The Two Chinese Characters (2CC)
The Two Chinese Characters (2CC) offer this lesson on how to pronounce the name of Chinese tennis star Zheng Jie, just in time for the Australian Open 2010. Help us stop the butchering of this woman's good name by western sports broadcasters. Zheng Jie, jiayou! 郑洁，加油！
"How to Pronounce Zheng Jie" also doubles as a linguistics lesson in one of the trickier aspects of Mandarin Chinese pronunciation, namely the distinction between the retroflex and non-retroflex sounds, represented in the Pinyin Romanization system as zh & j, ch & q, and sh & x.
Song written & performed by Jamie Ciocco, with Matt Corriel on piano.
