This week we had Mandarin lessons with a teacher called Mrs Qin and she taught us how to have a conversation in Mandarin by saying things like hello, good morning, how are you, goodbye, good and thank you. Then she let us listen to some Mandarin songs that had all the words we had learned and she showed us a video of four people having a conversation in Mandarin.

Here is what we learned if you would like to practise at home!

Ni hao – Hello

Zao shang hao – Good morning

Ni hao ma? – How are you?

Wo hen hao, xie xie ni ne? – I’m very well thanks, and you?

Wo ye hen hao, zai jian! – I’m also very well, good bye!
