Do you know how to make an invitation in Chinese? |
You'll learn how in just a moment. |
Hi, my name is Fangfang, and this is Three Step Chinese by ChineseClass101.com. |
In this lesson, you'll learn how to make an invitation using the suggestion particle 吧 and the yes-no question pattern with 吗 through a quick conversation. |
Let's look at the dialogue. |
As you listen, pay attention to how they ask about the topic and how the other person responds. |
哇,房间真好。这里非常宽敞。而且风景也很美。(Wa, fángjiān zhēn hǎo. Zhèlǐ fēicháng kuānchǎng. Érqiě fēngjǐng yě hěn měi.) |
我们马上去游泳池,行吗?(Wǒmen mǎshàng qù yóuyǒngchí, xíng ma?) |
哎!我们能不能先休息一下?我想在房间里放松一下。(Āi! Wǒmen néng bù néng xiān xiūxi yíxià? Wǒ xiǎng zài fángjiān lǐ fàngsōng yíxià.) |
不,我们应该先去游泳池。走吧!(Bù, wǒmen yīnggāi xiān qù yóuyǒngchí. Zǒu ba!) |
Let's hear it with the English translation. |
哇,房间真好。这里非常宽敞。而且风景也很美。(Wa fángjiān zhēn hǎo. Zhèlǐ fēicháng kuānchǎng. Érqiě fēngjǐng yě hěn měi.) |
"Wow, the room is really nice. It's very spacious here. And the view is beautiful too." |
我们马上去游泳池,行吗?(Wǒmen mǎshàng qù yóuyǒngchí, xíng ma?) |
"Shall we go to the swimming pool right now?" |
哎!我们能不能先休息一下?我想在房间里放松一下。(Āi! Wǒmen néng bù néng xiān xiūxi yíxià? Wǒ xiǎng zài fángjiān lǐ fàngsōng yíxià.) |
"Sigh! Can we rest for a bit first? I'd like to relax in the room a little." |
Pay attention to the next sentence. It follows the key speaking pattern you'll learn later in this lesson. |
不,我们应该先去游泳池。走吧!(Bù, wǒmen yīnggāi xiān qù yóuyǒngchí. Zǒu ba!) |
"No, we should go to the swimming pool first. Let's go!" |
