Dajia hao. Huanying, Welcome to LCN. Wo shi S., I&#8217;m S, and \u2026.. <br \/>M: Wo shi ML. <br \/>S: Are all our listeners repeating all the Chinese, ML? <br \/>M: I&#8217;m sure they are. <br \/>S: \u90a3\u597d\u3002That&#8217;s good. N\u00e0 h\u01ceo. N\u00e0 h\u01ceo. Two questions, ML, what will we learn today, and where are we? <br \/>M: We&#8217;ll learn one way of ASKING A QUESTION; how to say VERY, and NOT, as in not good. We&#8217;ll also learn to say WE or US, YOU (plural), and HE or SHE, and THEY, or THEM. And where are we? We are still at the airport. <br \/>S: Been here for days! ML asks me a question. Try to guess the meaning. <br \/>M: Stuart, \u4f60\u7d2f\u5417\uff1fn\u01d0 l\u00e8i ma? <br \/>S: \u662f\u7684\uff0c\u6211\u5f88\u7d2f. Shi de, w\u01d2 l\u00e8i. <br \/>M: Guessed the meaning? Listen to how TIRED Stuart is. \u4f60\u7d2f\u5417? <br \/>S: \u662f\u7684\uff0c\u6211\u5f88\u7d2f. <br \/>M: N\u01d0, You. L\u00e8i LEI l\u00e8i. lei, of course means tired. Ni lei, you tired. Put a little ma MA ma on the end, and you have a question. \u4f60\u7d2f\u5417? <br \/>S: shi de, wo hen lei! Shi de, wo hen lei. <br \/>M: shide, shide, at the beginning of a sentence, means right or yes. w\u01d2WO w\u01d2, w\u01d2 means I, or me. W\u01d2. W\u01d2 h\u011bn l\u00e8i. I&#8217;m very tired. W\u01d2 h\u011bn l\u00e8i. W\u01d2 h\u011bn l\u00e8i. H\u011bn HEN h\u011bn, means very. Like in h\u011bn hao, very good. Wo hen lei. I&#8217;m very tired. <br \/>M: Stuart, ni lei ma? <br \/>S: \u662f\u7684\uff0c\u6211\u5f88\u7d2f\u3002 <br \/>M: And now we&#8217;re both tired. <br \/>S\/M \u6211\u4eec\u5f88\u7d2f\u3002 <br \/>M: Say it, everybody. W\u01d2 men h\u011bn l\u00e8i. W\u01d2 men h\u011bn l\u00e8i. <br \/>S: So we need a few seconds break. <br \/>S: Ok, we&#8217;ve recovered. We&#8217;re not tired now. <br \/>M: \u6211\u4eec\u4e0d\u7d2f\u3002We are not tired. Say it everybody. W\u01d2 men b\u00fa l\u00e8i. <br \/>S: B\u00f9 BU b\u00f9, means not, b\u00fa l\u00e8i. Not tired. <br \/>M: Stuart, and you people at home, say, bu4 lei4. Both words in the 4th tone. B\u00f9 l\u00e8i <br \/>S: Ok. B\u00f9 l\u00e8i. <br \/>M: Notice anything? <br \/>S: Kind of difficult to pronounce. B\u00fa l\u00e8i, b\u00fa lei, 2nd tone then 4th tone is much easier. <br \/>M: You&#8217;re right. The BU sound bu , meaning not, is really a 4th tone word. But when it&#8217;s in front of another 4th tone word, it changes to the 2nd tone. <br \/>S: Agreed. Listen to the difference between Not Tired, and Not Good. Don&#8217;t forget to repeat them. <br \/>M: B\u00fa l\u00e8i, b\u00fa l\u00e8i. B\u00f9 h\u01ceo, b\u00f9 h\u01ceo. <br \/>S: Get it? \u5f88\u597d\u3002Very good. Actually, a change of tone to make something easier to pronounce is quite common in Chinese. It comes naturally. For example, \u4f60 ni\uff0c &#8216;you&#8217; is third tone. But I bet none of you have been saying n\u01d0 h\u01ceo. It&#8217;s awkward. Like us, you&#8217;ve been saying n\u01d0h\u01ceo \u2013 the n\u01d0 changes to 2nd tone. As I said, changes like this come naturally. Just mimic us, and you&#8217;ll do fine. <br \/>M: \u5bf9 du\u00ec, correct. But now maybe you at home are tired. I&#8217;ll ask you: N\u01d0 l\u00e8i ma? N\u01d0 l\u00e8i ma? <br \/>S: I heard, \u2018w\u01d2 h\u011bn l\u00e8i. wo hen lei&#8217;. <br \/>M: So did I. So let&#8217;s call it a day. <br \/>S: \u6211\u4e0d\u540c\u610f\uff01w\u01d2 b\u00f9 t\u00f3ng y\u00ec! I disagree! W\u01d2 b\u00f9 t\u00f3ng y\u00ec! <br \/>M: N\u01d0 b\u00f9 tong y\u00ec?!
