Description

In this episode, we’ll learn how to say where you’re doing things — like I’m studying at home, He’s eating at a restaurant, or She’s working at school. You’ll see how one small word, 在 (zài), connects places and actions in Chinese. ☕🏠🍜

Grammar:
👉 Subject + 在 + place + verb

Places:
家, 学校, 公司, 餐厅, 图书馆, 咖啡店

Examples:

  • 我在家学习。 (I’m studying at home.)

  • 她在学校工作。 (She’s working at school.)

  • 他在餐厅吃饭。 (He’s eating at a restaurant.)

  • 我在图书馆看书。 (I’m reading at the library.)

Questions:

  • 你在哪儿学习? (Where do you study?)

  • 你在哪儿工作? (Where do you work?)

  • 你在哪儿吃饭? (Where do you eat?)"
