Happy Chinese, Episode 3, Dumplings (Learning Chinese Series)

[@patricianguyen7012]

The script and filming style reminded me of an old American sitcom like full house.

快乐汉语- 第三集-包饺子 大伟放松点儿。这几天大家表现都不错。表现最好的那就是要既热情又自然，还要分寸拿得恰到好处，既有淑女风范，那就是你妈。 可是客人在吧，我总觉得有点拘束。 再坚持一天，客人一走大家都可以放松了。今天是初五，明天初六，我估计呀苏珊也该回学校了。破五吃饺子今天大家齐上阵。老伴儿发围裙。 哎 来。你的， 你的， 给你。 今天玩儿得太开心了，尤其是那个叫卖，oh, very, very good! 你都听懂了？ 大概百分之三十。 听力的初级水平。 对，初级水平。 我当时光顾着喝茶汤，一心不能二用。还有这个糖葫芦，越看越想吃。 哎哟，您就留点儿胃口吧，一会儿回家还得吃饺子呢。 对。 吃饺子？ 我们的习俗啊，大年初五得吃饺子。 对。 我喜欢吃饺子，我爱吃饺子。 麦苗，你们也去逛庙会了？ 您也去了？ 是啊！这是谁呀？ 这是我同学，苏珊，美国来的。这位是我邻居，大家都叫她刘姐。 啊刘姐，你好，我是苏珊。您贵姓？，您叫什么名字？ 我姓刘，我叫刘丽云。 刘姐，你好，过年好！ 苏珊过年好！ (2 :48) 你就是苏珊阿姨吧？阿姨好！ 你好小朋友，你叫什么名字？ 我叫乐乐。 哦，你就是乐乐呀！ 喂你好！ 请问老李在家吗？ 我舅舅不在，请问您是？ 我是他的同事，想问他剧本的事儿。 哦，那我转告他吧。您贵姓？ 我姓林，叫林峰。谢谢你，再见。 再见。 (4:52) 小伟，馅儿要少放点盐。老伴儿，这面要多揉一会儿。刘雅，这个饺子要薄皮大馅。包出形状来。 你就别操心了。 能不操心嘛?这顿饺子具有展示我国传统美食的重要意义。 要不您来？ 小伟，咱爸不干家务已经很多年了。就剩动动嘴了。 说什么呢？ 就剩给我们大家伙指导了。 我们可不缺指导，您亲自来得了。 对呀。爸爸。 来来来。亲自来，亲自来。来来来。 大家一起来，一起来。我就当个艺术总监就行了。 我们回来啦！ 哎呀，这个大熊猫啊！就等着你们了！庙会逛得怎么样？ 收获很多。 要不是因为吃饺子呀。她这串糖葫芦也进肚子了！ 饺子在哪里？ 饺子的萌芽状态。 苏珊你看，这个是面，这个呢是馅。 然后把这馅包到这个饺子皮里，然后这么一捏，就成饺子了。 真的啊？ 苏珊呀，我们想邀请你一起包饺子。不知道你有没有兴趣呀。 我包饺子？太棒了！ 先洗手。 这饺子皮擀的。very good! 跟它的伙伴们不太一样。 初学乍练，这就是算擀得不错了。苏珊呀，包一个饺子试试。 你看，就这样。一捏，这就成了。 Great, 一捏，就成了。 这是什么？ 苏珊包的饺子。 这跟它的伙伴们就更不像了。 啊，露馅儿了！你们笑什么？ 你知道“露馅儿”是什么意思呢？ 馅儿露出来了。 “露馅儿”就是把原本想隐瞒的事实给暴露了。 你好比啊，一只伪装好的狐狸一不小心露出了它那尾巴。 这包饺子没学会，先学会一词儿。 是，学会了，学会了，“露馅儿”。 这包饺子可不能露馅儿，要不然，放锅里一煮它就成片儿汤了。 我们过春节包饺子还有一个传统节目，这个奥妙啊就在馅儿里。 停，就先说到这儿啊，留点儿悬念。 留点儿什么悬念？ 舅舅把编剧的技巧用这儿了！苏珊，你电话。 我电话？喂，oh, dad! 等我一会儿，等我一会儿。 哎，谁有硬币？ 我早就准备好了，而且呀都消完毒了。 好。 我知道这是干什么的。 爷爷说要留着悬念。 悬念，悬念。 我回来了！ 苏珊，你和你爸谈的怎么样？啊，那怎么办啊？ 别说这些，继续包饺子。 (8:48) 在哪儿呢？ 你找什么？ 哎呀，我找眼镜。这卧室里没有，书房里没有，这厨房也没有。 那，这是什么？ 咳！ 我有音乐会的票，你们谁想去？ 我先去。 你呢？ 什么时候的？ 明天晚上七点。 明天晚上我有事儿。苏珊，你去吧。 你有什么事儿啊？ 不告诉你。 (10:38) 太好了，该吃饺子啦！ 苏珊是咱们家的客人，请她吃第一个。 煮熟的饺子更可爱，直接吃吗？ 我给你示范一下，先把筷子拿起来，然后夹一个饺子，醮一下料，放在嘴里。 嗯，香 香。 它太滑了。 小伟，去把那刀叉拿来。 不用，我自己备了。 来，请请。 这样是吗？太好吃了！ 好吃就多吃。 来来来。 苏珊阿姨，你是不是今天吃完饺子，明天就走了？ 我往哪儿走呢？ 你不是要去学校吗？ 乐乐，不许乱说！ 你们不欢迎我吗？ (没有没有)，哪有的事而阿。 苏珊， 你能来到我们家，我们非常高兴。（对对) 我们欢迎你。 我们大家都喜欢你。(对)。你愿意在我门家住多久都行。(对对对) 那太好了 那我就不走了。 啊！ 我要 我爸不要。。。 事情是这样的 由于苏珊呢太热爱中国文化她没跟家里打招呼 就来中国留学了。 苏珊阿姨是偷跑出来了？ 我要独立 我爸爸同意了。 好。 等会儿 我还没说完呢。这个独立也包括经济上的独立。她老爸再也不会给她寄钱了。她要勤工俭学为了省钱 她要在咱家永远地住下去。 没关系。以后啊 你就把我们这儿当成你自己的家。 我们呢 也不拿你当外人了。咱们今天是初五吃饺子 咱们正月十五接茬咱们就吃元宵。 "元宵"？ 那个就像兵乓球一样的甜饺子。 太棒啦 太棒啦！ 来来来 吃吧 快吃吧！ 来 喝饺子汤了。 原汤化原食。 什么？ 就是用煮饺子的汤来帮助消化饺子。 这是吃饺子的最后一个节目。 最后一个节目？那你们说的那个悬念呢？ 哦 对了 还有悬念！老伴儿现在可以说了吗？ 这奥妙就在这饺子馅里。 按照我们中国过年的传统啊包饺子的时候呢 要包一个有特殊馅的幸运饺子。 在这个幸运饺子里 我们放了一枚硬币。 对，谁吃到这个饺子呀，谁就是最幸运的人。 他们把我想说的都说完了。 幸运饺子 真有趣！ 慢着 慢着！这枚硬币谁吃到了？ 没赶上我。 不是我，不是我，我没吃着。 那这枚硬币到底让谁给吃到了？ 是不是露馅了 煮在锅里了？ 哎哟！ 怎么了？ 肚子疼！ 坏了！他把硬币吃肚子里了！ 哎哟！ 快上医院！等等 乐乐 你手里攥的什么？ 啊哦。。。 乐乐 你露馅了！

