<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] In lesson eleven we will look at the adverb 都 dōu &quot;all&quot;. It tells us that the situation it describes is true for the plural of the subject or object.</p>
<p>都 dōu &quot;all&quot; is only used after subjects and before verbs and adjectives.</p>
<p>&quot;11.01 Example sentences with the adverb &quot;都 &quot;dōu with noun and adjective complements&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:10.216cm;&quot;</p>
<p>我们都是留学生。 Wǒmen dōu shì liúxuéshēnɡ. We are all exchange students.</p>
<p>他们都是北京人。Tāmen dōu shì Běijīngrén. They are all Beijing people.</p>
<p>你们都忙吗？Nǐmen dōu máng ma? Are you all busy?</p>
<p>我们都很累。Wǒmen dōu hěn lèi. We are all very tired.</p>
<p>孩子们都饿了。Háizimen dōu è le. The children are all hungry.</p>
<p>孩子们都渴了。Háizimen dōu kě le. The children are all thirsty.</p>

<p>Notes: If 都 ''dōu'' is used together with other adverbs such as 很 ''hěn'' it should come before the other adverbs, as in 我们都很好。 ''Wǒmen dōu hěn hǎo.''</p>

<p>王先生很开心。李小姐也很开心。他们都很开心。 Wáng xiānsheng hěn kāixīn. Lǐ xiǎojiě yě hěn kāixīn. Tāmen dōu hěn kāixīn. Mr. Wang is very happy. Ms. Lee is also very happy. They are all very happy.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>It is not always necessary to add 都 ''dōun'' &quot;all&quot; to every sentence, but adding or omitting it changes the emphasis of the sentence. 我们都很兴奋 ''Wǒmen dōu hěn xīngfèn.'' emphasizes that both of us are excited, whereas 我们很兴奋 ''Wǒmen hěn xīngfèn.'' simply describes the state of being excited.</p>
<p>&quot;11.04 If you're happy and you know it... dialogue with the complements &quot;兴奋 &quot;xīngfèn excited and &quot;开心 &quot;kāixīn happy&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:9.661cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 你累吗？ Nǐ lèi ma?</p>
<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 我不累，我很兴奋！ Wǒ bú lèi, wǒ hěn xīngfèn!</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 真的吗？马特也很兴奋吗？ Zhēnde ma? Mǎtè yě hěn xīngfèn ma?</p>
<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 是的，我们都很兴奋，很开心。 Shìde, wǒmen dōu hěn xīngfèn, hěn kāixīn.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>Notice that in Chinese sentences when listing complements it is not required to use a conjunction. Sarah says that they are 很兴奋，很开心 hěn xīngfèn, hěn kāixīn &quot;excited and happy&quot; but there is no actual conjunction connecting &quot;excited&quot; and &quot;happy&quot; in the Chinese sentence. A direct translation of the sentence would be something like &quot;We are all very excited, very happy&quot; which, while possible in English, is not as standard as &quot;We are very excited and happy.&quot;</p>

<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] In lesson twelve we learn how to ask &quot;Where are you from?&quot; There are two different ways to do this - one construction is ''mainly'' used for Chinese people, and the emphasis is on what sort of person are you (a Chinese person, a Beijing person, etc.) The second construction is has a formal and informal variant, and that emphasis is on the ''location'' that you are from - i.e. I am from America, I am from China.</p>

<p>Notes:</p>
<p>你从哪里来？ Nǐ cóng nǎli lái？ could be translated as &quot;Where are you from?&quot; It could be considered non-standard because of the ambiguity of the question, since it can be taken to mean &quot;Where did you just come from?&quot;</p>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>从 ''cóng'' is a preposition, it means &quot;from&quot; in the sense of &quot;movement from a location&quot;, there is another Chinese verb for talking about distance without movement, 离 ''lí''. We will discuss this second preposition in a later lesson.</p>

<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] In lesson 13 we will cover the cardinal directions &quot;north&quot;, &quot;east&quot;, &quot;west&quot;, and &quot;south&quot; as well as &quot;central&quot; or &quot;middle&quot;.</p>
<p>We will also learn how to ask where in a country someone is from.</p>

