- This may be the funniest video I have made so far! I hope it can help you practice Chinese listening skills in an effective and easy way!
In this video, I will tell you what are the common stereotypes and misunderstandings that Chinese people have about Chinese people from different cities/provinces.
01:52 - Beijing people's stereotype
02:33 - Shanghai people's stereotype
03:49 - Guangdong people's stereotype
05:12 - Fujian people's stereotype
06:28 - Sichuan people's stereotype
Be careful if you want to tease your Chinese friends with these stereotypes. If you are not very close to them or they personally don't like this kind of jokes, these stereotypes may be a bit offensive!

Hi, welcome to ShuoshuoChinese 说说中文，my name is Shuo, I’m a native Chinese teacher living in Bangkok, Thailand, I’ve been teaching Chinese as a foreign language for seven years and I’m also a language learner.
In this channel, I will upload a video every week talking about Chinese vocabulary, Chinese grammar, Chinese culture, Chinese stories with pinyin and English translation for listening practice.
In my channel, you can easily understand complicated Chinese grammar, sentence structure, and difference/nuance between similar Chinese words.
If you are a Chinese beginner, I’m planning to upload videos about what is Chinese language, how does it different from English, Chinese pronunciations, Chinese characters and Chinese strokes sequence, and mini Chinese course (10 minutes per day) for beginners which can help you learn easily and quickly. Don’t miss it!
So, subscribe my channel and start your Chinese learning journey!
Your way of speaking is perfect for people who learn chinese, I was able to understand every word without looking at the subtitles 💗
Svaki video koji gledam da ucim nalazim Srbe, koliko nas ima koji uci kineski?
hahahaha I'm from Sichuan, and in my wechat group, my friends do usually say 今天出太阳了 出来喝茶晒太阳吧 ( It's sunny outside, come on let's meet up and drink tea) in weekdays. Sunny days are almost irresistible for Sichuan people since the weather there is always cloudy and rainy.
I worked in Sichuan for 2 years, I love the gloomy weather haha
This is so accurate about Si Chuan. My relatives and my mum be playing majong non-stop, when I went there, I almost ate hotpot everyday for 2 weeks. Worst of all most of the food are all mala ( numb and spicy ), it's basically torture if you can't handle.
I'm studying in Beijing and I wasn't aware adding the "er" in front of things was a dialect since they taught us this in the classes we took.
That's interesting tho
All countries have their own. States, provinces...it's all the distance you need to find people speaking slightly different.
I was taught that too. Even though I am from Hong Kong, I am still taught northern dialect in school, though there are annotations in the textbooks when we don't understand northern terminology since we use southern phrasings.
Yeah its kinda different because up north the old people normally prolong the end of words
There are "er"s in standard Mandarin as well. It's just the fact many southern people usually skip all of them and Beijingers tend to add more.
I've lived in Shanghai for a while and I can confirm that the stereotype is quite true for some of my friends✨
You are a natural when it comes to teaching!
Sichuan sounds like my kind of place to pursue Mandarin studies 😂 🍲🍵🀄
It is a wonderful place to live!!
I'm actually going there in October. I think Sichuan may be my cup of tea
@@kam1747 So exciting! Have fun and good luck!
For the Beijing skit, could have used the following dialogue:
A: 去哪儿？
B: 跟女孩儿一块儿去咖啡馆儿聊一会儿天儿。
I really enjoyed the video
Instructive. Informative. And very, very entertaining. :-)
谢谢老师。
Er, what? 🙃
A can ask 明儿去哪儿?
The Sichaunese stereotypes are spot on. I lived in Chengdu for 3 years.
Your skits are funny and cute. They help with the learning. Bell! LoL. 謝謝
:)) Bell!
The notification bear made me subscribe ;)
Agree this was particularly funny vid.
Man this was awesome!! I can’t believe how much of it I actually understood. You are a great teacher!
So funny! I loved when you bent down in front of the guangdong ren 😂! Thank you for this video, love learning Chinese with them!
Love your vids! Fun, informative and pragmatic. Best I've seen.
I'm so happy that I found your channel! I'm studying Chinese at university so your way of speaking helps really a lot to hear tones and practice them! In addition to that, the topic about inside stereotypes is extremely interesting. 谢谢你！
I just discovered this channel and it’s both hilarious and educational. I look forward to more videos!
Each of these videos is so well organized and dynamic and loaded with content, as well as funny and entertaining.
I hope that someday you are appointed as an official of education.
