3:05That's really weird 太奇怪了 So that's John Paseness reaction to Boxing Day That's weird It's unfamiliar at the very least But it's the equivalent of Black Friday I guess I guess So that's right here So this is December 26th Yes Boxing Day So the Chinese person in this dialogue Didn't have any idea what it is Is that typical or did Chinese people usually know what it is? Very few Chinese would know what it is The ones that do know Probably have studied in Australia or Canada Okay, so you might have to introduce it to them So let's learn how to say that So right in the beginning We have a sound A very happy sound An exclamation of surprise Wow Wow And that sounds really weird If you're just learning it for the first time But eventually you might be able to learn to say

4:06Wow Instead of wow And it doesn't feel that weird eventually Yeah, so wow Is just wow Okay Similar sentiment Right and then the rest of the sentence 今天是Boxing Day 今天是Boxing Day Okay, that's pretty straightforward today is Boxing Day And of course the question boxing day是什麼 You're asking me Boxing Day是什麼 No, that's something that you're probably going to hear from your Chinese friend And this friend actually makes a guess Right? Is it all right? Is it all right? Let's take a look at the sentence because it's kind of weird I mean literally it's is it Boxing Like a day is Boxing So I think this is one of those cases where the Chinese leaves off Like little extra words Yeah That we English speakers feel like should be there But what is the sense of this sentence really

5:08It means does it have anything to do with Boxing Is it about Boxing Is it for Boxing So all of these things and any of these things Yes Okay, so the word for Boxing 全季 全季 So Q, U, A, N, Second tone And then J, I, First tone Right 全季 So this全 means fist Okay G means to hit Fist strike Boxing 全季 So that's the name of the sport Okay, got it It's so cool, we learned so many things in this lesson about shopping and about Boxing Different kinds of Boxing Okay, so it is not about Boxing, it is about 大剪架 是大剪架 So that means big, right?

6:09Yes So what comes after that? 剪架 剪架 剪 Third tone and 架 Fourth tone Yes So what is剪架? 剪 means to minus or to reduce Okay, so reduce what? 架 means price Okay, so big reduction of price 对 大剪架 是大剪架 Okay, fourth, third, fourth 大剪架 Yes So in normal English we say big sale So I fit in quite well with Chinese 大剪架 You mean culturally? Linguist they call you so no? Oh, because it's big Yeah Okay Got it, got it But there's no small剪架 Okay Yeah, you don't typically advertise a minor sale Yes Okay, and then the next part 东西都很便宜

7:11东西都很便宜 So this东西 means things, right? Yes So you might have heard 买东西 买东西 It means to go shopping, right? Yes Literally buy things Okay, so the things that you would buy And this day are what? 很便宜 很便宜 便宜, cheap Okay, second tone neutral But we also have a dough in here, right? 东西都很便宜 So this dough emphasizes that everything is very cheap The all-in-composing nature The whole world is on sale Yeah Okay It's crazy,大剪架 It's so crazy that it's weird I would say,太好了 But this person's reaction is 太奇怪了 太奇怪了 So奇怪, that means weird or strange Yes

8:11So I remember when you say, 太, something, look It doesn't necessarily mean that it's too much Like, it's not that it's too weird I don't believe you It's just, that's really strange Yes Okay 太奇怪了 奇怪 第二生和第四生 奇怪 Alright, got it, let's listen to this dialogue three more times Welcome back to another installment of ChinesePod trivia And the question for you is For what test does ChinesePod offer preparation services for?
