The weather affects everyone. Often, our plans and activities will rely on what's going on outside and we need to communicate the forecast to our friends. In Mandarin Chinese, there are a few necessary words you need to know before making plans. Today, Teacher John will introduce a few. 

晴天 (qíngtiān) = sunny day

Jīntiān shì qíngtiān.
今天是晴天.
It's sunny today.
_______________________

阴天 (yīntiān) = cloudy day

Xī'ān míngtiān shì yīntiān.
西安明天是阴天.
Xi'an will be cloudy tomorrow.
_______________________

下雨 (xiàyǔ) = to rain

香港很爱下雨.
Xiānggǎng hĕn ài xiàyǔ.
Hong Kong is always rainy.
