Ders oluşturuluyor...
1
Hey guys, welcome to the new video You have probably heard
2
that Mandarin Chinese is very hard to learn You may even feel intimidated after hearing about the four tones
3
and the thousands of Chinese characters Guys, I didn't even mention Cantonese which has nine tones
4
But today we are going to focus on Mandarin Chinese
5
Which is the most widely spoken language in the world with over 1 .3 billion speakers What
6
if I told you
7
that Mandarin is not as difficult as you think they just wanted to freak you out
8
and there are plenty of amazing self -learning resources all you
9
need is some guidance on finding the right learning resources method
10
and a good plan
11
if you are new to this channel my name is Zoe
12
I'm a polyglot who speaks seven languages Chinese is my native
13
language in addition to my experience in learning new languages I've
14
complied a lot of information over the years as someone who has done a lot of attended exchanges
15
and taught Mandarin to foreigners.
16
I've seen their weaknesses and areas of struggle.
17
In this video, I won't just list a couple of apps or YouTube channels and draw you in endless resources and confusion.
18
Why don't you explain this to me like I am an eight -year -old?
19
Instead, I will guide you through concrete methods on how to study Chinese from the beginning to an advanced level.
20
For each level, I will recommend specific resources to target different skills.
21
At the end, I will give you an applicable daily routine plan
22
so you can kickstart your learning journey today The study plan
23
I will be sharing today will take you from HSK 1 to HSK 6 in 20 months However, please keep in mind that this plan requires a lot of motivation,
24
consistency and discipline
25
So please adjust it to a suitable version based on your situation Maybe you already have an intermediate level
26
But I still recommend not skipping the beginner level Where I
27
will be sharing the most useful learning tools To help structure your learning Don't forget to give me a like
28
if you appreciate my work Now,
29
廢話少說開始吧 First,
30
let me explain briefly, what is HSK?
31
HSK stands for Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi which is the standard Chinese proficiency test for non -native speaker It's divided into 6 levels,
32
start from elementary to advanced each level contains a number of vocabulary and grammar points you need to learn By the way,
33
I made this video according to the old HSK as normal resources
34
and apps are built on it
35
and don't worry about the MHSK as the language remains the same and the new tasks that haven't been initiated yet
36
For this level, one goal, discover the language system and prepare the basic learning tools Pinyin
37
and Hanzi are two important components of Mandarin language system What is Hanzi?
38
Hanzi are the Chinese characters used in written Mandarin They are pictographic
39
and ideographic symbols that present words or concepts They are essential for reading and writing Mandarin
40
We use simplified hanzi in mainland China, traditional hanzi in Hong Kong, Taiwan or other Chinese speaking regions What is pinyin?
41
Pinyin is a system for representing Mandarin pronunciation using the Latin alphabet It uses letters
42
and diacritical marks to indicate the four tones as well as
43
the specific sounds of a mandarin phonemus Pinyin is often used
44
as a teaching tool for non -native speakers as it provides a more accessible way to learn pronunciation
45
and tone before tackling the complex characters of hanzi The most important thing
46
when you study Chinese is setting the foundations for pronunciation
47
and tones right You want to build up the language with healthy habits
48
and a strong foundation So in the first week of the plan, you will focus on tones
49
and pinyin It only takes about a week to get familiar
50
with sounds of language You are lucky as there are now plenty of resources to practice tones
51
and pronunciation I recommend these 3 videos Try listening to these videos during the week and post
52
and actively practice along with it Repeat each sound out loud
53
until you feel comfortable with the pronunciation as there are some apps
54
that offer pinyin and tongue training
55
or you can start with the basics using a well -structured
56
app such as Super Chinese where you can also train your
57
pronunciation with the help of AI I don't recommend studying too
58
long in the beginning just 15 minutes to discover the language with the app and build the learning habit during this period,
59
please focus on pinyin if you have a Chinese friend
60
or tandem partner you can also ask them to help you correct your pronunciation Now we will get into week 2
61
People often say, oh, writing in Chinese is so difficult and complicated Maybe I should just learn pinyin But guys,
62
to be honest, hanzi is the heart of Chinese language It's true
63
that nowadays we can type them with pinyin which is more foreigner friendly But remember, writing is still the best way to understand and memorize hanzi
64
So it should not be ignored from the beginning One mistake
65
that people make when learning hanzi is jumping immediately into the HSK vocabulary list
66
But studying to learn Hanzi without understanding the radicals will only make everything harder in the future So what are the radicals?
