why add a piano bro wtf that's like adding electric guitar to a ravel piece it just doesn't fit

Practically, learn 150 words and about 30 radical commonly used. From 100 words can expand to 1000 words easily

改编得比上昆版好。喜欢翁育贤的正，朱璎媛的娇，更喜欢周晓玥的苏腔。谢谢上传！

That time we didn’t settle in America yet. We fought the Vikings.

Beautiful

Anybody else (who, like me, doesn't know the words) think of starting down a winding country road in an old pickup truck, the road downhill gets steeper, and then you realize your brakes are bad?

That blue on her forehead looked great. And when over the eyes too, hah ha, that was great.

She (those chinese woman) lied to you. The've use the phinyin sounds, which limited by 56.

Very interesting, thank you

I just listened to the second and the sixth ones and I had to stop. Such an attempt to reconstruct music from Song dyansty was a prove that Professor Joseph Lam's proposal of reconstructing historical music with contemporary aesthetics (or western classical asthetics in this concert?) was an unconvincing methodology of bringing ancient East Asian music to present days. Still, thanks for his experimentation. We know what the future pathways should be like in academic reconstruction of ancient East Asian music.

this lecturer is an idiot. How can she not know the character for MALE is not FIELD and KNIFE/STRENGTH??????

shut the crap... it is inefficient ..tedious...complex....not dynamic...

I'am not see 😢

Confuses literacy with conversational ability. Pedantically distracts and burdens the new learner with excessive details.

I learned Chinese character different from old method.i learned 50 pattern,from there extend to 600 character. Just recognize them, using voice input method change to characters. Eg. For recognize the Chinese character 常常要练习写字。加一些笔画变成新字。 人( )人( )人( )人( )人( )人( )人( ) 答案在下面。 天 大 头....买卖 灾火🔥火灭灾火土 太犬 头. From/ and \，move apart became 八入 then bend became 儿, add draw a line to form 又叉 又 write using Chinese 凵, u and draw 山 出 凹( 凵 u) 巾帼 离常 巨 叵 匠 臣 .using handphone software, as long write 70% similar word will appear

I love this song.

There are more to learn about Chinese language.

This is the wrong comparison. Letters in English are not used in reading, it's the whole words that we have memorised, thousands of them. It's easy to prove with the well-known little trick showing a piece of English text with letters substituted by other letters or digits or some other gobbledygook and the text remains perfectly readable.

China couldn't enter the computer age without adopting Western keyboards. The real test to find out whether English or Mandarin is more efficient is simple. Take 100 English typists and 100 Chinese typists (say medical transcriptionists), and use a type racer type program to test their average speed. I guarantee you the English typists would win.

A conductor? This doesn’t feel Chinese to me.

🏓😎🏓 As you know “ all mathematics “ are the universal language for science ‼️ because being an abstract language it’s independent of the written language of different countries ❗️Therefore being an abstract language like Chinese it’s not dependent on the pronunciation of it’s words 《 They can be pronounced in 56 different ways without changing their meanings at all in China. 》So I am sorry to say that Chinese language should be the universal language for the whole world by any right⁉️

🏓😎🏓 Do you know how the Chinese word “contradiction” was created ? The story behind the creation of the word “contradiction” in Chinese two notes compound word “矛盾” or “spear-shield” in English language is very interesting ! The story went something like this ～ one day a customer passed through a hunting store and saw the owner of the store selling his spear 🗡️ by saying his spears are so powerful that it will penetrate any shield 🛡️ you might have ! Then the customer asked the owner how good is the shield 🛡️ he was selling ? The owner said his shields🛡️ are so powerful that no spear can penetrate them ! Then the customer asked the store’s owner what if by using his spear against his own shield 🛡️? This store owner was speechless ! Hence the word “contradiction “ or “矛盾” was created !

The Central Government of the Republic of China published a list of 4808 characters 中華民國常用國字標準字體表 as a standard for literacy, those so-called "3500" she talks about is just a shortlist with non-standard characters chosen by an illegal "communist administration" with an aim to limit peoples literacy, you still need to know 4808 full form characters to understand standard language.

Dang, props to Emily for the interpreting. The professor speaks with a heavy accent, and takes long segments.

