I never would have had the imagination to come up with those connections between the Hanzi, the Pinyin, and the English word on my own.

The course focuses on pronunciation and vocabulary, which is an excellent starting point for mastering spoken Chinese. I’m curious about how the Sino-Tibetan, Germanic, Romance, and Greek languages ​​originated. I often try to imagine what it was like to name things when there were no pre-existing names—looking at a mountain and calling it “mountain,” or looking at a river and calling it “river.”

Yes you are saying it correctly in Chinese. In Chinese we don’t use “to” in front of the verb, so I think your student was commenting on English grammar rather than Chinese grammar. 😁

“Wo Yao Wan” (I want play) she said I should say….I want TO play, which is the same as we say in English. Why do you omit the word TO?
