Mandarin · Mission 1
Stay in the Conversation
A short exchange with someone you have just met, using only phrases from Lessons 1–4.
Six moments from an ordinary first conversation. You will not catch every word — nobody does at this stage. The point is to keep the exchange going anyway: greet, introduce yourself, say how much Mandarin you have, ask for help when you need it, and close politely.
Step 1 of 6
Someone greets you. What do you say?
They say
你好
Pinyin: nǐ hǎo
A guided exercise, not a conversation with a person or a machine. Every step is scripted, and nothing you do here changes your lesson progress. Back to Mandarin
