Learn Basic Chinese: How to say “I do not understand” in Chinese
Preview
To all the Chinese Learners, 听不懂 tīng bù dǒng is a very useful and common phrase and every Chinese beginner needs to learn.

When you do not understand something, you will default to saying 听不懂 tīng bù dǒng. However, it does not help in all situations. If you say "我听不懂",the native speaker will think you do not understand Mandarin Chinese at all, not like you do not understand the particular thing.

But, what if you just do not fully get the meaning of the speaker, like missing one word, concept, or maybe you just didn't hear clearly, what should you say?

Today our Hanbridge Mandarin professional Chinese teacher lilian will teach you the better ways to say "I don't understand" in Chinese.http://www.hanbridgemandarin.com/article/daily-chinese-learning-tips/say-i-dont-understand-in-chinese-like-a-native/

1. wǒ bù mínɡ bɑi ; wǒ bù dǒnɡ ; wǒ bù zhī dào
我不明白; 我不懂;我不知道
2. duì bù qǐ , wǒ bù dǒnɡ nǐ de yì si
对不起,我不懂你的意思
bù hǎo yì si , wǒ méi tīnɡ qīnɡ chu
不好意思,我没听清楚
4. nǐ ( ɡānɡ cái / ɡānɡ ɡānɡ ) shuō shén me ?
你(刚才/刚刚)说什么?

Basic Chinese Lesson: Common Chinese Measure Words
Preview
A lot of Chinese learners told me no matter how long time they have been learning Chinese, Chinese measure word remains still mysterious for them. The reason why they had this feeling is that measure word in Chinese is a totally new concept, which you can’t find any reference in other languages. So I make videos to introduce the most common Chinese measure words.

‘gè个’ is the first measure word you learn, and truth is when the Chinese kids start to learn the language, it is also the first measure word they learn. gè refers to human being, as in one person is ‘yí ge rén’, also you can add the nationality, for example: yí ge Zhōngguó rén一个中国人 (a Chinese), liǎng ge Měiguó rén两个美国人 (two Americans).
When you buy things
1. fèn 份: refers to one portion of food or multi-page documents.
2. bēi 杯/ píng瓶 = cup, glass/ bottle, yì bēi /píng shuǐ 一杯/瓶水(1 glass/bottle of water)
3. zhāng 张:refers to flat thing that are made of wood. (piece of ticket, paper, tables, chair, CDs)
4. shuāng 双: refers to things come in pairs (pair of chopsticks, pair of shoes, etc.)
5. kuai 块: is the unit for RMB.
This is probably the most common one in everybody’s life.
