ID: QW0241 Intermediate
Boom! Crash! Baa! Ruff! Today's Qing Wen is all about onomatopoeias, those wonderful words that represent sounds. While these words in English are largely restricted to comic book fights and children's books about farm animals, you'll find the appearance of such words in Chinese much more prolific. Tune in and learn how to express all your favorite sounds and noises in Mandarin!
