Can I get some basic Chinese (Mandarin) phrases?
I'm very basic in Chinese. I can't read it at all but want to know some pronunciations.
Things like Hi, Bye, Thank You, and other things.

你好: hello (pronounced as: "knee" - "hau")
再見: goodbye (pronounced as "tzai" - "jee - an")
謝謝: thank you (pronounced as "shee - yeh" - "shee - yeh")
Words with " are to separate the syllables from the word itself, and the syllables are broken down for you. Remember to read them together if they are in the same quotation marks.
What other things would you like to know?
