Learn Mandarin Chinese on Netflix and iQIYI (iq.com) — without pausing, dictionary-hopping, or breaking immersion. MyMandarin Cinema turns every C-drama, Chinese film, wuxia series, donghua, and documentary on Netflix and iQIYI into a Mandarin lesson with dual Chinese subtitles, tone-aware pinyin, instant word lookup, and an AI Mandarin tutor that answers grammar questions in context.

Every word you save while watching syncs straight to your MyMandarin vocabulary garden and enters a spaced-repetition (SRS) review queue on the web and mobile app — so a Sunday-night binge becomes Monday-morning flashcards at scientifically-spaced intervals.

🎬 Chinese-First, Not Retrofitted
Most language-learning subtitle tools were designed for European languages and bolted onto Mandarin. MyMandarin Cinema is the opposite: built Chinese-first, with native support for simplified (简体) and traditional (繁體) characters, HSK 1 through HSK 6 word annotations, smart Chinese word segmentation, and tone-aware pinyin alignment that actually lines up with the characters above it.

📺 Built for Netflix AND iQIYI
Netflix carries a growing Chinese catalog, but iQIYI (iq.com) is where the C-drama, wuxia, xianxia, and donghua libraries truly live — thousands of native-Mandarin episodes most learning tools ignore. MyMandarin Cinema runs natively on both, so your subtitles, pinyin, word lookup, AI tutor, and saved vocabulary work identically whether you're on Netflix or iQIYI. Switch platforms, keep one vocabulary garden.

🔑 Features

Dual Chinese Subtitles + Pinyin
Three-line subtitle display on Netflix and iQIYI: Chinese characters, pinyin with tone marks, and English translation — perfectly aligned, never crowded. Toggle pinyin on or off per session. Switch between simplified and traditional characters with one click.

Instant One-Tap Chinese Dictionary
Click any character or word in the Netflix or iQIYI subtitles to get pinyin, English definition, HSK level, and example sentences — pulled in-context — without ever leaving the video player. Acts as an inline Chinese-English dictionary for every show.

AI Mandarin Tutor: Grammar, Vocab, Translation
Ask anything about the current line. "Why is 既然 used here?" "What's the difference between 都 and 也?" "Translate this sentence word by word." The AI tutor answers using the actual subtitle line as context, so grammar explanations are concrete rather than textbook-abstract. Handles HSK grammar, classical-leaning wuxia and xianxia phrasing, slang, and idioms — on both Netflix and iQIYI.

Save Chinese Vocabulary in One Click
Tap save on any word and it lands in your personal MyMandarin vocabulary garden — tagged by source show, with the original Netflix or iQIYI sentence attached as context for review. Builds your personal Chinese flashcard deck automatically as you watch.

Spaced Repetition System (SRS) That Lasts
Saved words automatically enter MyMandarin's SRS scheduler on web and mobile. The Chinese words you encountered while watching C-dramas on Sunday show up as flashcards on Monday — and again at the perfect interval to actually remember them. Word-stage highlights (seed → sprouting → active → mastered) appear right in the subtitle stream so you can see at a glance what your viewing is teaching you.

Shadowing & Pronunciation Practice
Auto-slow playback runs dialogue at ~0.8x and silence at ~1.25x — every tone comes through clearly without doubling your watch time. Press R to replay the current line, or enable pause-at-line-end so the video stops the instant each subtitle finishes, perfect for shadowing and repeating after the speaker.

Full Keyboard Shortcuts for Power Users
A / D jump previous / next subtitle line, Space toggles play, R replays, P toggles pinyin, E toggles English, [ and ] step playback speed, \ toggles Auto-Slow. The mouse never has to leave the show.

Sync Across Web, iOS & Android
Sign in once. Every Chinese word saved from Netflix or iQIYI is instantly available on mymandarin.org and the MyMandarin iOS / Android apps. Watch on your laptop, review on your phone during the commute.

🎯 Perfect For
• Beginners (HSK 1–2) who want comprehensible Mandarin input with pinyin training wheels
• Intermediate learners (HSK 3–4) ready to move beyond textbooks into real Chinese TV and film
• Advanced students (HSK 5–6) tackling native-speed C-dramas, wuxia, xianxia, and Chinese cinema
• Heritage learners reconnecting with Mandarin through the shows their family watches
• C-drama and donghua fans on iQIYI and Netflix who want the binge hours to count toward real fluency

❓ FAQ

Does MyMandarin Cinema work with traditional characters?
Yes — toggle simplified (简体) and traditional (繁體) at any time. Word lookup, pinyin, and the AI tutor all switch with you. Great for Taiwan dramas and Hong Kong cinema on Netflix and iQIYI.

What HSK levels are supported?
All of them — HSK 1, HSK 2, HSK 3, HSK 4, HSK 5, and HSK 6. Every word in the dictionary is annotated with its HSK level so you can prioritize the vocabulary that matters for your stage.

Do I need a Netflix or iQIYI subscription?
You need access to whichever platform you watch on. MyMandarin Cinema enhances the existing subtitle stream on Netflix and iQIYI (iq.com) — it does not provide or stream video content. Any plan with access to Chinese-language titles works.

Do I need a MyMandarin account?
A free MyMandarin account is required to save vocabulary and sync across devices. Sign-up is email-only. The Pro tier unlocks unlimited AI tutor queries and advanced vocabulary tools; the free tier includes a daily quota.

Will it support YouTube, Disney+, HBO Max, or Bilibili?
Today, MyMandarin Cinema works on Netflix and iQIYI (iq.com). Support for additional streaming platforms is on the roadmap.

Can I use it for shadowing or pronunciation practice?
Yes — auto-slow playback (separate speaking and silence rates), one-key line replay, and pause-at-line-end are built specifically for repeat-and-mimic shadowing without doubling your watch time.

Is my data private?
Yes. The extension only runs on Netflix, iQIYI, and MyMandarin domains. We never sell data, track browsing, or operate on any other site. Saved vocabulary and AI tutor queries go to your MyMandarin account over HTTPS. Full policy: mymandarin.org/privacy (see the "Browser Extension" section).
