Me After 1 Year of Learning Chinese

Bro... I have been learning English for 9 years and I still can't talk 😑🔫

I've started watching and listening everything in Chinese and now I'm feeling depressed 😂😂
Don't understand a thing with my hsk2
But i don't want to watch peppa pig. No way. Never.

It helps me when I write characters, and understand radicals, depends on preference.

you know what, the hardest part learning Mandarin is if you r traveling to China for improving your Mandarin skill, Chinese people rather practice their English with you😅

Hahaha ups!!! I focus all my time on writing 😂😂😂

Hey Andre! It's so impressive and inspiring seeing you learning Chinese as a foreigner! Chinese is one of my native languages, and your Chinese is great, keep it up!

I feel you with HSK 5 hhhhh

I also plan to go China by start learning Chinese.
Don't know when I can start the journey.😢

您好、我 现在 中国 学 汉语 四 个月、我 怎么 讲 英语、 我 的 英 语 也 很好

It's always ironic when English speakers (even native ones!) mispronounce the word "pronunciation" :D

Don't worry about learning characters unless you need them for work or business. Children become fluent before they learn any characters in school. The key to acquisition is listening. We all aquire our first language by listening to our surroundings, not by reading.

Hey, thank you for shooting this video. I hope to reach intermediate level in a year

Thanks for the episode. You are absolutely right

Well my first language is Arabic and I want to learn Chinese 😢

NO, it isn't worth it. WTF???!!! I speak japanese and even then it's questionable how much there is to read in japanese that is worth reading. There isn't ANYTHING to read in chinese that would make it worth learning to read chinese. Reside in a city there now, by the way

Both Chinese learners and English learners watch Peppa Pig :D

If you can learn Chinese to fluency in 2400 hours, you are really gifted and I would be impressed.even a Chinese child needs more time to reach say C1 level. I believe that it requires at least 10,000 hours. Ofcourse that would be including the time that you are immersed in the language, but nevertheless...

我很负责得告诉人，答案是: No, not worth it.

You are an inspiration man

Alphabet is so efficient and easy 😅😎👍

Haha, me as a muti-lingualist think this is quite fun

大兄弟，加油鸭。

I did not find that the language did not make sense. It is different and that does not mean it does not make sense. English has so many quirks, one has a hard time complaining.

The minute you discount writing, you get yourself discounted! We Chinese expect white people to learn humbly to speak and understand Mandarin, nothing less. Your clip sucks.

看到你说关于阅读合适的书籍有助于帮助理解中文，我的建议是，教科书那一类的工具辅导书真没啥意思，特别是作文类的书籍。不知道你有没有体会过作文感觉都大差不差（这是一个成语，意思是都很类似），我更推荐你看少年类的小说或漫画，比如《小屁孩日记》（the dairy of a whimpy kids in Chinese), 郑渊洁童话故事（《皮皮鲁》&《鲁西西》），或是一些你母语的作品的翻译作，但你需要知道，外国作品翻译成中文会形成一种独特的“翻译腔”，因为英语的形容方式在中文很不常见，不过会和你们的语法更贴合所以会更舒适一些吧。最后请注意一点，我作为一个中文母语者非常非常不推荐你看电视剧来学习中文，一些台词和剧情太脱离现实了，比较好的电视剧有：《甄嬛传》（这是一部关于中国古代某个朝代的宫廷的故事），《隐秘的角落》（背景是现代），《狂飙》（中文现代背景下的刑侦类电视剧）

Sooner or later Mandarin learner will find out that there are millions of different dialects in Chinese too complicated to understand. Even native Chinese speakers find themselves having a hard time understanding dialects. 😂

nice video，we are learning English for work

Thanks.

my language is Urdu how can i learn japaniese

bro you buy the a lot of books but i dont have money to buy it

i started to detest Chinese

虽然中文很难学习，但它比Arabic easier to learn

Is it even worth it with ChatGPT being a thing now? Like, imagine putting all that force into working or if you're in the school you could spend that time with maths instead and actually become a straight A student. Is it valid, or am I missing something?

I live in Shanghai and can confirm my Chinese got worse since moving here. So sad. (I used to live in a 3rd tier city).

The tones and grammatical sentence building seems similar to Thai. Ive heard from Thais that the sounds of chinese are easier for English speakers because those sound just don't exist in Thai

Anyway you cut it, learning another language is hard and you should be proud of your efforts. Good on you all and thank you for showing how hard it can be.

Also big ups to Peppa pig, the best teacher

I'm 14, learning Chinese. It'd probably take me 10 years to be fluent, the way I'm crawling T_T

I've been following your channel since thinking about teaching in China and I'm about to move to Cixi next month. Have you been? Whats it like learning Chinese and how is it living in a smaller city?

It really takes time to acquire this language, the most important thing is trying to enjoy your study journey and make something you learned practical by any means.

bro you are such a normie

Achieving HSK 6 after 1 year is crazy haha. Been living in China 5 years and just started HSK 6 half a year ago

I am learning mandarin my first language is Kiswahili 😢I am really trying my best but I have to admitt it is kinda hard

I actually hate using the pinyin keyboard. Once my screen isn't cracked anymore, I like using the writing keyboard.

I am like that, after 10 minutes of learning Japanese 😂

你学的真的很好了

我们学英语也很痛苦😢😢😢

If I was as handsome and sexy as you are, I would be focusing on onlyfans. Share the link if you have one.

Really loved your video! I used I SPEAK CHINESE app on google to move away from just learning to learning by speaking. Cuz I had to learn really fast before moving to Shanghai. But for some ppl reading and writing are waaaaay more important. Thank you for sharing your resources, story and tips ❤❤❤
