[0:00]Have you ever had this experience? When you hear a sentence in Chinese repeatedly, then no matter how complex the grammar or how quickly it's spoken, you just understand it and can say it fluently.
[0:14]Don't believe me? Let's try.
[0:19]What's your name?
[0:23]Where are you from?
[0:26]Why do you study or speak Chinese?
[0:31]What is this? Ooh, I know the answer.
[0:36]Now you see my point. That's why last year I created this video featuring 50 commonly used sentences, spoken at normal speed with a natural way of speaking, to help train your ears to real life Chinese.
[0:52]And you guys loved it. So today, I'm providing you with another 70 commonly used Chinese sentences that you will likely encounter in conversations with Chinese people in everyday life.
[1:05]I will say each sentence three times. The first time with a slow speed, and the last two times with a normal speed.
[1:13]Oh, you may think is the super fast speed, but I promise you, I won't speed up.
[1:20]I would just say it like how I would normally talk to my Chinese friends.
[1:25]And I've also made a little change. After each sentence, I will pause a little bit longer for you to read after me. And I want you to read after me, both the slow version and the normal/fast version.
[1:41]By listening to these sentences and reading after them once or multiple times a day, you will be surprised to find that in about 30 days, your brain becomes extremely familiar with them and reacts automatically the next time you hear them.
[1:59]And you're welcome.
