    Best answer

    Hi deniserxsseline, I am a Chinese native speaker. The first tone in Mandarin is a flat tone, which sounds like ''a'' when you go to see the dentist and they let you open your mouth. The second tone is a rising tone, the intonation is similar to that of the English word ''what'' when you've got surprised. Hope you can feel that. Anything else you would like to know, please feel free to ask me. Cheers.

    Here is a public platform ,better mind your words. People are different, some are good ,some are bad, that is because of their characters, not because they are CCP.

  • Each character in a sentence is only one word?
    Best answer

    Not always. 在 一个 句子 中,不是 所有的 汉字 都 代表 一个 词语。We don't use space keys between words like English. But if we add them, a sentence is like above. A beginner might get confused how to distinguish a word in a sentence, like"一个"is a word while "个句" is not a word. Don't get frustrated. A beginner always has different kinds of questions whichever language he learns. Once you keep learning, such confusions just go away. A good teacher can help you get improved faster. Good luck!
