你好!我叫罗伯特! I can never remember if have the right characters for my name, ahah. I’m only sure about the 1st one.. and this time the 2nd one, too..
Let’s see if I remember from class last fall..
我是美国人,和我是高学生.我岁十六(?)。I love how Chinese has a meaning to go with most of the names (as far as I can tell) like how Mei Guo is Beautiful Kingdom, right?

for the sentence "岁十六“, it should be "十六岁”. we put “suì” after numbers
“美国” does mean a beautiful kingdom and it’s very beautiful

Would you happen to know why many countries are not labeled as a ‘kingdom’? I noticed that many do not include 国 while watching the Olympics. | |
