The first one is \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3), which means backstroke.<br \/>  \tChris:&nbsp; \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3)<br \/>  \tYajie: Right. \u4ef0 yang3 in Chinese means lying with your face upward. So \u4ef0\u6cf3yang2 yong3 is backstroke.<br \/>  \tChris: I see, \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang2gyong3).<br \/>  \tYajie: And the second word is breaststroke\u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3).<br \/>  \tChris: \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3)&hellip;I know that frog in Chinese is \u9752\u86d9 (qing1wa1). So is that because breaststroke looks similar to frog swimming?<br \/>  \tYajie: Yes! That&rsquo;s how it gets its name! \u86d9(wa1) is short for\u9752\u86d9 (qing1wa1), frog. \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3),breaststroke.<br \/>  \tChris: \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3)<br \/>  \tYajie:&nbsp; Chris, I know besides backstroke, you are also good at free style. But do you know how to say that in Chinese?<br \/>  \tChris: I guess it&rsquo;s \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3), right?<br \/>  \tYajie: Very good! But we&rsquo;d better explain it for our listeners.<br \/>  \tChris: Sure. \u81ea\u7531(zi4 you2 )means being independent without controls.<br \/>  \tYajie: Right. so free style should be \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3). Chris, how about having a quick review before we move to the next part?<br \/>  \tChris: I&rsquo;d love it.<br \/>  \tYajie: Okay,&nbsp; \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3) is backstroke.<br \/>  \tChris: \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3), and\u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3) is breaststroke.<br \/>  \tYajie: Right.&nbsp; \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3)&hellip; and free style would be&hellip;<br \/>  \tChris: \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3).<br \/>  \tYajie: Very good!<\/p>\n<p>  \tConversation1:<\/p>\n<p>  \tChris: Yajie, do you know how to swim?<br \/>  \tYajie: Yes I do.&nbsp;<br \/>  \tChris: But how do I ask that question in Chinese?<br \/>  \tYajie: Oh it&rsquo;s \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  \tChris: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  \tYajie: \u4f60(ni3) means you.<br \/>  \tChris: \u4f60(ni3)<br \/>  \tYajie: \u4f1a (hui4), be able to.<br \/>  \tChris: \u4f1a (hui4<br \/>  \tYajie: \u6e38\u6cf3(you2yong3), swim.<br \/>  \tChris: \u6e38\u6cf3(you2yong3)<br \/>  \tYajie: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  \tChris: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?) Do you know how to swim?<\/p>\n<p>  \tConversation2:<\/p>\n<p>  \tChris: Yajie, after swimming for such a long time, I feel a little bit tired, so I want to lay by the poolside.

Yajie, can we omit swimming like in English?
