Passive Sentences in Chinese + MBTI Culture Among Young People | HSK 2

Why are so many young people in China suddenly talking about being an “i person” or an “e person”? In this episode, you’ll learn how to form passive sentences using 被 (bèi), 叫 (jiào), and 让 (ràng) — essential for talking about things that happen to you, being asked to do something, or being affected by someone else.

At the same time, we explore a major trend in China: MBTI personality culture. Learn why four letters are influencing friendships, relationships, and daily conversations.

What You’ll Learn:
✅ How to use 被 (bèi) in passive sentences
✅ How to use 叫 (jiào) to express being told or made to do something
✅ How to use 让 (ràng) naturally in spoken Chinese
✅ Sentence structure: Subject + 被 / 叫 / 让 + Person + Action
✅ Key differences:
被 = standard passive, often negative
叫 = more spoken and direct
让 = most natural and common in daily life

Practice Challenge:
Try creating your own sentence using 被, 叫, or 让 and post it in the comments!
