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

- 13:15tone is very outstanding feature of
- 13:18chinese
- 13:19we have four
- 13:21four basic tones for chinese
- 13:24and if i use ma as an example then the
- 13:27photon is
- 13:29ma
- 13:31ma
- 13:32ma
- 13:35these four tones okay these four tones
- 13:39and as you can see here are four

- 13:53let me see first we can see here are
- 13:57five lines in each
- 13:59pin in there are five lines here which
- 14:01means five pitches five pitches from the
- 14:06first one first pitch to fifth from the
- 14:09lowest to the highest okay
- 14:12so first let's see the first tone first
- 14:15tone
- 14:16ma
- 14:17we can see it started from
- 14:20page five the highest page page five and
- 14:24it ended at page five two so it is a
- 14:29level flat sound
- 14:31ma
- 14:32always on the highest page ma

- 14:46it started at page three page three and
- 14:50it ended at page five from
- 14:54ma
- 14:55to from
- 14:58so we should change the pitch right when
- 15:01we read it so it is
- 15:07the pitch is rising up rising up from
- 15:11three to five ma
- 15:14ma
- 15:15this is second tone

- 19:58um
- 20:06and last one boston
- 20:11very good excellent
- 20:13now we've seen
- 20:15how to
- 20:16read
- 20:17our tones
- 20:19and now we are going to learn chinese
- 20:22syllables chinese syllables we've
- 20:24already already learned three basic
- 20:27parts of pin which is initials finals
- 20:31and tones on it and if we put these
- 20:35three parts together then we can get a
- 20:37servo but sometimes a servo can be there
- 20:40without a initial but must be
- 20:44a final and a tone okay final undertone
- 20:49so now let's see some examples first
- 20:52what makes the chinese syllable first
- 20:55one is mao
- 20:57mao
- 20:58okay mao here
- 21:00let's see mao is the first tone word mao
- 21:05and it is combined by
- 21:08more initial and ao the final
- 21:13mao and the tone is the first tone mao
- 21:17mao which means cat
- 21:19cat
- 21:21now second one is
- 21:24we can see
- 21:26the initial part is empty here empty
- 21:29here which means it doesn't have a
- 21:31initial but some students might be a
- 21:33little bit confused because here is that
- 21:36initial for it which is
- 21:38y in
- 21:40english and
- 21:42it is pronounced as e in chinese so
- 21:46let's see here
- 21:48here the note here
- 21:49when
- 21:50e and u
- 21:52acts as n syllable by itself
- 21:56when e and u
- 21:58acts as an syllable by itself
- 22:00e is added before it this one is added
- 22:04before it this one
- 22:06and without two thoughts of we
- 22:10remove
- 22:12which means we will remove
- 22:15these two dots and just write it like
- 22:18this
- 22:19just write it like this
- 22:21and
- 22:22it's it looks just like all right so
- 22:26when
- 22:27what should we do when the final is
- 22:33itself
- 22:34accessing syllable
- 22:36then we should put
- 22:38this
- 22:39initial you pay for it okay
- 22:42this one
- 22:44is
- 22:46okay
- 22:48now let's focus on
- 22:52okay
- 22:52so this is
- 22:56and the tone is second tone which is
- 23:04means fish
- 23:06fish
- 23:07now let's see next one next one
- 23:10looks a little bit complicated but
- 23:12actually it is not let's see here it is
- 23:16the initial
- 23:17d
- 23:18right g and o final is ye
- 23:22and the tone is third tone so
- 23:25yeah
- 23:30yeah
- 23:31yeah means sister elder sister not
- 23:34younger one the elder one yeah
- 23:38yeah
- 23:40last example is er
- 23:44er
- 23:45we have no initial here and the final is
- 23:49er
- 23:50endothelin is fourth tone so
- 23:53er
- 23:54er it means two in chinese two in
- 23:58chinese
- 23:59now we've learned the syllables now

- 24:17e as we can see here it is the
- 24:21the final is what the final is e right
- 24:24the final is e and e itself excess and
- 24:28syllable so we put and
- 24:31put this initial in front of it and we
- 24:34get rid of this dot and then we put the
- 24:38tone on it tone mark so it is e
- 24:42e means close next one try to read with

- 30:38we should turn the first one the first
- 30:43two
- 30:44two third tones and when and when they
- 30:47are in the sequence we should read the
- 30:49first third tone as the
- 30:52second term we should change it to the
- 30:54second term
- 30:55let's see the examples
- 30:57first one is mi hao which means hello

- 39:16read after me please mean
- 39:20mean
- 39:21this is a pronoun too it means you but
- 39:24in a respectable way
- 39:27to say you so this one mean is always
- 39:31used when you are talking to a
- 39:35person you respect or someone older than
- 39:39you much older than you then you can use
- 39:42mean
- 39:43mean it is better than me

- 39:53two characters
- 39:55first one is me
- 39:57we all know that means you and this one
- 40:00is
- 40:01we can see there is no two mark on this
- 40:05which means this is a neutral tone
- 40:08neutral tone so for the neutral tone
- 40:11we should read these neutrogen soft and
- 40:15quick we shouldn't read it as
- 40:17man we should read it as

- 41:06can see the
- 41:07polite view right mean is the
- 41:10respectable way to say you mean how and
- 41:14we can see in this picture there are
- 41:16three people and one
- 41:18purpose and one is an old man old man we
- 41:23can see his hair is white
- 41:25so guess who said min how to who
- 41:30i believe the couple said mean how to
- 41:33this old man right because he is older
- 41:35than them
- 41:37to show the respect they use
- 41:42so when you are greeting your

- 41:47older than you you can use min hao
- 41:50instead of me
- 41:52okay
- 41:53and be answered
- 41:58because this old man is facing two
- 42:01people more than one more than one

- 42:51and let's separate the pin into three
- 42:54first one is do away do it the initial
- 42:59is two and uh final is y and tone is the
- 43:03first term so two way
- 43:08and the second character is the neutral
- 43:11tone we cannot see a tone mark here so
- 43:13it is a neutron so we should pronounce
- 43:16it soft and quick soft and quick so it
- 43:19is
- 43:21the next one is
- 43:23t
- 43:24initial is t and the final is e and the