There are some things she doesnt talk about, not all simplified characters go back to the original form , the reason we like traditional characters is because they hold more of the meaning of the character, for example "listen "听 in simplified characters used the mouth radical, whilst the traditional form uses the ear (to listen)as its radical 聼，another thing we could mention is how in simplified chinese characters there is no difference between the character hou for "afterwards"以后 and Empres 皇后 whereas the traditional characters for these words are very different, traditional charcters clearly define the meaning, 後 is afterwards and 后 for Empress, another thing is for characters for hair, hair on the temples, hair in general, moustache etc you will see the radical which tells you very clearly the meaning is related to hair : traditional characters 頭髪 hair , moustache : 鬍子have the same radical denoting hair, the simplified character just uses 头发for hair. 发 does not show the characters meaning as related to hair, its just phonetically the same sound and its the same character as used in "to discover"发现，whereas, the traditional charcters for these two words are showing you clearly they are different in meaning :髪 hair, 發現（discover）if we look at love 爱 in the simplified version it has taken away the central part of the character which is "heart" if we lookat the traditional character for love we can see 愛 has the character for the heart at its centre, whereas the simplfied 爱has no heart in love !!! For me when I was learning Chinese, the traditional characters though they have more strokes , are aesthetically more beautiful and meaningful, for the student, they are logical and so in fact, easier to remember, I have to thank my teacher who taught Chinese from the radicals which is the best way to learn even though slower, it gives you a fantastic foundation of understanding the building blocks of Chinese characters , and in the days when i was learning , many dictionaries for chinese characters were arranged according to what radical the character had, we looked up its meaning via the radical then how many strokes it had.

Chinese is more intuitive but european languages are much more intentional, allowing for quicker assimilation of other cultures. I feel like Chinese works how latin and probably indo-european used to work. The thing with modern european languages is that they are born out of tribalism and war and absolute barbarianism so you get all kinds of weird words that get added to the roots of older languages that then get changed just for the heck of it sometimes because why not, your nation isn't lasting only your blood.

This is support useful information for a Chinese beginner. I was initially pretty confused why sometimes it seemed like Chinese characters were letters and sometimes they were words. Now I understand they're morphemes and it all makes so much more sense.

"prick stimulate" ahaha

Ugh that old American woman trying to naively take the concepts way too far lol

China destroyed their great historical, cultural legacy during cultural revolution lol now they are just trying to copy from werstern stuff and claim it's chinese lagacy

The qin playing is nice, but the erhu fucked it all up.

🏓😎🏓 Chinese is truly a very condensed logical and easy language that’s simply because of the fact。↙️ 【 Every Chinese one note character = Every English word in one letter abbreviation form 】‼️ ～ ✅ 😃 For examples : IOU =我欠你。UOM=你欠我。OMG =老天啊。LOL =太好笑。DIY =自己做。 BS =吹牛/胡說。OK =好的。OK?=好嗎。SOB=他媽的。AH=混蛋。SOS=救命啊。a.k.a. = 也就是。 One,Two,Three,Four,Five,Ten,Eleven,Twelve,Thirteen,Fourteen,Fifteen,Twenty,Thirty,Forty,Fifty, One hundred, One thousand = 一,二,三,四,五,十,十一,十二,十三,十四,十五,二十,三十,四十,五十.一百,一千. 0️⃣ God help those who help themselves = 自助天助 ❤️ 1️⃣ If you can’t beat them join them = 敗則投奔 ✅ ▶️ As you all can see that Chinese is a very flexible language by translating same idea in many ways below❗️ ↙️ 2️⃣ Easy come, Easy go. = 易得易失/得易失易 😉 3️⃣ No money, No talk. = 沒錢免談/沒錢不談/沒錢沒談/沒錢別談 ✔️ 4️⃣ Mind your own business ! = 少管閒事/多管閒事/管好自己/別管閒事 ! 5️⃣ (To be) or (Not to be) = (成) 或 (不成) 😎 6️⃣No way=不行/不能/不可/無法❌ 7️⃣ May be = 也許/可能/會是❓ 8️⃣ How are you ? = 你好嗎？⁉️ 9️⃣ Taste one’s own medicine = 自作自受/自食其果 ☠️ 🔟 Out of your mind?=異想天開 ? 🚫 ⏸ Chinese language = 中文 🇨🇳 As if Chinese have 3500+ abbreviation letters❗️instead of only 26 in English, so to speak.👀‼️‼️ 🆒 In order to communicate in Chinese we need only 3000- letters not 30,000+ words as in English‼️ ❤️ Clever people learn mistakes from others therefore to learn 5K years of mistakes is learning 中文 ! 🏓😎🏓 ↙️ 《3500 Characters vs. 26 Letters: Efficient or Inefficient ? 》by Kening Li 【 czcams.com/video/0LvhjgW9zh0/video.html 】 🏓😎🏓 How China Conquered The Keyboard。。。。。。。。。。↙️ 【 czcams.com/video/hBDwXipHykQ/video.html 】

