- A: 你好！
(Nǐ hǎo!)
Hello!
- B: 你好！请问，你叫什么名字？ (Nǐ hǎo! Qǐngwèn, nǐ jiào shénme míngzì?) - Hello! May I ask, what is your name?
- A: 我叫李明。 (Wǒ jiào Lǐ Míng.) - My name is Li Ming.
Practice:
1. Practice saying the phrase "你好！我叫..." (Nǐ hǎo! Wǒ jiào...) - Hello! My name is...
2. Introduce yourself using the phrase. For example: 你好！我叫王美丽。 (Nǐ hǎo! Wǒ jiào Wáng Měilì.) - Hello! My name is Wang Meili.
Cultural Insight:
- In Chinese culture, it's customary to use the family name (姓, xìng) followed by the given name (名, míng) when introducing oneself. For example, "李明" (Lǐ Míng) consists of the family name "李" (Lǐ) and the given name "明" (Míng).
Remember to practice introducing yourself in Chinese to become more confident with this essential skill. In Lesson 3, we will explore numbers in Chinese.
