    Hi everyone, I’m Kang Xin. Welcome to REAL Mandarin!

    If you’ve been studying Chinese for a long time but still struggle to understand what people are saying, then this podcast is perfect for you!

    In today’s episode, I’ll explain why “你好” (nǐ hǎo), the phrase many learners start with, isn’t actually a common way to greet people in real life. We’ll talk about the specific situations where “你好” is used and introduce you to the greetings Chinese people use more often.

    Let’s dive in and speak REAL Mandarin!


    大家好,我是康辛,欢迎收听真普通话。

    如果你觉得学了很久中文还是听不懂别人在讲什么,那么这个播客将特别适合你!

    让我们一起讲真普通话!
