Learning Chinese? Our mandarin lesson for today features a short but simple dialogue covering the way real Chinese shoppers ask for prices. We expect it will come in handy the next time you're strolling down the street and see imitation Apple products available for one-tenth of their normal retail price.

What is the name of that song, that plays in the beginning?

Thanks in advance.

100% confused. How do I actually listen to the podcast? I'm certainly not paying without knowing the quality.

Hi Isabelle,

I'm guessing that you're using a browser that doesn't support flash, which means you can't see and won't be able to use the in-site audio player. In that case, you might want to look at our free iTunes feed, which has the most recent 200 or so lessons:

In Echo's examples, why 二百 instead of 两百?
 said on

@tangculiji,

Hi, actually nowadays in China we can say 二百 or 两百. Maybe you have learned that when 2 is used together with a measure word, the 2 will be pronounced as liang3. For big numbers such as 2百 2千 2万 2亿, we think 百千万亿are measure words. Because before Arabic numbers were introduced to Chinese language, Chines people had to write all numbers in characters. That's why 百千万亿 are taken as measure words.

However, after we have Arabic numbers, we can always write 200 instead of 两百. And we really dont think 200 is a big number. So we use both er4bai3 and liang3bai3 now.

175 = 一百七五 or 一百七十五 or both?
 said on
March 12, 2013
@LumiPanda爸,

It's 一百七十五. If there is no "五", you can say 一百七.

Wait, then how do you say 107?
 said on
March 13, 2013
minghan -- that would be 一百 ling2 七. The pronunciation of the zero avoids the ambiguity in cases like 一百七八 which, unless I'm mistaken, would be "around 170 or 180" rather than "178".
 said on
March 14, 2013
@orbital & minghan,

Yes, it should be 一百零七.

Actually we rarely say 一百七八, if it's around 170 or 180, we usually say 一百七一百八.

Thanks Echo. So here's a question for you -- how would you say 100007? It seems pretty awkward if we have to say 10 wan4 ling2 ling2 ling2 qi1, but that's the only way I can imagine doing it.
 said on
March 15, 2013
@orbital

I think that's 十万零七. Interior zeroes beyond the first one are omitted in speech.

@orbital,

Good question! Exactly like murrayjames said :)

The first multiple choice question on the PDF reads "How do you say 3in Chinese?" but I think it should read "How do you say 350 in Chinese?"

@prog_frog,

I'm not sure why it had problem like that. It should be fixed now. Thanks!
