  Learn to Speak Mandarin Fast   The first is to read more and speak more. No matter what thing you are going to do, there is a progress from shallow to deep, from unfamiliar to familiar, from quantitative to qualitative. The study of Mandarin also follows such a rule. Reading more refers to forming a habit of reading Mandarin through the process of reading books, newspapers, documents and so on. Even if it is inconvenient to read it out in some specific environments, we should also form the habit of silent reading. In addition, every time when we see large slogans or billboards, we shall read them habitually, which is an effective way to master Mandarin as soon as possible. Speaking more is difficult for learners living in some specific environments of Southern China, especially for people who have thick regional dialects. So it takes a little bit of effort to learn to speak Mandarin well.   The second is to listen more and practice more. Listen to radios and programs of...

  Direct Word Recognition English (and most of the world's languages) is a phonetic writing. In English, a character in writing form expresses its pronunciation, but it does not mean its meaning. Chinese characters are freehand. The glyphs of Chinese characters are both phonetic and ideographic, and their ideographic functions are especially obvious. The different nature of the two languages determines that the teaching methods of the two languages should also be different. About this point, Dr. Ma elaborated very thoroughly, here I quote directly:   To read the phonetic writing, what’s noted is that a particular combination of multiple syllables corresponds to a meaning. To read Chinese characters, a combination of a graphic, a sound, and a meaning is noted. To learn and recognize phonetic writing, the first thing is to develop the ability to spell while the first thing to learn Chinese characters is to develop the ability to distinguish glyphs.   In addition to the char...

  The following methods may let you know how to learn Chinese words fast . 1. Read first, then write. The relationship between the component structure and morphological feature of Chinese characters are obvious, so Chinese characters are easy to read, but their writing is difficult for foreign students. We can first let the students feel the glyph, understand the meaning of character, remember the pronunciation, but reduce the requirements of writing. Read first, then write; read more, write less.   2. Stroke decomposition. Correctly decomposing the Chinese characters into strokes, especially synthetic strokes, which helps write and retrieve Chinese characters.   3. Literacy card. There are various literacy cards on the market, you can also make it yourself. It is better to write the Chinese character on the front side and pinyin or paraphrase on the back side. There are many ways to use character cards, such as guessing pronunciation, meaning, and connection while lookin...

  The following methods may let you know how to learn Chinese spelling fast .   1. Framework method   When foreign students learn something, they want a whole set of logic and frame as their base of knowledge, learning languages is not an exception. So when we introduce the phonetic knowledge to them, we must first give them the basic frame and then slowly expand the frame into specific contents, so that the students will feel that the teacher is very professional, and feel more convinced psychologically at the very beginning. For example, when I give the foreign students lectures, I often use the Chinese greeting word, " 你好 ", as the introduction. I will first tell the students that Chinese can be divided into pinyin and Chinese characters (while writing the pinyin on the blackboard), and Pinyin can also be divided into three parts, they are 21 initials, 39 finals, and 4 tones. Next, I will introduce the places of articulation corresponding to each initial and final in d...

  Here are some suggestions about how to learn Chinese for foreigners.   1. Learn some basic vocabulary. When you learn a language, the first thing to do is to memorize some simple and important words and start practicing as much as you can. Although grammar and sentence structure are also important, it is meaningless to learn them before you have mastered a certain vocabulary.   2. Learn some basic phrases. Once you have mastered some vocabulary, you can try to learn basic phrases and sentences, which can help you with your daily conversation.   3. Learn the tones. Chinese is a tonal language, the same words with different tones have a different meaning (even if the spelling and pronunciation are the same). This may be difficult for people who are accustomed to speaking English, but if you want to speak Chinese well, the tone is crucial.   4. Learn pronunciation. By listening to native speakers (or YouTube), you can learn the correct pronunciation, and after yo...

  4. Learn vocabulary in "games." You can design a variety of small games, teach while entertaining. For example, when explaining the name of a body part, you can deepen the students’ memories by playing games. Specifically, you can do this: let students group, each group sends a representative, the teacher said which part, these students should immediately point out on their own. Other students act as referees, and the wrong representatives are sent off the stage. The last remaining student's group can be given appropriate rewards. Of course, different rules can also be formulated.   The advantage of playing games is to mobilize the enthusiasm of the students to the greatest extent, and the students take the initiative to accept, so the memory will be very profound.   5. Use related words to increase vocabulary. You can associate synonyms, antonyms, or words on the same topic.   For example, when teaching a sensory verb, you can put the related words together: I loo...

  When learning a new language, first of all, we should have a general understanding of the language, so the first course of each new Chinese training program is to give the students the basic knowledge of Chinese, that is, Chinese Pinyin and Chinese characters. Chinese Pinyin consists of three parts, they are consonants, vowels and tones. However, introduction about Chinese characters is relatively few in the first Chinese course, because few students learn Chinese characters. Besides, the teacher would get a general understanding of the Chinese levels of the students through communication. After that, formal Chinese teaching begins.   Pronunciation Teaching   The first two classes of the chinese classes for adults are used to teach pronunciation, and a  map is used to show the Chinese Pinyin.   As for the three parts of the Chinese Pinyin, all consonants and a part of the vowels( a, o, e, i, u, ü) will be taught in the first two classes, and the rest will be t...
