Hi! I'm Loren from Taiwan. I speak Mandarin Chinese and want to become fluent in English. It's not necessary for me to speak English in my life or at last job, so that's why I'm here. Hope I can practice more on italki, and I'll help others to learn Chinese here.

    我學習普通話

    我姐姐是來自台灣,我會去拜訪她在二月。我答應她我會實踐我普通話。所以這是我在做什麼。我知道幾乎沒有普通話除了幾句話,她教給我的。我想練習我的口語。我想提高和驚喜我的大姐姐。
    感謝您的閱讀


    我姊姊來自台灣,而我打算二月時去拜訪/看她。我曾答應她會好好學習中文,但除了她教我的幾句話之外,我實在懂得不多。現在主要我要加強口語練習,希望到時候我的中文表達能給她一個驚喜。

     


    What I was hoping to write:
    (Any corrections appreciated)
    My older sister is from Taiwan and I am going to visit her in February. I promised her I would practice my Mandarin, so that is what I will do. I don't know much Mandarin, besides a few words she taught me. I need to practice my speaking mostly. I want to improve and surprise my older sister.
    Thank you for reading

    Ha! You're here. How's it going? I think it's okay to write the same introduction.

    昨天我们去电影院

    我地女儿很小。她四岁。所以我们没去电影院。而且她看很多电视。然所现在是放假。上星期我们说她“星期一我们会去电影院”。每个天她问“今天我们去电影院?”
    昨天我们去电影院。我们看“Frozen“。她很喜欢公主。
    但是她不喜欢那个电影。她怕。
    明年我们会去电影院。

    我的調整說明:

    1. 我當作是「我」在寫這篇「日記」,因為是「我」寫,所以加了一些讓文章更合理的文字,就不會全盤都只使用您的中文文字,也參考了您的英文原文作補充。另外因為是「日記」,所以表達的方式比較輕鬆自然,所以會有一些「了」、「吧」的文字使用。
    2.   是根據您的中文原文做的修正;  是我額外加入的文字。藍字是調整的原因說明。
    3.您使用了淺薄兩字,代表您的中文程度有一定水準......good job!

    昨天我們去電影院
      我的女兒很小,她只有四歲,所以我們從沒帶她去電影院過,況且她平常也看很多電視了。不過現在因為有放假,所以我們決定試著帶她去電影院。(←您的英文原文中也有提到這句話)自從上個禮拜(=星期)我們告訴她:「週一時我們會帶妳去電影院看電影」後,整個禮拜她每天都會問我們:「今天要去電影院了嗎?我們何時要去啊?(←您的英文原文中有提到這句話;而且用兩種方式問父母:今天要去?何時要去啊?更加傳達了小孩對看電影的期待)」

      昨天我們終於帶她去電影院了。我們看了"Frozen",她很喜歡裡面的公主,但她並不喜歡這部電影,因為電影的聲音太大了,所以她會害怕。

      我想應該明年才有可能再帶她去電影院吧!

    My daughter is very small, only 4. So we don’t take her to the cinema. And she already watches too much TV. But as we are on holidays we decided to try to take her. Last week we told her “On Monday we’ll go to the cinema”. Every day all week she asked “Are we going to the cinema today? When will we go to the cinema?”. “On Monday” we said.
    Finally we went to the cinema yesterday. But she didn’t like it. It was too noisy and she was afraid.
    So we won’t try to go to the cinema again until next year.

    "There is" and "There are" ? Hope it would not impolite. According to a teacher's profile, "My lesson are fun, informative and useful for everyday situation." My questions: 1) Why the verb is "are"? 2) "Lesson" is a countable noun, so should we change it to plural "lessons"? or dose it has a special meaning in the sentence? I also have other questions about the verb as following. 1) There (is or are?) a dog, two cats, and three pigs. 2) There (is or are?) three pigs, two cats, and a dog. 3) There (is or are?) a dog and a cat. I want to know more about "There is…." and "There are…." Hope someone can kindly tell me the answers and why. Thanks.
