1. tán = to play for piano, guitar…
2. dǎ = to play for drum
3. lā = to play for violin, cello
4. chuī = to play for harmonica/ saxophone
To shoot a gun or weapon, we say “kāi”. For example: kāi qiāng = shoot a gun
Gūn = qiāng
canon = dà pào
missiles = dǎo dàn
bow = gōng
arrow = gōng jiàn
crossbow = shí zì gōng
throw = diū
