Hi, welcome to ShuoshuoChinese 说说中文; my name is Shuo, I’m a native Chinese teacher living in Bangkok, Thailand, I’ve been teaching Chinese as a foreign language for seven years and I’m also a language learner.
In this channel, I will upload a weekly video, in which I talk about Chinese vocabulary, Chinese grammar, Chinese culture, Chinese stories with pinyin and the English translation for listening practice.
With my channel, you can easily start to learn and understand complicated Chinese grammar, sentence structure, and differences/nuances between similar Chinese words.
If you are a Chinese beginner, I’m planning to upload videos about what Chinese language is, how it differs from English, Chinese pronunciations, Chinese characters and Chinese stroke sequences and a mini Chinese course, (10 minutes per day), which can help you learn quickly and easily. Don’t miss it!
So, subscribe to my channel and start your Chinese learning journey!

This is such a good idea. You discussed the 5 personality traits extravert / introvert, open mindedness, conscientiousness (related to self-discipline), neuroticism (related to the ability to control emotions), and agreeableness.

[@30803080308030803081]

I rather like the 5-factor model. It really helps me think about people. I wish more people would forget about that “other” model of personality types and learn about this one.

[@denverhob]

Ive been just watching pretty much only your videos for the past week and you have some of the best Mandarin language learning content on KZbin, you give great examples, explanations and also give alternatives whilst teaching us not to sound like robots and more so a native

[@adolfokonwongramos9038]

您厉害。这部视频太好了。谢谢!。再见!。慢走!。

我大部分的性格是 ： 内向，主动，爱社交，温柔，独立，自信，善良，成熟，乐观，努力，自律。 我差不多的性格是 ： 保守，思想开放，善羞，幽默，拖延根据什么事，敏感，迁就根据跟什么人。 我很少的性格是： 被动，外向，强势，自私，自恋。

[@shizhenglee4484]

Your Chinese is good.

[@avinnasr7733]

This opens so many platforms to better describe myself as a beginner...thanks Shuo...you're awesome 👌

[@ShuoshuoChinese]

It's time for you to describe your personality using the words you've learned in this video! Tell me about yourself here!

[@WangYi9]

我是一个内向，敏感, 害羞的人。老师，how do I express overthinking, putting pressure on themselves, not asking others for help , worrying about the future ~ these types of personality ?

[@ShuoshuoChinese]

@@WangYi9 你就可以说”敏感“！

[@auberginensalat]

我觉得我也是一个自信的人。根据一个旧同事，我很傲慢的。但是我认为她搞混自信和傲慢了（她认为它因为我说了我不害怕在观众前面说话）。而且我有时候有点儿不耐烦. 但是我不只向其他的人不耐烦，而且甚至向自己不耐烦。最后我也觉得我思想很开放和善良。

我比说说中文保守，但也是一个思想开放的人。我超级内向的。乐观悲观的话，我是平均的。不太迁就别人，不太倔强。我对世界和人类很有好奇新，喜欢科学，爱学新的知识。

[@marcelinsantiago2555]

我是一个内向的人，事实是我不是一个害羞的人只是不想开始谈话，是一个决定！不知撒为什么别人继续想我有题或类似的事啊。

[@nauticoom]

我的名字也是大卫。 I would introduce myself the same way as the start of the video so these are pretty useful tips 😆

[@noobnerdpride]

哇塞, 怎麼認識我們? 我也是工程師 XD 感謝說說交我們新的句子

[@laurelfo6186]

Thank you, nice video, really helpful! I'm Italian and I'm learning Chinese at university at the moment and soon I'll have my first oral test in which I have to describe myself. I was just wondering how to improve my knowledge and not sound like a 5 years old child. Now I'm a bit more aware about how to do it. So thank you again! Great videos anyway! 😊👏

[@cuansmith1349]

Great content👏. I currently live in China and often fall victim to the common basic examples you used initially. I'm definitely gonna learn and use these new phrases. Keep up the great work!! ShuoShuo.

