    关于中文

    大家好!
    三月我在外国话和文学毕业了。在大学我学汉语和德语了,但是汉语很难, 三个年不够, 所以现在我一个人想继续学这个外国语。 我真喜欢中文,然后它为工作很重要。
    我觉得了解中国人在说给我太难,你们说得真的快!语音也不容易。

     

    三月=今年三月, You did not point out which March, and I guese you are just graduated in this year.

     

    外國話和文學=外語跟文學專業。專業=major in your  University. In the Mandarin, they always  using專業。

     

    在大學我學=在大學時期,我學習漢語和德語, In my college life, I study Chinese and German.了  is an unnecessary extension word in this sentence.

     

    三個年不夠=我已經學了中文三年多,可是還是感覺不足夠, I have been study Chinese three

    Years, but I still feel not enough to me

     

    現在我一個人=我现在还想I still want to.... now

     

    學這個外國語=學好這門外語。 learn this forign language to me.

     

    真喜歡=真的喜歡 you just missing a的

     

    然後它為工作很重要=中文以后對我工作有幫助。Chinese is helpful tool in my future career.

     

    我覺得了解中國人在说给我太難,我覺得聽明白中國人在說什麼對我來說太難,I guese you are trying to say listening is not  easy. 

     

    語音=口語  speaking

     

    If you don t understand, I can explain to you. Feel free to ask me questions

    今天天气很热,我最喜欢热的天气。我不喜欢冬天,因为冬天天气很冷!
    我很累,昨天晚上 我学睡觉太晚了!

    。 。 。 糟糕! 我忘了!星期一我有中文课考试!我需要复习很多~

    再见!

    Here is my suggestion:

    學校 replace by上學。Your sentence is make sense.However, 上學 can be much better. To me,我去學校 。I will prefer when people ask me:where are you going, then I will answer in 我去學校。

     

    可是 replace by但是。In my opinion,可是 in Chinese means :Well.... something something. I pick 但是  because it exactly means however in Chinese.

     

    教學方法很好 replaCE by 教得很好。My teacher's teaching method is so well compare my teacher teaches so well. 我的老師教得很好 already express your meaning. In the Chinese writing, you don t need to make a complicate sentence. Try to use the short phrase to express your idea. Remember, simple is the best.

     

    學很多 add 到了=學到了很多, I think this one is hard to explain. However, I will try my best. 學很多=learn a lot. For example,我學很多語言(I learn a lot of languages)。到了 means arrived to somewhere.我學到了很多( I m fully understand after I learn from my teacher.) In this situation,到了 means I attach my goal and fully understand.

     

    熱的天氣 replace by 夏天( summer): I understand why you are using hot weather. You are typical American girl,haha.However, it sounds weird in Chinese. In Chinese people's mind, when you say 夏天which already means hot weather. That's why I try teach you sounds as a Chinese.

     

    昨天我學睡覺太晚 replace by因為昨天晚上我複習到很晚才睡覺:I think you try to say I slept quite late because I studied last night. If you read the sentence that I write it. You will learn the Chinese grammar.因為(because)昨天(yesterday)晚上(night)我(I)複習(study)到(until)很晚(quite late)才(and then)睡覺(sleep).Hopefully, that will help you understand the complex sentence structure in Chinese.

     

    星期一我有中文課考試replace by我還有中文考試在(下一個next/這一個 this )星期一。 I think this structure is similar to English. I still have Chinese exam on (next or this ) Monday. 我(I)還有 (still have)中文考試(Chinese exam) 在(on)下一個(next)星期一(M onday)。 P'S: I never hear people said we have a chemistry class exam on coming up Monday and I only hear we have a chemistry exam (Chem test)on comming up monday. Same idea in Chinese.

     

    我需要複習很多 replace by我要努力複習考試:I guese you are trying to say I need to do a lot of study. Key word in here is努力(strive). This is a frequency word in Chinese. In the Chinese people mind, 努力 also mean do the best and do a lot. It is a motivated word to do something. 我(I)要( will)努力(strive)複習(study/review)考試(exam).

     

    Julie, it s a good start for you to write the journal. Practice will make you sounds so Chinese in one day. I hope my translate and explain can helping you , have a nice day^^
