00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,400
Standard Chinese, a modular approach. Meeting Module, Unit 3, Comprehension Tape 1.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:14,600
The situations on this tape are set in the ROC. On this tape, you'll learn questions and answers used in inviting someone to a private house.

3
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:20,600
James Franklin, an American businessman in Taipei, is talking with an official at his bank.

4
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:25,000
Section Chief Wang, are you free Saturday of next week?

5
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
Section Chief Wang, are you free Saturday of next week?

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Section Chief Wang, are you free Saturday of next week?

7
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:45,000
I was thinking of inviting you and your wife to come to our house for a simple meal.

8
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:59,000
我想請您和您夫人到我們家來吃個便飯。

9
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000
Here's how you say Saturday of next week.

10
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,000
下個星期六

11
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:16,000
The phrase 下個星期六 refers to the Saturday of next week. The Saturday of this week would be 下個星期六.

12
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,000
See the reference notes for further discussion.

13
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:21,000
Here's the verb to eat.

14
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,000
吃.吃.

15
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
And here's the word for a simple or informal meal.

16
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,000
便飯.便飯.

17
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:40,000
In the invitation you just heard, the verb 吃 is followed by a specific object.便飯.

18
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:47,000
When there isn't a specific object, the verb 吃 must be followed by the general object 飯, which literally means cooked rice.

19
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:58,000
The sequence 吃飯 is translated simply to eat, not to eat rice, just as the sequence 念書 is translated simply to study, not to study books.

20
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,000
Here's the invitation live.

21
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:08,000
黃課長,您下個星期六有功夫嗎?我想請您和您夫人到我們家來吃個便飯。

22
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Again.

23
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:19,000
黃課長,您下個星期六有功夫嗎?我想請您和您夫人到我們家來吃個便飯。

24
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,000
Check your comprehension.

25
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:29,000
黃課長,您下個星期六有功夫嗎?

26
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Section Chief Huang, are you free Saturday of next week?

27
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:44,000
我想請您和您夫人到我們家來吃個便飯。

28
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:52,000
I was thinking of inviting you and your wife to come to our house for a simple meal.

29
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,000
The conversation continues.

30
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Why is it necessary to be so polite?

31
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:03,000
因何必這麼客氣?

32
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,000
因何必這麼客氣?

33
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,000
It's not politeness.

34
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,000
不是客氣。

35
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,000
不是客氣。

36
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,000
不是客氣。

37
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Here's how you say, why is it necessary?

38
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,000
何必。

39
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,000
何必。

40
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:28,000
The element 必, you'll recognize from the phrase 不必, not necessary.

41
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,000
And the element 和 is an old word for why.

42
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:38,000
The Chinese phrase 不是客氣 means it's not politeness in the sense of I really want to do it.

43
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Listen to the exchange live.

44
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,000
因何必這麼客氣?

45
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,000
不是客氣。

46
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,000
Again.

47
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,000
因何必這麼客氣?

48
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
不是客氣。

49
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Check your comprehension.

50
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000
因何必這麼客氣?

51
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Why is it necessary to be so polite?

52
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,000
不是客氣。

53
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,000
不是客氣。

54
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
It's not politeness.

55
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Here's what Mr. Franklin says next.

56
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,000
我有一個朋友剛從美國來。

57
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000
The conversation continues.

58
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:22,000
She's teaching economics at Taiwan University right now.

59
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,000
她現在在台灣大學交經濟學。

60
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:31,000
I very much want to introduce the two of you.

61
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,000
我很想給你們兩位介紹介紹。

62
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,000
我很想給你們兩位介紹介紹。

63
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,000
Here's the verb to teach, followed by a specific subject.

64
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,000
I really want to introduce the two of you.

65
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,000
I really want to introduce the two of you.

66
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000
I really want to introduce the two of you.

67
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000
Followed by a specific subject.

68
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,000
交經濟學。

69
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,000
交經濟學。

70
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:09,000
When no specific subject is mentioned, to teach is 教書, just as to study is 面書。

71
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,000
Here's how you say the two of you or you too.

72
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,000
你們兩位。

73
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:18,000
你們兩位。

74
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:25,000
你們兩位。Check your reference notes for more complicated examples of a number phrase following nouns or pronouns.

75
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Here's the verb to introduce,介紹介紹。

76
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:39,000
You'll notice that words referring to the people being introduced to each other are put before the verb with the prepositional verb 給。

77
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:41,000
給你們兩位介紹。

78
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:47,000
Listen to all the remarks live.

79
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000
我有一個朋友剛從美國來,他現在在臺灣大學交經濟學。

80
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
我很想給你們兩位介紹介紹。

81
00:05:55,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Again,我有一個朋友剛從美國來,他現在在臺灣大學交經濟學。

82
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
我很想給你們兩位介紹介紹。

83
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,000
Check your comprehension.

84
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:22,000
我有一個朋友剛從美國來,他現在在臺灣大學交經濟學。

85
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
She's teaching economics at Taiwan University right now.

86
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:36,000
我很想給你們兩位介紹介紹。

87
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,000
I very much want to introduce the two of you.

88
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
The conversation continues.

89
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:46,000
That's wonderful.

90
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,000
那太好了。

91
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,000
那太好了。

92
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,000
I very much wish to talk with her.

93
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:05,000
很希望跟她談談。

94
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,000
In this exchange, the expression 太好了 means exceedingly good rather than excessively good.

95
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,000
The adverb 太 is often used this way.

96
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Here's the verb to wish to or to look forward to.

97
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,000
希望。

98
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,000
You've also seen this verb with the meaning to hope to.

