Chinese Vocabulary - Days in a Week 星期 and Month 月份

Days in a Week 星期 and Month 月份
The modern Chinese names for the days of the week are based on a simple numerical sequence. The word for 'week' is followed by a number indicating the day: 'Monday' is literally 'week one', 'Tuesday' is 'week two', etc. The exception is Sunday, where 天 tiān or 日 rì, both meaning 'day', are used instead of a number (日 rì is somewhat more formal than 天 tiān).

Chinese Festivals - 牛郎織女的故事 - 七夕Chinese Valentine's Day / The Night of Sevens / Qixi Festival

The story of the cowhead and the weaver girl 牛郎織女的故事 - 七夕

Chinese Valentine's Day / The Night of Sevens / Qixi Festival




In late summer, the stars Altair and Vega are high in the night sky, and the Chinese tell the following love story, of which there are many variations:

A young cowherd, hence Niulang (Chinese: 牛郎; pinyin: niú láng; literally "[the] cowherd"), came across a beautiful girl--Zhinü (Chinese: 織女; pinyin: zhī nǚ; literally "[the] weavergirl"), the seventh daughter of the Goddess, who just had escaped from boring heaven to look for fun. Zhinü soon fell in love with Niulang, and they got married without the knowledge of the Goddess. Zhinü proved to be a wonderful wife, and Niulang to be a good husband. They lived happily and had two children. But the Goddess of Heaven (or in some versions, Zhinü's mother) found out that Zhinü, a fairy girl, had married a mere mortal. The Goddess was furious and ordered Zhinü to return to heaven. (Alternatively, the Goddess forced the fairy back to her former duty of weaving colorful clouds, a task she neglected while living on earth with a mortal.) On Earth, Niulang was very upset that his wife had disappeared. Suddenly, his ox began to talk, telling him that if he killed it and put on its hide, he would be able to go up to Heaven to find his wife. Crying bitterly, he killed the ox, put on the skin, and carried his two beloved children off to Heaven to find Zhinü. The Goddess discovered this and was very angry. Taking out her hairpin, the Goddess scratched a wide river in the sky to separate the two lovers forever, thus forming the Milky Way between Altair and Vega.

Zhinü must sit forever on one side of the river, sadly weaving on her loom, while Niulang watches her from afar while taking care of their two children (his flanking stars β and γ Aquilae or by their Chinese names Hè Gu 1 and Hè Gu 3).

But once a year all the magpies in the world would take pity on them and fly up into heaven to form a bridge (鵲橋, "the bridge of magpies", Que Qiao) over the star Deneb in the Cygnus constellation so the lovers may be together for a single night, which is the seventh night of the seventh moon.

Chinese Children's Song - 天下的媽媽都是一樣的

天下的媽媽都是一樣的
Mother is the same in the world



天下的媽媽都是一樣的
Mother is the same in the world

作詞：楊耀東　

作曲：楊耀東



天下的媽媽都是一樣的　哦~ 天下的媽媽都是一樣的

天下的媽媽都是一樣的　哦~ 天下的媽媽都是一樣的


不管風吹雨打　不管星期或例假

我的媽媽從來不放假工作為了家

廚房是她的天下　獅子頭還有紅燒鴨

樣樣她都精通不會假她是我媽媽



從小常常挨罵　那是因為我不聽話

不要以為這是種懲罰她只要我長大

媽媽我感謝妳沒有把我跟大毛比

雖然我考試沒有得第一她說只要你盡了力


天下的媽媽都是一樣的　哦~ 天下的媽媽都是一樣的

天下的媽媽都是一樣的　哦~ 天下的媽媽都是一樣的

不管太陽昇起不管夕陽它又落西

為了我們妳犧牲了自己我永遠不會忘記

將來有那麼一天我把太陽高高昇起

掛在妳永遠滿足的笑意裡媽媽我愛妳~

慈母手中線，

遊子身上衣。

意恐遲遲歸。

誰言寸草心，

Patricia Kuhl: The linguistic genius of babies

If you are one of the parents who would like your children to learn a second language, you don't want to miss this video "Patricia Kuhl: The linguistic genius of babies". These are very interesting findings. I can find myself related to it. Therefore, if you want to encourage your chlidren to learn another language, start at an early age!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


At TEDxRainier, Patricia Kuhl shares astonishing findings about how babies learn one language over another -- by listening to the humans around them and "taking statistics" on the sounds they need to know. Clever lab experiments (and brain scans) show how 6-month-old babies use sophisticated reasoning to understand their world. Read More
