The following footage is a pronunciation and language fluency demonstration. My Chinese is still far from the level I want it to be, However I have decided to make this recording so I can use it in the near future as a basis of comparison, in order to see my own progress toward professional language proficency. Since speaking at a fast pace is part of the demonstration, you will find the translation into English in the description below, as matching the fast speaking would have been rather meaningless since there is no time to read. Nontheless You will find Chinese characters at the bottom of the video. Translation "Hello, my name is Raphael" "It's a pleasure to meet you" "I am Italian but I study Chinese" "Today we will study Li Bai" (Chinese poet name) "Li Bai is my favourite Chinese poet" "I like (the poem) thinking on a quiet night" (Jing Ye si) Translation of the poem 床前明月光 Chuáng qián míng yuè guāng [bed] [front] [bright] [moon] [light] Bright moonlight before my bed 疑是地上霜 Yí shì dìshàng shuāng [suspect] [is] [ground] [on] [frost] It seams (there is) frost on the ground 舉頭望明月 Jǔ tóu wàng míng yuè [raise] [head] [gaze at] [bright] [moon] I raise my head to gaze at the bright moon 低頭思故鄉 Dītóu sī gùxiāng [lower] [head] [think of] [old] [home town] then lower it, thinking of my home town Traduzione in Italiano del poema di Li Bai 床前明月光 Chuáng qián míng yuè guāng [letto] [davanti] [luminosa] [luna] [luce] La luce lunare risplende davanti al mio letto 疑是地上霜 Yí shì dìshàng shuāng [sospetto] [è] [suolo] [sopra] [ghiaccio] Sembra essere ghiaccio sopra il terreno 舉頭望明月 Jǔ tóu wàng míng yuè [alzare] [testa] [guardo] [luminosa] [luna] Alzo il capo per osservare la luna 低頭思故鄉 Dītóu sī gùxiāng [abbassare] [testa] [penso] [vecchio] [villaggio d'origine] chino il capo pensando alla mia terra natia. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PO-K7SaW568

The Roman empire expanded to become one of the largest empires in the ancient world, though still ruled from the city, with an estimated 50 to 90 million inhabitants and covering 5.0 million square kilometres at its height in AD 117. Ancient Roman civilisation has contributed to modern government, law, politics, engineering, art, literature, architecture, technology, warfare, religion, language and society. Rome professionalised and expanded its military and created a system of government called res publica, the inspiration for modern republics such as the United States and France. It achieved impressive technological and architectural feats, such as the construction of an extensive system of aqueducts and roads, as well as the construction of large monuments, palaces, and public facilities. By the end of the Republic (27 BC), Rome had conquered the lands around the Mediterranean and beyond: its domain extended from the Atlantic to Arabia and from the mouth of the Rhine to North Africa. The Roman Empire emerged with the end of the Republic and the dictatorship of Augustus Caesar. 721 years of Roman-Persian Wars started in 92 BC with their first war against Parthia. It would become the longest conflict in human history, and have major lasting effects and consequences for both empires. Under Trajan, the Empire reached its territorial peak. Republican mores and traditions started to decline during the imperial period, with civil wars becoming a prelude common to the rise of a new emperor.