67
In the Chinese writing system, a radical is a graphical component of a character
68
that gives its meaning and helps in the classification
69
and indexing of the character Radicals are often known as keys or clues
70
and often indicates the semantic category of the character There are a total of 215 radicals in Chinese writing system
71
which are used to classify and organize the characters in dictionaries and other reference materials For example, the character for tree, mu,
72
is made out of the radical for wood, mu and the phonetic component,
73
this component indicates the pronunciation of the character By recognizing
74
and understanding the radical of a character one can more easily learn
75
and remember new characters that are related in meaning for example
76
when we were in elementary school we all had to start
77
from learning radicals in Chinese lessons from the radicals we start to learn a set of hanzi then related words
78
so for week two I suggest starting only the most common radicals
79
which number around 55 at this level focus on understanding what
80
each radical represents this part will take around two weeks to complete
81
and you will be studying a couple of radicals every day
82
through writing try to find corresponding hands with each radical
83
but you don't need to memorize them yet just focus on
84
a function of the radical is essential to train how your picture
85
or character from the beginning to practice writing whether it's hands
86
or radicals you can use tofu learning
87
which offers many writing practice set for each level
88
and also food radicals is available on both mobile app
89
and desktop versions
90
or you can buy notebooks designed for chinese children to learn hanzi these are very helpful for practicing strict order
91
and writing you can find them easily on amazon or aliexpress
92
if you live in china you can find it easily on
93
taobao oh you can even consider buying a chinese radical poster another important tip guys always add the pinyin
94
when you write down a radical
95
or a word it's a good habit to get used to reading pinyin
96
while writing any characters the play code dictionary can help you
97
break down every character into the basic components it's gonna be
98
a great free tool during your whole mandarin learning journey
99
if you have more budget there is a pain dictionary called handbook
100
which is also great this dictionary offers more than just the
101
word definitions It offers many great features such as adding words to your own private collection
102
and then reviewing flashcards and testing later Please continue practicing tones and pronunciation in this phase
103
HSK -1 Now we have the basic concept about the language
104
and we have prepared the basic tools In HSK -1 level You can expect to understand
105
and use simple words
106
and phrases HSK -1 is a beginner level you only have
107
150 words I estimated 15 days to complete this level every
108
day you will be requested to study 10 characters only
109
if you prefer to study with the structured book the HSK
110
books will be the best option where you have the word list, conversation, grammar points and detailed explanations
111
there are youtube videos based on these books you can check
112
out these two HSK1 courses on youtube they cover all the
113
lessons from standard HSK books for levels HSK 2 to 6 you can also use this book collection
114
and videos as your main learning resources so here's the plan
115
first set your goal start with writing 10 characters every day
116
the writing practice shouldn't take more than 30 minutes I believe
117
writing is the most effective way to memorize vocabulary with this
118
method you hit two birds with one stone memorize the meaning
119
and practice writing You don't have to fill tons of papers with the characters over
120
and over Try writing every character a couple of times Then on a separate paper Test yourself and see
121
if you can remember Keep doing this until you remember each
122
word Another useful technique is to make a separate paper with only pinyin
123
and meaning Try to remember the corresponding hanzi
124
And don't forget to do a weekly review every weekend to emphasize everything you have learned Secondly, you can choose any flashcard apps
125
and set it to study 10 characters every day You can use the apps like Super Chinese, HSK Study, Quizlet, where they are prepared
126
decks based on the different learning book
127
or you can even build your own set you can use enki quizlet
128
or memorize the third thing you must do is practice listening
129
and speaking repeats every word out loud here i recommend you a youtube video
130
that explains all the hsk vocabulary with meaning
131
and sentence examples the cool thing about this video is
132
that there is a time step for each word
133
so you can visit it quickly the fourth thing
134
that you need to do is go to the Chinese wiki website
135
that contains all of grammar points divided by each level from
136
HSK 1 to HSK 6 with a set of examples you
137
can choose to study one grammatical point every day that's a very good idea
138
or if you have already purchased the HSK books you can follow through with each lesson both will work.
