Thanks for your content! Really appreciate the great work. I'm going to China on monday to continue my bachelor's in Chinese and I'm super excited!

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

Thank you for your support and have fun in China!

[@Squeez210]

Your videos are the best there are. So time efficient!

[@jinlee181]

the thing about these videos unlike, textbooks, is that they are more usable, once you go through the lesson once, twice, three times, maybe its the video format - the ability to read out loud, to pause, to go back and repeat a segment, but it also has alot to do with the instructor

[@aviibes7316]

really helpful thank you so much for making these videos

你好，谢谢，I hope if you explain to us more vocabulary about business and marketing it's important for many people, 😊😊thanks thanks,

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

Thank you, unfortunately, the purpose of this channel is not to introduce vocabulary. I intend to focus on grammar and the issues using function words mainly. Sorry.

[@alien8861]

@@ChineseGrammarSimplified thanks a lot, grammar is very important, keep moving, I'm happy to see your reply 😊...

I wish I was in the twin cities man. I live in Singapore and nowhere teaches Chinese this well here...

Great video,thanks so much! Could you kindly do a video on 意思，I heard there are many meanings in different usages. 👍🙏🏼😀

[@DaisalinaForever564]

Thank you so much! I learned a lot. But I’m wondering why 平常 was in the video and not 一般, since I was taught that 一般 means “normally”. Is there a difference between them? 感谢你！😊

[@cuteworld1637]

Wow, thanks for this second video.

Thanks

[@Kirill-b6e2o]

Hey, first off, thanks for the video, absolutely brilliant explanation. But also I’m but confused why at 1:29 平常 is used instead of 平时。I was taught that 平时 refers to time and place, while 平常 refers to people/objects etc. Could you please clear this up for me? Also, what’s up with 通常? I’d be extremely thankful.

[@qianfeizhou8265]

Hi, there, thank you for your question, as far as I understand, in this case, 平时 and 平常 are interchangeable, but you can see they are slightly different in meaning, 平常 means normally as is stated in the video, and 平时 means at ordinary time or as usual. Hope my explanation helps.

[@Kirill-b6e2o]

@@qianfeizhou8265 谢谢🙏

[@qianfeizhou8265]

In Chinese, 平 means physically flat, therefore, it could also conceptually express fixed/constant and ordinary, 时 means time, so when we combine them together, this word has the meaning of at most of the ordinary time, i.e. as usual. On the other hand, 常 means long lasting or always, so 平常 means usually or normally, Hope this kind of explanation could broaden your understanding of these similar words.

[@Aprendiz07]

great video!

[@impexhubtradingcompany4245]

highly useful.

[@mcb4067]

Are both these grammatically correct and sound natural? I thought 才 always a negative connotation, so我给他说明他才理解 has a sense of frustration - with the same meaning as 我只有给他说明他才理解。Is this correct? In comparison does the following both mean he understood it very quickly? 我只要给他说明他就理解 我给他说明他就理解

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

You can find the answers to your question from my 只 video and 才 video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jIHRk31vfcyqb8U&ab_channel=TwinCitiesChineseTutor kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHWknpxnisR4hqM&ab_channel=TwinCitiesChineseTutor In short, 才 in the example you wrote means "finally", which indicates "later than expected."

[@SabrinaSchonfeld]

Your videos are amazing. If it's possible, can you make a video explaining about the universe of "了"? Because I know it has many usages besides of complete action and state. Please!

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

Yes, that is a big one, I will look into it after I finish with 就.

[@SabrinaSchonfeld]

Earliness .........hadn't seen this word in English before and kept racking my brains as how 就 is related to hearing.

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

I'm not sure if I understand you fully, would you please clarify what you're asking?

@@ChineseGrammarSimplified l've spoken English for near on 75 years and read for less and had not seen 'nor heard the word .....earliness......When I first saw it I associated with hearing.......ear....liness.....but will, from now on.... use it.

1. Wo xihuan ni hen jiu le 2. Wo zao jiu xihuan ni le Are both grammatically correct? Are both having same definition?

[@qianfeizhou8265]

Yes, you are right, they are both grammatically correct. And they express almost the same matter of fact. But the difference is their emphasis on different point. The first one emphasizes the duration of how long I like you, the second one emphasizes the particular point of when I started to like you.

[@asmaazahari2989]

@@qianfeizhou8265 我明白。 谢谢你 ☺️☺️

[@taylormietzner3348]

谢谢。 我研究了一周的中文了。 ^ can someone tell me if that made sense. That was the first sentence I have ever typed in Chinese :D

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

That's correct. But 研究 is “to study" as researching. Maybe what you wanted to say is 我学了一周的中文了。

I wonder if 早就知道...的话 can be used when "crying into spilled milk". For example: 我早就知道中文这么难学的话，那不会试图学好这门语言。

[@ChineseGrammarSimplified]

We usually would say “早知道……的话"　instead of 早就知道...的话

SORRY TO BE A STICK IN THE MUD BUT AT 4:27 SAYING I HAVE BEEN TO AUSTRALIA LONG AGO IS WRONG IN ENGLISH. WE CAN'T USE THE PRESENT PERFECT WITH A SPECIFIC TIME. YOU CAN SAY I WENT TO AUSTRALIA LONG AGO OR I HAVE BEEN TO AUSTRALIA MANY TIMES BUT YOU CANNOT MIX BOTH. Please ignore the caps I don't know how they got there.
