Hi, dàjiā hǎo, welcome back. Jīntiān nǐmen hǎo ma? (How are you guys today?) Huānyíng lái Bennysland, wǒ shì Benny (Hello everyone, welcome to Bennysland, I am Benny). This experience will show you the common public signs. They are very useful for your day-to-day life.
Alright, firstly we need to learn these two words as in China, you'll see them just about everywhere:
|
rùkǒu |
入口 |
entrance |
|
chūkǒu |
出口 |
exit |
You will see them in some pubic places such as museums:
|
wù |
勿 |
no |
|
chùmō |
触摸 |
touch |
|
shèxiàngjī |
摄像机 |
video camera |
|
shǎnguāngdēng |
闪光灯 |
flash |
|
pāizhào |
拍照 |
photography |
FOR EXAMPLE:
|
Qǐng wù chùmō. Do not touch. |
请勿触摸。 |
|
Qǐng wù shèxiàng. No video cameras. |
请勿摄像。 |
|
Qǐng wù shǐyòng shǎnguāngdēng pāizhào. No flash photography. |
请勿使用闪光灯拍照。 |
In the library,you will see :
|
ānjìng |
安静 |
silent |
|
shípǐn |
食品 |
food |
|
yǐnliào |
饮料 |
drinks |
FOR EXAMPLE:
|
Qǐng bǎochí ānjìng. Silent, please. |
请保持安静。 |
|
Shípǐn yǐnliào qǐng wù rùnèi. No food and drinks. |
食品饮料请勿入内。 |
These sentences always appear in our daily life and I think if you want, you can use the sentence like “Qǐng bǎochí ānjìng” in your office or home to keep quiet. Wishing you a Happy Day, my friends. See you next time, xièxie, zàijiàn!
It's easy as ABC!
