Do you know how to talk about future actions 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 talk about future actions, like saying what you will do during the summer, 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.
谢谢你的食物!好好吃。(Xièxie nǐ de shíwù! Hǎohǎo chī.)
不用谢。丽莎,你暑假会做什么?(Bùyòng xiè. Lìshā, nǐ shǔjià huì zuò shénme?)
我和一些朋友会去青岛。(Wǒ hé yìxiē péngyǒu huì qù Qīngdǎo.)
哦?你会去旅游吗?不会去找工作吗?(Ó? Nǐ huì qù lǚyóu ma? Bú huì qù zhǎo gōngzuò ma?)
我会在那里 的大学学习一些课程。(Wǒ huì zài nàlǐ de dàxué xuéxí yìxiē kèchéng.)
那很好。要带上防晒霜,我觉得那里很热。(Nà hěn hǎo. Yào dàishang fángshàishuāng, wǒ juéde nàlǐ hěn rè.)
Let's hear it with the English translation.
谢谢你的食物!好好吃。(Xièxie nǐ de shíwù! Hǎohǎo chī.)
"Thank you for the food! It's so tasty."
不用谢。丽莎,你暑假会做什么?(Bùyòng xiè. Lìshā, nǐ shǔjià huì zuò shénme?)
"You're welcome. Lisha, what will you do during summer vacation?"
Pay attention to the next sentence. It follows the key speaking pattern you'll learn later in this lesson.
我和一些朋友会去青岛。(Wǒ hé yìxiē péngyǒu huì qù Qīngdǎo.)
"Some friends and I will go to Qingdao."
哦?你会去旅游吗?不会去找工作吗?(Ó? Nǐ huì qù lǚyóu ma? Bú huì qù zhǎo gōngzuò ma?)
"Oh? Are you going to travel? Not looking for a job?"
我会在那里 的大学学习一些课程。(Wǒ huì zài nàlǐ de dàxué xuéxí yìxiē kèchéng.)
"I'll be taking some courses at a university there."
那很好。要带上防晒霜,我觉得那里很热。(Nà hěn hǎo. Yào dàishang fángshàishuāng, wǒ juéde nàlǐ hěn rè.)
"That's great. Be sure to bring sunscreen— I think it's very hot there."
