Abstract : Here’s a riddle for you: I never stop moving; I can change you but you cannot see me; I can control you, but you cannot feel me; I am everywhere but you cannot hold me. What am I? That’s right! TIME. One of the most important things to learn, for any one who needs to meet friends, or simply to start a conversation.
Numbers are very important in Mandarin learning and Chinese culture. Once you've understand the numbers, you can connect many other new words, for example, time. You need to learn number first in order to learn how to tell time. Since we have already learned numbers, in today's lesson, we are ready for time.
