I work at a call center, thank you so much. This is incredibly helpful

SOOOOOO MUCH FALSE CREATED HISTORY HERE! People.....do your own research and you may learn the truth about this first female Emperor of China.

i'm watching this because i'm a language teacher for foreign students and most of the students we deal with are chinese, so i want to convey how much i care by learning their names and pronouncing them as correctly as i possibly can. i hope i dont screw up big time ㅠ.ㅠ

Thank you so much for this!

Thank You for this episode. I was really powerful. As an African American I would love to see films that help in understanding between Black and Asian people. In some US cities our two communities have a long history. It would be great to see some of those positive stories told.

Thanks a lot for this concise and clear-cut story about the Heian female Literature. It's quite helpful even for a Japanese like me. (I confess with regret that I do not know the full story of the Tale of Genji.) Will try to find out if any newer films from you are also available on YT.

Hello, my name is Arlo~~ Koreans are separated by political ideology similarly to how India and Pakistan are seperated by religion, hindu and muslim, respectively. The people are are same but the political ideology differs. Korea is on a peninsula.

You obviously did not do much research on one of the greatest personal human bridges in the Meiji restoration. Nitobe Inazo. Please get your facts corrected

The speaker of this video quite clearly has some background in the Chinese language, as can be told from his pronunciation of the words "tongmenghui" or "guomingdang". But why can't he get the pronunciation of the main character's family name, Sun, right?

I think Americans and other westerners are very sensitive to the accuracy of pronunciation. Modern-day westerners would interpret the Portuguese and Spanish variants of the given name as completely different names, while Chinese people accept that there are different pronunciations of their own names right from birth. Not just Chinese, but across the Sinosphere. When it comes to East Asian writings, there is a lot of logographic borrowing, and the logographic borrowing will end up having a regional pronunciation. So, pronouncing Chinese names accurately often is to make westerners feel better about themselves, even though "accuracy" here really means the standard Chinese pronunciation, not regional Chinese pronunciation. Both the standard Chinese and regional Chinese pronunciation of the same name are BOTH "accurate" and would be acceptable. But standard Chinese is much more teach-able so people use that instead. Also, I would add that it's not just Americans or westerners, but really anybody who is not Chinese, finding themselves in a situation in which they have to pronounce foreign names.

Trading privileges = import of opium basically drug the whole nation

It is highly important to gain benefits from Western and Eastern Medicine. There is no point to criticize either one. Treat patients and help them to regain good health is of utmost importance.

Thank you

We've all heard of weed killers but now we know of weeb killers. This video being such.

Just curious

Very interesting video, thank you

Helping non-chinese people with pronunciuation of names is a good idea, however, only people with frequent contact and the will to learn will make the effort. THIS is why, it is easier and more convienient to select and use a good english name if you are in an English speaking country. Those of us who live in multinational countries like Australia, US and UK have seen this all before. . Many of us are or grew up with non english speaking Europeans, many of them, shortened, repronounced, respelled or completely changed their names when comming to our countries. The same would be expected of us when moving to many foreign countries. . Some their names where not even written with the english writing system. . for the Europeans, Martino, becomes Martin Luigi becomes Lou Salvatour becomes sal and many others . for some Chinese speakers very little modification is required Li Li ( pretty pretty) becomes Lilly ( the flower) Lu Na, (pretty jade) becomes Luna ( like the moon) An or Anh ( in Viet) or many variations becomes Ann or Anna Dong becomes Don Li, Lei or many variations becomes Lee . some there are direct translations like Jade Pearl Various flower names. . Many Chinese speakers are not happy with their given names and are very happy to have the opportunity to select something else. My friend Susanna, is from Hong Kong and has not used her Chinese name either with the family or in public, since she was a child. Among my Viet friends I know about six ladies called "Phuong" ( they all know each other), It's a very common name, for convienience at least half of them use another name. . Some persist with difficult ( for eurpeans) names, to their disadvantage. . Finally if you have children in the west, it is a very good option to have both a Chinese and an English given name recorded on their birth certificate. I know two brothers, one uses his English name, the other uses his Chinese name, they have both legally recorded.

China cannot adopt democracy. It has to hold absolute control of the massive population.

Thank you for this lecture! It was very intersting and informative.

Didn‘t the poverty rate plummet already in the 90s, long before 2001?

This surname is distributed in the north of Dongbei, the North China plain and North-west China.

It's very much similar to Mahabharata.

So helpful!!!!! Love this

I Read a book called Kumagai - Memoirs of a warrior. Kumagai was a samurai of the era who out lived a few of the leaders of the time,and after Genpei wars retired to the mountains to become a lay priest, he had a room down the hall from the few biwa hoshi who were writing odes of the war etc.. Hearing them singing their newly written lyrics Kumagai would get angry because some if not alot were false as they were too young for the time and had not been there.. especially the Atsumori account... Kumagai fought for both the Taira and Minamoto at different times...

I read names for graduation ceremonies in the UK - this is super useful! Thank you!

wrong

Excellent video!

sun was not the father of the prc, but the father of the republic of china, the prc is an authoritarian police state that suppresses its people, sun wanted freedom and harmony in all the races of china, democratic representation, and tridemism, the only nation that successfully implemented sun yat sens philosophy is the republic of china

It was actually her daughter and it's speculation

Is this the naval battle depicted in the movie Kwaidan?

I am an education coordinator 🙃 who works with international kids. I needed this.

If you can find it, read "Seeds of the Heart." It analyses Japanese literature from the beginning through the 1950s.

It's my Chinese Surname but I pronounced it differently.

My surname is Lin

The Emnishi were horse riding warrriors archers of Northern Honshu that live by hunter gathering living in small communities consisting pit dwelling up until 700AD. The North east Asia were herders with smaller horses. I say many attempts were made by the Northeast warriors but were defeated every time by Superior Horses and Bows of the Emishi and Northeasters never took afoot hold. Khan try again in 1200 twice and also got his ass kicked by superior warriors. From the 750 wet rice farmers back heavy back by heavy infantry from the civilised south intergraded with the native hierarchy domains and became Chans of the civilises from the 800 onwards. That my knowledge on the subject.

I'm half way through Genji at present, it is transporting.

Thie lecturers' summary and characterisation of the Samurai is typical of college professors. Criticizing the warrior classes sense of honor and commitment to war against their enemies. Ask any combat veteran if the Samurai principles are worthy of praise and we'll say yes. The professor has not had to fight for anything and naively believes that the world we live in isn't violent. No one truly knows themselves or others until they have had to fight. Most times, honor is more important than our lives. The lives of those around us are more important than our own. Hence the Maxim, death before dishonor.

I'm so suprized now. It is very similar to Old Turkish.😯

Tragic that Mao wasn't killed along the way.

I thought that Chinese characters were brought to Japan Far earlier than the 6th Century, I thought they came at like the 100s or 200s but wasn't Utilized until then.

So hard

This professor cant even pronounce これ....

I cannot stop laughing. Learning Chinese is helping me improve my Spanish lmaooo. I rolled the R in Ruoxin by accident lmaoo. I can't even do it when speaking Spanish.
