Ni Hao Benny,

Can you give me some examples on how to use the following words:

1) 陷 xiàn
2) 困难 kùn nan
3) 珍惜 zhēn xī
4) 事情 shì qing

Besides that, What is the diff. between 彼此 bǐ cǐ and 互相 hù xiāng?? Can’t I say wǒ men bǐ cǐ liàn xí zhōng wén ? instead of using hù xiāng in this case?

Thanks alot Benny. May u have a blessed day

Hi Henry,

It’s good to hear from you again.

1. 陷 is from 陷阱 which means “trap”

小心这是一个陷阱 = Be careful, this is a trap

2. 困难 = difficulty

现在我们有很多的困难 = Right now we have lots of difficulties

3. 珍惜 = to cherish

珍惜生命 = cherish life

4. 事情 = things

今天我有很多事情要做 = I have lots of things to do today

彼此 and 互相 are basically the same words, but 彼此 is more formal

Benny