[@DaisalinaForever564]

This was very helpful!! Thank you so much!!😊

[@lballzdurocher]

Great video! Now with 拖延 I can describe myself perfectly. Also in terms of the youtube algorithm, that was a good way to end the video, abrupt to keep retention up and stop people from clicking away before it's over.

[@antoan5495]

You speak both Chinese and English frequently! It is interesting to listen to your says

[@learnurduwithsara1068]

Thank you for this lovely video.

[@Anne-gq8iq]

This video really reminds me the time I learned English 😬😬Thanks!

[@brucemoreno5947]

Hello everybody I'm still studying Chinese and for sure despite the challenges I forsure want to continue studying 中文.

[@sachio8136]

Loved the video ! I started watching around the time when you started youtube (I think) 我觉得不但你有人才，而且很努力的人。幽默超级！我爱你的视频哦：）

[@jssmedialangs]

迁就 sounds like someone who's laid-back and goes with the flow. Though until you gave that example I thought it was someone who's a people pleaser. 😅

[@ted6462]

Thanks! Your videos are great.

[@francesca7014]

Learning so much vocabulary with this video, thank you☺️also love the format

[@matildawolfram4687]

Will you make such a Contest like that agean? ❤

[@cmnt-fi3bh]

Hey Shuoshuo! Thank you for the great videos! Just one thing, why are there no transcriptions in bopomofo? I am trying to be traditional, using the old characters, transcribing with bopomofo and typing vertically! :)

[@nickekotevski9277]

The start was so funny! :)

[@ey69]

i love your energy! thank u for the video

I utterly love you. OK. 我是INTJ建筑师型人格。我是一个年长的白人。 我的中国朋友叫我叔叔。Sorry, but I don't have enough. I'm HSK-2, maybe.

Great lesson! And great contest! I don't use social media but it will be a fun contest for those who do, I am sure. Thanks always!

[@Mathdmd]

I love this video

[@Sara-zi1bw]

I was just waiting for your videos

[@A._J_.]

Nice video insight into the complexity that is Shuo. At the same time, I like the hairstyle at 0:49 and the closeups at 2:09 and 4:53.

[@Philson]

Damn. I studied chinese for like 18 years and still totally suck at it. lol

[@dakotaxu4792]

This is a great video! FINALLY a very creative way to introduce yourself! I’m going to study this video completely

[@lorenam8028]

4:26 Shouldn't it be 满 instead of 蛮？Or is it slang?

[@tososhin]

Can one say 我是一个传统的人 if one wants to say they are traditional?

[@herryhou7040]

我想成为一个乐观的人 🙏

[@Voicist]

This is an excellent video, very valuable content. 请问，为什么 “我很开放” 这个句子会导致误会呢？

[@jznn8218]

我很开放 literally means "I am an open person", but when you say this seriously to a guy esp if you are a girl, it's like saying "I am an easy girl, please sleep with me" lol.

[@Voicist]

@@jznn8218 Ohhhh! Okay, definitely need to be careful with that word. Thank you!

[@elizangelatsai231]

很好！词的新。

[@RubenCastillaSanchez]

Wonderful

[@30803080308030803081]

In English, one can be open-minded and conservative. So, using 思想开放 as a contrary of 保守 does seem a little wrong. While in China, I did learn that 保守 is used in a very derogating way by some big-city people to describe provincial people they look down on. I didn’t like that. Anyway, it’s off-topic.

[@andia968]

Where is your jiaxiang?

[@pigeongaming8160]

I'm trying to look at your switch your brain into Chinese mode course on Teachable but currently it says it's closed for enrollment is there any reason for this?

[@andydidyouhear]

I don't think 强势 should be translated as aggressive. It's more like assertive or intense. Feel free to discuss.

[@dohartampubolon5203]

Does 保守的人 refer at all to politics, or more just conservative personality?

[@30803080308030803081]

It’s mostly about conservative personality/lifestyle.
