How to say good-bye in Mandarin Chinese

Posted by admin in vocabulary, tags: ,

In this video I teach how to say good-bye in Chinese. First say zài (再). As I mentioned in my lesson on pinyin before the z here is a slight d sound. Say zài with the fourth falling tone. Then say jiàn (见), also with fourth falling tone. Put the characters together and say zài jiàn. You will surely be understood!

Actually in my video below I forgot to mention that Chinese also often just say, "bye-bye!". So when you're not in a formal situation it is OK to say bye-bye!

I'm interested in hearing your feedback on my YouTube channel and this blog site. Please let me know how I can improve my teaching style. Also, I'm totally new to making videos and website design so I'd love any feedback/advice I can get on these areas! Thanks and 谢谢!  -David :)
