0	2800	Standard Chinese, A Modular Approach
2800	7200	Money Module, Unit 6, Comprehension Tape 1
7200	9700	This unit is set in the ROC
9700	14200	On this tape, you'll learn how to understand more questions and answers about changing money
14200	18600	as well as questions and answers about opening and closing times.
18600	21500	Mr. Perez is stopping in the town of Xindru
21500	24100	on his way to study Chinese in Taichung.
24100	28500	He tries to change some money in his small, traditional style hotel.
28500	34400	Listen, may I ask, can you ask currency to be changed here?
34400	38700	请问,你们这里可以换美金吗?
38700	43100	请问,你们这里可以换美金吗?
43100	45900	I'm sorry, that's not possible.
45900	51600	对不起,不可以。
51600	54100	Here's the auxiliary verb, may.
54100	57700	可以,可以。
57700	62500	Although the basic meaning of可以 is that something is permitted or possible,
62500	66300	you'll often find that can will be a better English translation.
66300	69800	You'll remember that你们这里 is really a place phrase,
69800	72000	meaning something like your place,
72000	75100	so that a more literal translation of the question would be,
75100	79300	as for your place, may one change American currency?
79300	81800	Listen to the exchange live.
81800	85600	请问,你们这里可以换美金吗?
85600	87600	对不起,不可以。
87600	89200	Again.
89200	92800	请问,你们这里可以换美金吗?
92800	95400	对不起,不可以。
95400	97800	Check your comprehension.
97800	105100	请问,你们这里可以换美金吗?
105100	109600	May I ask, can US currency be changed here?
109600	115100	对不起,不可以。
115100	118400	I'm sorry, that's not possible.
118400	120400	The conversation continues.
120400	124700	Listen, how about traveler's checks?
124700	129800	旅行支票呢?
129800	131600	That's not possible either.
131600	134800	You have to change them at the Bank of Taiwan.
134800	144800	也不可以,你得在台湾银行换。
144800	148400	Here's the auxiliary verb must or have to.
148400	152300	得
152300	155300	Listen to the exchange live.
155300	156900	旅行支票呢?
156900	160900	也不可以,你得在台湾银行换。

162300	163900	旅行支票呢?

168300	170500	Check your comprehension.

174500	177700	How about traveler's checks?
177700	186900	也不可以,你得在台湾银行换。
186900	188800	That's not possible either.
188800	192500	You have to change them at the Bank of Taiwan.
192500	194300	The conversation continues.
194300	198300	Listen, when does the bank open?
198300	204300	银行什么时候开门?
204300	206500	It opens at nine o'clock.
206500	211900	九点钟开门。
211900	214700	Here's the phrase used to refer to the start of business.
214700	217300	Literally, to open the doors.
217300	221500	开门。
221500	226900	The verb 开, of course, is to open, and 门 is door.
226900	229900	Here's the counter referring to hours on the clock.
229900	233700	点。点。
233700	235900	And here's the word for clock.
235900	239500	钟。
239500	242500	Nine o'clock is 九点钟。
242500	246100	You may think of 钟 as being o'clock.
246100	248500	Sometimes, 钟 is left off.
248500	249900	九点。
249900	254900	Just as we sometimes leave off o'clock, as in, it's nine.
254900	257300	Listen to the exchange live.
257300	259500	银行什么时候开门?
259500	261700	九点钟开门。
261700	262900	Again.
262900	265100	银行什么时候开门?
265100	267500	九点钟开门。
267500	269300	Check your comprehension.
269300	274500	银行什么时候开门?
274500	276900	When does the bank open?
276900	281100	九点钟开门。
281100	283900	It opens at nine o'clock.
283900	285700	The conversation continues.
285700	287500	Listen.
287500	289500	What time does it close?
289500	292100	几点钟关门。
292100	294700	几点钟关门。
294700	296900	It closes at three o'clock.
296900	301700	三点钟关门。
301700	306900	Here's the phrase referring to the close of business, literally, to close the doors.
306900	310500	关门。
310500	315300	The phrase 关门 can also refer to going out of business altogether.
315300	321100	In this conversation, of course, the context makes it clear that you're referring to a closing time.
321100	324100	Listen to the exchange live.
324100	327900	几点钟关门。
327900	329500	Again.
329500	333500	几点钟关门。
333500	335500	Check your comprehension.
335500	339500	几点钟关门。
339500	342500	What time does it close?
342500	346700	三点钟关门。
346700	349700	It closes at three o'clock.
349700	351700	The conversation continues.
351700	353300	Listen.
353300	354900	What time is it now?
354900	358100	I can still change money, I suppose.
358100	363700	现在几点钟还可以换吧。
363700	368300	现在几点钟还可以换吧。
368300	370300	It's half past two now.
370300	373900	You can still change money.
373900	378100	现在两点半还可以换。
378100	382300	现在两点半还可以换。
382300	385500	Notice that the marker 吧 is here added to a question.
385500	387100	还可以换吧。
387100	389900	I can still change money, I suppose.
389900	395100	The marker 吧 is added to a question when you're pretty sure the answer is going to be yes.
395100	400700	This suggestive quality of 吧 is translated here by the expression I suppose.
400700	402500	Here's the word for half.
402500	407100	半。
407100	410700	half past two is 两点半。
410700	414100	Although in English we seldom say half past two o'clock,
414100	417300	in Chinese you may hear 两点半钟,
417300	420900	since any clock time expression may end with 钟。
420900	423300	Listen to the exchange live.
423300	426900	现在几点钟还可以换吧。
426900	431100	现在两点半还可以换。
431100	432500	Again.
432500	435700	现在几点钟还可以换吧。
435700	439700	现在两点半还可以换。
439700	441900	Check your comprehension.
441900	449900	现在几点钟还可以换吧。
449900	451500	What time is it now?
451500	455700	I can still change money, I suppose.
455700	463700	现在两点半还可以换。
463700	465700	It's half past two now.
465700	468900	You can still change money.
468900	472900	Now let's back up and have Mr. Perez approach the clerk for the first time again
472900	476300	for a similar conversation live.
476300	477700	麻烦你。
477700	479700	我得换点美金。
479700	481900	在哪里可以换?
481900	484300	在台湾银行可以换。
484300	488100	请问台湾银行在哪里?
488100	491700	您看这张地图就在这里。
491700	494500	现在银行还开门吧。
494500	497700	哎呦,现在三点半了。
497700	501500	银行三点钟关门。

