[@emcgough]

Not sure if you are a fashion model or a language teacher, but I enjoy the combination in your videos

[@themandarinmelon]

Wuuuu thank you for the compliments🤗✨ I’m definitely not a fashion model hahaha but I was a fashion photographer😉

[@Averagebum21]

呵呵。

[@elifkanwal]

I like your video because you just jumped on to the main part without any un-necessary time wastage.

[@themandarinmelon]

Ha! thank U!! guess that's because I always skip the intro when I watch videos 😂

[@Ebenezer456]

This video is really excellent. The quality and attention to detail are extremely high. I honestly cannot imagine how long it takes you to shoot, edit and add subtitles to them - it must be a big job! In terms of learning, I like how you don't put the 拼音 subtitles, because it forces me to read the 汉字. When I watch videos with 拼音, it's very hard to resist reading it. I actually knew most of these terms, but the dialogues are still super useful and help to reinforce them, as well as introducing other useful terms and phrases. Great job, and I will be watching more! 😻😻😻

your my favourite teacher cos of the northern stuff! Do you think when you read the northern part can you say it normally for one and also in your dongbei accent too so i can copy it rather than reading it with standard pronounciation =D.

Hahaha I’d love to😉the thing is my Donbei accent is not strong enough as I normally speak standard Mandarin🤣🤣 it feels like I need to practice my donbei accent more

1 Chinese phrase I use all the time as a non-native speaker: "要了" (yào le): "Is killing" or "is taking.", as in 学中文简直要了我的命。 以下是一些备选的回答： 甲：“你知道章鱼有三个心脏吗？” 乙：“我不知道。谢谢你提供的无用冷知识。” 甲：“现在几点啦？” 乙：“该是你买个手表的时候了。” 甲：“好困啊，真想多睡一会儿。” 乙：“怎么了？是不是因为我们刚刚吃了午饭？” 甲：“我等会儿再打给你，我手机快没电了。“ 乙： ”得了！别再找借口了。我知道我这个人真没趣。“ 甲：”我周末要加班，不能和你一起去看电影了。“ 乙： ”啊，这样啊，没关系。我一个人去。“ 甲： ”今天天气真好。“ 乙： ”对啊，我也喜欢倾盆大雨。“ 甲：“我马上就到！” 乙：“我看到你已经到了，但是你骑的那匹马呢？” 甲：”你会来参加我的婚礼吗？“ 乙：”没准儿……你结婚的日期是什么？让我先看看那天的天气预报吧。“ 甲：“你的论文我帮你写吧。” 乙：“真的假的？” 甲：“当然是假的。我这个人哪里那么好？”