</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>The cardinal directions are all used in place names that we have already covered or that should be familiar to us.</p>
<p>北 ''běi'', meaning &quot;north&quot; is used in the city name 北京 ''Běijīng'', meaning literally &quot;North Capital&quot;. Likewise, 南 ''nán''meaning &quot;south&quot; is used in the city name 南京 ''Nánjīng'', meaning &quot;South Capital&quot;.</p>
<p>The capital of Japan, 东京 ''Dōngjīng'' contains the character 东 ''dōng'' meaning &quot;East&quot;*, so likewise Tokyo literally translated means &quot;Eastern Capital&quot;.</p>
<p>西 ''xī'' means &quot;west&quot; and is used in the city name 西安 ''Xī'ān'' the famous home of the terracotta warriors.</p>
<p>Finally, 中国 ''Zhōngguó'' &quot;China&quot; itself contains the character 中 ''Zhōng'' meaning &quot;middle&quot;.</p>
<p>*The Kanji for &quot;Tokyo&quot; uses the traditional character 東 for east, so in Japan &quot;Tokyo&quot; is written 東京.</p>
<p>&quot;13.02 North or south, east or west...or the middle? - example sentences&quot;</p>

<p>安娜来自英国南部。Ānnà láizì Yīngguó nánbù. Anna is from the South of England.</p>
<p>马特来自美国中部。Mǎtè láizì Měiguó zhōngbù. Matt is from the American Midwest.</p>
<p>萨拉来自美国东部。Sàlā láizì Měiguó dōngbù。 Sarah is from the Eastern part of the USA.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>The pattern is (nation) (cardinal direction)+(area), with the nation acting as a modifier of the area. In English we use a somewhat similar pattern when talking about the American Midwest, but usually the pattern is the opposite, with the nation acting as the headword.</p>
<p>&quot;13.03 What part of the country are you from?&quot;</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>你从什么地方来? ''Nǐ cóng shénme dìfang lái''？ has two meanings, based on context. If it is the first time people meet each other, than it has roughly the same meaning as 你来自什么地方? ''Nǐ láizì shénme dìfāng?'' This sentence asks for the place, so the answer should be the name of place, as in 我从美国华盛顿来。''Wǒ cóng Měiguó Huáshèngdùn lái.''</p>
<p>However, if you are already know the other person, then 你从什么地方来? ''Nǐ cóng shénme dìfang lái''？ has the meaning, “Where did you come from (just now)?” For instance, if you just visited some place and your friend wants to know where you visited, they can ask 你从什么地方来? ''Nǐ cóng shénme dìfang lái''？ to get the answer.</p>
<p>In English, this question lacks ambiguity due to the differences in verb tense used – present simple connotes a question about your permanent identity, whereas the simple past connotes an inquiry into your recent activities.</p>

</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>你是美国什么地方人？''Nǐ shì Měiguó shénme dìfang rén?'' From point of view of grammar, this is a predicate adjective sentence. The emphasis in the sentence is on the person, with the place modifying the individual's identity. Since this sentence asks about a person, so the answer should add 人 ''rén'', as in 我是美国华盛顿人。 ''Wǒ shì Měiguó Huáshèngdùn rén.'' But normally people just answer with the place, like 华盛顿 ''Huáshèngdùn''.</p>

<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] In the lesson 15 we will look at a new question word, the interrogative pronoun 谁 shéi &quot;who&quot;.</p>
<p>We will also go over the possessive pronouns, and begin to learn how we can define relationships between people. In this lesson we will also cover several different kinds of friendship.</p>
<p>&quot;15.01 Who are you? &quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:5.798cm;&quot;</p>
<p>你是谁？ Nǐ shì shéi？ Who are you?</p>
<p>他是谁？Tā shì shéi？ Who is he?</p>

<p>他们是谁？Tāmen shì shéi？ Who are they?</p>

</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Pronunciation point:</p>
<p>''shéi'' is the typical pronunciation of 谁. There is another pronunciation for this word, ''shuí'' which you may see in textbooks, but nobody ever pronounces it that way. Well, almost nobody. Sadistically enough, Chinese speakers may use this less common pronunciation when addressing you, precisely because it is the pronunciation you see (or saw) in textbooks.</p>
<p>&quot;15.02 Yes, and who are you? - Concept review dialogue&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:11.804cm;&quot;</p>

<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 您是老师吗？ Nín shì lǎoshī ma?</p>
<p>align=right 王老师&quot;:&quot; 是。你是谁？ Shì. Nǐ shì shéi？</p>

