When introducing yourself in Chinese, you might want to talk about where you’re from and which languages you speak. Chinese names of countries and languages are quite different from English, so make sure to memorize at least those that are most important to you.

This lesson is part of the chapter “Learning Chinese (Mandarin)“.