This is a great series for learning thank you so much. I can only understand a little so far but I plan on watching all episodes to help my ears adjust. Thank you!

[@walterjszafran]

Damn they were so nice taking Susan under their wing like that. It’s like the fresh prince all over again 😪

[@David_Lloyd-Jones]

You know this is a scripted TV show, I assume?

[@davidsalterego4481]

@@David_Lloyd-Jones Of course he knows. That’s why he compared it to another tv show

[@primarysources8942]

Yes I was thinking the same hahaha

[@codyheiner3636]

Speaks Chinese like she's been studying for years, doesn't know how to use chopsticks... Kappa.

[@learnenglishwithme2974]

Cody Heiner I honestly am on her same lever but never used chopsticks before!

[@tannerhayes7996]

I can use chopsticks like a pro, but just a rookie in Chinese

[@slamdunk406]

I know, right?

this series is very helpful for beginners like myself.. And funny/entertaining too.. thanx!!

[@sylviayang3645]

How long have you learned Chinese?

[@dt6692]

Susan is really a freeloader!

[@SyncroSal]

why they make susan look dumb af in every episode smh lmaoooo

[@sabrina3138]

I-😭😭💀. She probably what Americans look like to them

[@SyncroSal]

Sabrina most definitely were all dumb in their eyes 😭😭😭🤣

[@awol6574]

It's because she focusing too much on speaking the language so she has dumbed down also it's unfamiliar to her

[@slamdunk406]

Seriously!

[@thelaurab03]

Why is the dialogue at a much higher level than the lessons in between? Doesn't make sense...

[@antoineweb1]

watch this show once you have learnt all the vocab from hsk 1 to hsk 5, then it's a blast

[@codyheiner3636]

Yeah wish they would just not have those little cartoony lessons. Doesn't at all fit with the show.

