Want to learn Chinese? :)

[ElDanés]

Lee ying, you can try this one out, which I also use:
http://www.chinese-tools.com/tools/ime.html

It uses simplified Chinese characters though...

[Jessica]

I use simplified Chinese because it's easier. Traditional ones are harder. I will have a look at that. Maybe I can use that.

Edit:
I looked at it and decided that it's way better than the translator that I use. The translator I use is sometimes not very efficient. ^_^

[lee ying]

ok, I tried, but I have to write in ping yin that`s pretty hard because I don`t know too many words in chinese. but I wrote this word: duo zhuyi sheti:多注意身体 and this work. it`s really work.only I have to know too many words in chinese, right?
thank you danès.再见
hao yun: good luck.-

[lee ying]

Did you write this?
着社 jessica`s 的前比
this is jessica`s pencil.right.

[Jessica]

铅笔 is the correct characters for pencil, although 前比 and 铅笔 have the same pin yin.
这是 Jessica 的铅笔. you don't need the 's. it's the 的

[lee ying]

oh, because you wrote she so is shi, zhe shi:这是, right.
的 : `s: from. this is possesive pronoun.

[Jessica]

yes that's right.

[Jessica]

猫 mao (cat)
鱼 yú (fish)

Now, I learn it at home. My mom used to be a teacher, teaching Chinese.
