Family (as a whole) vs family members
Jiātíng vs jiārén
I grew up in a very traditional
Chinese family
Wǒ shì zài yí ge hěn chuántǒng de zhōngguó jiātíng lǐ zhǎng dà de
My family (members) all live in Hong Kong
Wǒ de jiārén dōu zhù zài xiānggǎng
A member of the family
Jiātíng de yìyuán
Indeed, truly (has to be used in reference to confirming something that has already been said)
Quèshí
I saw the girl you mentioned last time - she’s indeed very pretty
Wǒ jiàndào nǐ shàng cì tídào de nàge gūniang le, quèshí hěn piàoliang
(If) Verb for a while, then…
Verb jiǔ le, jiù…
If I look at my computer for a long time, my eyes will be uncomfortable
Rúguǒ wǒ kàn diànnǎo kàn jiǔ le, yǎnjīng jiù huì bù shūfu
Pet
chǒngwù
She became a member of a choir group
Tā chéngwéi le héchàngtuán de yìyuán
But when I said half of the sentence, I changed my thought
Dànshì jùzi shuōdào yí bàn de shíhou, wǒ gǎibiàn le xiǎngfǎ
Feelings /
Love, attachment, affection
Gǎnqíng
To hurt one’s feelings
Shāng gǎnqíng
Just like your family members, there is love
Jiù gēn nǐ de jiārén yíyàng, shì yǒu gǎnqíng de
Although they’ve (already) been together for many years, their love (relationship) has always been very good
Suīrán tāmen liǎ zài yìqǐ yǐjīng hěnduō nián le, dànshì liǎng de rén gǎnqíng yìzhí dōu hěn hǎo
