SCRIPT

Hello everyone, welcome to Bennysland. I am Benny, your Mandarin teacher. In today's micro-class I will teach you a very important word which is “when”, in Chinese we say “shénme shíhou”, “shénme shíhou.” We put it in the beginning of the sentence or after the subject.

 

For example:
“Nǐ shénme shíhou qù Shànghǎi?" or
“Shénme shíhou nǐqù Shànghǎi?”

 

Which means “When will you go to Shanghai?”

 

By the way, “qù” means “to go”.

 

All right, guys, did you get it? Now come with me, let's see how we use it!

 

SCENE 1:

B: Joy, shénme shíhou nǐ qù Shànghǎi?

A: Míngtiān.

B: Hǎo.

 

 

SCENE 2:

B: Joy, shénme shíhou nǐ qù Shànghǎi?

A: Míngtiān.

B: Hǎo.

 

 

SCENE 3:

B: Joy, shénme shíhou nǐ qù Shànghǎi?

A: Míngtiān.

B: Hǎo.

 

 

It's easy as ABC!
