More from HSK 2
- 成语 · 熟能生巧 — Familiarity breeds skill. Four characters behind every hour of practice.
- 唐诗 · 静夜思 — Twenty characters every Chinese child knows by heart, and almost all of them are HSK 1.
- 歌 · 甜蜜蜜 — Sweet as honey, and the line in it is a question you already know how to ask.
- 歌 · 月亮代表我的心 — Seven characters, six of them HSK 1, and the most-covered love song in Mandarin.
- 追 · Follow up, genuinely curious — History, food, their village — chase whatever thread they just opened. Very little language unlocks hundreds of hours of practice.
- 问 · 多久 How long, how many — 多久 asks a length of time and follows the verb; 几 counts and takes a measure word after it.
- 问 · 怎么 How, and what do you think — 怎么 asks the manner of doing something; 怎么样 asks for an opinion or a state.
- 问 · 能…吗 Could you — 能 + verb + 吗 is a request, not an order. It is the polite way to ask someone to keep going.