<p>&quot;15.03 My, Hers, His, Theirs, Yours, etc. - Table of Possessive Adjectives&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:5.853cm;&quot;</p>

<p>[http://MP3/E101503.mp3 Listen to the MP3 (right click to save)]</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>The Mandarin Chinese equivalent of the possessive pronoun is made by taking a pronoun and attaching the particle 的 ''de'' to it.</p>
<p>的 ''de'' has no meaning by itself, but instead creates a relationship between two words. Generally speaking, 的 ''de''makes the word that comes before it define the word that comes after it in some way.</p>
<p>When used to create possessive adjectives (and pronouns), 的 ''de'' indicates that the pronoun (我，你，她 etc.) will alter the identity of another word, specifically by claiming some kind of possession over it.</p>
<p>When talking about possession, we can think of 的 ''de'' as being similar to the apostrophe + s in English - Matt's book, Sarah's pen.</p>
<p>&quot;15.04 What's the name of your company? - Concept review dialogue&quot;</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes: Of course, strictly speaking &quot;Your teacher is who?&quot; is not correct English; however, such a construction is perfectly OK in Mandarin Chinese. If you remember from lesson 7, where we looked at 哪 ''nǎ'' &quot;which&quot;, the interrogative pronoun occupies the same place in a sentence that the answer does.</p>
<p>&quot;15.06 Friends&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:9.213cm;&quot;</p>
<p>朋友 péngyou friend 男朋友 nánpéngyou boyfriend 女朋友 nǚpéngyou girlfriend</p>
<p>新朋友 xīn péngyou new friend 老朋友 lǎo péngyou old friend 好朋友 hǎo péngyou good friend</p>

<blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>[http://MP3/E101506.mp3 Listen to the MP3 (right click to save)]</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Notes: In cases where adjectives are single syllables there is no need to add the particle 的 ''de ''between the adjective and the noun it is modifying, 好朋友 ''hǎo péngyou'' &quot;good friend&quot;.Likewise, when a noun is used to modify another noun, 中国朋友 ''Zhōngguó péngyou &quot;''Chinese friend&quot;, 外国朋友 ''wàiguó péngyǒu &quot;''foreign friend&quot;, there is no need to add the particle 的 ''de''.</p>
<p>&quot;15.07 He and I are friends - comparison of sentence structure.&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:12.571cm;&quot;</p>
<p>我和他是朋友。 Wǒ hé tā shì péngyou. He and I are friends. 他是我的朋友。 Tā shì wǒ de péngyou. He is my friend.</p>
<p>他和马特是老朋友。 Tā hé Mǎtè shì lǎo péngyou. He and Matt are friends. 马特是他的老朋友。 Mǎtè shì tā de lǎo péngyou. Matt is his old friend.</p>
<p>萨拉和王军是新朋友。 Sàlā hé Wáng Jūn shì xīn péngyou Sarah and Wang Jun are new friends. 萨拉是王军的新朋友。 Sàlā shì Wáng Jūn de xīn péngyou Sarah is Wang Jun's new friend.</p>
<p>Notes: 的 ''de ''can likewise be added after names to indicate possession. As with possessive pronouns, it follows the pattern: (possessor) 的 ''de ''(possessed).</p>
<p>&quot;15.08 Please enter! Please sit!&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:10.666cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 这是王老师，这是我的外国朋友。 Zhè shì Wáng lǎoshī, zhè shì wǒ de wàiguó péngyou.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 王老师，您好！ Wáng lǎoshī, nín hǎo!</p>
<p>align=right 王老师&quot;:&quot; 你好！ 请进！请坐！ Nǐ hǎo! Qǐnɡ jìn! Qǐng zuò!</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 谢谢！ Xièxie!</p>
<p>align=right 王老师&quot;:&quot; 不客气！ Búkèqi!</p>
<p>Notes: 请进! ''Qǐnɡ jìn!'' and 请坐! ''Qǐng zuò!'' are often the first things you hear when visiting a person's home, office, restaurant, etc. 进 jìn means &quot;enter&quot; and 坐 ''zuò'' means &quot;sit&quot;. 请 ''Qǐnɡ'', meaning &quot;please&quot;, is added before the verbs to convey a feeling of hospitality and warmth.</p>
<p>The verb 坐 ''zuò'' &quot;sit&quot; is used for myriad purposes that its English counterpart is not, and we will be looking at it again more closely. Likewise, 请 ''Qǐnɡ'' has connotations and uses that the English equivalent &quot;please&quot; does not have - 请 ''Qǐnɡ'' can be used when inviting someone out, or when offering to treat the other person to a meal, as well as when instructing a superior on procedure.</p>
<p>&quot;15.09 Do you know his name?&quot;</p>

