Lesson Transcript

Hello everyone. Welcome to Chinese weekly words. 大家好！我们又见面了！ And this week, we are going to talk about… what? Life events.
出生(chūshēng) means ”to be born"
我是7月出生的。(Wǒ shì qī yuè chūshēng de.)"My birthday is in July."
毕业(bìyè) is ”graduation"
她的父母去参加了她的毕业典礼。(Tā de fùmǔ qù cānjiā le tā de bìyè diǎnlǐ.)"Her parents went to her graduation ceremony."
Okay, 下一个是:工作(gōngzuò) "to work”, or “job"
我的第一份工作是老师。(Wǒ de dì yī fèn gōngzuò shì lǎoshī.)"My first job is to be a teacher."
订婚(dìnghūn)"engage"
我最好的朋友订婚了。(Wǒ zuì hǎo de péngyǒu dìnghūn le.)"My best friend got engaged."
死(sǐ) is ”to die"
我不想死。(Wǒ bù xiǎng sǐ.) means ”I don’t want to die."
Also because the pronunciation of number four is 四(sì), it’s very close to 死(sǐ) in China, number 4 is not a very lucky word.
So that’s the end. We talked about life events. I hope you guys enjoyed this video and I will be here with you next week. 再见！