Lol loved your dramatization of "drink tea, play mahjong" the most. And the back to the sky one. 😂
Btw, I think you speak English very well. People who tease you for your pronunciation of 'l' and 'r' sounds may just be joking but they are really ignorant. These are difficult sounds to pronounce if they are not (used too frequently) in your mother tongue. Kudos for being so articulate in English.
That’s my favorite too!
And it’s ok to tease me for my pronunciation haha it’s kinda fun!
@@justacomment0214 the english 'th' sound as in 'think' is found in spanish from Spain (check for 'cerveza', just to give an example); and the english 'r' is extremely common in some regions of Brazil (São Paulo for example).
@@justacomment0214 这只不过是听说而已。如果这个国王真是个咬舌的人的话，那么 C，Z 的发音和 S 的发音就该是相同不是吗？但不是这样。
但是，你当然说的对：“TH” 的原本音位更像一个 S 。
（请纠正我的中文）
just want to get in on the discussion about Chinese people having trouble pronouncing zhi, chi, shi and opting for zi, ci, si instead. She said it's a stereotype about Fujian, but I've discovered that it's widespread in the south. For instance, I've heard this in Zhejiang very often
I really love your 普通话 pronunciation! It’s so clear and the accompanying 拼音 and 汉子 makes it even easier to learn. Keep it up!
xd there is an interesting typo. it should be 汉字 instead of 汉子. 汉子 means adult man.
I was wondering what the “notification bear” was in the last video I saw 😂. Thank you for the clarification. Love your videos! Very clear and informative
You are awesome. I left China in February and your videos are helping me keep my Chinese knowledge alive. Good job! Jai you!
I enjoyed this video.. 2 thumbs up!! I grew up in South East Asia and am slowly discovering my roots, more so now with Chinese dramas and movies. Keep making more videos!
I love ur videos so much! Please continue doing these ❤️❤️
Great content! Thanks for making!!
You’re so very energetic and funny. Love your humor!
I'm in love with your way of making videos!! You have just earned yourself a new fan
I totally love your humorous way of teaching Chinese language. I laughed so much watching this video, you are brilliant!!!😂 Bell....❤
Me too ...I love this teacher ...my Comprehension of mandarin has so improved ...thank you thank you thank you
I have heard most of these 😄 Thanks for the interesting content!
😊
Very interesting!! Thank you for sharing in a fun way!!
I just found your channel recently, it seems perfect for me! I'm a British science teacher who lived in Shanghai for a few years and am still learning Mandarin, I might even be coming to Bangkok to work at an international school as my next post! I hope to learn more Mandarin and discuss education with you! More Mandarin-only videos would be great.
This channel is so much fun
Great video! So funny and educational at the same time 😄👍🙌
Wow this video is incredibly fascinating and funny! :D Thank you so much! :)))
Believe it or not, your stereotype about 福建话 probably just helped me understand our dialect more. 你太好笑了
haha. I have Fujian (HU-Jian? 😂) ancestry, but have difficulty learning it, so have been quite a shame to my family. But because of teachers like you on CZcams, my 中文 on the other hand is leaps and bounds better. 非常感谢🙏.
This was really funny to watch but also helps a lot to understand that China is such a big country and each place has it's own special characteristic. I wanted to visit to Fujian and also heard about this stereotypes so I'm looking forward to visit Fujian in the future. 😊
Your humor is really nice.
Sichuan folks are my kind of people. You got me to subscribe today. Congrats on your evolution. Keep evolving.
I hope I can have Sichuan people’s life some day!
Im soooo glad that I found this channel, not only you learning about culture also the language the sentences and characters are easy to follow xie xie Lao shi 🙏
😊
love your channel
From this video I got some laughs and educated a bit. I believe that there is some truth in each stereotype but be mindful not to blow things out of proportion / over-generalize, but to be open-minded and considerate of others. Thank you Teacher for this eye-opening video. Well done!
Thank you so much! ❤️ I've just discovered your channel and it's very entertaining and informative with all the subs and scenes you put. I want to have chinese learning sessions so bad.
Glad you like it!
@@ShuoshuoChinese very informative indeed. Now I know a bit more of Chinese people and the differences between one city/ region to another. You want to know what are some of the stereotypes that people from my country has on Chinese people? You can send Direct Message (DM) to me.. lol 😁
Love your channel ❤️
Very funny video 😂😂, brava!!
Love your videos
What a lovely class. Good job!
Thank you!