<p>align=right 安娜&quot;:&quot; 我很累。好，再见！ Wǒ hěn lèi. Hǎo, zàijiàn!</p>
<p>align=right 王冬梅&quot;:&quot; 再见！ Zàijiàn!</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>Adding 一下 ''yíxià'' after a verb conveys the idea of brevity or informality. Thus, 我们认识一下 ''Wǒmen rènshi yíxià''could be translated as &quot;Let's get to know each other a little bit&quot;. 我问一下 ''Wǒ wèn yíxià'' could be translated as &quot;I'll go and quickly ask (her).&quot; However, in both cases a translator could omit the diminutive element from the translation.</p>
<p>The important idea here is that the speaker does not intend to take up too much of the other person's time, or to stand on ceremony. The attitude is of friendly respect without too much ostentation. However, do be aware that in formal situations it could come across as being a bit cavalier.</p>

</blockquote>
</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>Unlike in English, there are separate terms for older and younger siblings. Younger siblings usually refer to their older siblings by their family position, not their name. There are also separate terms for maternal and paternal family members, which we will look at later.</p>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>妈妈 ''māma'' &quot;mother&quot;, 姐姐 ''jiějie'' &quot;older sister&quot;, 妹妹 ''mèimèi'' &quot;younger sister&quot; all share the same root character, or radical, 女 ''nǚ'' which means &quot;female&quot;.</p>
<p>好 ''hǎo'' &quot;good&quot; and 她 ''tā'' &quot;she&quot; also share this root character.</p>
<p>&quot;19.02 How's your Mom and Dad?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:7.915cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 萨拉&quot;:&quot; 王军，你好！ Wáng Jūn，nǐ hǎo！</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 你好！ Nǐ hǎo!</p>
<p>align=right 萨拉&quot;:&quot; 你爸爸，妈妈身体好吗？ Nǐ bàbɑ，māma shēntǐ hǎo ma?</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 他们都很好，谢谢。 Tāmen dōu hěn hǎo, xièxie.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>If there is a close relationship between the possessor and the possessed, 的 ''de ''is usually not used. It should be noted here if that if 的 ''de ''is used in a relationship that is presumably close, it indicates a degree of estrangement.</p>
<p>&quot;19.03 My Dad's from the Northeast&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:11.116cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 你爸爸是北方人吗？ Nǐ bàbɑ shì Běifāngrén ma？</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 是啊。他是东北人， 他来自哈尔滨。 Shì a. Tā shì Dōngběirén, tā láizì Hàěrbīn.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 你妈妈也是东北人吗? Nǐ māma yě shì Dōngběirén ma?</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 不是，她是南方人。 Bú shì, tā shì Nánfāngrén.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>东北 ''Dōngběi'' is a region of China famous among students of Mandarin Chinese for having arguably the most standard pronunciation of any area in the country.</p>
<p>''Dōng'' means &quot;east&quot; and 北 ''Běi'' means &quot;north&quot;, altogether the region consists of the three provinces northeast of the Great Wall that were until the 19th century off limits to Han Chinese. Consequently, many of the major urban areas in the region are quite new, most being around 100 years old.</p>

<p>Notes:</p>
<p>母亲 ''mǔqīn'' and 父亲 ''fùqīn'' are the formal words for &quot;mother&quot; and &quot;father&quot;, the first character from each combine to make the plural &quot;parents&quot; 父母 ''fùmǔ'' . The character 亲 ''qīn'' indicates family relation.</p>

<p>Notes:</p>
<p>The negation for the verb 有 ''yǒu'' is 没 ''méi''. In Chinese some verbs use the negation 没 ''méi'' while others use 不 ''bù'', there is no real rule as to which verbs use which negation, so you must simply memorize which uses which.</p>

