The #Chinese particle 呢 ne is used to turn questions around much like English “how about?” 我想要点茶。你呢? Wǒ xiǎng yàodiǎn chá. Nǐ ne? I’d like some tea. How about you? #ChineseGrammar #Mandarin #QuestionParticles. https://thelanguagegarage.com/chinese-question-particles/

As you may know;
#English and Americans (non indigenous) are not known for being multilingual.

1) #French: Mais petre tu parlez un petit pois de fraincais. Non?
2) #German: Sprechen zie deutch?
3) #Mandarin: Ni Hao (Hello)
4) #Zulu: Jumbo (Hello)
etc.

My Tibetan and Sanskrit are probably even worse. (a few mantra)

We elderlings have learned a little here and there and still end up barely able to remember our native tonguing

xie-xie   🥰

In the UK, Keir Starmer has few fans. I learned that in China it’s a very different story

The prime minister’s meal in a Yunnan restaurant in Beijing has spawned a national menu. The man has, bizarrely, become a phenomenon, says cartoonist and author Martin Rowson

Streaks colliding! 100 days on Lingodeer (Mandarin and Spanish), meeting 765 days on Duolingo the day before my subscription expires!

Not sure if I will keep my Duolingo streak alive. I have been doing French, Mandarin, Spanish, & Italian. But the Mandarin and Spanish are so much better on Lingodeer. Better activities, better than pronunciation, and less gimmicky stuff. I don't need everything gamified. I'm partial to surrendering that which is not serving me.
