Eight Common Mistakes That Drive Your Chinese Teacher CRAZY - Chinese grammar for beginners

[@ShuoshuoChinese]

Answers for the exercises (These are not the only correct answers, there are many other correct answers as well) Exercise one 1. 他问我会不会做饭。 2. 没有人知道这个决定是不是对的。 3. 不管你喜欢不喜欢，你都必须做完作业。 4. 结果取决于你有没有用对的方法。 5. 我不知道他说的对不对。 Exercise two 1. 你收到过最特别的礼物是什么？ 2. 我找到了一个很好的学习中文的方法。 3. 我想去一个有海的城市住。 4. 她去来了我住过五年的地方。 5. 他可以像周围没有人一样地跳舞。

真棒的课程！谢谢！ Yes, yao 要 is always badly taught I have never seen one single good introductory lecture on the various uses of 要！ 要 so often means "will" or "must" that "want"... I would Only learn it as 想要 = would like, want. Just on it's own you really don't know what that yao means. Likewise 需要 = need require. Just yao alone can mean “intend to”, “to be obligated to” (whether by society or natural forces), or “want”, but to avoid ambiguity use xiangyao （would like) or xuyao (need), which is also somewhat more polite. For future tense I presume we can just add a time modifier 明天我要去美国？ I think it's better to use hui 会 for the future "will" since even with a time colocation yao could mean "must" rather than "will", right? Because my grammar acquisition style is passive by implication through constant repetition please please when doing "error analysis" don't orally produce the example of the common error. That reinforces the wrong lesson. Instead start to say something correct then do a big ol' buzz sound with the hanzi showing the error: by splitting the error into an oral and hanzi part you preven acquisition of the wrong form while teaching useful vocabulary. daodi literally means "to get to the bottom of" (something); this co-location in English is really the same exact thing. 到底 though of course a better translation depending on context might be "in the final analysis"

Thank you so much my teacher 🤝

[@pseto3883]

I love how knowledgeable & precise you are. Thanks so much :)

[@AtlantaBill]

Shuoshuo, you're a terrific Mandarin-teacher, and your English is usually very good. However, 'whether if' is not English, regardless of how many times native speakers use it. You're right to say that 'if' is a conditional (actually a conditional conjunction). From the point at which you ask your question using 'if' and giving a condition (or a set of conditions), there's an imaginary junction leading off into any number of possible alternatives. If A, then B or C or D or .... Either the person stating the condition or the respondent (the person expected to respond) to a question in which the speaker states the condition knows what the answer is (but not both speaker and respondent). "If you'll join me for dinner, I'll enjoy your company," of "I'll enjoy your company if you'll join me for dinner." "if it's not too late to ask, will you join me for dinner?" 'Whether' is an interrogative conjunction, but it still involves a condition. However, the condition or set of conditions is known only to the respondent (the one expected to respond) or an imaginary respondent who could be anyone. "I'd like to ask you whether you'll join me for dinner." "May I ask whether you'll join me for dinner?" Actually, this last one is a polite way of saying, "Tell me whether...." "I'd like to know whether the restaurant is still open," (assuming that someone knows). "I can't decide whether to have dinner at home." If I could decide (by knowing all the factors that conditioned it), I wouldn't be asking the question. Etymology isn't always definitive (perfectly suitable) for determining the meaning of a word, but in this case it might be helpful. In Old English the word was pronounce the same but spelled 'hwæþer'. You can see the Modern English word 'where' in the word 'hwǣr', which is where the 'hwæ-' comes from (it was too awkward to say 'hwærþer'). 'Where' ('hwǣr') points to alternative places, and it could have pointed to alternative paths or options in Old English as it sometimes does today. "The answer is 10 divided by x, where x is any integer not equal to zero." In Old English, 'hwæþer' could also be a pronoun meaning "one of two", and in that case the 'hwæ-' is probably from 'hwæt', which is now our pronoun 'what' when it's not used as an interrogative (question word), as in "I see what it is," (meaning, "I see it is what.") 'The '-þer' ending is spelled '-ther' in Modern English and indicates a comparison between two things. "Would you like this one or another (an other)?" "My car is fast but yours is faster." "That restaurant is far from here but the other is farther away." This ending probably came about because English once had not only a singular and a plural, but a dual number as well. When you use 'whether' you're comparing two options and wanting to know which of the two is correct.