Amazing lady!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO AND VERY INTERESTING PRESENTATION. I'M NOT AFRAID OF CHINESE ANY MORE.... TOO BAD THAT THE RESOLUTION IN CZcams IS NOT THAT SHARP TO SEE THE CHARACTERS.

🏓 😎 🏓 😎 🏓 As far as we know, 1️⃣ English is the only language able to use noun as an adjective except the Chinese of course, and it’s the most advanced alphabetical language in this world, 2️⃣ but do you know the first Chinese author ever to win a prestige Nobel prize in literature wasn’t even the best author by Chinese standards ? He won the Nobel prize just by using the most ordinary (ie. simple and easy) Chinese words to tell the most extraordinary Chinese stories in all his books. It’s because any English literature can be translated into Chinese characters but not the other way around. 3️⃣ Believe it or not, some English literatures can be translated into several different Chinese versions, because there are so many ways to express the same words or phrases in Chinese language. 4️⃣ But when an idea is written within another idea in a single sentence there are no other languages able to translate these Chinese sentences at all ! For example, how do you combine voice of one English sentence into the voice of another English sentence and write down as one single sentence in English ? Will this new 2-in-1 sentence pronouncing like a musical voice or noise ? 5️⃣ Therefore alphabetical languages are subsets of the Chines 3-D sound-form-meaning all 3-in-1 character language and Chinese is the only truly written language in the world. It’s not using voice (pronunciation letters) alone to communicate with each other. Every character in Chinese can be pronounced by different dialects in China without change it’s meaning what so ever ! 6️⃣ May be Chinese are hard to learn initially but it will getting easier as you learned more and more creative characters. Because we can use 3,500 more or less creative characters and their parts to make millions of related and easy to memorize words. English language on the other hand are very easy to write or pronounce at first but getting harder and harder to learn or memorizing and comprehend many unfamiliar, unrelated and illogical new words, and eventually end up with over one million vocabulary and growing by ten thousand or more new words each year ! How can anyone memorize all these new words quickly let alone 30,000 essential words you need to know in the first place ! 7️⃣ Besides being hard to create easy and clever new words, English are also hard on the computer storage spaces, because English words are 5 letters long on the average plus a space between two uneven length of words. On the other hand, Chinese characters can all be represented by 3 letters each with no space needed in between them therefore they are 50% shorter than each English word on the average. Although Chinese words consist of many compound characters, none the less for the same article Chinese still using 20% less memory spaces and 200% less printing paper for that matter than the English ! In fact, the thinnest copy of U.N. Charter is printed in Chinese. Less paper means less pollution on earth ! 8️⃣ Since every Chinese character has only one note which takes 1/4 second to say it and we have over 1,200 different notes in common use but our poor English friends only have 400 different notes to use, therefore to express the 401st. object it takes two notes or 1/2 second to say it. In general, it will take English 60 seconds 🐌 to convey an idea vs. Chinese people only take less than 10 seconds 🚗 ! In other words our Chinese Language is a High Speed Learning Tool ‼️

People of the past: if late 2016 was hard on your mood, buckle the fuck up. Enjoyed the talk! I usually hear the Chinese writing system called a "logosyllabary," which is a fair description for Literary Chinese, but I think your description as "morphemic" is a better description for modern Standard Chinese. Thanks!

Hello from Shanghai. I am enjoying your lecture very much.

This is amazing! Brava!

This is the biggest bag of BS I have ever heard. Chinese characters are outdated and should be eradicated.