515500	517300	Again.
517300	518700	麻烦你。
518700	521700	我得换点美金,在哪里可以换?
521700	524700	在台湾银行可以换。
524700	527700	请问台湾银行在哪里?
527700	531700	您看这张地图就在这里。
531700	534700	现在银行还开门吧。
534700	537700	哎呦,现在三点半了。

551700	554700	Check your comprehension.
554700	555700	麻烦你。
555700	558700	我得换点美金。
561700	563700	Sorry to bother you.
563700	566700	I have to change some American money.
566700	570700	在哪里可以换?
570700	573700	Where can I change it?
573700	579700	在台湾银行可以换。
579700	582700	You can change it at the Bank of Taiwan.
582700	589700	请问台湾银行在哪里?
589700	592700	May I ask, where is the Bank of Taiwan?
592700	599700	您看这张地图就在这里。
599700	601700	Look at this map.
601700	603700	It's right here.
603700	609700	现在银行还开门吧。
609700	613700	The bank is still open now, I suppose.
613700	620700	哎呦,现在三点半了。
620700	624700	Oh dear, it's half past three now.
624700	630700	银行三点钟关门。
630700	634700	The bank closes at three o'clock.
634700	639700	现在已经关了。
639700	642700	It's already closed now.
642700	648700	明天几点钟开门?
648700	651700	What time does it open tomorrow?
651700	654700	九点。

