| Title | Cultural Interviews with Chinese-Speaking Professionals |
| Body | From http://www.laits.utexas.edu/orkelm/chinese Cultural Interviews with Chinese-Speaking Professionals is a compilation of brief video clips in which Chinese-speaking professionals discuss cultural issues that are of interest to North Americans. The objective of the interviews is three-fold: First, provide practical cultural information about business topics. The opinions represent those of real people. At times they are even contradictory, but they are designed to be a catalyst for discussion, not a definitive answer about some stereotype. Second, the interviews provide vocabulary in areas within a professional setting. The interviews present diverse vocabulary within the context of each individual's comments. Third, these materials provide non-native speakers of Chinese with multiple examples of natural speech, illustrating the way that speakers really talk. Topics include courtesy, negotiation, and stereotypes. The videos are available at http://www.laits.utexas.edu/orkelm/chinese . |
