COURSERA ASSIGNMENT 2

The second week lesson is about a time. As usual i some of new vocabularies at the first page. The vocabulary is explained in a great way, because there's an audio thatwe can hear to make my way on pronouce the words more similar or close to correct. Other than audio, the cours also write the new words in english and the meaning of them.

 

In this lesson i also get the Chinese number from one to ten and how they pronounced.

Right after the numbers, the course provide a video about how to express numbers and time. I will learn how to count to 10. Numbers in Chinese are actually not very complicated. As long as you know how to count to 10, you can count to 99. Just like us, the way Chinese people say number and time is different, for me it is more complicated that what i've learnt in American numbers because the way Chinese number pronounced is smiliar but completly different in meaning. The video also talk about time or how we say  and ask time in Chinese.

As the video ended, there's quizes but i only can do the free ones.

The second video is about tone mark and how to pronounced them. In Chinese language there's four syllables of tone mark. The first tone is high level one. The second tone is rising one. The third tone is falling rising. The fourth tone is fallin. So the video also taught some of the alphabets or pinyin pronounced e.g :  A,O,E,I,U with their tone mark.

The next are about discussion topic practice to write when will i have my class and the optional material for write the text in conversation.

As the course have two session a week, here is the second one. This lesson is about the date and as always i will have some new words to memorize.

This video is about how to express months and days. In Chinese, they say the month first and then the date. For example, September 10th and  remember that in Chinese sentences, i to need pause a time before the verb of a phrase. For exmple in question, i need to put a pause before the question mark.

After the video, there's a practice quiz, cultural tips, disscusion prompt about travel schedule, writen text as optional material and Chinese characters.
