Chinese people like the red color a lot. China used to be called the “red country” in the past. Even now Chinese people like to refer themselves as “chi zi”, meaning the “red descendent”. Traditionally, red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qing Dynasty, different shades […]
Chinese think that tea drinking is a very sophisticated pastime. In Chinese classical novels, if someone drinks tea out of a big cup to quench his thirst, the action is called “drink”, like a cow drinking water. Scholars would use fine cups to drink tea and the word to use is “savor”. Tea drinking starts […]
In Chinese, people like to call Beijing a political city; Shanghai is viewed as a city of fashions; Guangdong is the center of the economy; Chengdu is a happy-go-lucky city. Chengdu is a major city in Sichuan Province. The temperature is mild and the land is very productive; in fact so fertile that even a […]
When offered a gift, a Chinese person will usually say “No, no, I can’t take it.” Even after he takes it, he does not always open it. It is because Chinese people often use precious or expensive items as gifts. During the Mid Autumn Festival, people will buy well-packaged, high quality moon cakes for gifts […]
Wu Hua Ba Men is a frequently-used Chinese idiom. It stands for variety and changeability. The literal meaning of “Wu hua” is five flowers and eight doors for “ba men”. Actually, Wu Hua Ba Men used to refer the various trades. Of “wu hua”, “jin hua” referred to tea girls; “mu mian hua”, traditional Chinese […]
When Chinese people go shopping, they often say “mai dongxi”, which literally means “to buy east and west”, but nobody would say “mai nanbei”(buy south and north). In China, the five elements are metal, wood, water, fire and earth, which are combined with five directions: east, west, south, north and the center. The east belongs […]
Some Chinese people like to keep a bowl of gold fish in their office. They think this can bring good luck in dealing with office politics and in their career. That is what we call Feng Shui or geomancy. Feng Shui is not a kind of superstition as many people think. It is a juxtaposition […]
If a Chinese child saw this question, he would laugh, because everybody knows “xiao xue” is Chinese for the primary school. But the “xiao xue” here refers to some other thing. It was the traditional Chinese philosophy in feudal times. It included “wenzi xue” (the study of ancient forms of written characters), “xungu xue”(the study […]
Facial makeups are a special art in Chinese operas which distinctly show the appearances of different roles as well as their dispositions and moral qualities by means of artistic exaggeration combined with truthful portrayal and symbolism. Facial makeups also serve to express praise or condemnation toward the characters. In Beijing Opera, facial makeups are limited […]
Traditional Chinese medical diagnostics includes 2 parts: the method of diagnosis and the determination of treatment based on the differentiation of symptoms and signs. The method of diagnosis is composed of inspection, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry and palpation. Inspection is the method to see the patient’s expressions, complexion, physique, posture, tongue and the fur on […]
Kunmingova pokrajina je zelo lepa. To je najboljše mesto za učenje kitajščine na Kitajskem. Moja najljubša metoda učenja na šoli Keats je individualno, ker je primerna za vsakogar. Moj učitelj je zelo dober, zelo skrben in prijazen. Moje življenje med učenjem kitajščine v Kunmingu je zelo dobro, vreme pa je zelo lepo. Zrak je zelo dober. Dobro je za telo starejših.
V Keatsu sem se imel čudovito. Presenečen sem, koliko sem se naučil v zadnjih treh tednih, in res mi bo žal, ko bom odšel. Že načrtujemo naše naslednje potovanje, da se vrnemo, saj smo se tukaj imeli tako fantastično. Tečaj kitajščine resnično prilagodijo tebi in tvojim individualnim potrebam.
Na Keatsu sem študiral dva semestra. Zelo priporočam šolo Keats. Če vas zelo zanima tečaj mandarinščine na Kitajskem, vam predlagam, da pridete v Kunming. Prebivalci Kunminga so zelo prijazni. Vreme v Kunmingu je odlično. Zato vam priporočam, da se učite kitajščine na Keatsu v Kunmingu.
To je bilo opazno, ker sem spoznal veliko ljudi, ki sem jih prvič srečal lani, da so se letos vrnili v Keats. Poučevanje je bilo fantastično. Učitelji skrbno pripravijo vsako lekcijo. Mislim, da je ta individualni pristop res odličen način za hitro izboljšanje vaše ravni kitajščine ter povečanje vaše samozavesti in tekočega znanja jezika.
Resnično jih zanima, kaj nas zanima, kakšna vprašanja imamo, kakšne zahteve imamo. Nato prilagodijo vsebino našega programa kitajščine glede na situacijo. En učitelj in en učenec, tako da je enostavno ostati osredotočen med 6 urami poglobljenega pouka mandarinščine. Zelo priročno je učiti se, živeti in jesti v eni stavbi.
Vsi moji sošolci ostanejo skupaj eno leto in zelo smo se izboljšali! Učitelji na Keatsu so vsi zelo super. Radi organizirajo veliko dejavnosti, ki nam pomagajo pri učenju kitajščine. Všeč mi je Keats! Všeč mi je Kunming!
Našla sem šolo Keats in zelo sem vesela, da sem to storila. Ko se v šoli Keats učiš kitajščine na Kitajskem, je zate popolnoma poskrbljeno. Moj učitelj je res odličen in postaneva čudovita prijatelja.
To je moj drugi obisk. Lani sem bil prav tako približno 12 tednov. Tokrat sem prišel na 13 tednov poletnega programa na Kitajskem. Razlog, zakaj si še posebej želim priti v to šolo, so individualni tečaji. Tako sem lahko izboljšal svojo raven in se kitajsko naučil hitreje kot v skupinskih tečajih. Če bom imel prihodnje leto spet priložnost priti, bom zagotovo prišel.
