10 new Chinese sentences Hi everyone, I recently had a lesson with a community tutor here on italki and with her I learned a total of 26 new vocabulary words and phrases. But to make sure that I learn each one before my next lesson, I write 10 sentences using at least 10 of these new words. So if any of my sentences are wrong, please please please correct them! Also, I am writing in pinyin to make sure that I have the tones right. 1. àn wǒ de xiáng fǎ, zhōngwén bǐ xī bān yá yǔ tài nán le - in my opinion, Chinese is harder than Spanish 2. xiáng fǎ gěi tā men dōu shuǐ - try to give all of them water 3. wǒ qù zhōng guó de huà, wǒ yīng gāi cān guān nǎ ge chéng shì? - If I go to China, what city should I visit? 4. zài měi guó, k-pop fēi cháng shòu huān yíng - In America, k-pop is very popular 5. wǒ shuō zhōng wén de shí hou, wǒ zǒng shì wàng zhè ge zì - when I speak Chinese, I always forget this word 6. wǒ wàng yì xiē zì, xiáng qǐ tài nán le - I forgot some words, it is hard to recall them 7. hěn duō zhōng guó diàn yǐng shì guān yú ài qíng - a lot of Chinese movies are about love 8. miáo shū tài nán le - it is so hard to describe 9. wǒ zuì hǎo de péng you de māma fēi cháng lì hài hé chuán tǒng - my best friend's mom is very strict and traditional 10. sān ge chéng shì zhī jiàn shàng hǎi hé zhè lǐ - there are 3 cities between Shanghai and here

3. wǒ qù zhōng guó de huà, wǒ yīng gāi cān guān nǎ ge chéng shì? - If I go to China, what city should I visit? correct !

10. sān ge chéng shì zhī jiàn shàng hǎi hé zhè lǐ - there are 3 cities between Shanghai and here  shanghai he zhe li zhi jian  you san zuo (4 th tone ) cheng shi .for different thing we use different measure word , so for city we usually use 'zuo' (4th tone) . 

all the tones , I think are correct. 

good luck!
