Getting Out of Bed

Consider this Chinese lesson an intervention. We know it can be rough giving orders to people in China, and it's an open question of whether anyone is even listening, but then consider it from their perspective and imagine how rough it must be to hear pretty much every single foreigner in China mangle the grammar needed to make a simple request. No wonder they want to sleep in.

So while we know this Chinese lesson won't apply to most of the old-timers here at Popup Chinese, the rest of you need to pull yourselves into shape and get up to the Intermediate level where we are all natural leaders! So join Echo and Brendan in today's podcast as they cover four key ways to tell others they need to do something, and point out the single-biggest mistake that everyone makes when they're just getting started.
