Chinese Link Wordsさんのイラストまとめ

Let's pick an easy word today:

Car • 车 chē

And let's make new words with it! For example:

🚗 汽车 qìchē - a car
🚌 公交车 gōng jiāo chē - a bus
🚛货车 huòchē - a truck, van
🚚卡车 kǎchē - a lorry

🚘 开车 kāichë - to drive a car

Try asking " Can you drive a bus?"

Today's link word:

To add • 加 jiā

Use it like a verb "to add":
加水 jiā shuǐ - add water
加糖 jiā táng - add sugar

Or put 加 before an adjective to create new verbs:
🚀加快 jiā kuài - to speed up
🌡️加热 jiā rè - to heat (it) up

Try saying "Please heat (it) up"?

Just in case you didn't know how to say "today", here comes our new link word:

Day • 天 tiān 🗓️

Now, you can use 天 to make new words:
🌑昨天 zuótiān - yesterday
🌗今天 jīntiān - today
🌕明天 míngtiān - tomorrow

Can you say "The moon was pretty yesterday"?🌙

Today's link word is:

Please; to ask • 请 qǐng 🙏

In Chinese, 请 qǐng always comes first:
请 Qǐng... - Please...
请坐 Qǐng zuò - Have a seat, please

Can you try saying "Drink some tea, please"? 🍵
