I am only starting my journey to learning Mandarin Chinese and I'm happy to have come across your channel. Your examples using movies are very catchy. Hoping to see more of your content and learn from them.

[@StratosFair]

I like how you use clips from Chinese shows and movies to illustrate, it's a good way to practice listening to real-life Chinese !

As an American learning Chinese this has been soooooo frustrating for me. Thank you very much for this video! I was just discussing this with my kids. 😂😂😂I wanted to show off and answer back yes in Chinese and i couldn’t after months of study! 谢谢再见❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

Haha I hope they're impressed! I'm glad the video was helpful for you. ☺ 加油！

[@chinchang5117]

Actually, u can just nod your head to say yes and shake your head to say no.

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

哈哈謝謝你 Joseph！🥰

[@GuranPurin]

This has always been one of the easier things to me as an English speaker studying Chinese in that we use "have" and "haven't/have not" the same way, both in questions and in possessing something. Whereas in many other languages, the verb "to have" and the phrase "to have done something" are different words. Very interesting similarity!

[@Easy_chines]

I am feel happy when I learn Chinese ❤❤ 谢谢姐姐🫶🫶❤❤❤❤

[@ImWillyDS]

Great content, love the explanation on how to reply yes/no (close ended) question with inclusion of simplified, traditional, pinyin and even zhuyin (bopomofo) on the explanation. Keep it up on making great content

[@ferganauzb2184]

[@bayramyilmazcoban8603]

Thank you

[@Lin-Carl]

謝謝你的課！ YT 應該有多台灣中文課！ 太多網路的中文課不是台灣的，讓中文很難！ 😢

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

哈哈我會努力多做一些的！

[@heikestoll1205]

Welcome back, Grace😊 Can you make a video about 将? I can’t quite figure out how it’s used, and haven’t seen a video about it.

[@doduodrio]

It's from 將來 which sort of means "in the future." So, 將 sort of means "in the future"

[@danielmarroquin184]

Thanks nice lesson

[@ЕлизаветаМамаева-в7б]

老師， I've noticed in Taiwan a lot of questions are answered with 有 even if the question isn't a 有 / 沒有 type question. I've heard this is related to 臺語 grammar in some way, is this correct?

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

I'm not sure if it's solely related to Taiwanese, but it is likely connected. In Taiwan and southern China, “有” is often used as an auxiliary verb to express completion or experience, so when answering whether we've done something, we often use it:)

[@relaxesmindslepp56]

I Love you really I like you All Video Watech❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@drz1370]

is intresting that we speak like that in purtuguese

[@ゆこ_1]

[@woodies2009]

Haha I still quite often get confused with how to answer questions😂

[@ARN084]

I guessed the first part right because of wrong bot translations ive read trying to understand some sentences before 😂😂

[@RazzleBerry-m9x]

for taiwanese mandarin pronunciation with “no” is it more like pu-si rather than mainland chinese like pu xhi

[@venancefortunat]

What is the television series with the woman holding a gun to her head?

[@Manus_0813]

So cool. But I don’t know why I find it so funny imagining someone saying “want 😐” or “not want 😐”

[@jamescook2412]

So difficult!!! I always wanna say 不 or 对

[@leonard3468]

Why is the part at 5:41 dubbed? At least it looks like it is

[@peterbayne7227]

Not having a simple Yes/No in Mandarin is very confusing for me. I always end up freezing up trying to figure out what word to answer with if asked a question in Mandarin (assuming I even understood the question).

Please try immersive translate if you are having trouble with your Chinese. It has worked for me

[@jakewood5475]

So many ways to reply yes-no questions could be overwhelming for beginners.😅😅😅

[@peaches_123]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6XNe59ug86mqrM Are you the one dubbing for the video on the link above cuz I subscribed ur channel a long time ago and when I clicked on that video to learn some Chinese I felt like there's a resemblance.🤔

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

Haha no it's not me😉

[@potestasetdecus]

It's not a unique practice. In many languages people answer a question by using a verb. Even in English , e.g. "I do" or "I don't"

[@GraceMandarinChinese]

Yeah, in research papers, they call this the "echo answer/echo answer system", which means that people use repetition to answer questions. It appears in other languages as well.

[@jytwang]

But the logic of grammar is still different from Chinese. Do and don’t are not verbs here.

[@potestasetdecus]

@@jytwang Okay... if they are not verbs, then what? :) Please refer yourself to the dictionary prior to do the wrong assertations. And, I'm sorry, but you missed the main idea

[@gustavo8221]

​@@GraceMandarinChinese In portuguese we do that, but we conjugate the verbs examples: Q: can you guys go? / Vocês podem ir? A: we can / podemos Q: will they travel? / eles vão viajar? A: they will / vão

[@zoolity]

Thank you
