Intonation

Looks like a fun full day of yummy delicious food Love to hang out with you one day for food around Beijing

what was the restaurant you had the duck please

lol at 1:20 why did the person flip the skewers when they can literally flip themselves 🤦🏽‍♂️

cute

Cool vid.

I'm sorry, I think it's a misleading title. It's not a problem to remember that there are 4 (or 5 if we count neutral one) tones and how they sound. The real problem is to REMEMBER tones, i.e. to know what word/character should be in what tone. To remember "vocab" is absolutely easy, no difference from other languages, 是 is shi and it's "to be", period. Anybody can learn it in just a few minutes (ok, to remember its writing it takes more time). But to remember its tone - it's a real task (without a good solution except just repeat repeat repeat which is not a "method" per se). Foreigners have absolutely no clue, no idea why it's 4th tone, we have no analogy to anything, we have nothing to link it to. Colors, hand gestures don't work. Realms (like mountains, plain, ocean bottom, waterfall) hmmm don't think so either. After just a few weeks or months of studies, there'll be a dozen of shi characters (师是事识时...), really no problem to remember that they all are shi and what they mean and how they used - it's like in other languages, but absolutely no way to remember which of them should be with what tone. If that solution were the topic of your video - that would be priceless.

great.

great video guys!

Nice Video can you share the location of these restaurants please.

We are very interested in visiting Green Tea when we come to Beijing next year, but do they have an English menu? Great videos guys, keep it up. 😁

Wow. I struggled most before with 4th tone. Almost strangled myself trying to start high and end up low! Your suggestions are brilliant. Thank you

I came to this video for the tones, I stayed at this channel for this couple <3

Excellent bro

Wow, you guys are great teachers. Could you also explain how to use tones when you speak fast? Like when you say whole sentences in everyday conversation, etc.

西安这么好玩, 我也想去

Lowest tone should be called, Mr. Bean
