How to say "Sorry" in Chinese | How To Say Series | ChinesePod

[@andorbodnar8606]

It seems like she is really saying 'sorry' to somebody. She says it with so much emotion at the end...her voice is very melodic and pleasing to the ear

[@ChinesePodTV]

Thanks for your positive feedback Andor! Shirley was aiming to say it in a realistic tone so that's great to hear.

[@susannaallmeroth5006]

I never thought about the meaning of 对不起, it just never crossed my mind. It's fun to hear about it this way. Thanks for the video.

[@ChinesePodTV]

Glad we could help!

[@terrygyatso3928]

Thank you for the commentary on what it means. That extra bit of understanding you give can create a lot more insight into the words.

[@-nf9vt]

Immersive translate is great. It helped me learn my vocabulary better. It is a great app for that too

[@azziebean4773]

@@ChinesePodTV I live in Shanghai now. Do you have a center there ?

[@TrangDB9]

Keep making them please. Saying "don't stop" has a negative word (don't) and a word of the opposite you're asking for (stop). Just a thought 😉

Very nice explanation! so what's the meaning of "对得起“

[@antonde7121]

[@simplysiano891]

Is there a video of the usage of 票票亮亮 using reduplicated measures or stative verbs eg. 這本本書都很貴

[@jimanHK]

Shirley rocks !

[@gavinwright7300]

Would this be appropriate for "sorry I'm late?"

[@jiayichen1709]

Can I also use 对不起 to express excuses me?

[@Endrance88]

the sylable at the end, is it said with a hard CH, or is that TCH sound that's like a cross between a t sound and a ch sound?

[@atiffromchinespodteam]

if you listen it carefully you can easily differentiate ch and q. they sounds alike but but when to listen them you can easily differentiate them.

[@郑桂珠-s2d]

This video is really short, but the content is fine.

[@ChinesePodTV]

hey there, the reason it's short is because we're trying to teach a key phrase.

[@Henry-teach-Chinese-in-jokes]

I’ve spent about 100,000 hours studying English humor and Western culture, and about 100,000 hours studying Chinese culture. My native language is Chinese. I teach Chinese language with humor and cute pictures. Hope you can recommend my videos to those who want to learn Chinese.

[@junpu2179]

[@sampatha6994]

dui bu qi miss how to say your looking beautiful ?

[@lilylin5763]

What about 抱歉?

[@ChinesePodTV]

Hey Lily, thanks for sharing another way to apologise! For those that haven't seen this word before, 抱歉 bàoqiàn is a more formal way to say sorry, and is used less commonly than 对不起。

[@deolsingnarzary3788]

Hello Mam I'm India please help me Chinese food

[@ColinPlayzPianoC418Music]

What about 不好意思

[@ChinesePodTV]

Thanks for sharing another way to say sorry Colin! 不好意思 is more for minor things, for example if you bump into someone. 对不起 is for more serious matters for example if you lose someone's phone.

[@ColinPlayzPianoC418Music]

Yeah that’s what I thought thanks for clarifying

[@ChinesePodTV]

@@ColinPlayzPianoC418Music No problem! 学习愉快！

[@GodKerry]

Infact, 对不起 is a fixed phrase, so it is unnecessary to separate it word by word

Yes, I am :) Italia, pizza e mandolino (Italy, pizza and mandolin). Do you like Pinocchio?

[@laoziagainstthemachine5323]

The most studied Italian novel is "I Promessi Sposi" (The Betrothed) . The most famous Italian novel is Pinocchio :) Many , many years ago I read a Chinese novel , The Dream of the Red Chamber. I loved that book.
