Chinese in Current Affairs--0011(Sentence:030-032):"How to say "ECB Rises Rate -- China Textiles In EU -- Tibetan Language Mobile Phone"

LISTEN TO TEXT


Hi, friends, today one of my dreams to be true on this page -- you can check the new words on the web site in a new window. I mean that when your mouse touches the new words that I have explained for you, then, you can find their Chinese word classes, pronunciations -- Chinese Pinyin and their meaning in Chinese. You can read them follow me and find the formal signs of the tones as well.

I do appreciate the great support of my technology supporter’s. I would like to thank Mr. Thomas Michalski (U.S.A.) offers his wonderful photography works for this page as well.

I really hope the new effort is helpful to your Chinese learning. :-)

Note: Please hit any Chinese word to see its Chinese pinyin, meaning and pronunciation