谢谢老师！我很喜欢这种视频😃
You are awesome lady ... I'm working with Chinese people enjoy surprising them after learning from you👍
Your accent is very enjoyable. Keep creating. 😊
很有意思的视频。谢谢你上传了！
Love the video! I live in Shanghai and its true the rent is high and most other things too, but friends are generous and 请客 each other. ;)
*Disclaimer
Really though, this was a very entertaining video. Thanks too for speaking at a slower pace. It really helps with listening and mimicking the accent and pronunciation 😄
😂😂 You left out Beijing at the end... bc it’s true! There are many pirates in Beijing “Rrr”! By the way, great video. I appreciate that you speak slowly and there are character, English and pinyin at the bottom 👏🏻👍🏼
Entertaining. You have a warm style :)
火锅王子😂😂😂
Was confused for a minute looking for an alternative spelling of "mao" in the dictionary until it realized it was the Shanghai accent 😂 Great vid!
I am trying to learn some chinese casually, for general interest and, as a 66 yr old, to maintain and sharpen my mental ability. I like your videos so much, they are also amusing which helps the learning process.
太好了！你非常喜欢你的视频😂👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Very funny and useful 多谢!
U R great, thanks for this!
Great films, I've only watched a couple so far, but very funny! (and obviously learning as well) - exactly the same in England!!
Your videos are very useful for me. I am learning chinese by myself as third tongue . This is why I set your lessons at 0.75 speed. When I pause to read again the last line is hiden by the youtube bar. It is just a detail but maybe you could consider it. Congrats for your amazing work, your energy and enthusiam. I can´t wait for your next video!
Thank you for telling me that!
I think this is true as i have working partners living in shantou , 3-4 times visit there and turns out , only few kinds of food i can really eat ,they eat everything lol. Anyway i really like the way you tell the story and i listen it everyday 🎉. Thank you
Very amusing and interested! 谢谢！！！
OMG. GREAT video!!! Very funny..........
I lived in Chengdu for 8 years and the Sichuan stereotypes are pretty accurate.
you would be usually a case of worst chemistry "at first sight" within my personal life experience, but your talent is amazing!!!! And your sense of humour even more!
谢谢您好好解释这个东西！很有趣啊！
Very interesting ! I love your chinese listening practice videos. Very helpful and always instructive about the chinese culture. Do you know stereotypes about Tianjin ?
They call everyone 姐姐 and they are all good stand up comedian!
Hey your English is great. A big thanks from the USA for the content
aww it was so cute when u said "bell" ~
Thank you
讲得太棒了!好厉害，向你学习💪🌈
I'm proud of myself that I can understand many characters before reading the pinyin. Thanks for helping me learning Chinese ☺
I hate pinyin
很有意思！谢谢老师！
It's true, one of my colleagues coming from Shanghai, he is that what you say!!!!
And some jokes from Chinese friends, they said it's only two of four-leg that cannot eat are table and chair!!!!
这种视频很有趣～谢谢！
this is so amusing XD
haha my wife is from ChongQing and every time I tell a new chines acquaintance that, they usually say ohhh she must be so pretty because she's from Sichuan area!
where are you from？
@@Min-Jeong2003 central united states
@SipNSparkle TV true. it used to be though before chongqing grew as large as it is, but some chinese people still associate them together
@SipNSparkle TV Chongqing belongs to Sichuan Province until 1995
good job!
Your channel has been very helpful! Can you make a video explaining the differences of pronunciation of z vs zh, c vs ch, s vs sh? Also zi vs ze, zhi vs zhe? It all sounds the same to me and it’s very confusing, do you have an easy way or tips to distinguish them?
You are funny as heck. I can confirm the two Sichuan women I have met were both 10/10 perfect beauties. All the rest were from fujian, they all spoke really good Mandarin as far as my ear goes. (I'm just about halfway through hsk1 so my opinion doesn't mean much.) Either way, thanks for the laughs I forgot about Shanghai people being stingy. We used to pick on one of the waiters but he was really cool and wasn't stingy.
Your videos are really useful. Thank you so much. I hope to master mandarin language someday. Greetings from Ecuador. :D
I come from 瑞士, and people tell that we're always slow... we do things slowly, but we're always on time (it's the watches' country after all!). Some people say that Swiss people are too polite and too strict (we go by the rules)... Some say that we're really tidy too. Anyway, those are some stereotypes about Swiss people and as in China, we do have stereotypes about each others regarding where we live in Switzerland (swiss german part, swiss italian part or romandy - the french speaking part).
