Taiwan for 46 years I can assure you these are essential.
I can confirm! These are all very commonly used in China! I love the real-life examples you use!
Hey you should make videos together!

Yesss I agree. After watching Chinese films I realized I’ve been pronouncing Chinese words very unnaturally 🥲 So it helps to fix your pronouncation
All of your videos have been soooo useful, but I think that this one may even be the most useful one yet! These phrases are incredibly important in real conversation. I love how your examples simply illustrate the contexts that these phrases are used in! 非常感謝!
15 个非常有用的将帮助我更像当地人。我会尽量和我的中国朋友一起使用。谢谢, 老师。😊

Thank you for putting in the traditional characters! This channel is one of the few that add traditional characters to the lessons. 謝謝你🙏🏻

the way you used a clip from one of my favourite Chinese dramas
Amazing video! thank you so much!

谢谢你,Grace 老师 🥰
very helpful thank you
你的每一个视频都有无数宝贵的教训,非常感谢你的努力
"教训" is used in negative expression
It's better to use "资讯(information)"
or "教材(teaching material)"
Ps. I'm a native Chinese speaker :)
thank you so much for your videos. clear, simple and really interesting. Cheers from Italy
I was laughing like a fool while learning with put YOUR head on my shoulder... Thank you for making our learning fun 💜💜
This was really helpful but there are a few phrases I need to practice as well as finish the getting started with Chinese course.
Hmm, I think I hear 幹嘛, 沒錯 or 對啊 the most. These are all so useful…thanks Grace!! I’m busier lately but I’ll still try to memorize all these👍
Thank you for these helpful videos
Thank you, these are amazing!

Today’s lesson is also very meaningful!
今日のレッスンもとても勉強になります!
Glad you like it ✨
Thank youuuuuuuuu
This is exactly what I was looking for ❤
Some of them were so easy and fun to learn/say, I LOVE THIS!
You think it will be ok if I say some of these to my fellow Asian classmates? Im worried they will laugh at me or think im being offensive 😅 but i just love asian cultures
Grace老师出品必须第一时间来学习,老师温油又幽默❤
謝謝Ting老師!😉
Great video. Would love it if it were broken into two videos, one with the easiest shortest ones and one with the harder ones.
I love these videos, thanks so much for making them!! I’d love to learn more about native/polite phrases to say when interacting with the general public eg. When leaving a cafe, “Have a great day!” :D
Didn't expect to see so much of 林 一, but I'm not complaining. I think using examples from dramas is a great way to learn Mandarin.
We use a lot 好了 in my Chinese clases to tell the teacher we finished something they asked us to do lol. Good video.
我很欣赏你使用的方法。我希望你继续努力
I like that you include the traditional characters :)
thanks! I was looking for more natural phrases in the daily lifea and i found this really useful :)
All of them very useful phrases
Mafan nile!
This is the most useful Mandarin language video I've seen so far 👏 thank you
I like the movie clips and small conversation examples!
hello Mrs Grace I'm your student from Cambodian🇰🇭 and I suggest you make a video of measure words like Kg, g, Km, mm,.. thanks🙏
Thankyou Grace! I always like the way you explain things, it's easier to get and not boring
你教得很棒!
特別是正體字上配上 注音符號;不知你之前的課程是否有教過注音和拼音?! 這絕對有助於老外:
一次就可以學到中文的標準發音。
I have been talking with people in Beijing and Shanghai so I must know this!
TYSM for continuing to teach Grace!
Finally getting to learn more Chinese
Thanks for posting - nice idea to use the video clips to illustrate the different phrases - I see that "Put your head on my shoulder" is available to watch on Netflix so I will take a look.
love your video hugs from Chile south america
Thank you, enjoy your method of teaching, I can clearly discern your annunciation of word
Hi Grace! Another great video as usual. Thank you so much, and I love your sense of humor. Hahaha! Keep'em comin please.
Congratulations, Grace. I did check different sites, but I like your site because you are very to the point.
Hi Grace, thank you for this informative video! It's good to know these phrases and with the help of your video learning them is quite easy!
Have a good time in the cold northern US. The region where you are can be very cold - especially for people from relatively warm Taiwan (tough little country!).👍
Thanks, Grace! As usual, I could get to learn a lot from your video! ;)
EXCELLENT, as always! Thanks!
just realised i've watched some of your other videos and they were very helpful, subscribed!
the amount of pyhoms clips in the video,,, they're kinda making me want to rewatch it cause when i first watched i barely knew any chinese

Xie xie ni grace for this these informative videos please upload more lessons like that love from Pakistan 💕

I love your channel and all of your videos ! they are all useful and can use in a real life unlike in textbooks hahah. Thank you :)
Very useful, thanks Grace!
just found this channel. great video, subbed. hope to see more!
Great format, good speed, terrific content 👍
Yeah that's great but if it was background sound then it'd be the best, god job
您是最好的语文老师,谢谢您
I don't even speak chinese but I somehow understood most before you told the english meaning. I am not even currently learning chinese right now but came across the video and wanted to watch. Maybe I understood because my parents sometimes watch chinese dramas way too loud? 😐
Great video!
another 1st class video. very enjoyable, even for a native cantonese speaker!
Hi teacher, thank you so much for your lesson, its really help me to improved my chinese. And the other side, teacher are so cute, 全世界最爱你的人就是我 😁😁
I used to do mandarin lessons when I was around eight or nine but it interfered with my Japanese which was really important since my family never taught me Japanese growing up so I’m still catching up now. I wish I never quit because it’s so hard!! Even now I’m N2 Japanese and I still struggle remembering kanji, there’s no way I could remember accents and new pronunciations at this age
(〃ω〃)www
we missed you!!! women xiang ni
Another great video Grace! 😊
Thanks 💕
Dear Grace I love your video so much💕
