(I am not bragging that our garden is probably the best in town.)

tā kuā kǒu shuō zì jǐ shì quán wēi.

(He boasts that he is an authority.)

bù shì wǒ chuī niú, wǒ què shí néng jiǎng
             ,                   
liù zhǒng yǔ yán.
            言。

Lesson 168 – Dialogue — Introduce yourself


Hello, everyone. Welcome back. This is Baixue’s Chinese Language Learning Program. It’s been a long time. I was asked by our friends from Youtube if I can speak some Chinese dialogue sentences using normal talking speed. So, today, we will have a dialogue about introducing ourselves in a normal talking speed.
