JJ Lin’s Tips If You’re Struggling To Learn Mandarin (Or Sing In It) | Talking Point Extra

[@lewislllouis3877]

if you really want to express take a bath you’d say 泡澡

[@chirich572]

Taiwanese here. My understanding of the difference between 沖涼 and 洗澡 is that it's actually more of a matter of regional dialect than actual semantics. You rarely say 沖涼 in Taiwan or Northern China, even if it's a shower v bath. And in Cantonese speaking region, you always say 沖涼，and almost never say 洗澡，whether it be shower or bath.

[@conan2209]

Yea. I don’t agree with his explanation. What you said is what I understood too

[@littlexuen1828]

My Taiwanese friend told me that 洗澡 is bath or shower in details way and it will be clean, but沖涼is just likes get the water on your body （沖）to get feel cool（涼）。 I think it make sense, as in Singapore and Malaysia, the weather is so hot, we need to 沖涼for several of times but in Taiwan, they just 洗澡once in a day before sleep.

[@darren1206]

我確定在台灣很少人用沖涼

[@aegeanagora]

You are spot on, it’s just different way of saying the same thing. Not so much about semantics. E.g 公交、公车、巴士 means the same but the 公交 is used in mainland China, 公车 in Taiwan and 巴士 in Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore.

[@darren1206]

@@aegeanagora 公交跟巴士，在中國我記得巴士是專指長途的，才叫巴士，市區內的叫公交，台灣市區叫公車，跨縣市的應該叫客運(巴士)，當然巴士在台灣也有少部分人持續沿用(現在比較少)，就是台語的巴士Bus，類似日語的讀法，古早人常用，小時候常常聽大人這樣講(因為早期公車是國語的講法，台語則是沿用日語的讀法叫bus)

I grew up in a world of English very much simillar to JJ.

From that time on I emphasize more on listening and speaking mandarin. 10 years on I had achieved the decency level in daily mandarin conversation with the mainland

[@voyzorneeden4453]

In reality, 洗澡 is really the same as 冲凉. In mandarin, most of the Chinese only say 洗澡, because 冲凉 is a word used Cantonese. Some Chinese may also use 洗澡 in mandarin because their mandarin has been influenced by Cantonese, like maybe they also Cantonese speakers. In mandarin, 洗澡 is general concept of taking off all your clothes, and cleaning your whole body. So even if you are going to take a bath, you can sitll say 洗澡，though if you wanna be specific, you can say 泡澡. In Cantonese, it's the same. If you are going to take a bath and you wanna be specific, you can say 浸浴。

[@SLSpencer]

Malaysian origin here. I dont speak mandarin only hokkien as I went to a national school. I spent several years in Singapore building my career but never advanced my mandarin as I could get away with just speaking English. But JJ is right..be encouraging. I remember my first years in Sg my colleague laughed when I tried to say something in mandarin, saying I had a weird Malaysian accent. Needless to say I never attempted it again in front of her and elsewhere

[@vickygwee8405]

I am a S'porean, a hokkien, English educated & love the mandarin language. Continue to speak Mandarin , inevitable to make mistakes while learning. Just need to have thick-skinned, ignore others' judgement of us. We all hv our accent. I am sure the mainland Chinese and taiwanese laugh at us too as our mandarin is not very accurate. But if we do not speak, we do not learn.

My experience is the opposite of those of most Singaporeans. To me, my mother tongue Chinese is, naturally, the easiest of all the languages. I spent much much more time to learn English than Chinese. Chinese is very straight forward and is based on simple logic, while English has been polluted with different European languages (French, Italian, Greek, German, Dutch, etc.) throughout the past centuries that we now find so many different rules, exceptions to the rules (irregulars) and "junks" inside English. 大家来学华语/中文 !

Because the government was really against the broadcast and usage of the real mother tongues of Chinese people like Hokkien, Teochew, Cantonese, Hakka etc. Isn't it ironic that you can hear k-pop on popular radio stations while these "dialects" are restricted to certain channels and timings for very specific purposes only?

[@jjjadedx5700]

true. If one were to spend 10 years learning English & still can’t master it, the reaction would’ve been totally different. I didn’t learn Chinese in school, so my dad hired a tutor to teach me for 6 years & I only got interested in the language when I started listening to mandarin songs. Mandarin is a beautiful language that sadly many Chinese ppl shun. Which is odd because we don’t see the French/Europeans etc being ashamed of their language. also I find that guy in beanie very pretentious.

[@s._3560]

@@jjjadedx5700 Neither are Koreans and Japanese ashamed of speaking or loving their own language and culture! It is v important to master your mother tongue.

​@@jjjadedx5700 "sadly many Chinese ppl shun".You can't blame them. With the crazy amount of anti-China/anti-Chinese propaganda by the Western media and anti-China media news outlets out there. Ofc they (especially the youth) would feel shame and even shun away their own Chinese root and Chinese culture just to feel they are on the "good side" and "right side of history". Just take a look at those Hong Kongers and Taiwanese youth. Growing up surrounded by anti-CCP/anti-China political propaganda influence. Not only did they deny and shun away their own Chinese identities but they are even despising and hating on them.

I originally from china (living there for 16 years) but cannot tell difference between 洗澡 and 冲凉 lol. Personally I use 洗澡 more often and I think 洗澡 is for both bath n shower, 冲凉 is for shower only. More often If bath I say 泡澡 instead. But it doesn’t mean jjlin is wrong cuz different regions have different language speaking practices

[@celestialstar124]

Every culture got their own style. Same bath can be call differently in China, Taiwan, hongkong, Malaysia. Who to judge that Taiwan mandarin is the absolute correct way? Taiwan hokkien is more commonly spoken than their Chinese. Just the type words Taiwan still using traditional Chinese while China already use simple Chinese.

[@mynahlu977]

Depends on which part of Taiwan, the people in the south used to be more conversant in Hokkien, and the people in the north more in Mandarin. But nowadays, the younger ones, even those in the south are speaking more Mandarin. Many young Taiwanese, like we Singaporeans, have lost the ability to speak Hokkien (or other dialects). And the Taiwanese are taking English very seriously now too, you’ll be surprised how many young people are able to speak pretty fluent English.

[@celestialstar124]

@@mynahlu977 young Taiwanese start to speak more Chinese instead of hokkien vs a country where like mainland China where official language is Chinese.. I am not even surprised at the English standards of my Taiwanese friends and relatives. 😂 Don't compare someone who just learn abc with another person who speak English from birth. Not claiming their English or Chinese is horrible but it's not as perfect as you hope it is.

[@The_Art_of_AI_888]

When addressing Mainland China's culture as a "single one", people should not forget 1) China is just as big as Europe. Each of China's provinces is just as big as a size of a country...Most of them have the same root but different Chinese cultures from each other. 2) The Chinese culture in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao, Singapore, and Malaysia or any Chinese community in the world literally came from Mainland China's different parts.

One tip I got from my drama group senior on sounding more 标准 and less Hokkien (no offence) - is to take note of the Chinese words starting with X, J & Q. Eg. 心 （Xin）， 杰(Jie), 情 (Qing). Imagine that there is an invisible “h” in the hanyu pinyin, and try to pronounce them with a little 翘舌. Eg. 心 X(h)in， 杰 J(h)ie, 情 Q(h)in.
