  2. 0:06chinese this is hsk level 1 course and i
  3. 0:10am your teacher ronnie today we are
  4. 0:13going to learn lesson one
  5. 0:19which means hello
  6. 0:21hello
  7. 0:22so before we learn to write chinese
  8. 0:25characters first we are going to learn
  9. 0:27how to read it read that's why we are
  10. 0:31going to learn p in first p
  11. 0:34so what is pinging why should we learn p
  12. 0:37in first
  13. 0:39as we can see here is the topic of
  14. 0:42today's lesson nihao
  15. 0:45and above it we can see
  16. 0:47there are something like english with
  17. 0:49some marks on it that is pin in chinese
  18. 0:53spin in simply speaking pin in is the
  19. 0:56pronunciation of chinese characters
  20. 1:00and why should we use that why can't we
  21. 1:02just get the pronunciation from the
  22. 1:05characters itself just like english
  23. 1:08because chinese is not phonetic language
  24. 1:11like english or french
  25. 1:14chinese is ideographic language
  26. 1:18for example when i give you any strange
  27. 1:22unfamiliar words in english even though
  28. 1:26you are not familiar with it you don't
  29. 1:28know the meaning of it you can still
  30. 1:30read it because you've learned the
  31. 1:32alphabetic alphabet of this language but
  32. 1:35chinese is not it doesn't work that way
  33. 1:39even though you can know the meaning of
  34. 1:41the particles of chinese characters you
  35. 1:44still can get the pronunciation of it
  36. 1:47because every particle of chinese
  37. 1:50characters doesn't indicate the
  38. 1:52pronunciation of it that's why we need
  39. 1:55pn to help us to pronounce chinese
  40. 1:58characters

  257. 13:18chinese
  258. 13:19we have four
  259. 13:21four basic tones for chinese
  260. 13:24and if i use ma as an example then the
  261. 13:27photon is
  262. 13:29ma
  263. 13:31ma

  271. 13:57five lines in each
  272. 13:59pin in there are five lines here which
  273. 14:01means five pitches five pitches from the
  274. 14:06first one first pitch to fifth from the
  275. 14:09lowest to the highest okay

  296. 15:07the pitch is rising up rising up from
  297. 15:11three to five ma
  298. 15:14ma
  299. 15:15this is second tone
  300. 15:18now let's see the tone third tone which

  393. 20:06and last one boston
  394. 20:11very good excellent
  395. 20:13now we've seen
  396. 20:15how to
  397. 20:16read
  398. 20:17our tones
  399. 20:19and now we are going to learn chinese
  400. 20:22syllables chinese syllables we've
  401. 20:24already already learned three basic
  402. 20:27parts of pin which is initials finals
  403. 20:31and tones on it and if we put these
  404. 20:35three parts together then we can get a
  405. 20:37servo but sometimes a servo can be there
  406. 20:40without a initial but must be
  407. 20:44a final and a tone okay final undertone
  408. 20:49so now let's see some examples first
  409. 20:52what makes the chinese syllable first
  410. 20:55one is mao
  411. 20:57mao
  412. 20:58okay mao here
  413. 21:00let's see mao is the first tone word mao
  414. 21:05and it is combined by
  415. 21:08more initial and ao the final
  416. 21:13mao and the tone is the first tone mao
  417. 21:17mao which means cat
  418. 21:19cat
  419. 21:21now second one is
  420. 21:24we can see
  421. 21:26the initial part is empty here empty
  422. 21:29here which means it doesn't have a
  423. 21:31initial but some students might be a
  424. 21:33little bit confused because here is that
  425. 21:36initial for it which is
  426. 21:38y in
  427. 21:40english and
  428. 21:42it is pronounced as e in chinese so
  429. 21:46let's see here
  430. 21:48here the note here
  431. 21:49when
  432. 21:50e and u
  433. 21:52acts as n syllable by itself
  434. 21:56when e and u
  435. 21:58acts as an syllable by itself
  436. 22:00e is added before it this one is added
  437. 22:04before it this one
  438. 22:06and without two thoughts of we
  439. 22:10remove
  440. 22:12which means we will remove
  441. 22:15these two dots and just write it like
  442. 22:18this
  443. 22:19just write it like this
  444. 22:21and
  445. 22:22it's it looks just like all right so
  446. 22:26when
  447. 22:27what should we do when the final is
  448. 22:33itself
  449. 22:34accessing syllable
  450. 22:36then we should put
  451. 22:38this
  452. 22:39initial you pay for it okay
  453. 22:42this one
  454. 22:44is
  455. 22:46okay
  456. 22:48now let's focus on
  457. 22:52okay
  458. 22:52so this is
  459. 22:56and the tone is second tone which is
  460. 23:04means fish
  461. 23:06fish

  757. 39:21this is a pronoun too it means you but
  758. 39:24in a respectable way
  759. 39:27to say you so this one mean is always
  760. 39:31used when you are talking to a
  761. 39:35person you respect or someone older than
  762. 39:39you much older than you then you can use
  763. 39:42mean
  764. 39:43mean it is better than me
  765. 39:47okay this is mean
  766. 39:49next one
  767. 39:53two characters
  768. 39:55first one is me
  769. 39:57we all know that means you and this one
  770. 40:00is
  771. 40:01we can see there is no two mark on this
  772. 40:05which means this is a neutral tone
  773. 40:08neutral tone so for the neutral tone
  774. 40:11we should read these neutrogen soft and
  775. 40:15quick we shouldn't read it as
  776. 40:17man we should read it as
  777. 40:21okay
  778. 40:22so read up to me please
  779. 40:29means you but plural plural and only
  780. 40:35means you but singular right singular so
  781. 40:38meema plural me
  782. 40:41singular
  783. 40:42okay niman and mean now let's move on to
  784. 40:46our text i will read it once for you
  785. 40:49please pay attention to the
  786. 40:50pronunciations okay
  787. 40:53he said
  788. 40:55min hao
  789. 40:57b said
  790. 40:59nima
  791. 41:02okay let's see first min how in here we
  792. 41:06can see the
  793. 41:07polite view right mean is the
  794. 41:10respectable way to say you mean how and
  795. 41:14we can see in this picture there are
  796. 41:16three people and one
  797. 41:18purpose and one is an old man old man we
  798. 41:23can see his hair is white
  799. 41:25so guess who said min how to who
  800. 41:30i believe the couple said mean how to
  801. 41:33this old man right because he is older
  802. 41:35than them
  803. 41:37to show the respect they use
  804. 41:42so when you are greeting your
  805. 41:45your teacher or someone who is much
  806. 41:47older than you you can use min hao
  807. 41:50instead of me
  808. 41:52okay
  809. 41:53and be answered
  810. 41:58because this old man is facing two
  811. 42:01people more than one more than one
  812. 42:04person that's why he used the plural
  813. 42:08form of me
  814. 42:10used me
  815. 42:14okay this is

  829. 42:51and let's separate the pin into three
  830. 42:54first one is do away do it the initial
  831. 42:59is two and uh final is y and tone is the
  832. 43:03first term so two way
  833. 43:08and the second character is the neutral
  834. 43:11tone we cannot see a tone mark here so
  835. 43:13it is a neutron so we should pronounce
  836. 43:16it soft and quick soft and quick so it
  837. 43:19is
  838. 43:21the next one is
  839. 43:23t
  840. 43:24initial is t and the final is e and the
  841. 43:26tone is third tone so t
