A free Chinese lesson from TutorMandarin. Website: https://www.tutormandarin.net/en/ APP: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=inc.osbay.android.tutormandarin How to ask name in Mandarin? Getting to know someone else isn’t always that simple — especially when it is in another language. Trying to speak even just a few sentences in the native language of a foreigner you want to get to know, always shows your interest and respect to that person. And as we all know – It is all about the first impression while meeting someone for the first time. Therefore, TutorMandarin wants to give you some examples how to get started. Today, we want to give you a short overview how you can introduce yourself and others so that you can start to learn Chinese language. To make it as easy as possible we will show you some examples including the English translation, Chinese characters, and pinyin (the pronunciation).
