\tExplanation of difficult points <\/strong><\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

1. \u53ef\u4ee5 \t<\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

"\u53ef\u4ee5" (k\u011b y\u01d0) an also mean "can\/to be able".<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

2. \u591a\u5c11 \t<\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

"\u591a\u5c11" (du\u014d sh\u01ceo) means "how much\/many". It is another question word and functions in the same way as "\u4ec0\u4e48" (shén me) does from Lesson 2.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

\t<\/p>\n

3. units of Renminbi \t<\/div>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

1) In China, the currency is called "\u4eba\u6c11\u5e01" (rén mín bì) [\uffe5RMB]. The units are "\u5143" (yuán), "\u89d2" (ji\u01ceo), and "\u5206" (f\u0113n). The denominations are \uffe5100, \uffe550, \uffe520, \uffe510, \uffe55, \uffe51, \uffe50.5, \uffe50.1, \uffe50.05, \uffe50.01. This is how it works: \u7ed3\u6784(jié gòu)\uff1a ___ \u5143 (\uffe51) ___ \u89d2 (\uffe50.1) ___ \u5206 (\uffe50.01)<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

2) Here are some ground rules on money.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

\tA. In spoken Chinese, "\u5143" and "\u89d2" are also called "\u5757" (kuài) and "\u6bdb" (máo) respectively.<\/p>\n

\tB. If there are no "\u89d2" or "\u5206", then you do not need to say "\u96f6\u89d2\u96f6\u5206"(líng ji\u01ceo líng f\u0113n), but if there are no "\u89d2" but there are "\u5206", then you do need to say "\u96f6" for the "\u89d2" place (but you do not need to say "\u89d2". For example:<\/p>\n

\t\uffe57.00 \u4e03\u5143 (q\u012b yuán)<\/p>\n

\t\uffe59.02 \u4e5d\u5143\u96f6\u4e8c\u5206 (ji\u01d4 yuán líng èr f\u0113n)<\/p>\n

\tC. If there are no "\u5206", then you do not need to say "\u96f6\u5206". \u5982\uff1a\uffe52.60 \u4e24\u5143\u516d\u89d2(li\u01ceng yuán liù ji\u01ceo)<\/p>\n

\tD. If using the "\u5757" and "\u6bdb" units, the last relevant unit can omitted. However, if using the "\u5143" and "\u89d2" units, then "\u89d2" and "\u5206" cannot be omitted unless there are no "\u89d2" and no "\u5206".<\/p>\n

\t\uffe51.40 \u4e00\u5757\u56db (yí kuài sì)<\/p>\n

\t\uffe58.00 \u516b\u5143 (b\u0101 yuán)<\/p>\n

\t\uffe513.50 \u5341\u4e09\u5143\u4e94\u89d2 (shí s\u0101n yuán w\u01d4 ji\u01ceo)<\/p>\n

3) Examples:<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

\t\uffe521.00 \u4e8c\u5341\u4e00\u5143 \u4e8c\u5341\u4e00\u5757 (èr shí y\u012b yuán\/ èr shí yí kuài)<\/p>\n

\t\uffe58.60 \u516b\u5143\u516d\u89d2 \u516b\u5757\u516d(\u6bdb) (b\u0101 yuán liù ji\u01ceo\/ bá kuài liù (máo))<\/p>\n

\t\uffe519.34 \u5341\u4e5d\u5143\u4e09\u89d2\u56db\u5206 \u5341\u4e5d\u5757\u4e09\u6bdb\u56db(\u5206) (shí ji\u01d4 yuán s\u0101n ji\u01ceo sì f\u0113n\/ shí ji\u01d4 kuài s\u0101n máo sì (f\u0113n))<\/p>\n

\t\uffe55.25 \u4e94\u5143\u4e8c\u89d2\u4e94\u5206 \u4e94\u5757\u4e8c\u6bdb\u4e94(\u5206) \u3014w\u01d4 yuán èr ji\u01ceo w\u01d4 f\u0113n\/ w\u01d4 kuài èr máo w\u01d4 (f\u0113n)\u3015<\/p>\n
