Chinese Class Review 12/2/17

Basic Chinese - Viewpoint Questions 1 & 2

We went into detail on the lesson Asking Questions in JW Language app. We are interested in "What do you think" in particular. Usually we say 你认为 or 你觉得. Although the character 想 can mean "think", we hardly use it in "What do you think". Instead it usually means "want" or "would like to" as in 我想吃冰淇淋(I want to eat ice-cream).

We also learned a new question word that is almost always at the end of a viewpoint question: 呢.

JW Language - Personal Pronoun

We reviewed a little bit about personal pronouns in Chinese: 我，你，您，他，她，它，牠，祂. We also learned my/mine, your/yours, his, her, and its. We simply need to add 的 to the Chinese personal pronouns above. For instance, my/mine is 我的; his is 他的.

JW Language - Actions

We learned about different sentence structures when it comes to describing everyday actions.