<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 我有一个姐姐。 Wǒ yǒu yí gè jiějie.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>个 ''gè'' is the first &quot;counter word&quot; or &quot;classifier&quot; that we will learn, and it is the one most commonly used.</p>
<p>What is a counter word, you ask? Well, remember how we said that Chinese nouns don't change forms for singular or plural? In effect, that means every noun in Chinese is the equivalent of a collective noun in English, such as &quot;water&quot; or &quot;rice&quot;. Just as we would say &quot;a ''bottle'' of water&quot; or &quot;a ''bowl'' of rice&quot;, we need to put a classifier in front of a Chinese noun when enumerating it. There are numerous counter words in Chinese, but the basic, nearly all-purpose one is 个 ''gè''. We will be slowly learning several counter words throughout the course, and lesson 41 we will summarize the counter words that are the most commonly used.</p>

<p>Notes:</p>
<p>这 ''zhè'' and 那 ''nà'' are demonstrative pronouns, which means that they point out where something is. 这 ''zhè ''means &quot;this&quot; and 那 ''nà'' means &quot;that&quot;.</p>
<p>Pronunciation point:</p>
<p>You should be careful not to confuse 那 ''nà'' with the interrogative pronoun 哪 ''nǎ''. 那 ''nà'' has a fourth tone falling sound, which sounds commanding or even angry to English speakers. ''nǎ'' has the falling and then rising third tone, which to English speakers sounds a bit like someone who is mildly incredulous of something.</p>

<p>&quot;22.07 Sentences with possessive pronouns&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:12.28cm;&quot;</p>
<p>这本书是我的。 Zhè běn shū shì wǒ de. This book is mine.</p>

<p>这本杂志是他的。Zhè běn zázhì shì tā de. This magazine is his.</p>
<p>那份报纸是张老师的。Nà fèn bàozhǐ shì Zhāng Lǎoshī de. That newspaper is Zhang teacher's.</p>
<p>Pronunciation point:</p>
<p>这 ''Zhè'' and 那 ''nà'' is the pronunciation you typically find in textbooks, but sometimes they may be pronounced as ''zhèi'' and ''nèi'', respectively. This pronunciation is only used when the words are specifying which is which, as in &quot;Which book out of all of these are Anna's? - ''This'' one.&quot;</p>
<p>''Zhèi'' and ''nèi'' is considered to be less standard pronunciation, so there's no reason to worry about it too muc 去 h. If you are living in China and in a region where ''zhèi'' and ''nèi'' are being used you will probably pick them up instinctually, the way one picks up slang. Otherwise, you can never go wrong saying ''Zhè'' and ''nà''.</p>

<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] This lesson focuses on using nouns as complements for other nouns and on continuing to describe relationships between people and objects.</p>
<p>Our ability to ask questions has greatly increased in a relatively small number of lessons. The Chinese language gives quite a bit of latitude, which is both a blessing and a curse. The upside is you can quickly grasp most grammatical structures and use them more or less fluently right away. The downside is it sometimes f<span style="background-color:#ffffff;">eels like there are 1001 ways to say the same thing.</p>

<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:11.116cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 陈大同&quot;:&quot; 安娜 ，这是谁的书？是你的书吗？ Ānnà, zhè shì shéi de shū? Shì nǐ de shū ma?</p>

<p>align=right 安娜&quot;:&quot; 我不知道。 Wǒ bù zhīdào.</p>
<p>&quot;23.04 &quot;</p>

<p>align=right 李雪&quot;:&quot; 那个呢？ Nà ge ne?</p>
<p>align=right 王军&quot;:&quot; 我室友的。 Wǒ shìyǒu de.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>The head noun can be left out if it is understood what is being referred to, this is a form of ellipsis. It is understood in the question 那个呢？ ''Nà ge ne?'' the 那个 ''Nà g''e refers to 那个书包 ''Nà ge shūbāo'', so there is no need to restate the noun for a second time.</p>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>书包 ''shūbāo'' means &quot;bookbag&quot;. The word is made exactly the same as in English, by joining the word 书 ''shū'' &quot;book&quot;to 包 ''bāo'' &quot;bag&quot;.</p>
<p>23.06 What kind of map is this?</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:7.915cm;&quot;</p>

