➌ Watch Expansion Videos (Highly Recommended)

Launch to Language Player (Web, iOS, Android) and create an account, then select “Chinese” as your target language. From the Media section, open any video that interests you, and watch with the help of bilingual subtitles. We recommend spending at least 5 hours watching videos on Language Player for each unit. Below are some usage tips:

  • Tap on any word in the subtitles that you do not understand.
  • Save the word by tapping on “save word.”
  • Review saved words, go to Me > My Words.
