In this episode, we’ll dive into three important types of Chinese words—褒义词 (positive words), 贬义词 (negative words), and 中性词 (neutral words). Understanding these can help you avoid awkward situations and express yourself more naturally in Chinese. I’ll share useful examples like 努力, 自私, and 吃饭, and show you how connotation really matters in Chinese communication. Let’s learn and have fun together!