<p>[hhttp://www.chinahush.com/ China Hush] In this lesson we will learn how to ask where something or someone is.</p>
<p>&quot;25.01 Here, there, where?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:5.824cm;&quot;</p>
<p>在哪里？ Zài nǎlǐ? Where is it at? 在哪儿？ Zài nǎr? Where's it at?</p>
<p>在这里。 Zài zhèlǐ. It is here. 在这儿。 Zài zhèr. It's here.</p>
<p>在那里。 Zài nàlǐ It is there. 在那儿。 Zài nàr. It's there.</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>The question word 哪儿 ''nǎr'' and 哪里 ''nǎlǐ'' have the exact same meaning, it is just that 哪儿 ''nǎr'' is used (extensively) in the north of China. The meaning and use of the two words is the same. It corresponds to the location words 那儿 ''nàr'' ( 哪里 ''nǎlǐ)'' and 这儿 ''zhèr'' ( 这里 ''zhèlǐ'' ).</p>
<p>In the case of all six words, the 里 ''lǐ'' sound has morphed into the 儿 sound. To put it another way, people in Beijing all sound like pirates.</p>
<p>Pronunciation point:</p>
<p>You might be wondering why we have used what could be considered a deviant pronunciation so extensively in our text. The first is that the 儿 sound has official recognition within the PRC and is actually used in most beginner's textbooks for students studying in the North of China. Secondly, the 儿 sound, due to its connection with Beijing and the centers of Mandarin speaking, could well be considered a &quot;prestige&quot; dialect. Finally, and most importantly, we think it sounds cool.</p>
<p>&quot;25.02 A toilet by any other name...?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:9.158cm;&quot;</p>
<p>厕所在哪儿？ Cèsuǒ zài nǎr? Where's the toilet? 厕所在哪里？ Cèsuǒ zài nǎlǐ? Where is the toilet?</p>
<p>公厕在哪儿？ Gōngcè zài nǎr? Where's the public toilet? 公厕在哪里？ Gōngcè zài nǎlǐ? Where is the public toilet?</p>
<p>洗手间在哪儿？ Xíshǒujiān zài nǎr? Where's the washroom? 洗手间在哪里？ Xíshǒujiān zài nǎlǐ? Where is the washroom?</p>
<p>卫生间在哪儿？ Wèishēngjiān zài nǎr? Where's the bathroom? 卫生间在哪里？ Wèishēngjiān zài nǎlǐ? Where is the bathroom?</p>

</blockquote>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>Although 在 ''zài'' can be translated as &quot;be&quot;, in Mandarin Chinese its usage and meaning is distinct from the other word for &quot;be&quot;, 是 ''shì''. 在 ''zài'' is used to indicate location in space and time, whereas 是 ''shì'' is used to indicate identity.</p>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>厕所 ''cèsuǒ'' is definitely the cruder of the terms available for the, um, well ''facilities'' as it were. 洗手间 ''xíshǒujiān'' is the prettiest of the terms available, it literally means &quot;place where you may wash your hands&quot;.</p>
<p>&quot;25.03 Where's the john?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:5.586cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 这儿有厕所吗？ Zhèr yǒu cèsuǒ ma?</p>
<p>align=right &quot;B:&quot; 有，在那儿。 Yǒu, zài nàr.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 谢谢。 Xièxie.</p>
<p>align=right &quot;B&quot;： 不客气。 Bú kèqi.</p>
<p>&quot;25.04 Pardon me, where's the washroom?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:7.332cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 大卫&quot;:&quot; 请问，洗手间在哪儿？ Qǐngwèn, xíshǒujiān zài nǎr?</p>
<p>align=right &quot;B:&quot; 就在那儿。 Jiù zài nàr.</p>
<p>align=right 大卫&quot;:&quot; 谢谢。 Xièxie.</p>
<p>align=right &quot;B:&quot; 不客气。 Bú kèqi.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>就 ''jiù'' is an adverb, generally speaking it specifies the exactness of something. When used when talking about directions, it conveys the feeling of &quot;''right'' here&quot; or &quot;''right'' there&quot;.</p>
<p>&quot;25.05 Is Teacher Liu at school?&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:10.878cm;&quot;</p>