656700	659700	好,我明天换吧。
659700	664700	谢谢。
664700	667700	好,我明天换吧。
667700	668700	谢谢。
668700	671700	不客气。
671700	674700	您欢迎。
674700	677700	The next day, Mr. Perez is at the bank.
677700	681700	听说,我想换一些钱去台币。
681700	685700	Here's a hundred dollars U.S. in traveler's checks.
685700	688700	我要换一点台币。
688700	692700	这是一百块美金的旅行支票。
692700	694700	我要换一点台币。
694700	698700	这是一百块美金的旅行支票。
698700	703700	Certainly, one U.S. dollar is 38 dollars台币。
703700	710700	好,一块美金换38块台币。
710700	715700	好,一块美金换38块台币。
715700	717700	Here's the word for Taiwan currency.
717700	720700	台币。
720700	723700	台币。
723700	726700	Let's compare the sentence,我要换一点台币。
726700	731700	With a very similar sentence,我要换一点美金。
731700	734700	The sentence,我要换一点美金 can mean,
734700	737700	I want to change some American currency,
737700	742700	in which what follows the verb 换 is the currency to be changed.
742700	746700	But in the new sentence from the exchange,我要换一点台币。
746700	751700	What follows the verb 换 is the currency to be changed into.
751700	753700	Literally, it means something like,
753700	758700	I want to change some foreign currency into Taiwan currency.
758700	763700	Notice that in the two phrases 换美金 and 换台币,
763700	767700	there is no clue as to the direction of the transaction.
767700	771700	It's only the situation which tells us that both refer to changing US currency
771700	774700	into Taiwan currency rather than the reverse.
774700	778700	If this seems unlikely, think of our own verb to rent.
778700	780700	The sentence, he rented the room,
780700	784700	maybe referring either to the landlord or to the tenant,
784700	787700	although in context it should be clear which.
787700	790700	Listen to the exchange live.
790700	792700	我要换一点台币。
792700	795700	这是一百块美金的旅行支票。
795700	800700	好,一块美金换三十八块台币。
800700	803700	Again,我要换一点台币。
803700	807700	这是一百块美金的旅行支票。
807700	812700	好,一块美金换三十八块台币。
812700	815700	Check your comprehension.
815700	817700	我要换一点台币。
817700	821700	这是一百块美金的旅行支票。
826700	829700	I want to change some money into 台币。
829700	833700	Here's a hundred dollars US in traveler's checks.
833700	838700	好,一块美金换三十八块台币。
842700	847700	Certainly, one US dollar is 38 dollars台币。
847700	851700	The conversation continues. Listen.
851700	855700	Here are five twenty dollar traveler's checks.
855700	859700	这是五张二十块的旅行支票。
859700	863700	这是五张二十块的旅行支票。
863700	867700	Please wait a moment. I'll be right back.
867700	871700	请您等一等,我就来。
871700	875700	请您等一等,我就来。
875700	877700	Here's the verb to wait.
877700	881700	等,等。
881700	885700	We've talked about the reduplication of verbs in Chinese.
885700	889700	Besides simple reduplication, such as in 看看,
889700	894700	there is reduplication with the number one inserted as in 看一看.
894700	897700	Both forms of reduplication have the same effect on the meaning,
897700	900700	making the verb more tentative.
900700	903700	We may translate 等一等 as wait a moment,
903700	908700	rather than just wait, to try to capture the softening.
908700	912700	After asking Mr. Perez to wait, the teller turns to go to the desk behind the counter,
912700	916700	saying 我就来,I'll be right back.
916700	921700	In this context, the verb lie is understood to mean come back,
921700	925700	and the adverb 舊,which we have again translated right,
925700	929700	means immediately. Listen to the exchange live.
929700	933700	这是五张二十块的旅行支票。
933700	936700	请您等一等,我就来。
936700	940700	Again,这是五张二十块的旅行支票。
940700	944700	请您等一等,我就来。
944700	947700	Check your comprehension.
947700	951700	这是五张二十块的旅行支票。
954700	958700	Here are five twenty dollar travelers checks.
958700	962700	请您等一等,我就来。
962700	968700	Please wait a moment. I'll be right back.
968700	972700	After the teller completes the paperwork,
972700	977700	she hands Mr. Perez three thousand eight hundred dollars Tai B in hundred dollar bills.
977700	980700	Now listen as the conversation continues.
980700	983700	I want some small bills.
983700	988700	我要点小票子。我要点小票子。
988700	993700	Please change this hundred dollar bill for me. Would that be all right?
993700	998700	这张一百块的,请你给我换换,行不行?
998700	1003700	这张一百块的,请你给我换换,行不行?
1003700	1008700	All right. I'll give you nine tens and two fives.
1008700	1014700	行,给您九张十块的,两张五块的。
1014700	1018700	Here's the word for bill in the sense of paper money.
1018700	1022700	票子。票子。
1022700	1026700	And here's a verb which means to be all right.
1026700	1030700	行,行。
1030700	1034700	Listen to the exchange live.
1034700	1038700	我要点小票子。
1038700	1043700	这张一百块的,请你给我换换,行不行?
1043700	1048700	行,给您九张十块的,两张五块的。
1048700	1051700	Again.
1051700	1056700	我要点小票子。这张一百块的,请你给我换换,行不行?
1056700	1062700	行,给您九张十块的,两张五块的。
1062700	1065700	Check your comprehension.
1065700	1070700	我要点小票子。
1070700	1074700	I want some small bills.
1074700	1079700	这张一百块的,请你给我换换,行不行?
1079700	1084700	Please change this hundred dollar bill for me. Would that be all right?
1084700	1089700	行,给您九张十块的,两张五块的。
1089700	1094700	I'll give you nine tens and two fives.
1094700	1100700	两张五块的。
1100700	1105700	All right. I'll give you nine tens and two fives.
1105700	1109700	The conversation concludes. Listen.
1109700	1112700	Sorry to have bothered you.
1112700	1116700	麻烦你了,麻烦你了。
1116700	1118700	It's nothing.
1118700	1123700	没什么,没什么。
1123700	1126700	I don't want anything else.
1126700	1130700	So,没什么,means literally, there isn't anything.
1130700	1137700	That is, presumably, what I did wasn't anything calling for your making such a polite remark.
1137700	1140700	Listen to the exchange live.
1140700	1145700	麻烦你了,没什么。
1145700	1148700	Again.
1148700	1153700	麻烦你了,没什么。
1153700	1156700	麻烦你了,没什么。
1156700	1159700	Check your comprehension.
1159700	1163700	麻烦你了。
1163700	1169700	Sorry to have bothered you,没什么。
1169700	1172700	It's nothing.
