Easy Chinese Phrase Book: Over 1500 Common Phrases For Everyday Use and Travel
What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Chinese language?
You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy.
In fact, the toughest part of learning Chinese is knowing how to speak like a native.
Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.
However, how many of them provide you the tools necessary to have a common conversation with a best friend or someone you’ve just met? Not many at all.
Language learners often complain about this – a lack of material that can help you familiarize yourself with the most common phrases used in everyday conversation and in native surroundings.
For this reason, we at Lingo Mastery have developed Easy Chinese Phrase Book: Over 1500 Common Phrases for Everyday Use and Travel for you, our favorite language-learner, so that you may find the best expressions for common usage in China and communicate with your Chinese friends, colleagues and client without any issue!
In this book:
- An introduction with a detailed guide on how to pronounce vowels and consonants (as well as their combinations) in the Chinese tongue.
- A list of over 1,500 common phrases in Chinese, with an accurate translation in English for your understanding.
- A phonetics pronunciation guide of each and every word in the phrases, included after every translation.
- Finally, a conclusion to make sure you’ve learned and supply you with a final list of tips.
Your days struggling with natural communication with natives is finally over. Our Easy Chinese Phrase Book is here.
It’s time for you to take your (Simplified) Chinese to the next level.
