Hi, I'm Fame Ketover of Lenguin.com, and this is Mandarin Chinese. Get ready because we're going to be talking about tones.
Listen to these four Chinese tones, which we'll do in their traditional order.
Again
Ok, so you're an English speaker, you're probably like, they just said the same word in four different ways. Well, not quite. See, in English, I could say, "Ma???". And that'd mean like, "is that you, mom?"Then I could say, "Ma!!". Which would mean perhaps, "mom, you're embarrassing me!!!". But in both cases the word "ma" is refering to the same thing. But, things work differently in Chinese. The way you say the word, determines which word it is. Now listen again to what we said are different words in Chinese.
Again
To a speaker of Chinese each of these words is perfectly distinguishable from the others. The different tones keep them apart the same way that in English different consonants set off "ma" from "pa" and different vowels set off "ma" from "me". So giving a word a wrong tone can be just as disastrous as giving it a wrong consonant or vowel. For example, if you say this: mǎ, when what you meant was this: mā, you basically just called your mother a horse.
So, let's take a look at the visual representation of each tone. The vertical scale covers about an octave. Just which octave it is, of course, depends on your voice. Now this is a somewhat greater range than you would use in English. Since the top of the range will seem slightly too high for comfort and the bottom's going to seem slightly too low.
The first tone, or high tone, word "mother" and the third tone, or low tone, word "horse", will help you locate these extremes. Have a listen:
Again, "mother" and "horse", high versus low.
People often equate Chinese tones to notes on the musical scale. And like you just heard, the distinctive difference between the two tones is that one is high and one is low.
