UNIT 15 GRAMMAR

There's only one quick grammar note for this section! The character for "very," 很 (hěn), can be used as a verb, unlike in English when we say something "is very . . ." 

For example, it often replaces the verb 是 (shì), as shown in the sentences above.




UNIT 15 STUDY RESOURCES

Once again we can visit Emma's YouTube channel, learnchinesewithemma, for this video. She reviews vocab words (along with a few new ones) and then explains how to sing Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes in Chinese! 

This link leads to an interactive webpage with several cartoon characters. With each character, you can move the mouse and see the pinyin and characters for the body parts!