Love your vidz ! Thank You !!.. FYI its "Hello" with an e not "Hallo" with an a :)
I studied in Shanghai for a semester, but I love Beijing's accent ^^ The things me and my friends thought were weird as foreigners in China are : drinking hot water, spitting and kids coming and talking to us sooo often haha
lmao yes, drinking hot water all the time! Hahaa
I laughed so hard when you got down on the ground and looked up, like someone was going to eat you. Very funny video!!! 😂 I also looked up tāipán. 🤢
Your videos are very helpful and entertaining, so thank you for posting them. I'm interested in Chinese dialects and curious about what dialect you are speaking at 1:34. Is it your native dialect?
I've just started learning Chinese, and I love your videos! I have been watching them all... you're both entertaining and informative!! Keep up the great work! Your pronunciation of "bell" is so good now ;) P.S.- you can say either "Don't forget to subscribe" or "Don't forget to subscribe *to* my channel", but not "Don't forget to subscribe my channel"... hope this helps =D
xiè xie!
Actually the stereotype in Sichuan is true. Most of the old people I see just drink tea and play majiang everyday 😂😂😂
Yes, this is right about "儿”。我也北边的留学生。我在郑州学习汉语，老师们都教我们说 “有点儿”, “这儿”, “哪儿”, “玩儿”。😁
LOL you are so funny!
我越来越喜欢您的视频了。😍😍😍
Nice video. True that Shanghai people are most open. Any stereotype of what Chinese people think about Hunan people?
on the one hand: curiosity!
on the other hand: I don't want to perpetuate horrible stereotypes or do other rude boorish things.
your accent is almost perfect and easy to understand! haha the Guangdong stereotype is the western stereotype we have for the chinese xD
very often you will hear "chineses eat everything that moves". maybe that's is because they're the biggest chinese group abroad, or at least in my country, 8/10 chinese people are from there.
My country has the stereotype of having lazy people, or grumpy people sometimes, because people over here (cashiers and employees) don't attend customers as they should do.
excellent
The "L" sound at the end or middle of a word can be difficult for a native chinese speaker because the sound appears at the beginning of words, but never at the end.
As an English teacher i often suggest focusing on tongue position, or tricking your brain but breaking the word as thought the L sound is the beginning of a new word.
Are there any tricks like that for chinese!
I think the best way is to pronounce “feeling” slowly, because normally that word is at the start of the second syllable. Slowly slowly until you can pronounce “feel” instead.
The downside is that those l’s are not articulated in exactly the same way (velarised vs unvelarised) but it’s a good start I think
Very true. "World" is one of the most difficult word for me to pronounce....
BTW I am from Fujian haha 【谢谢有被冒犯到233
SwZap - I am a native English speaker, and I was once trying to teach a native Spanish-speaking friend how to pronounce “world,” and it’s extremely hard for them too! Even for me, the more I say it, the weirder it sounds!
To pronounce the “ll” in “bell,” the tip of your tongue should be touching the bottom edge of your upper front teeth while you vocalize. Your bottom teeth will also be very close, almost like you’re about to bite your tongue, but the bottom teeth don’t have to completely touch to make the right sound. It might be a little bit easier to think of it that way, though. I tried to pronounce it in different ways, by making sure either that my tongue was only touching the top teeth, or that it was between and touching both sets of teeth, and it sounds almost exactly the same. That’s probably a good way to practice! Stick your tongue out a tiny bit, bite it, (not too hard, of course!), and vocalize to make the “L” sound. It’s a little bit different of a tongue position compared to when the L comes at the beginning of the word.
Reading these comments, I wonder if it would be easier for people to learn English with a non-rhotic accent.
Some English dialects don't pronounce all the 'R's. e.g. I don't pronounce the R in "world" (because it has a vowel before it but not after).
I dropped a like
Hahaha you are so funny in all the characters you were playing. You should be an actress😁😁😁
Should I? (Move to LA tomorrow
I study in Beijing and the "儿” introduction happens all the time!
This kind of videos are interesting
HA. I'm of Fuzhou-nese descent here in NYC and grew up with a lot of friends of Toisan and Guangdong descent and the stereotypes that they have of us is that we're obnoxiously loud (which is kinda true) and work in fast food restaurants (also true). My best friend is of Guangdong descent and yes, she gets a lot of "You eat live snake soaked in wine," kinda thing. My husband is of Greek descent so get me started on the types of stereotypes he has of the Chinese, in general. HAHAHAHA.
