Meryl Streep Speaks Mandarin? | Learn Ancient Chinese Poem with a Hollywood Actress

Hey you, Rita aka Fàn lǎoshī here! My favorite American actress spoke Chinese in The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last month (also see my thrilled comment under the video):

Plus it was from memory from 10 years ago. Brilliant! Amazing! What a wonderful chance for us to learn something from her! It's always fun watching videos of celebrities speaking Chinese, actors speaking Chinese, etc. So in this video, I got you:

0:00 Intro
0:57 Why her Mandarin Chinese impressed me
1:51 Meryl Streep on Chinese Learning
3:54 English version of Wang Wei’s “Lu Zhai”
5:19 Reciting the Poem in Chinese
7:50 Breaking down the poem word by word (with ZEN music)

Let me know what you think of the questions I mentioned in the video or what you have been struggling with in Chinese learning.

Your subscription, like and comment are HUGE support for original content like this video to be promoted to more Chinese learners by YouTube algorithm! It means the world to me. 谢谢！

Remember, with Fàn lǎoshī, Chinese makes perfect sense!
