Lesson 26 – Colors in Chinese

Hello, everyone. It is so nice to see you again today. This is Baixue’s Chinese Language Learning Program. Last time, we learned week days and months in mandarin Chinese. Today, we are going to learn colors in mandarin Chinese.

Before we start to colors in mandarin, we need to check the homework I gave to you last time.
