Skill Talk 5: Mastering Pinyin, Part 1


Listen Later

This is the first part of the Mastering Pinyin series where we focus on the Chinese Phonetic Alphabet, the basic pronunciation elements of the Chinese language, among 23 initials, 24 finals, and 16 whole-syllables, today we will start with the first 8 initials.
And also, we will talk about how to effectively practice them to improve your Chinese pronunciations.

The opening song is a recent popular single called 一花一世界, here's the full song.
The opening lyrics are:
钻戒的印痕纪念缺憾的梦
苍白的那一圈抹不去种种
数的星星排列成你的面容
原来想你已天衣无缝
闭上眼睛听着风说些什么

音色怎么完全和你吻合
门响了或许就是你来了

And the poem at the end of the episode is called 咏鹅.
鹅鹅鹅
曲项向天歌
白毛浮绿水
红掌拨清波
