369500	371500	Understand that there is no marker luh used here,
372500	374800	even though you're talking about a completed action.
375560	378140	It's often the case that a sentence using gung, just,
378500	380100	does not use a completed action luh.
380100	382100	I have a friend who has just come from America.
388100	390100	我有一个朋友刚从美国来。

432100	445100	The verb 教 is another verb which is either followed by a specific object such as 经济学, or a general object, in this case 书, repeat the expression to teach.
445100	450100	教书
450100	456100	How do you say she's teaching economics at Taiwan University right now?

479100	490100	给你们两位介绍介绍。
490100	497100	Notice that when you want to talk about making introductions, you use the prepositional verb 给 with the verb 介绍.
497100	501100	In a sense, you're saying that you want to perform an introduction for the two of them.
501100	504100	Repeat, I'd like very much to introduce the two of you.

584100	587100	Repeat, that's wonderful.
587100	595100	那太好了,那太好了。
595100	599100	Notice that this sentence is not translated as too good.
599100	606100	The word 太 is stronger than 恒, but does not include any connotations of overly or excessive here.
606100	611100	Now repeat the verb to wish, to hope to, or to look forward to.

679100	682100	吃个便饭。
682100	685100	How do you say simply to eat?
685100	688100	吃饭。

692100	694100	何必?
694100	698100	How do you say to teach?
698100	700100	教书。
700100	704100	What's the verb to introduce?
704100	706100	介绍。
706100	709100	Let's return to the conversation now.
709100	713100	Section Chief Huang was talking about meeting Mr. Franklin's friend.
713100	715100	那太好了。
715100	718100	我希望跟她谈谈。
718100	721100	不过恐怕我的英文不行。
721100	728100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
728100	731100	Repeat the adverb but or however。
731100	737100	不过。不过。
737100	743100	The adverb不过,like its counterpart, however, is usually seen at the beginning of sentences.
743100	747100	Now repeat the word for to be afraid that。
747100	754100	恐怕。恐怕。
754100	761100	To be afraid that may seem like an awkward translation, but there is another word which means simply to be afraid.
761100	766100	Repeat, however, I'm afraid that my English isn't good enough。
766100	774100	不过。恐怕我的英文不行。
774100	779100	不过。恐怕我的英文不行。
779100	789100	Try saying it ahead of the speaker, however, I'm afraid that my English isn't good enough。
789100	796100	不过。恐怕我的英文不行。
796100	807100	Again。不过。恐怕我的英文不行。
807100	817100	Now repeat, not only。不但。不但。
817100	827100	Repeat the phrase sometimes。有时候。有时候。
827100	834100	Now repeat the compound verb result can't understand, which is used to talk about oral conversations.
834100	843100	听不懂。听不懂。
843100	854100	As you remember, in the potential forms of compound verbs of result, the negative marker不 occurs between the action verb听 to listen and the verb showing result,懂 to understand.
854100	860100	How would you say can understand?
860100	864100	听得懂。
864100	876100	In addition to referring to what is possible, compound verbs of result can also refer to what actually happened. How would you say I understood?
876100	880100	我听懂了。
880100	885100	How would you say I didn't understand?
885100	889100	我没听懂。
889100	904100	Now if you were talking about something you're reading, you'd have to substitute the verb看 to read for the verb听 to listen. How would you say I can't understand in this context?
904100	908100	我看不懂。
908100	914100	How would you say I can't understand?
914100	918100	我看得懂。
918100	923100	How would you say I understood?
923100	927100	我看懂了。
927100	932100	How would you say I didn't understand?
932100	937100	我没看懂。
937100	944100	Now repeat the sentence. Not only don't I speak well, sometimes I can't understand what I hear either.
944100	953100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
953100	960100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
960100	970100	In a sentence when you're expressing an idea in terms of not only but also use不但 in the first part of the sentence and yeah in the second part of the sentence.
970100	976100	Repeat again. Not only don't I speak well, sometimes I can't understand what I hear either.
976100	985100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
985100	992100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
992100	1000100	Notice that while 不但 comes at the front of the phrase yeah still occurs in its usual position before the verb.
1000100	1010100	Now how do you say however I'm afraid that my English isn't good enough?
1010100	1015100	不过恐怕我的英文不行。
1015100	1028100	How do you say not only don't I speak well, sometimes I can't understand what I hear either.
1028100	1035100	不但说得不好,有时候也听不懂。
1035100	1038100	Mr. Franklin replied, listen.
1038100	1045100	哪里哪里,您说得跟美国人一样好。
1045100	1047100	Repeat the adverb equally.
1047100	1055100	一样。一样。
1055100	1058100	This adverb is used to compare things which are similar in some quality.
1058100	1064100	Repeat, this is as good as that, or more literally, this and that are equally good.
1064100	1071100	这个跟那个一样好。
1071100	1077100	这个跟那个一样好。
1077100	1085100	As with other sentences you've learned comparing two things, you use a prepositional verb, in this case gun, and an adjectival verb.
1085100	1095100	Here,一样, and好。How do you say this is as good as that?
1095100	1099100	这个跟那个一样好。
1099100	1102100	Now repeat, you speak as well as an American.
1102100	1109100	您说得跟美国人一样好。
1109100	1116100	您说得跟美国人一样好。
1116100	1119100	This sentence is actually a shortened version of the comparison.
1119100	1123100	When you're comparing how two people do things, the full sentence can be quite long.
1123100	1127100	Repeat, you speak as well as an American.
1127100	1138100	您说英文说得跟美国人说得一样好。
1138100	1145100	您说英文说得跟美国人说得一样好。
1145100	1151100	As with the prepositional verb be, the elements compared with gun may be nouns, pronouns, or phrases.
1151100	1161100	Now, using the short form again, how do you say you speak as well as an American?
1161100	1166100	您说得跟美国人一样好。
1166100	1176100	Again,您说得跟美国人一样好。
1176100	1180100	Mr. Franklin and Section Chief Huang conclude their conversation.
1180100	1184100	怎么样,六点半对您方便不方便?
1184100	1187100	方便,方便。
1187100	1190100	我没请什么人,很随便。
1190100	1193100	那就先谢了。
1193100	1205100	Repeat, I haven't invited anyone special.我没请什么人。
1205100	1210100	Here you see another example of an any phrase, but notice that the sentence has a unique meaning.
1210100	1214100	Instead of meaning anyone at all, the phrase means anyone special.
1214100	1222100	Repeat again, I haven't invited anyone special.我没请什么人。
1222100	1227100	I haven't invited anyone special.我没请什么人。
1227100	1240100	Now repeat the adjectival verb to be informal.随便。随便。
1240100	1246100	This is an often used expression meaning not only informal, but frequently meaning as you please.
1246100	1248100	Here of course it's used to describe the party.
1248100	1260100	Repeat, I haven't invited anyone special. It's very informal.我没请什么人,很随便。
1260100	1265100	我没请什么人,很随便。
1265100	1276100	Now repeat Section Chief Huang's reply. I'll thank you in advance then.那就先谢了。
1276100	1291100	How do you say I haven't invited anyone special?我没请什么人。
1291100	1298100	How do you say it's very informal?很随便。
1298100	1305100	How do you say, well, I'll thank you in advance then.
1305100	1309100	那就先谢了。
