Lesson Twenty-Five: What Did You Want To Do? (Part One)

Welcome back to another exciting lesson on Zhongwen Study.
Did you finish learning all of the days of the week from the last three lessons? If you are still having trouble that is okay, you can slow down your studies to finish the last lessons. Remember this is not a race and you should not move on until you have thoroughly memorized the last lessons.

明天我想要學習寫國字   Ming2  Tian1  Wo3  Xiang3   Yao4   Xue2  Xi2  Xie3  Guo2  Zi4

Well let us jump right into the translations.
You already know 明天我 so let us examine the characters 想要 ( Xiang3  Yao4 ) ( it means Want to ).
I know we already studied the character 要 before and know that the meaning is Want To. But you should know that like demonstrated above if you say 想要 it will also mean Want To, as there are many ways to say the same thing in Chinese just as in English it is important to know them all so you will not be confused.

The next word we have is 學習 ( Xui2  Xi2 ) ( it means To Study/Learn )
Now practice these words good and we will be back next lesson to examine the remaining words in this sentence.

See you all next on Zhongwen Study 中文學習。
