Explanations of difficult points<\/p>\n

1. \u7684
In "\u4e00\u4e9b\u7ed9\u6211\u4f84\u5b50\u7684\u793c\u7269" (yì xi\u0113 g\u011bi w\u01d2 zhí zi de l\u01d0 wù, gifts for my nephew) words before "\u7684" is to describe and restrict "\u793c\u7269"(l\u01d0 wù, gifts) instead of showing the possessive relationship.<\/p>\n

2. \u4e0b
"\u4e0b(xià)" here means "to get off\/disembark" and "\u4e0a"(shàng) is the opposite, "to get on\/board". Here you should pay special attention to meanings that are different from what we learned before. "\u4e0a"(shàng) and "\u4e0b"(xià) before meant "\u4e0a\u4e00\u4e2a"(shàng yí gè, last one) and "\u4e0b\u4e00\u4e2a"(xià yí gè, next one).<\/p>\n

3. \u8f66
"\u8f66"(ch\u0113) generally refers to "a form of transportation" (but not subway, lightrail, or train—these forms of transportation usually have their specific names) but when used alone, it usually means "car". In the following ways you can see that the transportation tools are different.
1) \u5f00\u8f66(k\u0101i ch\u0113)—<\/p>\n

to drive a car<\/p>\n

2) \u5750\u8f66(zuò ch\u0113)—
to take\/ride a bus or a car<\/p>\n

3) \u9a91\u8f66(qí ch\u0113)—
to ride a bike\/motorcycle<\/p>\n

4) \u6253\u8f66(d\u01ce ch\u0113)—
to take a taxi
