What does freedom mean to you? | Easy Taiwanese Mandarin 12

Hello everyone, we are Easy Taiwanese Mandarin. I'm today's host, Emma. Today we are going to talk about the theme of freedom. This is a theme that we, Easy Language, have recorded together. So if you're interested, after watching today's video, you can also click on other languages' videos to compare. Let's go! When you think of freedom, what three names do you think of? Three? Freedom of expression. Democracy and freedom. Life. Freedom of speech. Freedom of communication. Freedom of speech. Happiness. Freedom of expression. Freedom of speech. What do you think the definition of freedom is? There is no restriction. You can do whatever you want. You don't have to follow so many rules. No one can force me to do what I don't like. It can make me feel happy from the bottom of my heart. No matter what other people think, but I have my own thoughts. I want to do what I want to do. I think what is right is the so-called freedom. We can do what we want without infringing on other people's freedom. It's an old saying, but it's like the air. Maybe you don't usually feel that you are enjoying freedom, but when your freedom is restricted, you will find that you used to live under the shelter of freedom. Do you think you are free now? I think I am free within my ability. I am quite free. It's okay. It's just that my family is strict. I am not very free now. Because my mom treats me like a child. In Taiwan, this land is considered free. Yes. The heart is free. In our social culture, Malaysia is quite free. Do you think your freedom has been restricted? Of course it has. It's the restriction of my parents. And there are some rules in school. When I go to work, I have to stay in the office. I can't go out. So my freedom is restricted. And when I was in the military, I was locked in the military camp. It's also restricted. When I was in school, the students had to stay in a certain space. In the early days, the teachers were more restricted. So many things were restricted. When I was a student, I was more restricted in my thoughts and actions. Yes. I was restricted in my thoughts. When I was in the mainland, I felt like I was being watched. So when I came back, I realized how precious it was. When do you feel most free? When I'm at home. When I'm at home after work. Or when it's a holiday. I can come out and relax. That's when I feel most free. I think it's when I'm alone. Because even if there's another person, it's your family. But I think it's more or less like, you can't do this or that. Because I do my own work. And I don't have time restrictions. I like to do more work every day. I can do it. And I like to rest. I can also rest. So right now, my work and my life are very flexible and free. When I got off the plane in Taiwan, when I stepped into the airport gate, I saw a sign at the airport that said, welcome home. That's when I felt free. Just like now, we're very free when we go shopping. Yeah, no one cares about us. No one will monitor your every move. There's no face recognition system When I'm single. This is also when I'm single. Of course, I'm very free. And when I'm alone. When I'm traveling alone, I feel pretty free. Why? Because I don't have other people's restrictions. And I don't have friends' opinions. You can go wherever you want. You can do whatever you want. You can eat whatever you want. You don't have to care about other people's opinions. I feel most free when I'm reading. Why? Because when you're reading, you're not restricted in the world of books. The way you think, the way you think, no one will restrict you. When I grow up, I feel very free Do you have any situation where you feel you can sacrifice your freedom? Sacrifice my freedom? National security. For my family? Yeah. When my family is threatened, I might have to sacrifice my freedom in exchange for more freedom in the future. Maybe when I realize my freedom will harm other people's freedom. For the sake of the group. When there's a problem at home, maybe to make money, I'll raise my family. Then I can sacrifice my freedom at this time. For example, I'm a Christian. I don't like to discuss a lot of things. But for the sake of our religion, I won't restrict myself. Maybe I'll make other sacrifices. Then everyone will be more peaceful. When can I sacrifice my freedom? After marriage. This is a sensitive topic. If you can do one thing freely, what would you like to do? Shout out loud. When there's no one around, when there's no one around, I'll do something that I find embarrassing. Traveling. I like to travel. I can see a lot of different world cultures. I can learn a lot of different customs. I can go out and see a lot of things. I can learn a lot of things. I won't live in a box. I'll get a job. Then I'll travel. You can travel freely now. Will I go back tomorrow? Dancer. She likes to dance. Just like this. I'll do whatever I want. What do you want to do next? I'll be single. You have two kids. How can you be single? It's good to be able to travel freely. How can you be more free? Enjoy the moment. Do what you like. Enjoy your time and space. That's freedom. Make more money. Well said. As long as you do what you want to do, you'll be free. What are the consequences of too much freedom? Too much freedom. If you know the definition of freedom, you know that your freedom can't oppress other people's rights. I don't think too much freedom is bad. No. Don't try to restrict her. The more you restrict her, the more trouble you'll get. Don't restrict her. The law of nature will let them be controlled. What do you think freedom is? After the previous question, I think freedom is finding the freedom I want in the many things The circle may be so small, but I can wander around in it. I don't have to go out. But I'll be restricted to find my own freedom. The most important thing. I think Taiwan's freedom is hard to come by. It's brought by the blood, sweat and tears If you want to explain what freedom is to children, how would you explain it? I would tell them that the premise of freedom is discipline. You have to be able to realize that you don't want to affect others. You have to be polite. That's how you can have your freedom. You have to respect others. If you don't respect others, you'll get in their way. Thank you. That's all for today. Thank you.
