Standard Chinese, a modular approach. Resource module on numbers, tape 3.
On this tape, you'll learn the numbers from 11 to 99.
Turn to display one in your workbook, which summarizes them.
Listen to the speaker read the first column, the numbers from 11 to 19.
11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19.
You've probably noticed that there are no new elements in these numbers.
Instead, they're made up of the numbers you've already learned.
The same is true of the other numbers up to 99.
Listen to the speaker read the second column, the multiples of 10.
20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90.
Again, faster.
20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90.
The third column is a sampling of the remaining numbers to 99.
Multiples of 10 plus units.
Listen.22,33,44,55,66,77,88,99.
Again, faster.22,33,44,55,66,77,88,99.
Again, faster.
Later, if you want to review, you may refer back to this display and you may listen to this much of the tape again.
But for now, turn the page so that the display is out of sight and go on with the tape.
We'll take up the numbers 11 to 19 first.
Listen to the speaker say 11.
She, she, she.
You can recognize the two separate numbers which go to make up the number 11.
They are 10 and 1.
What's 10?
10.
What's 1?
1.
As you remember,10 has the rising tone and e has the high tone.
Say 11 after the speaker and notice that the stress is on the second syllable.
11.
11.
Just as 11,11 was 10,10 and 1,1,12 is 10,10 and 2,R.
Sure.Sure.Sure.
Remember that R has the falling tone.
Try saying 12 ahead of the speaker and then repeat.
Sure.Again.
Sure.
Say 11,12 ahead of the speaker and repeat.
She, sure.Again.
She, sure.
What's the number for 3?
3.
The number 13 is a combination of 10 and 3.
Listen to the speaker say 13.
13.
13.
Repeat,13 after the speaker retaining a high tone on 3.
13.
13.
Say 12,13 ahead of the speaker and repeat.
12.13.
As you might expect,14 is 10 and 4.
Listen to the speaker say 14 and repeat.
14.
14.
14.
Did you say the tones correctly?
S has the falling tone.
Try it again this time ahead of the speaker and repeat.
14.
14.
Say 13,14 ahead of the speaker and repeat.
13,14.
Count from 10 to 14 ahead of the speaker.
10,11,12,13,14.
What's 5?
5.
By now you know the system used to form these numbers.
All the numbers from 11 to 19 are regularly formed with the word for 10
followed by the numbers 1 to 9.
What will 15 be?
15.
5.as a low tone.
Say 15,ahead of the speaker and then repeat.
16.
15.
All the numbers from 11 to 19 have the stress on the second syllable.
The first syllable,although unstressed,does not lose its tone.
Count from 10 to 15 after the speaker,paying attention to the stress.
10,11,12,13,14,15.
What's 6789?
6,7,8,9.
Repeat 16,17,18,19 after the speaker.
16,17,18,19.
19.
Again,with attention to tones and stress.
16,17,18,19.
Try counting from 12 to 18 by twos.
12,14,16,18.
Count from 11 to 19 by twos.
11,13,15,17,19.
What's 13?
13.
What's 16?
16.
What's 14?
14.
Now that we've covered the teens,let's take a look at the multiples of 10.
These also form a simple regular system.
20 is literally two tens.
Listen to the speaker say 20.
20,20,20.
Now you try.
20,20,20.
The stress is on the first syllable in this system.
Try saying 30.
Literally three tens ahead of the speaker and repeat.
30.
Count from 10 to 30 by tens and then repeat after the speaker.
10,20,30.
Listen as the speaker counts from 40 to 90 by tens.
40,50,60,70,80,90.
Now you say it.
40,50,60,70,80,90.
Listen to the difference between 12 and 20 and repeat.
12,20.
Now the difference between 13 and 30.
Repeat after the speaker.
13,30.
Count from 10 to 90 by tens.
Ahead of the speaker and repeat.
10,20,30,40.
50,60,70,80,90.
Exercise one in your workbook is a dictation practice on numbers you've had so far.
Cover the answer and write down the number you hear.
Then check the answer as the speaker repeats it.
1,12,12.
2,40,40.
3,30,30.
4,16,16.
5,20,20.
6,11,11.
7,70,70.
8,17,17.
9,90,90.
10,14.
Listen to the speaker count from 20 to 25.
20,21,22,23,24,25.
The numbers 1 through 5 are used after 20.
The same way they were used after 10 to form the ten numbers.
The system repeats itself.
Count from 20 to 25 after the speaker.
20,21,22,23,24,25.
Now try it ahead of the speaker and repeat afterwards.
20,21,22,23,24,25.
You notice that when 十 is in the middle syllable in the three syllable number such as 二十一,
it is weakened to the point where it loses its tone.
Count from 25 to 30 ahead of the speaker.
25,26,27,28,29,30.
The number 25 in Chinese is literally 二十五.
All the numbers from 21 to 99 are formed by using the number of tens followed by the number of ones.
What's 30?
What would 33 be?
33.
What's 60?
60.
What would 65 be?
65.
Count from 60 to 80 by 5.
60,65,70,75,80.
What would 99 be?
99.
Did you get the low tones correct and 九?
How do you say 88?
88.
Repeat after the speaker as he counts from 40 to 45.
40,41,42,43,44,45.
What's 18?
18.
What's 80?
80.
Count from 85 to 90 ahead of the speaker.
85,86,87,88,89,90.
Now the speaker will say a number and you reply with the next number in numerical order.
Then the speaker will say the correct answer.
Listen as I take your part in the first one.
51.
52.
Now you do it.
Number one.
51.
52.
Number two.
36.
37.
78.
79.
Number four.
49.
50.
Number five.
23.
24.
Number six.
84.
55.
Number seven.
65.
66.
Number eight.
12.
13.
9.
97.
98.
10.
73.
74.
Exercise number two in your workbook is a reading exercise.
Read the numbers aloud.
As you do so,pay special attention to tones.
The speaker will confirm the correct pronunciation after you.
Number one.
85.
Number two.
17.
Number three.
44.
Number four.
93.
Number five.
38.
Number six.
45.
Number seven.
70.
Number eight.
26.
Number nine.
52.
Number ten.
61.
Now let's review the numbers.
I'll say an English number and you return with the Chinese.
The speaker will then say the correct answer.
Let's go.
88.
88.
31.
