我喜欢这个视频因为我百分之90听懂，谢谢 :)

[@lacasa1361]

我也喜欢，但是我还是可以百分之七十五听懂

[@Karakai117]

Hey guys, great video! Can I just recommend that you put your videos (episodes 1-15 so far) into a playlist? If you make it part of a series as well it should bring in more views as they will pool in people from from "suggested videos" and then the playlist should also play automatically for easier viewing. As a brit that lived in Beijing for a year but never learnt anything past my address and how to buy stuff, i've put it upon myself to actually learn a lot more of the language. These videos are a great help and easily some of the best on the internet!

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

+SmallGodFly Thanks! And that's a good suggestion, I'll do that!

[@languagetime306]

Thank-you for sharing your journey with us, George, it was quite an inspirational one!. 祝你好运 :)

[@gentoffire]

U guys nailed it, I can understand u perfectly

[@chitranter2746]

Inspiring!

[@tarunjain123able]

I only understand words but don't understand the sentence , even all words in one sentence but can't translate , may be I learned lots of word I don't know what is problem with me , I learned about 300 words in 6 months and know all basic sentence structure but still can't translate in my mind but if it's pinyin I can understand 60%-70% of meaning by words

[@Whistfulthinking]

Just have patience and try to speak to a Chinese person every day

[@seanspartan2023]

Practice with the characters on flash cards. As you go, put the characters you know well aside and keep practicing. Eventually you will learn all the characters

[@ronanohara662]

I really hope I can reach a level even half as good as this.

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

+Ronan O'Hara If you keep at it, you will...

[@edRitchiee]

+Fluent in Mandarin.com sooo how do i say 语言学院 without my lips melting ???

[@clairesugar8spice825]

Ronan O'Hara wo ye! ;-)

[@kuijinsong4101]

[@mudanedhaashane5254]

[@ladderman6938]

Awesome.....!!

[@slipperyfloor226]

Wow this is awesome

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

Thanks!

[@azzao4321]

Fantastic puts a smile to my face

[@eugenedanker2377]

One sign of fluency in a language is understanding humor.

[@richardgere9365]

Surely you guys would be in Mandarin equivalent of IELTS band 8/9 users (advanced or expert users of the language) level?

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

Not sure Richard, there is a test of Chinese ability (HSK), but I haven't taken it.

[@jorjihonma7414]

+The Wakayama Boy Because IELTS has been used as a requirement for getting further education as well as for employment, while HSK hasn't been marketed that way. But it is moving more and more towards that direction, copying the way how IELTS is functioning.

[@ValleyData]

Love this.

[@adnanhussein1743]

The first time I watched this was January 2019 I don't understand even single word. After two years january 2021 I am glad I can speak like them and understand everything they are talking. Alhamdulilah.

[@Ross.Cavendish]

What is Chinese for "George is a nice bit of crumpet"?

[@lyllianlee4017]

两个人都说的很好诶！你们好励志⋯⋯我也要努力啦！住你们今后学习生活一切顺利！

[@口折]

只听george说话想象不出是个外国人。没想到现在已经有外国人可以把中文说的这么好了

[@hannahduggan3599]

You guys are adorable.

[@jorjihonma7414]

Like Both of you smiling at each other when Chris said the word LAOWAI at 9:10.

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

haha

[@cedricsellambin6652]

Jawdroppingly inspiring!

[@lolam4209]

Very good Chinese. Impressive

[@stephaniefuccio4461]

Impressive. As a beginning Chinese language learner I wanted pinyin subtitles though. thanks for the inspiration

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

Not really sure how to do Pinyin subtitles..

[@raymondonfire]

Still loving these recordings. Awesome! Best on youtube! Could you add Hanzi character subtitles? Easy then to get to pinyin with Google translate.

[@onidraw1162]

i heard fa yu ! which means french if i'm not wrong hahaha x) what were you talking about ? x)

[@stephenbudd6375]

I'm just starting to learn so could only pick out small bits of speech, my biggest fear is traditional Chinese character reading and writing

[@张梦琳-j9c]

Don't worry about traditional Chinese reading, you can learn it by following some Taiwanese memes pages on Instagram, I did that and now I am able to read a lot of traditional Chinese, it's a really funny way to learn Chinese. Of course I can't write traditional but currentIy i don't need it, I'm interested to learn it but in the future

[@theemperorofindia1403]

Love this! Reminds me of the good old opium war days

[@shirinabdulla559]

this video motivates me to learn Chiense

[@gracewang6909]

太棒了～😊

[@UltimateMoralizer]

Wow, it’s unbelievable how fluent you guys are in Chinese. It’s one of the hardest languages to learn.

[@sanhuan9840]

青岛有什么好玩的？吃大虾？

[@gunderderek1749]

發音發的好準喔！加油啊！

[@jorjihonma7414]

请放上英文字幕，这样中文还不太好的人也能看懂听懂。因为你们对他们是最好的激励和榜样。

[@albertwongwong9806]

Wow....

[@joeyxu8159]

超级棒❤️

[@hyejinheo3663]

你好。 我想问你一个啊。 我自己学习了汉语只有三四个月。最问题是口语。一直觉得我的口语练习不过。 你怎么解决过了这点问题？ 啊， 先该问你是不是有这样的难点了。 you might not understand me speaking Chinese. probably i better write in english again. I have been studying Chinese for almost 4 months. i never took the proper class so only thing i can do is talking to myself which i don't think works well. How did u improve your speaking skills? Thxs for your reply in advance :)

[@robinmailhot3993]

If you have some money you can try Italki.com you can get some really good teachers or tutors for a really really affordable price. goo luck in your learnings !

[@iJamesGuo]

10 years to achieve such a fluency! Quit impressive.

[@megkiechang2671]

你说的中文很好!

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

谢谢！

[@hec4840]

[@eugenedanker2377]

Chinese is right up there with Portuguese for beautiful languages.

[@Nunawariyaku]

我不明白，几乎没有什么 :P I only speak spanish and english xD

[@nicholejones3876]

I swear nothing is more attractive than white guys (from anywhere) speaking East Asian languages 😍😍😍

[@FluentinMandarinDotCom]

Haha really?

[@nicholejones3876]

Fluent in Mandarin.com - Yes really! The languages are beautiful and there's something about non natives/asians speaking them that is just super satisfying and attractive. I'm learning Japanese and am trying to get my British boyfriend to learn with me 😁

[@Fluskar]

Nichole Jones loool

[@blackshirtuk]

非常棒，竟然没有什么口音！很难得。

[@bbloran]

[@jorjihonma7414]

为什么这儿有些人用中文留言时会说些肮脏的字眼，比起他们二位，你们的水准尤其是做人的水准也太让人不敢恭维了。

[@elliechen685]

卧槽，算标准了已经

[@waynegilbert9517]
