My name is Tristan and I'm 24, from the UK. I am currently in Australia on a working holiday visa and this is where I met some friends from Taiwan. Looking to learn Mandarin so I can talk easier with my new friends and hopefully visit Taiwan in the future. I have already started learning Mandarin from a book, but a lot of the time I only have my own voice or Google translate to help with tones and phonetics. Happy to find anyone willing to help me using messaging (I have Line but not WeChat atm). Can exchange for about 22 years of everyday English. :)

    I want to know average or minimum rate = I want to know *the average or minimum rate. What is the average or minimum house rant fee for apartment one person or sharing house in japan? = What is the average or minimum *rate/rent* for a *one person/bed apartment* or *share house* in Japan? Average is the sum of all the values in a set divided by the number of values. Minimum is the lowest possible value in a set. You can use rate or rent when talking about accommodation. Sometimes it's useful to say the number of beds or rooms you would prefer. Single apartment = an apartment with one bed 4 bedroom sharehouse = a shared house which has 4 bedrooms. And so on. Hope it helps

    買汽車 Buying a car exercise: ■請問，先生，您要買汽車嗎? □對啊，我的汽車太舊了。我可以看看這三輛汽車嗎? ■你可以，你喜歡哪輛車?這輛汽車看起來好看，對不對? □還好。這輛車賣多少錢? ■這輛車賣兩萬塊錢。 □真的嗎?它太貴了。那兩車比較便宜嗎? ■那輛車比較便宜。它也比較大但是比較舊。 I haven't finished the exercise but have a couple of questions: Is there a rule to follow of when to use 輛汽車 and when I can just use 輛車? 比較 is a new word for me, not sure if I am using it correctly. 多謝 Thank you

    "Yo" is a couple of things. Informal greeting "yo, what's up?" To get attention "Yo! We are over here!" A little bit similar to "Hey" (though hey has a few more uses). I think :)

    North is an Noun, adjective and adverb. Northern is only an adjective. Describes something that comes from the North or is in the North. So you could say "North China is colder than South China." And "Northern China is colder than southern China." As they are both adjectives. But you could not say "Many rivers in China come from the Northern." As Northern is not a noun. "Many rivers in China come from the North." As North is a noun. Or "Many rivers in China come from the Northern/North regions." Both being used as an adjective for the word regions. I think :)
