Nihao LinLuo lan,

My cell phone number is 86 136 519 55941. I actually use the skype when I called. I would like to let you know that if you missed the call in the future you may probably reach me only within at most 5 minutes after I called, as I have to move to another lesson just soon after your call. So I may not be able to take your call then.

Thanks for your understanding in advance!

I would like to arrange some extra time for you during our next lesson if you like. If it would work with you, I can call you 5minutes earlier then usually so that we are able to make this up.

Please let me know if it works!

xiexie!

周末愉快!--- zhou1mo4 yu2kuai4 --- Have a nice weekend!

 

Helen

hello,

I made some sentences for the assignment this week. I used the new Chinese Hanzi tool that I downloaded to write them.  I used some of the vocabulary in this week's lessons. We have been preparing for my grandparents to visit!

Here are my sentences. Some of them are true!

我 想 妈妈。(妈 妈 不 在 我 们 的 家!)

the next three sentences use vocabulary from the lesson 'Who is that?' and together they form a dialogue

你 是 谁?

我 是 你 的 朋 友.

噢, 对!

here is my last sentence, it does not really use very much of the vocabulary in this week's lessons, but I like it.

我 喜欢 三明治!
