About

With less than 24 hours before the deadline, Susan drifted in a bubble of lightheaded fatigue as she

continued pecking away at her two-hundred page manuscript. She had been working sixteen hour days

for the last week and was starting to despair of ever finishing this project, let alone finishing it on time.

And her condition must have been obvious, because when she looked up Bryan had materialized over

her looking seriously concerned.

In today's podcast, listen to a conversation between Susan and Bryan and learn how to form simple

questions in Chinese using adjectives. Are you busy? Are you tired? Then answer these questions. The

sentence patterns and vocabulary we teach are core building blocks for mandarin fluency, so listen up,

practice our dialogue as it plays along, and you'll be speaking better Chinese in about five minutes.