99
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,000
Listen to the remarks live.

100
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,000
那太好了。很希望跟她談談。

101
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Again.

102
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,000
那太好了。很希望跟她談談。

103
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Check your comprehension.

104
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000
那太好了。

105
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
That's wonderful.

106
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:54,000
很希望跟她談談。

107
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,000
I very much wish to talk with her.

108
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,000
The conversation continues.

109
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,000
However, I'm afraid that my English isn't good enough.

110
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:12,000
不過恐怕我的英文不行。

111
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:19,000
Here's the adverb however or but.

112
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:23,000
不過。

113
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:31,000
The adverb 不過 is usually interchangeable with the adverb 可說 and is therefore more frequent than the English however.

114
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Here's the verb for to be afraid that.

115
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,000
恐怕。

116
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,000
Here's the comment live.

117
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:45,000
不过恐怕我的英文不行。

118
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Again.

119
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
不过恐怕我的英文不行。

120
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Check your comprehension.

121
00:08:54,000 --> 00:09:02,000
不过恐怕我的英文不行。

122
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,000
However, I'm afraid that my English isn't good enough.

123
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:08,000
The conversation continues.

124
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:14,000
Not only don't I speak well, but sometimes I can't understand what I hear either.

125
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

126
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:30,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

127
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Here's how you say, not only.

128
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,000
不但。

129
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:37,000
不但。

130
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Here's how you say, sometimes.

131
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:42,000
有时候。

132
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:44,000
有时候。

133
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:49,000
You may also add the marker 得,有的时候。

134
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,000
And here's how you say, can't understand.

135
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,000
听不懂。

136
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,000
听不懂。

137
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,000
The verb 听 means to listen and the verb 懂 means to understand.

138
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000
Here's how you say, can understand.

139
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,000
听得懂。

140
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,000
听得懂。

141
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,000
听得懂。

142
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:17,000
Now here are the affirmative and negative forms of the compound that refer to what happened, rather than what is possible.

143
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,000
I understood.

144
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,000
我听懂了。

145
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,000
我听懂了。

146
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,000
I didn't understand.

147
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,000
我没听懂。

148
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,000
I didn't understand.

149
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
我没听懂。

150
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Now listen to the comment live.

151
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:43,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

152
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Again.

153
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:50,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

154
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,000
Check your comprehension.

155
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:57,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

156
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:09,000
Not only don't I speak well, but sometimes I can't understand what I hear either.

157
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,000
Let's change the scene and listen to another invitation live.

158
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:20,000
白先生,我想这个星期四请你到我家来吃饭。

159
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,000
你何必这么客气?

160
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,000
不是客气,就是便饭。

161
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:34,000
我也请了一位江先生,在台湾大学教中国文学,想给你们两位介绍一下。

162
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000
那太好了,希望跟他谈谈。

163
00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:44,000
不过,我的中文说得不好,恐怕有的时候也听不懂。

164
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:49,000
不过,我的中文说得不好,恐怕有时候也听不懂。

165
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:54,000
没关系,你说得很好,江先生也会说一点英文。

166
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Again.

167
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:02,000
白先生,我想这个星期四请你到我家来吃饭。

168
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,000
你何必这么客气?

169
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,000
不是客气,就是便饭。

170
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:13,000
不过,我在台湾大学教中国文学,想给你们两位介绍一下。

171
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,000
那太好了,希望跟他谈谈。

172
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:23,000
不过,我的中文说得不好,恐怕有的时候也听不懂。

173
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:29,000
没关系,你说得很好,江先生也会说一点英文。

174
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,000
看看你懂不懂。

175
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:38,000
白先生,我想这个星期四请你到我家来吃饭。

176
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:50,000
白先生,我想这个星期四请你到我家来吃饭。

这位是杨教授,在台湾大学教政治学。

256
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:56,000
这位是史密斯小姐。

257
00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,000
杨教授您好。

258
00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:03,000
史密斯小姐好,您会说中文。

259
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:06,000
我喜欢说,可是说得不好。

260
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,000
不客气,您学了几年中文。

261
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,000
就学了一年,很少说。

262
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:18,000
中国人说话,您都听得懂吧。

263
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:24,000
有的听得懂,有的听不懂,我还想再学一点。

264
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:35,000
我想,在这里住了一两年以后,您的中国话不但都听得懂,也就说得跟中国人一样好了。

265
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:42,000
您太客气,我现在没有多少中国朋友,希望以后中国朋友多了。

266
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,000
说的机会也多了,就好一点了。

267
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:57,000
是的,哎,下星期六晚上,我请了几个朋友,在家里吃便饭,希望你能来。

268
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:06,000
那太客气,不过,我的中文说得不好,恐怕你们玩的没意思。

269
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:15,000
何必客气,我没请什么人,这些朋友很随便,您就来吧。

270
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000
我住在大理街,52号。

271
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:24,000
好,谢谢您,请问,下星期六晚上,几点钟?

272
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:40,000
我很希望跟你朋友谈谈。

273
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:51,000
不过,恐怕我的英文不行。

274
00:23:51,000 --> 00:24:09,000
不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。

275
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:20,000
我没请什么人,很随便。

276
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:32,000
那就先谢了。

277
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:46,000
我想下个星期六,请您到我们家来吃个便饭。

278
00:24:46,000 --> 00:25:10,000
您何必这么客气?

279
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:21,000
您说得跟美国人一样好。

280
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:31,000
我有一个美国朋友,在台湾大学教书。

281
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:48,000
我很想给你们两位介绍介绍。

282
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:51,000
