Y: Now let’s review. Today we learned how to say another five more numbers in Chinese.
And they are 6 7 8 9 10 (liù qī bā jiǔ shí).
C: 6 7 8…(liù qī bā). Sorry, I can’t follow you. 6 (liù) is six, and 7(qī) is seven, 8 (bā) is
eight. How do you say nine and ten again?
Y: nine is 9 (jiǔ) in Chinese. 9 (jiǔ).
C: 9 (jiǔ).
Y: And ten is 10 (shí). The second tone, 10 (shí).
C: 10 (shí).
Y: Right. We also learned some phrases. How do you say six books?
C: Let me see. Is it六本书(liù běn shū)?
Y: Well done. It is 六本书. Then how do you say eight o’clock?
C: It’s八点(bā diǎn). 点(diǎn) here means o’clock.
Y: And nine o’clock is?
C: It’s九点. (jiǔ diǎn)
Y: What about ten o’clock?
C: Is it十点 (shí diǎn)?