[@PsychosisFire]

By the time you've learnt all the vocab from HSK 5, you won't need to watch this show... I'm just about at HSK 3 right now, and I have to pause and rewind most sentences several times to fully understand them without reading the English or Hanzi.

[@antoineweb1]

I know all the vocab from hsk1 to HSK5, and this is really useful, actually they use vocab from even higher than hsk 5. But yes, it's useful for the oral part. the "real life" side that you don't always get in manuals

[@derekoreborn]

It's good for soaking your brain in the language you want to acquire. The oddest bits will float up to the surface of your memory in the future.

[@danielbain3189]

idk how. but I'm hooked on this show. 谢谢 for teaching me 中文

[@IS-ke3ny]

Ya! I love this show!!!

[@devandooling3266]

It's not really living independently if you are just swapping one family for another

[@ClementeFélixLasvega]

非常感谢 给们 它个好 故事😂😂😂！

[@slamdunk406]

Casting aside the fact that Suzan comes off as dumb/annoying, this series is great for listening practice! I'm around an HSK3-4 level, so it's like the perfect level for me to be listening to. These shows are certainly entertaining with regard to how they portray Susan and how the family responds to her, which I think is the whole idea behind the series, lol. Like honestly, if I was them, Susan would annoy me to no end! LMAO!

[@ЕвгенийГригорьев-г2с]

so kindly people! how do I wish all of the families be like them!

[@alisumer9470]

Anyway to get the subtitle files?

[@tikibell9561]

Greeks have a tradition like the jahosi thing they bake cake put a coin inside then whoever finds the coin will be lucky for the whole year!!!

[@LizTiddington]

We do that with Christmas Pudding in the UK - I wonder how many countries have a similar tradition?

[@happyjessus]

+Tiki Bell are you Greek or you just happen to know about this? btw boiling a coin along with the food is disgusting, in Greece we usually use some aluminium paper to cover it up and then shove it in the cake

[@gamezila1987]

Is there a show that does the same as this one for Japanese?

[@Astro80s]

This was my online homework

Maybe I am socially inept but that was hard to watch

[@tannewton]

what if someone really swallows a coin by accident? Isn't it dangerous?

[@tannewton]

I know, I have watched all 117 episodes, already. And now I am waiting for CCTV to continue this show. But perhaps, for some reason they never will continue it.

Does somebody know good videos for HSK3-HSK 4 level ? Any good cartoon or shows easier than that would be really appreciated ! Susan pretends she does not speak well mandarin, meanwhile I don't understand shit they are saying .

[@flexworld585]

They're speaking too fast... I think they should adopt extra Spanish ... It's from basic to advance

[@DougieZhang]

why did I watch this

[@tartar5924]

Every one is very funny

[@loc1995cc]

chinese voice is not too good but its character is so beautiful.

[@BrokeTheInterweb]

Be kinder to your fellow Americans, their underestimation hurts the nation's people as a whole.

[@it8ntme823]

It’s true that many white people who speak mandarin can’t use chopsticks‼️ My last year of high school I took a mandarin class and became such good friends with my 老师 that she invited me out to dinner with her highest-level Mandarin students who were also graduating. We ate at a Chinese restaurant, they gave us chopsticks, and to my shock not a single one of the high level white students knew how to use them. Just me and two other ethnically Chinese students. I’m white! I barely spoke mandarin and I still knew how to use them. Watching them struggle to pick up food while speaking advanced mandarin was sad. Aiya, why learn a language without learning the culture and customs too

[@leoxie1971]

wow, it's a fascinating channle, these sentences are veeery common in chnese daily talk, and the speed is little lower than normal,which is better to help your listening exercise. to be frankly, I know the feeling that you feel, lol, cuz I have been struggling to studying english, so I feel english is much complicated, too many vocabularies, grammar and the sentence pronunciation. but I am desperate to improve my english, may I ask is there anybody'd like to study with me? please kindly DM me, I could help you with your chinese, and I'd like to consult some quetsions to you when you are free, I definitely won't distubing you too much, I am stuying by myself most of time, but I am worry about my pronunciation.

[@lovekidchanel1717]

😁😁😁

[@erikawu7078]

she's not a piece of sh*t! You are. Stop making fun of her.

[@MusiciansReflib]

Amazing work on this. Yes Susan's character is a little annoying. The script calls for her to be a typical American. Most the world perceives the average American as obnoxious and naive. I do not think the writers did all that bad a job though. Most my fellow Americans don't have the education I have, nor the gene pool.

[@JenaDies]

中文那么难啦

[@littlebeartarot7692]

他的普通话说得非常好，但他一点也不会用筷子？而且他就让那个老口子真不好意思。因为他们很客气他们好像被利用了，无法拒绝苏珊。