<p>align=right 叫刘： 当然是！ Dāngrán shì！</p>
<p>align=right 李智慧： 你真可爱！你叫什么名字？ Nǐ zhēn kě'ài! Nǐ jiào shénme míngzì?</p>
<p>align=right 刘丹： 我叫刘丹。请进！ Wǒ jiào Liú Dān. Qǐnɡ jìn!</p>
<p>align=right 李智慧： 谢谢！ Xièxie!</p>
<p>&quot;25.07 I don't know anyone here.&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:11.328cm;&quot;</p>
<p>这里... Zhèlǐ ... ...here.</p>
<p>这里我...Zhèlǐ wǒ... I...here.</p>
<p>这里我一个人...Zhèlǐ wǒ yí gè rén .... I...one here.</p>

<p>Notes:</p>
<p>咱们 ''zánmen'' is called an &quot;inclusive pronoun&quot;, it means &quot;we&quot; in the sense of &quot;including you, the person with whom I am speaking&quot;. It is used often in the Northern dialects of Chinese. Using 咱们 ''zánmen'' correctly will give your speech an authentic feel if you are in Northern China.</p>
<p>我们 ''wǒmen'' has both an inclusive &quot;me and you&quot; and exclusive &quot;us without you&quot; meaning. When all else fails, use 我们 ''wǒmen.''</p>
<p>Grammar geeks should note that 咱们 ''zánmen'' can not be an object of a verb, it can only be used as the subject of a sentence.</p>

<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 莎拉, 星期六你有安排吗？ Shālā，xīngqīliù nǐ yǒu ānpái ma?</p>
<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 星期六？星期六是几号？ Xīngqīliù？ Xīngqīliù shì jǐ hào？</p>

<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 是吗？八月一号是我朋友的生日。 Shì ma? Bāyuè yī hào shì wǒ péngyou de shēngrì.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 啊，我说错了。星期六不是八月一号，星期日是八月一号。 A, wǒ shuō cuò le. Xīngqīliù bú shì bāyuè yī hào, xīngqīrì shì bāyuè yī hào.</p>
<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 那星期六我没有事。 Nà xīngqīliù wǒ méi yǒu shì.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 好，我们见面吧。 Hǎo, wǒmen jiànmiàn ba.</p>
<p>align=right 莎拉&quot;:&quot; 行。 Xíng.</p>
<p>&quot;46.02&quot;</p>
<p>style=&quot;border-spacing:0;width:11.804cm;&quot;</p>
<p>align=right 刘小芳&quot;:&quot; 马特，你的生日是几月几号？ Mǎtè, nǐ de shēngrì shì jǐ yuè jǐ hào?</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 我的生日七月二十三好。你的生日呢？ Wǒ de shēngrì qīyuè èrshí sānhǎo. Nǐ de shēngrì ne?</p>
<p>align=right 刘小芳&quot;:&quot; 五月十一号。 Wǔyuè shíyī hào.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 你姐姐呢？ Nǐ jiějie ne?</p>
<p>align=right 刘小芳&quot;:&quot; 也是五月十一号。 Yě shì wǔyuè shíyī hào.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 是吗？你骗我！ Shì ma? Nǐ piàn wǒ!</p>
<p>align=right 刘小芳&quot;:&quot; 我没骗你！我们是双胞胎。 Wǒ méi piàn nǐ! Wǒmen shì shuāngbāotāi.</p>
<p>align=right 马特&quot;:&quot; 那她是不是你的姐姐? Nà tā shì bú shì nǐ de jiějie?</p>
<p>align=right 刘小芳&quot;:&quot; 是。她先出生了。 Shì. Tā xiān chūshēng le.</p>
<p>Notes:</p>
<p>双胞胎 ''shuāngbāotāi'' means &quot;twin&quot;. In Chinese culture, the first twin to be born is still considered to be the older sibling. 刘小芳 clears up Matt's confusion by stating that she was born first, using the adverb 先 ''xiān &quot;''first&quot;.</p>
<p>Vocabulary point:</p>
<p>出生 ''chūshēng'' means &quot;to be born&quot;. It is comprised of two characters, 出 ''chū'' &quot;to come out&quot;and 生 ''shēng'' &quot;life&quot;.</p>

<p>align=right 陈大同&quot;:&quot; 我忙死了。 你呢？你忙不忙？ Wǒ máng sǐ le. Nǐ ne? Nǐ máng bù máng?</p>
<p>align=right 安娜&quot;:&quot; 不太忙。 Bú tài máng.</p>
