The first one is \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3), which means backstroke. <br \/>  Chris:&nbsp; \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3)<br \/>  Yajie: Right. \u4ef0 yang3 in Chinese means lying with your face upward. So \u4ef0\u6cf3yang2 yong3 is backstroke. <br \/>  Chris: I see, \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang2gyong3). <br \/>  Yajie: And the second word is breaststroke\u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3).<br \/>  Chris:  \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 \/>  Yajie: Yes! That&rsquo;s how it gets its name! \u86d9(wa1) is short for\u9752\u86d9 (qing1wa1), frog. \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3),breaststroke.<br \/>  Chris: \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3)<br \/>  Yajie:&nbsp; Chris, I know besides backstroke, you are also good at free style. But do you know how to say that in Chinese? <br \/>  Chris: I guess it&rsquo;s \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3), right?<br \/>  Yajie: Very good! But we&rsquo;d better explain it for our listeners. <br \/>  Chris: Sure. \u81ea\u7531(zi4 you2 )means being independent without controls. <br \/>  Yajie:  Right. so free style should be \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3). Chris, how a<em><\/em>bout  having a quick review before we move to the next part? <br \/>  Chris: I&rsquo;d love it. <br \/>  Yajie: Okay,&nbsp; \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3) is backstroke. <br \/>  Chris: \u4ef0\u6cf3(yang3gyong3), and\u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3) is breaststroke.<br \/>  Yajie: Right.&nbsp; \u86d9\u6cf3(wa1yong3)&hellip; and free style would be&hellip;<br \/>  Chris: \u81ea\u7531\u6cf3(zi4 you2 yong3).<br \/>  Yajie: Very good!<\/p>\n<p>  Conversation1:<\/p>\n<p>Chris: Yajie, do you know how to swim?<br \/>  Yajie: Yes I do.&nbsp; <br \/>  Chris: But how do I ask that question in Chinese?<br \/>  Yajie: Oh it&rsquo;s \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  Chris: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  Yajie: \u4f60(ni3) means you. <br \/>  Chris: \u4f60(ni3)<br \/>  Yajie: \u4f1a (hui4), be able to.<br \/>  Chris: \u4f1a (hui4<br \/>  Yajie: \u6e38\u6cf3(you2yong3), swim. <br \/>  Chris: \u6e38\u6cf3(you2yong3)<br \/>  Yajie: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?)<br \/>  Chris: \u4f60\u4f1a\u6e38\u6cf3\u5417\uff1f(ni3 hui4 you2yong3 ma?) Do you know how to swim?<\/p>\n<p>Conversation2:<\/p>\n<p>Chris: 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?
