Talk:Chinese (Mandarin)/Lesson 8

Change topic of this conversation
I would suggest changing the topic of the conversation, as "what is your name" is already a lesson in another lesson. Does anyone have any ideas?86.137.109.142 11:15, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Please be sure to watch the tones shenme (what) is the second tone - not third tone.

I don't think Chinese would say Ni hao ma
I'm a Chinese and I never said 你好吗 once. Most Chinese just say 你好 and reply with the same, instead of a question.

However, 你好吗 can be used as the translation of "How are you?", "元気", etc.--LimSoo-jung (discuss • contribs) 14:34, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