139
HSK 2 in terms of difficulty is more or less same as HSK 1.
140
In this level, I advise the same study plan as HSK 1.
141
Stick to a main resource such as HSK books.
142
Don't forget to integrate Hans' writing in your daily routine.
143
You will be studying 10 new words a day on the course of two weeks.
144
If you have time, you can start to watch other Mandarin Learning YouTube channels or Instagrammers such as.
145
This way you can start gradually surrounding yourself with language the
146
short videos on Instagram can increase your information in a couple of seconds only
147
when you are walking
148
or driving you can also listen to podcasts I highly recommend Chinese port they offer a vocabulary explanation
149
and grammatical points for each level in both Mandarin
150
and English they also give some insight into Chinese society
151
so you can begin to understand people as you can't separate
152
language from culture you can also try out this listening comprehension
153
from learn Chinese with Chinese class 101 after you finish this level you can test the listening skills
154
and finally the last level of the elementary series HSK 3
155
after completing this level you will be able to hold basic conversation in daily life
156
and communicate with people
157
while traveling in China HSK 3 typically takes about one month to complete all the resources
158
and methods mentioned before still work for this level Stick to
159
your favorite main learning resource Don't try to study from all resources at once
160
Or use three different apps at the same time It will overwhelm you Do hands -writing exercises
161
and daily flashcards In your free time, start integrating elementary level podcasts into your daily routine For example, Chinese class 101
162
which covers all HSK levels from beginner to advanced They have English translation for the beginner levels
163
and Mandarin only for advanced level They also offer some cultural insight
164
and interesting fact about life in China You can also start to listen to Chinese songs I personally like Mo Wenwei,
165
Wang Fei, Chen Yixun You can even watch Chinese vocal shows like Washi Go Show, Womende Ge The good thing about this type of show Is
166
that they always put lyrics on the screen
167
So you can try to recognize some Han Zi
168
Which is a good exercise Practicing singing with lyrics can be very rewarding in the future
169
when you have a Chinese friend and go into karaoke bars and flout your Mandarin skills In this level,
170
you should be able to discuss a wide range of topics in Chinese
171
and communicate fluently with native speakers in common situations As for your learning routine, I suggest you start integrating TV shows,
172
series or videos into your practice For example, 爸爸去哪儿 is a very cute show If you enjoy anime,
173
there are a lot of Chinese options Such as 大鱼海棠, 中国企团, 西游记之大圣归来, 白蛇元起,
174
鹅渣之魔童将士 These shows often incorporate traditional Chinese culture
175
and literature Provided an interesting way to explore Chinese culture If you talk about this with your Chinese friends, they will be impressed Like here,
176
Zhongguo Qitan is very new It's an 8 Chinese 4 cartels collection You can find it on YouTube with Chinese
177
and English subtitles For Chinese videos, Bilibili Chinese YouTube It's a great platform to explore
178
And you can also follow Chinese YouTubers who discuss daily topics Like April for makeup contents Guys,
179
she's amazing Or Amanda, Taste for Cooking Or Meishu Zuojia Wanggang for Authentic Chinese Food Trust me,
180
cooking Chinese food is the best way to discuss of Chinese culture many of these videos have English subtitles
181
but it's important to always put on a Chinese subtitles
182
and try to read the hanzi there is a one Chinese learning channel
183
which is great for these levels of listening skill Mandarin Conner
184
they offer a very interesting podcast they discuss interesting topics about daily life
185
or Chinese people such as what does the Chinese people think about trading the one trial policy
186
or what Chinese people think about dating foreigners and they offer hanzi pinyin
187
and English transcripts for each episode For the intermediate level, you can listen to Chichat, learn Chinese and Chiyo What is great about this podcast is
188
that they break down the grammar
189
and the sentence structure in a very simple way The topics are very engaging
190
and they cover a variety of levels It's important to practice listening at natural speaking speed
191
and start noticing the difference between colloquial
192
and standard speaking You should also focus more on grammar
193
and sentence structure Chinese grammar is not complicated But at the intermediate
