Learn Chinese in the gym 2
Let's continue our Mandarin class in the real situation dialogue.

PK: 教练，能帮我调慢点吗？

GRAPHIC FLASH: 教练，能帮我调慢点吗？教练 means coach, both are the forth tones, 能 can or will, 帮我 help me do sth., 调慢点 slow down the speed a little, 吗 a question word requiring a yes or no answer, together, 教练, 能帮我调慢点吗？Will you help me slow down the speed a little?

(The coach adjusts the speed of the treadmill.)

Coach: 您看这速度可以吗？
PK: 好多了。
PK: And also remember, before you start any kind of a workout, you’d better warm up, and this is the best way to do it, plus some stretches afterwards.

(Suddenly the treadmill comes to a halt.)

PK: 为什么停了？The thing stopped. I guess I should call my coach again.

If you didn't learn Chinese in the past, join us now! Start your mandarin class right now! You will have a mandarin class in some real situation dialogues.
