        Benny,
Is 我信任你 a usable sentence? Or should it be 我信心你. ?

  |  |  Benny the Mandarin Teacher bennysland.com  2009-05-14 / 12:22PM |   |  Hi Kevin, “我信任你” is a very good sentence which means “I trust you”. While "我信心你“ doesn’t make any sense in Chinese. Because "信心 = confidence” is a Noun. 
You can say “我有信心 =  I have confidence“ or ”我对你有信心 = I have confidence on you”
