Learn Nationalities in Mandarin Chinese with Emma! Video Lecture | Chinese for Beginners: Basics to Mandarin - Mandarin (Chinese)

hey guys this is Emma welcome to my
Chinese class I hope you all are doing
great as some of you guys know I went
back to China this summer and travelled
quite a lot there I saw so many
foreigners from so many different
countries around the world in China so I
think it may be a good idea to teach you
guys names of some countries so that you
can ask and introduce your nationalities
let's get started
woman hi Sherpa before we start learning
names of different countries I'd like to
introduce two important vocabulary words
to you guys their country and person
were people because we will use those
two words a lot today in Chinese country
is gone cool person where people are yin
yin now let's learn how to say China
first China is Tongo Tongo Tongo john
means middle country is school so China
is John wah this is because in ancient
times
Chinese people thought they were in the
center of the world and the kings like
to be in the middle and thought it was a
very important spot of course nowadays
China is back at the center of the news
and world affairs so maybe it is still
appropriate right Chinese person where
people are John Gorian John Gorgan
washer John Gordon I'm Chinese
America in Chinese is a Mako Mako name
is beautiful and cool as we already
learned means country so America is make
war beautiful country what a great name
America
where Americans are make or yet make or
yet England is in core in core the
reason why we call England in core it's
because we translated the name from
Chinese based on its English
pronunciation British people were person

what fog or like England we just
translated the name from France to
Chinese based on its English
pronunciation as we didn't have such
