how do you get a bike there?

In north america people were not brought under a very hyerarchised society , people are more equals

You speak and read Chinese, impressed.

Impressive (but actually this is what to expect with a thought through structured systematic approach, plus sufficient time put aside every day - you obviously did all that - and got the results). The link to the 中文 series is dead, and 中文 is a very generic term. But with 暨南中文 you can find them. And if you follow the ... //old.hwjyw..... link you can find the PDFs for ALL study and workbooks - free! Bonus: If you find the link to the old books, there are beside the workbook 2 more excercise books for each 1-12 book - so there are 48 books to download!

You are correct about personal info. Lifelong friends will learn over time what your likes and habits are, and you find a role in that circle over a span of years. But Americans are constantly required to fit into new groups, and information that might help you fit in-and that the new group feels Is important-- has to be exchanged in a relative hurry. My American family members-including in-laws-like to draw my attention to things they notice about strangers’ clothing or actions or other features than are no one’s business. They don’t say it to that person, but they say it to me loud enough for others to hear. Even if their comments are complimentary, it’s rude. So the customary time for lunch was 2 pm, but you would go at some other time because 1:30 or so was more convenient for you? Hm. That sounds a bit…American, to me.😄 I am shocked, gratified, and a little horrified to hear someone describe our institutions and bureaucracies as efficient. However, “Make it better” IS deeply ingrained in the American DNA.

I’m very late to this video so I will watch your update after! but I learned Chinese for four years in high school and I am currently in my third year of college and haven’t been keeping up with the language currently plan on brushing up on what I learned and expanding which is how I stumbled upon this video 🫶🏽

Hey, do you mind sharing the name of the hotel? I am going to Shanghai this coming June ☺ Great video btw!

Parabéns pelo seu Sucesso em aprender o Chinês! Obrigado pela motivação para seguir em frente! Xiè xie! Paulo do Brasil🌻

So good for 3 months. Well done.

你好厲害👍

It's said that Germans are coconuts--hard-shelled but soft if you penetrate it. Americans are peaches--soft until you encounter a hard core you can't penetrate.

Did you travel all by yourself? And if so, how was that experience, I am planning to solo travel through China for 2 months

妙

Recommended to find China mutton soup and mutton ramen restaurants, mutton delicacies are the most delicious meat delicacies in China

I feel you might make Shanghai your home. The vibe suits you 🏡

Hello, please, can you send me name of your Italki tutor?

In Shanghai, there is a Nanjing road. In Nanjing, there is a Shanghai road. LOL

Lunch at 2 pm? That's half way between lunch and supper

很棒的视频🎉昆明特别美，有空可以去丽江、玉龙雪山玩玩，还能徒步虎跳峡，再往北还有梅里雪山

Was it easy to bike on the streets in Shanghai?

15:00 i disagree a bit with this thought, let me explain why In Chinese especially, words that you think aren't that useful to study, will come handy later. In university all my classmates (including me) were complaining about us having to study how to write magnetic tape 磁带 （ci2 dai4), because who uses those anymore to listen to music?? But later on, I found out that fridge magnet is 磁铁 and that necktie is 领带, then something clicked into my mind and it all made sense. As well as another chinese word: mao2dun4 矛盾 meaning contradiction, but literaly meaning just spear and shield. (The reason was because of a story of merchant selling the sharpest spear that no shield could resist, but also selling the most resistant shield that no spear could scrach. So that was a contraddiction...) But anyway, even though you think it isnt very useful to learn how to say sword of words like that, its always good to know!

很有帮助！ 多谢你

great

Would you please update the Zhong Wen books link? I cant download them

Hey there! 😊 Nice to see new content from you! 🌟 I first discovered your channel when you visited the Lotte Sky Bridge in Seoul. Thanks for the recommendation back then! 👍 Keep up the great work, and best regards from Croatia! 🇭🇷💙

I have always admired your videos. I could relate to them, being of similar age, a tech person and pursuing my master's at the same time as you as well. You learning chinese was my inspiration to start learning french, have been taking classes for just over a year now. Hope, one day, I can travel just as much too😅 Great to have you back!

Nice to see you are back! I have missed and miss your other videos! The street food looks so good. The candies made of yak milk look like nougat, wonder what that tastes like

Wow, you're in Yunnan, which is a beautiful province. AND you should totally check out Guangxi too, especially Yangshuo - it's got some of the most amazing scenery in all of China!

Learning Chinese too and inspired by your progress and efforts!

Hey, Nice to see you after a long long time!

I am not learning Chinese or any other Asian languages, but it is amazing to see the progress people can make in what is universally considered 'difficult' languages for speakers of Indo-European languages. I am learning Finnish, which is also very different from Slavic, Germanic, and Romance languages, and it has been very motivational to see your progress.

You’re an inspirational person Adrianna! Well done! This is a tremendous achievement!

As a native Chinese speaker, I am currently learning Spanish. I think your spoken Chinese is more standard than many Chinese people. I can completely understand what you are saying without relying on your mouth shape and subtitles (most Chinese taxi drivers cannot let me able to do this). I really hope one day I can speak Spanish like you do in Chinese

Amazing. Please make videos and post them regularly.. (travel and regular day in my life videos )

very helpfull indeed, thanks for sharing

Hi🙋‍♂️👋, welcome back! We missed your awesome content!

Hey Adrianna. I was just thinking of your channel and your video dropped. Glad to know you are doing well.

Hey 👋 welcome back long time. Even though I don't understand what you are saying 😅

So impressive! So glad you’re back ❤

very useful and interesting. What about pronunciation ? ( pinyin syllables etc ) you never mentioned how you learnt, could you expand on that please? many thanks.

Are you still studying Chinese? Just curious on your progress. 😊

I’m studying from almost two months and I was able to understand everything u say what a nice feeling:(((

Thañk youuuuu ur video when u started learning makes me feel im okay cause i read pinyin really slowly

Hey there I am starting out on my journey with Chinese and appreciate your video keep up the good work kind regards Worrell Robinson from London UK...

The zhon wen books link is not working for me. I’m impressed! I’m using about 5 different things and I’m getting very frustrated. I have a linq subscription but can’t figure out how to use it.
