Learning how to introduce yourself and your family in Chinese:

Let's begin with introducing yourself. In Chinese, you can say: 

我叫 (wǒ jiào...) + your name = My name is...

Nǐ jiào shénme?
你叫什么?  
What's your name?  

你 (nǐ) = you

When discussing family members, you can use the previous structure with the following Chinese names for family members, as talked about with the student in today's video:

妈妈 (māma) = mom 
爸爸 (bàbɑ) = dad
弟弟 (dìdi) = younger brother
姐姐 ( jiějie) = older sister

When you student at the Adult Level 1, you can begin to build your language skills from even the most basic foundation!
