    潮词儿EVERYDAY season 1 hey, guys 
    r u still say some old-fashioned chinese ?
    want to learn the most popular expression in china?
    here it is
    welcome to mischa's hot words everyday
    today i gatta illustrate a hot a word in china nowadays
    that is 潮 chao2
    perhaps u've ever heard the word 潮 as its oringinal meaning 潮汐 tide or a adj. 潮湿的 moist 
    but now ,it means that some body is extremely fashion!
    you may see the word 潮人 or  潮圣  they all means someone who stands on the top of vouge 
    for example ,we can say lady gaga is a 潮人  
    but not everyone thinks of  潮 as   a  positive word
    in some northen province in china (at least in shandong province)
    潮 is a rude word , it may means stupid
    the best translation of a famous word in the film forrest gump :r u  stupid or sth
    i think ,is , 你是潮巴么?
    but it's definitely  ok if you say 潮as positive word  in shanghai
    well , our title :潮词儿everyday  means  fashion words everyday
    you can also make ur own words with the word 潮 like 潮牌 which means a brand sales pretty fashion clothes and many young people wear it ,such as banana republic , vans , evisu whatever .
    don't forget to share ur 潮词儿 with us ~

    the word 价值 in chinese is too much official, usually a term of politics or finance. such as 商品的价值 the value of the product . if we want to show sb. is useless or can't help at all,we usually say 你真没用! and 你真没用 mostly shows our complaination and the doubtness about the person's ability .if a mom says 你真没用to his son who just got a poor mark,it means why can't u work hard ? but be careful when u use 你真没用 it's exthemily rude .and never say it to your boyfriend. the second situation is that 他一点儿价值也没有 for examble , if someone want to take advantage of the power or money of another one ,he paid a lot but get nothing he may complain about this to a friend: 他根本一点价值也没有!根本 means totally an other situation we say about 价值is that if you got a lv bag at a very low price ( of course it can't be a fake one] you are happy and exciting and may show this bag to ur friend ,you may say :看,我刚淘到的lv包包,才一千块,很值吧?then ur friends say :太值了! 我终于明白我的价值了 meas finally i know what i can contribute to . always you strugled and confused a lot before u got it
