Mandarin · Chapter 21 · Lesson 17 · Phrase session

The rest of the everyday phrases

The short ones that do not belong to any one situation and come up in all of them.

Why these go together

没关系 is worth the session on its own. It answers 对不起 the way English answers sorry with no worries, and a conversation where someone apologises and gets silence back is a conversation that has gone slightly wrong.

  • 没关系。

    It does not matter.

    Literally: no connection

  • 很远。

    It is far.

  • 就在旁边。

    It is right next door.

  • 请再说一次。

    Please say that again.

  • 再见。

    Goodbye.

    Literally: again see

  • 晚安。

    Good night.