194
or advanced level There are many grammar points
195
and details To pay attention to in order to speak more naturally
196
But if you encounter any grammar problems You can always use Chinese Viki to search and practice
197
HSK 5 is more like an upper intermediate level By the
198
end of this level You are expected to be able to read Chinese newspapers
199
and magazines watch Chinese films and TV shows write
200
and deliver full speeches to improve your language skills I recommend watching more advanced TV series
201
and news as well as listening to advanced podcasts you should also continue practicing writing
202
and building up your vocabulary for TV series I highly recommend Chinese growing pains
203
which is a comedy
204
that covers a lot of daily topics most importantly they speak in a standard accent
205
that is perfect for you to imitate
206
and practice another great series is Ai Qing Gong Yu Chinese Friends
207
which is also a comedy that covers daily topics
208
if you are interested in more sociological insight into Chinese society
209
and young people's life I recommend San Shi E Yi
210
which talks about the lives of 330 years old Chinese women The good thing about China series is
211
that they all have Han's subtitles If you want to check out the new 20 series You can check out 腾讯视频, Tencent Video For reality shows check out 腾讯视频,
212
热播综艺 And 湖南卫视, 芒果TV, 官方频道, China Hunan TV official channel The thing about learning Chinese is
213
that unlike other languages The most difficult part is at the beginning By the time you reach HSK 5
214
or 6 You will only be adding new words and grammar parts for each level In terms of writing, it will be much easier as the same character's components are broken apart
215
and rearranged to create new words It's like you are almost done completing a puzzle
216
and things have become more clearer and easier Congratulations, you have made it to the final level of the HSK
217
This level is particularly challenging as it's packed with new vocabulary
218
and information and typically takes around 9 to 10 months to complete By now, I hope you have moved away from relying on your native language to translate
219
or understand Chinese at this level You will be fully immersed in the language
220
and be able to engage with Chinese social medias read comments and interact with others In HSK 6,
221
you will be expected to understand virtually everything you hear or read in Chinese To help you with this level, I recommend exploring Chinese contents
222
that Chinese speaker comes to you The topic will be more complicated
223
but it's a great way to improve your language skills Here
224
I want you to share a fantastic Chinese food documentary with you Zhe Jianshan de Zhongguo, A Bite of China I'm sorry guys,
225
I'm just super foodie This documentary is not only about food but also explores Chinese culture, customs,
226
society and the relationships between people
227
and food It takes you on a journey from rural to urban areas
228
and provides unique insight into china personally i really enjoyed the first
229
and second seasons of this documentary i highly recommend it to anyone interested in chinese culture
230
and food additionally the chinese used in this documentary is a
231
high level very elegant making it a great resource for advanced
232
learners for more documentary you can check out cctv jilu there are two chinese shows
233
that can really help boost your language skills.
234
The first is Qi Pa Shuo, a Chinese debate shows that covers a wide range of social topics in an entertaining style.
235
For example, some of the topics discussed include should rookies in the workplace know to their seniors
236
or should marriage to be more about material things or love.
237
Another show that I highly recommend is Talk Shuo Da Hui, a Chinese talk show competition.
238
I think talk shows are one of the most challenging things for language learners because they involve culture codes, humor, and trendy social topics.
239
If you are looking for authentic Chinese podcasts, I recommend checking out Ximalaya app.
240
You can find a variety of Chinese podcasts.
241
I think you can find audio books there as well.
242
If you are into radio, you can also use a worldwide radio add -on to listen to all kinds of Chinese radio.
243
It's great to see so many people interested in learning my beautiful native language
244
and discovering the culture I know Mandarin can be challenging but believe me with passion,
245
discipline and consistency you can achieve amazing results Remember this is not a competition
246
so take it slow
247
and steady to win the race I hope you enjoyed this

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
