Yajie: Perfect Chinese your way, in o<\/em>nly five minutes a day. Welcome to Chinese Studio. I’m Yajie.
Cam: Hello, every one. I’m Cam. Time flies. We are already at the end of the week. That means it’s time for us to review what we’ve learned this week. <\/span>
Yajie: This week we mainly focused on basic and useful sentences for saying thanks and goodbye. Let’s go over Sentences In The week.<\/p>\n

***************Sentences in the Week

****************<\/p>\n

Yajie: When you want to thank somebody for doing something for you. For instance, “Thank you for passing the salt.” Just say “\u8c22\u8c22” or “\u8c22\u8c22\u4f60”. \u8c22\u8c22means “thank”, and \u4f60 means “you”. Thank you. \u8c22\u8c22\u4f60.
Cam: \u8c22\u8c22\u4f60(xièxie n\u01d0).
Yajie: Cam, do you still remember the reply to \u8c22\u8c22?
Cam: Yep. It’s\u4e0d\u7528\u8c22. Bù yòng xiè! Or \u4e0d\u8c22 (bú xiè).
Yajie: Great!<\/p>\n

***************Sentences in the Week
Also we learnt a few popular ex<\/em>pressions of saying goodbye. \u518d\u89c1, goodbye. \u4e00\u4f1a\u513f\u89c1, see you later. \u660e\u5929\u89c1, see you tomorrow. \u4fdd\u91cd, take care. \u6211\u8d70\u4e86\uff0f\u6253\u6270\u4e86\uff0c\u6211\u8d70\u4e86\u3002 \u54ea\u91cc\uff0c\u60a8\u6162\u8d70\u3002Time for me to leave.\uff0f\u4ee5\u540e\u518d\u6765\u554a\u3002
 ***************<\/p>\n

Yajie: We also learned how to say goodbye.
Cam: Yes, it’s \u518d\u89c1. <\/span>
Yajie: Right. \u518dmeans again, \u89c1means to see. Literally, \u518d\u89c1 means to see you again. \u518d\u89c1 Zàijiàn. <\/span>
Cam:\u518d\u89c1is suitable for any occasion, right?
Y: Yes, totally. But if you know you will see the person again soon, you can just say\u4e00\u4f1a\u513f\u89c1. \u4e00\u4f1a\u513fmeans a while, so\u4e00\u4f1a\u513f\u89c1means see you later. <\/span>
Cam: \u4e00\u4f1a\u513f\u89c1. Yíhuìr jiàn.<\/p>\n

A:\u6211\u662f\u4e2d\u56fd\u4eba\u3002)
Yajie: Also learned a few more popular ex<\/em>pressions of saying goodbye. \u6211\u8d70\u4e86\u3002\uff0f\u6253\u6270\u4e86\uff0c\u6211\u8d70\u4e86\u3002 <\/span>

Yajie:The reply should be\u54ea\u91cc\uff0c\u60a8\u6162\u8d70\u3002\u54ea\u91cc has the meaning of wher. Here it means that’s nothing. And this is the reply to your thanks. Usually the Chinese people would repeat by saying “\u54ea\u91cc\u54ea\u91cc”.
Cam: “\u54ea\u91cc\u54ea\u91cc”.<\/p>\n
