Top radicals in Chinese (Pianpang) - the making of characters (Chinese basics S1 EP6)

Pianpang (known as radical), is important in the making of complicated characters. They come from simple characters, they play parts and components in other characters, they provide hints for meanings. Through 6 frequently seen Pianpang, you will see not only how it works, but also many interesting characters which might inspire you. At the end you will see me writing Chinese characters, stroke by stroke.
---------------------------------
Anything related to Chinese, you ever knew or heard of, could help you learn the language. This program gives lot of such hints to make it easier (and hopefully fun as well). Let`s use our wildest imagination. Let`s bring all possible connections. Let`s not limit ourselves in language learning (and pretty much in anything).

Discovering your channel is one of the best things that have happened to me this month. Thank you so much for your efforts, you are AMAZING 💚💚💚

[@Queen中文]

I'm so excited about your passion in the language and thankful for your kind words that will definitely motivate me to carry on!

I agree ,I feel less overwhelmed by the mountain of characters to learn as I would like to be able to also read chinese . I bought 3 body problem book series as a goal to read some day .

Thank you for the explanaitions!

[@DiarioJagiya123]

If you have this channel in 2022 my learning had been more easy, really very clear vídeo ❤

[@Queen中文]

Thanks for saying so! You started in 2020? Directly with the characters?

[@DiarioJagiya123]

@@Queen中文 I started to learn Chinese with videos in youtube in 2022. I took long time to try to understand how is the logic of the chinese characters. I didn't know how to start in that moment. Now, I am living in China and I try to practice every day what I know now, about speaking and listening. Really your video is very useful for everybody. Exactly the point the beginner wants to know.

[@DiarioJagiya123]

I have watched many, many KZbin channels to understand the logic of the Chinese language and I think that the way he creates his videos helps people a lot.

[@Queen中文]

Hi Diario, thanks a lot for the details about your learning journey. I hope you have a great time in China? Happy to know that beginners like you also care so much about the characters because many apps and materials are pinyin based, somehow I thought people give up learning characters due to its complication.

[@Queen中文]

He?😉

[@GardenNHS]

I'm just a total beginner. Please do many more. Also some for the chinese strokes please? Thank you so much for your work, time and teaching.

[@Queen中文]

Hi I had written at the end of most episodes some characters stroke by stroke. I myself practiced calligraphy for some years and I love to introduce somewhen in the future.

[@learnchineseandentertainme9167]

Please help me to learn

[@louisemichelle1428]

Thanks. but could we have only person talking. It's confusing. Specialy with the different accents.谢谢😊

[@Queen中文]

Thanks for watching! I agree with what you say! For videos in season 1 I recorded audio for the part of massive visual aids. From season 2 I do videos the whole time.

[@k.p.8955]

I bought a book to write Chinese characters. I started using pencil to write them but it doesn't look nice and artistic the way you write. Do people use pencil to write Chinese characters too?

[@Queen中文]

Hi! We use everything to write, and especially pencils at the beginning too cause it's easy to erase! Don't you worry! No native that I know started with perfection! All writings were ugly once! But at school we trained so hard to get it beautiful (it was a long tradition from my region that one must write elegant). In EP23 my other video, an introduction to writing maybe you can watch if interested. Cheers!

[@k.p.8955]

@@Queen中文 ok. Thank you

[@vc9105]

Very helpful. But when you are video recording yourself you need a mic close to you. Don't use the mic on the camera. It's too far away.

[@Queen中文]

Thanks for the tip! In progress of better set up and hopefully improve for the next.

[@GardenNHS]

Sorry, but frustrated because my brain just went empty after 10.

[@Queen中文]

This episode is very intensive regarding the amount of characters. I meant to introduce just the main types of structure and the concept of radical. For that I used a lot of characters from previous episodes as examples. Sorry for the frustration but really that's not the goal of this episode! Thanks for your feedback! All the best!
