Hello mr. Benny,
How are you? I want to learn how to say: Thank you for…..
Thank you for coming!
Thank you for being so polite and nice.
Thank you for not being impatient.
When I go to China, I like to eat Chinese food.
When I’m at my house I like to study mandarin.
Also, I want to know: to be right and wrong.
What is the word for false in mandarin and how do I use the word Jia 1? Jia means house and family. How do I clarify the two? Wo de jia means my house? Zai jia means at home?

In Chinese “Thanks for… = xiè xie nǐ +……” For example:
1. Thank you for coming… = xiè xie nǐ lái….
2. Thank you for being so polite and nice = xiè xie nǐ zhè me kè qì
3. Thanks for your patience = xiè xie nǐ de nài xīn
4. When I go to China, I like to eat Chinese food = wǒ qù zhōng guó de shí hòu, wǒ xǐ huān chī zhōng guó cài
5. When I’m at my house I like to study Mandarin = wǒ zài jiā de shí hòu, wǒ xǐ huān xué xi pǔ tōng huà
As for right and wrong,
right = duì de
wrong = cuò de
False in Chinese is “jiǎ de”
In Chinese “jiā” means home.
House = fáng zi
family = jiā rén
“wǒ de jiā” means “my home”. Not my house
Zǎi jiā = at home