[@xXJ4FARGAMERXx]

I really like how you say the words in chinese.. it makes may confusions go away in saying the words right

[@tososhin]

Can you do a video on 如果，要是，假如， and 即使, and when to use each one for "if."

[@mountaintag]

I think that 如果 and 要是 both mean "if". But these words cannot be used in the sense of "whether". The word 假如 means "if", in the sense of "supposing". For example: 假如他给你钱, 你会接受吗？"If/supposing he gave you money, would you accept it?" The word 即使 doesn't mean "if". It means "even if". For example: 即使他给我钱, 我也不会接受. "Even if he gave me money, I would not accept it." ( I used to think that "even if" was 甚至如果 :-)

I think another way Chinese often express “if” is by using 要是 like “你要是有空的话” for “if you have some free time” maybe that’s more common than “如果你有空” in spoken conversation?

[@goodforever5662]

They are more or less the same in certain circumstances E.g. the one you listed in your comment However “要是” can also imply someone regrets something, and express stronger feelings, for example : 要是我有去參加就好了 (If only I participated that event) (regrets his/her decision) Native speakers may also say that 要是 also gives a sense of “blame” to the receiver. Hope it helps. Love from Hong Kong🇭🇰

[@lystic9392]

I haven't watched your video on effect words yet. The way I translated 都 in my mind, is it kind of specifies a set (of things, of people, of weeks, etc.). Your example of 'We don't want...' vs 'None of us want...' helped me a lot. I also notice the weird thing with 要 in the app I use. It often didn't mean to want. So in my mind I made it more into a word to describe that something requires something, or needs something. But not in such a strong way as in English, more in a technical way. Or in-between a want and need. So the item costs this much. It requires/asks for this much to be bought. I am traveling to America. I need-want to go there. I am going there. Or at a restaurant, I am a customer who wants/needs a cup of coffee.

5:03 hahahahaha! "Knock on wood," is what some actually say. Perhaps it's related to 木星, or some other concept....

[@jameskennedy7093]

I didn’t know 恐怕，but that makes sense. We have a phrase like this. “I’m afraid it’s going to rain today, so we’re not going to the park.” I guess we do use the same word (“afraid”) as we’d use for literally being fearful of something, so in that sense it’s different, but this usage is one English speakers should understand is different. In German there’s thing like this. English says “sorry” to mean multiple things. “My mother just died.” “Oh, I’m sorry.” “Well, it’s not your fault.” “Yes, but I’m sorry it happened.” In German they have Es tut mir leid, which means “it pains me” and Entschultelgung, which means something closer to “excuse/forgive me”. But even though English speakers only use sorry to cover both of these in most situations, the mental concept exists or else you wouldn’t say something like, “It’s not your fault my mother died” and “Yes, I know but I’m sorry it happened.” 我恐怕有的多难字！

Great video as always! 谢谢 Can you make a video about the difference between 别 and 不要?

I think that the character 别 is used just to represent the contracted way of saying 不要. Similarly, in English, we have "don't" vs. "do not". When the character 别 is not used this way, it means "other". For example: 别人 means "other people".

[@johnmofula]

Shortest answer I know is: 别 is more of a suggestion while 不要 sounds more commanding.

"我要饭"除了i want some rice的意思以外，还有i beg的意思。 所以当你want some rice的时候，要说"我想要一些饭"。。。。。。。。。不然别人会以为你在beg.............

1. 他问我我是否能做饭。 2. 没有人知道这个决定是不是正确的。 3. 无论你喜欢不喜欢它，你的作业还没弄完了。 4.结果靠你用不用正确的方法。 5. 我不知道她说得话是对不对的。

Is it correct to use 发消息 to mean send a message?

Send a message like chat? I think it's 发信息
