This is such a late comment but oh my gosh this channel is SO underrated! I found you guys a couple of weeks ago and have been listening to you guys at work. I started learning Mandarin at the beginning of this year casually and have been trying to study more everyday. I really needed an easier podcast to listen to since im still a beginner. I dont understand everything but it is helpful and I've been picking up a few words here and there :). So thank you guys so so much! I hope you guys cintinue doing what you do!

It almost feels really quaint that you two are complaining about the price of blueberries in this video here...

Now I can't stop singing chuckle vision 🤣🤣🤣 crackin show that 😂 The same mc hot dog from street dance of China? Well I never! Ages since I checked in on the podcast and how silly of me to leave it this long! Super entertaining and happy to work my way back through what I've missed You both sound great and congrats on all the episodes 😁

nice video

I like the thumbnail. Looks like futuristic Hong Kong, Tokyo or somewhere else in Southeast Asia.

I love these videos. I am learning Mandarin. I am struggling with the pronunciation of delicious and bus stop in mandarin. Help!

Where I live there is a...semi-national chain of film theatres that let you lie down to watch a movie. It is really expensive. I do not know what the price is for a child though.

You have a very interesting process!

你的视频总是很棒，谢谢！

I love your videos, but I don't often comment. I just wanted to say thank you for the content and especially for adding the vocabulary in the description. That is super helpful. I live in Beijing and have loved your podcast for a long time. Keep up the great work! God bless you and your family.

brilliant you did another one. need this with so much interview prep

LOVE THIS FORMAT. SO RELAXING! 💆🏻‍♂️🧘🏻‍♂️

Do you guys own HTC smartphones ? Mainland's & Taiwan's Pop phrases to be exact and precise. 👍

decent content. 谢谢你们啊! btw, are there Ula's siblings ok after the earthquake in TW? I hope they are!

我爱你的所有视频。 一天我会明白每东西你们说. I have only been studying mandarin for a few months, please excuse my bad grammar!

1:19:00 | he's talking about morphemes. Though "-ed" is rough, it's not really accurate because it's technical not tenses, but "verbal aspects".

19:00 "go even further beyond!". I got that. xD

I'm currently learning Japanese and French so I don't have time for a third language! Still, I'm saving this for the future as I find Chinese incredibly fascinating.

I love listening to your podcasts, I’m working my way up from the beginning! As a nurse in the US though, just have to say there’s no way that story about a guy going to the hospital and choosing which finger he can afford to save is true. Hospitals are required to treat people regardless of if they can pay or not. Also, no way anyone would be able to give someone an estimate for surgery that quickly. It’s really hard to find out how much any medical care will cost here! I love hearing about medical terms in 中文 though!

我会read it haha. He uses both sometimes it's funny

wow nice video

Can you make more of these please? Really good

Kl

Came back to this podcast to see it’s still going 2 years later ❤️🏆

The always respecting the elders is so hard to do sometimes.... I get it, but at the same time, you had all this time to be a decent human being, and you did not.

Guys, a dryer sheet is a small sheet of scented fabric (comes in a box, you buy at the grocery store) that you put into your dryer to make the clothes smell better. lol!

it's surreal living in Spain and listening to this

good job bro and sis

I Studied chinese mandarin in Mainland China but I find it that Taiwan mandarin pronunciation is more clear to hear compared to the mainland. And now im here watching to experience & exercise my mandarin so that I won’t get rusted😂👍

Love it

Love your channel

it's always a happy friday when a new Mandarin Monkey video drops!! in the US (not sure about UK), we call 柏油路 "asphalt".

This was a great episode thanks guys! Love what you're both doing! Love the style! Love the banter!

Ive been listening for about 4 months starting on episode 1 and I’m almost caught up 😭. What am I going to do with my life!! 😂

Just started learning Chinese after studying Japanese for several years. Listening to the Bilingual News podcast was an awesome resource for me. Love that you guys are doing a similar thing! Please keep it up!

The thumbnail 😂😂😂

I missed you guys , 谢谢你们的今天广播

wow good job

Thank you very much for presenting such videos to us

我三年前發現了你們的播客，最終聽完了每一集，趕上了現在的節目！

Before you get a boat, keep in mind that "a boat is a hole in the water into which you pour money"...

lol putting ketchup and cheese on Chinese food -- my Taiwanese uncle who lives in the UK puts soy sauce on fries (chips)!

the noises are just part of minecraft aesthetics

Tom, thanks for asking about, "Qing Kwong" and "Zhuang Kwong" in this, and thank you Eula for explaining the difference!

I clicked around on your videos. You both have a great charm and nice topics. Many things I love, however, I think you'd get a massive following if you had more videos with PinYin. I am quite sure if you had Pinyin in most of your videos, you'd probably have over 120,000 followers by now. I understand it's more work, but there may be a way it'll be worth it. Like, maybe do similar to Mandarin Corner, have PinYin and also offer a $30 membership access to all the scripts in Hanzi and PingYin. I am writing all this because I think you're both so charming and enjoyable to listen to, but, for me, without the PingYin, it's not as effective for me, so it will draw me to other channels that include the text. 😢. I hope you will consider it and then you can have over 100,000 subscribers and do similar business model as Mandarin Corner and make good profit also.

raising bilingual kids was a very different experience for me and my wife as 2nd generation Taiwanese-Americans. We didn't start learning Mandarin until our 20s (we both spoke Taiwanese with our parents) and so our Mandarin isn't that great, but when our kids were born we (and our parents) only spoke to them in Mandarin, ZERO English to them. Not even code switching. I think we learned from how our parents speak to us that code switching was a big problem because we never learned some of the most important words in a sentence in the mother tongue. Our kids learned English at school, they were pretty much ESL learners. Today our kids' (3rd generation Taiwanese-American) Mandarin is way better than ours. But they are an exception, we don't have any peers whose kids' Mandarin is even close to as good as our kids'. Our kids even get mad at us for speaking to them in English, which we need to do sometimes because our Mandarin isn't sufficient to explain certain things.
