This Monday, the 'Beginners I' course in Liverpool Street (Monday) has finished, we have seen each student in this class made great progress, well done everyone!

Daniel B suggested me to make some sentences/phrases according to the characters we have learned at this term, I think this is a good idea, so that you can use them, not only recognising the single characters. So I am now trying to make some sentences. I hope everyone can join.

Game rule is simple: translate each sentence into English, and answer in Chinese (where there is a question)
FYI, the textbook is 'Easy way to learn Chinese characters', from P.1 to P.51.

1.一九七九年五月六日是(shi4, to be)我的生日.你的生日?
2.我是中国人,你是外国人吗?
3.我明天马上走.
4.我儿子看书.
5.明天天气好,我们去(qu4, go)外面.
6.我家三口人,我们买车了,我们开心
7.你家几口人?你们买不买车?你们开不开心?
8.你下午买不买东西?
8.我身体好,你身体好吗?
9.中文书好看,我儿子看中文书.
10.我出生在(zai4, at)日本,你出生在美国?
11.我家不太大,你家大不大?
12.我女儿开车,你女儿开不开车?
13. 山上六个人,工厂里一百个人.
14.我自己生气,我同事(collegue)不生气,不是大事.
15.你在不在家里面?
16.大夫开门,我在外面!
17.你夫人很美.
18.我家主人开电车.
19.工厂里不少工人,一个主人.
20.我白天在伦敦(lun2 dun1,London)中心,你也在?
21.我们休息,明天不休息,你明白不明白?
22.我女儿是好大夫,你女儿是大夫吗?
22.我儿子又生气了,他在门口.
23.下个月我夫人画中国画,上个月我儿子画日本画.

I will carry one to write more phrases and sentences, and welcome any suggestions.

很好!看来你已经知道了我们学过的所有的汉字,也许我可以写更多的一些东西,让你(们)阅读.
Well done! It looks like that you already know all the characters we have learnt, maybe I can write more, to let you read.
