Hello! I’m Yuli. 😊 This is a Authentic Chinese listening episode. How to study: 1. Listen once without reading. 2. Listen again with the transcript. 3. Notice natural expressions and sentence patterns. Transcript: 我们每个人身上好像都有一些标签。 Wǒmen měigèrén shēnshàng hǎoxiàng dōuyǒu yìxiē biāoqiān. It seems that every one of us carries certain labels. 对我来说，其中一个标签就是：我会说好几门语言。 Duì wǒ láishuō, qízhōng yí ge biāoqiān jiùshì: wǒ huìshuō hǎojǐ mén yǔyán. For me, one of those labels is: I can speak several languages. 我的母语是潮汕话和普通话，我也会说粤语。 Wǒ de mǔyǔ shì cháoshànhuà hé pǔtōnghuà, wǒ yě huìshuō yuèyǔ. My native languages are Teochew and Mandarin, and I can also speak Cantonese. 除此以外，我还学过几门外语：英语、日语、泰语和法语。 Chúcǐyǐwài, wǒ hái xuéguo jǐmén wàiyǔ: yīngyǔ, rìyǔ, tàiyǔ hé fǎyǔ. Besides those, I have also studied several foreign languages: English, Japanese, Thai, and French. 英语是我现在最常用的外语；日语以前学得比较好， Yīngyǔ shì wǒ xiànzài zuì chángyòng de wàiyǔ; rìyǔ yǐqián xué de bǐjiào hǎo, English is the foreign language I use most often now; I used to be quite good at Japanese, 我考过日语能力考试 N1，不过现在已经生疏了很多； Wǒ kǎoguo rìyǔ nénglì kǎoshì N1, búguò xiànzài yǐjīng shēngshū le hěn duō; I passed the JLPT N1, though now I have become much rustier; 泰语只有初级水平；而现在，因为我住在法国，法语成了我最需要学习的一门语言。 Tàiyǔ zhǐyǒu chūjí shuǐpíng; ér xiànzài, yīnwèi wǒ zhùzài fǎguó, fǎyǔ chéng le wǒ zuì xūyào xuéxí de yì mén yǔyán. my Thai is only at a beginner level; and now, because I live in France, French has become the language I most need to learn. 回头看，我发现这几门语言不仅出现在我人生的不同阶段， Huítóu kàn, wǒ fāxiàn zhè jǐmén yǔyán bùjǐn chūxiàn zài wǒ rénshēng de bùtóng jiēduàn, Looking back, I realized that these languages have not only appeared at different stages of my life, 我最早学的是英语。 Wǒ zuìzǎo xué de shì yīngyǔ. The first one I learned was English. Complete scripts and video versions: find “Daily Chinese With Yuli” on YouTube.
