I’ve been reading the first book of 西游记 Journey to the West, 猴王的诞生, Rise of the Monkey King. Here a few words I learned, especially simple or widely used:

  • 哭，ku1, cry
  • 喊，han3, shout
  • 流, liu2, flow (water)
  • 简单, jian3 dan1, simple (definitely seen before)
  • 祖师, zu3 shi1, founder/master

你呢？

    因为，虽然, 所以 - all the logical phrasing words. It’s pretty neat the way it makes you think differently than english because you say the cause, then the effect. I’m using HelloChinese and love it. I also recommend 小猪佩奇 (mandarin subbed & dubbed peppa pig)
