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!

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.

@billdurfy2110 4 года назад

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!

@clankb2o5 4 года назад

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

@SwZap 4 года назад

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

@jordanwutkee2548 4 года назад

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!

@jordanwutkee2548 4 года назад

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.

@tiddlypom2097 3 года назад

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 knew about the 'errrrr' of the Beijing area, in the UK we have some country areas where stereotypical farmers would use an 'arrr' to express agreement, a popular phrase was 'ooo arrrr' (oh yes), it is usually a southwestern trait, Somerset, Devon, Cornwall, Avon peculiarity. I also noticed that with some parts of China, especially southern, Shenzhen region they don't say 'shi bu shi' they say 'si bu si' the same is true of somebody I know from Sichuan province, she doesn't say 'shuo' but 'suo' the H is almost inaudible.

i'm not sure about cat, but dog is eaten in many places in china, not just guangdong, but also guangxi, fujian and many other places north and south, both in cities and the countryside. i've had it several times and enjoyed it. rat is also popular in the far south of china (and much more so in thailand), and there are many other foods most westerners would find objectionable all over east asia, but especially in south china and SE asia. as far as eating placenta, that does occur in china but is something western people also do, as both east and west there are believed therapeutic benefits therein. if i had to 'codify' the chinese way of selecting food from the animal kingdom, it would be that except for rejecting cannibalism, you dont turn your nose up at anything nutritious. it is a simple and sensible attitude toward food, much better than the western attitude that begins with certain loosely observed and apparently arbitrary biblical prohibitions, and goes on to projecting your anxieties onto others by believing you know what they should and shouldn't eat. to justify it you make up reasons like global warming or concern about the suffering of non-humans, or the worst sentiment of the anti-human crazies, outrage at the supposed injustice humans perpetrate on other animals. of course there are buddhists who eschew killing, but for buddhists that is a personal decision and not something you judge others about. you wont find buddhists among those organizing encampment at a dog meat festival for the purpose of harassing and putting down those who eat dog, but you'll find plenty of people sympathizing with dogs who believe the aborting of human babies is just fine if it makes someone feel better or maybe if it helps the climate

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.

That's the same joke I made when I first learnt the phrase AA制: what does Alcoholics Anonymous have to do with the act of splitting the bill? To this day I haven't looked for an explanation why AA has come to mean to split the bill in Chinese
