LEARNING CHINESE WITH C-DRAMAS

[@NataliaGarza]

"what do I do with my notes? -- NOTHING" ahahahaha a mood

[@danai5985]

🤣🤣🤣 I actually thought of you when I said that, like “this must be why Natalia doesn’t take notes” hahahah

[@mr.songswife3253]

It's Natalia 👁👄👁

[@tedcrowley6080]

Some people claim that the action of writing down notes helps you remember, even if you never review the notes later. They said it, not me. No expert here. Just some guy...

[@abiclarke362]

Proceeds to abandon my uni assessments to commit all my time to watching c-dramas for 'educational purposes'

[@danai5985]

LOL I’m glad I’m being a good influence 😂😂

[@NataliaGarza]

I like the way you write you're character~ yo handwriting looks sooooo flow-y haha

[@danai5985]

Hahaha I think that about your Korean! So fluent looking!

[@martham268]

Hii, I’m studying Korean and when I study with dramas, I usually focus on vocab and learning it in context, so I write down phrases and words. Then I’ll put it all in Memerise. I have a separate study set for k-dramas/webtoons. Loved ur video!

[@danai5985]

Ooh I’ll try that!! I don’t normally transfer them to a flashcards app but I should probably start that so I can actually learn them 🤣 thank you!! 💕💕

[@LykaLivao-l5w]

I love how you develop your characters! Learning Chinese through C-dramas has never been this fun. Thank you for the great tips!

[@strawblondiestudies]

Your energy is infectious I could watch your videos all day 😍

[@danai5985]

Ahh I’m blushing 🥰🥰 I’m LOVING yours dude such good advice!!

[@littlejunschinese]

Great video!!! I love your notes even if you do nothing with them LOL! 10:33 李现 is mentioned haha! Looking forward to Danai's next vid :D

[@danai5985]

Junjun!! Hahaha I will have to do something with them though so I can learnt them! 🤣 yess 李现！很帅😍😍 I’m looking forward to yours too!

[@NataliaGarza]

I'm loving your energy in this video haha

[@danai5985]

It’s what happens when I try film and edit everything in the space of 12h and am internally panicking 😂😂😂

[@leeknowscat1625]

I am not learning Chinese but I am addicted to c dramas and I learn a little bit of Chinese from c dramas, also I already watched a love so beautiful

[@danai5985]

Hahaha that’s so cool! They’re a great way to pick up bits of the language!

[@strawblondiestudies]

*adds all your recommendations to my watch list*

[@danai5985]

😂😂 I do that every time you mention a manga hahaha

[@zi_shu]

A Love So Beautiful is definitely my favorite drama of all time along with this historical romcom The Romance of Tiger and Rose. Other contemporary cdramas that I loved are Lovely Us and Run For Young (but I don’t think this one has readily available subtitles :( )

[@danai5985]

Ahhh I just saw your comment! I’ll check out those ones too then! :D always looking for recommendations! I forgot to mention it but I really like Put Your Head on my Shoulder too!

[@anthonychua3209]

KZbin has tons of free CDramas like in Mango TV, Youku and other channels

[@simon_kabuki]

Learning through dramatization is exciting and effective method of learning, I love it! Thanks for sharing about this. I've been learning Spanish on Duolingo app and website, I have desires to learn Chinese too and of course I will consider applying C dramas.

[@daya-lu]

tientsin mystic is so good!! so glad to see it recommended

[@adri144n]

To learn from immersion/tv shows, I think the most used method is making digital flashcards from them. So you can have audio or video on the front and the written subtitle/translation on the back. (Or however you want of course :) )

[@danai5985]

Ohhh that’s a cool idea!! How would you get the video on one side? Is that something you’d do with Anki? I’ll give this a shot!! 🙏

[@adri144n]

@@danai5985 Not too sure, I don't use flashcards actually (i'm not the most regular learner so SRS doesn't really go well for me :p ) From what i could google ("sentence mining"), I found that you can put audio + screenshot on the front in Anki and to automatically generate such cards you can use subs2srs or substudy. :)

[@danai5985]

@@adri144n got it! Thank you so much! 😭

[@tedcrowley6080]

I don't have Netflix yet, but its learning features sound very useful. I watch C-drama series on KZbin. I pick ones where I can have both Mandarin and English sub-titles (which might overlap). Favorites series: (modern) Be Yourself; Walk Into Your Memory; GO into your Heart; I don't Want to be Friends With You; (Historic) The Imperial Coroner; Female Student in Imperial College; Nothing Gold can Stay.

[@yoongsitos9133]

we love an energetic girl!! i loved the vibes you give off and your video!!

[@danai5985]

Haha thank you!! I was pretty hyped for this one! 😂

[@teshuverma8562]

I started learning Hangul 2 years ago learned basics and basic words then i just watched kdramas and i think now i pretty much understand korean expect some words not used often.

[@Tania_shine_bright]

Was looking for new dramas ! What a chance 😻😻😻

[@danai5985]

Woooo! Hope you enjoy! 😆😆

[@Suhailsuhii583]

I love your confidence ❤❤😊😊

3:43 : Hi Danai 👋🏻 Does this LLN works with phones 📱 or tablet computer ?? Thanks 😊

[@danai5985]

I don't think you can use it on your phone! :( I have an Apple phone too so use safari on that but I had a google and people say you can't :( I'm not sure about tablets though, it sounds like you should be able to as long s you're using Chrome, that's the main thing!

[@sunnyyy______]

@@danai5985 oh, thank you very much !! ☺️☺️ good luck on your studies !! 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻

[@anonumeente5493]

Arsenal Military Academy is soo good, it has to be one of my all time favourites! And it's with Lu Bai and Xu Kai, they are so good together

[@achernev]

Awesome tips and energy thanks !

[@danai5985]

Thank you!! 😆

[@abigailfriedman]

How did you learn to write chinese

[@jasminedubois6711]

I admit. I don't watch a lot of C-drama's and it's not because I don't like them, rather I don't have a lot of time to watch them. I would love to devote some time to them, and I will someday.

[@ALGMandarin]

Yes. They are interesting.

[@parksevil6225]

Thank u so much this is really useful

[@Miaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Thank you soo much for there tips 💗 . I’m definitely going to try writing down phrases aswell. I also find most Romance cdrama’s soo cringe 😭😭 . I find it soo hard to watch them . I’ll definitely give the longest day in chang’an a try.

[@pinkpeony8547]

Very useful! Thanks a lot

[@danai5985]

I’m glad!! Thanks!! 🥰

[@leeknowyouknowweknowshekno9548]

I have viki but i do not know use learn mode:((

[@danai5985]

Not every series has it but the popular ones do! If they do have it then you just add it via the settings like I did in the video :)

[@ALGMandarin]

Netflix has a lot of C-drama, made in Taiwan.

[@luvmy2day551]

Ps : iQIYI is pronounced as the literally i not the sound of ‘e’. Tysm for your videos! what’s shows do you watch now?
