About this lesson

The climb goes from a plain textbook "I'm very happy" to the bubbly phrase friends really say when joy overflows.

How to practise

  1. Watch each rung's card: the level, when to use it, and the phrase with its pinyin and English.
  2. Repeat every rung out loud in the 跟读 · Your turn pause, from HSK 1 up to the native way.
  3. Then climb it in one go, and comment which rung you're on.
