| Let’s look at some more examples. |
| Listen and repeat or speak along with the native speakers. |
| 我的邮箱地址是karen@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de yóuxiāng dìzhǐ shì kēi - ēi - ǎr - yī - ēn àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| 我的邮箱地址是liping@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de yóuxiāng dìzhǐ shì áilou - āi - pī - āi - ēn - jì àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| 我的邮箱地址是 ben@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de yóuxiāng dìzhǐ shì bī - yī - ēn àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| 我的邮箱地址是 lin@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de yóuxiāng dìzhǐ shì áilou - āi - ēn àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| 我的电子邮箱是yl@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de diànzi yóuxiāng shì wāi - áilou àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| Did you notice how I gave my e-mail address? |
| 我的电子邮箱是yl@innolang.com。 |
| (Wǒ de diànzi yóuxiāng shì wāi - áilou àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu.) |
| "My e-mail is yl@innolang.com." |
| Instead of 邮箱地址 (yóuxiāng dìzhǐ), the speaker said 电子邮箱 (diànzǐ yóuxiāng), which literally means "electronic mailbox," but translates as "e-mail." 电子邮箱. |
| The pattern is: |
| 我的电子邮箱是 (Wǒ de diànzǐ yóuxiāng shì) {E-MAIL ADDRESS}。 |
| "My e-mail is {E-MAIL ADDRESS}." |
| 我的电子邮箱是 {E-MAIL ADDRESS}。 |
| This can be shortened even further: wāi - áilou àite yīnnōulàn diǎn kàngmu. |
| The entire first part 我的电子邮箱是 (Wǒ de diànzǐ yóuxiāng shì) "my e-mail is" is omitted here because it's clear from the context the speaker is giving their e-mail. |
| This is the shortest answer to a request to get your e-mail address. |
| You should be aware of this sentence pattern, but for this lesson, we use the pattern: |
| 我的邮箱地址是 (Wǒ de yóuxiāng dìzhǐ shì){E-MAIL ADDRES}。 |
| "My e-mail address is {E-MAIL ADDRES}." |
