About this listen
In this lesson, you'll learn how Chinese small talk really works—from everyday openers like "你吃饭了吗?" (Have you eaten?) to quick check-ins about work/study, hometown/老乡, transportation, health, and holidays. You'll also learn how to deflect questions that are too personal and intrusive.
