Abstract : Biting your nails? Playing with your hair? Brushing your teeth every night before you go to bed? Every single one of us has a habit. Some are good, some are bad. Your mom and dad or maybe your friends are used to your habits but do you want to change?
Hello everyone, welcome to Bennysland. I'm Benny, the most popular Mandarin teacher in the world. Today I will teach you a very useful word which is “xíguàn.” It means “habit and be used to.” People always get confused about habit and be used to. Because in English, there's completely different words while in Mandarin it's all the same! Therefore today I would like to “kill” the confusion by explaining how to use it. Let's rock and roll.
