B. The Four Tones
Mandarin Chinese is a tonal language. Every Chinese character is a syllable
with a fixed tone. However, there are more than 50,000 Chinese characters,
but only 430 different sounds. Therefore, a lot of characters share the
same sounds. There are 4 basic tones in Mandarin Chinese. Each one is
indicated by a tone mark, and the tone marks are placed over the vowels.
―
wēn (warm)
The first tone is a high continuous tone, like
singing the ABC song.
ˊ
wén (language)
The second tone is a rising questioning tone, like a
surprised “Huh?”
v
wĕn (kiss)
The third tone is a low drawling tone, first falling
then rising, like an indecisive “Well…”
ˋ
wèn (ask)
The fourth tone is a sharp falling tone, like a
command “Go!”
If the tone is wrong, the meaning will be totally different. For example,
“Wŏ yào wèn nĭ” means “I want to ask you.” “Wŏ yào wĕn nĭ” means “I
want to kiss you.”
