Translation: Doctor Wang is American.

[ArpsTnd]

Now I know why 王医生不是中国人, he is actually American. I'm mindblown.

What does this character "人" mean?

[tjatwood42]

I think on its own it means "person" but in can also be applied to a country name to mean a person of that nationality.

美国 = America
美国人 = American

can i say : Wang is an American doctor . or not !

[MaxGonzale16]

That would probably be something like "王是美国医生." Your sentence makes sense, but not as a translation of this Chinese sentence.

Can anyone hear 不是 instead of 是? Can anyone kindly explain why the audio sounds wrong to me?

[pjtpjt]

Oh! I thought he was Chinese.

Proper English is: Doctor Wang is an American

[MaxGonzale16]

Not necessarily. Nationalities can be used as adjectives or nouns, so "Doctor Wang is an American" treats "American" as a noun (American person) while "Doctor Wang is American" treats it like an adjective (from America). Both are right.

[GregoryDon7]

The male voice in this sentence sounds like he changes the pronunciation of 医 to "he". Does anyone else hear that.

Should really accept Dr. Wang is American

[Brunovisc]

America is a CONTINENT just in case. Maybe you meant "United States of America", don't you?
