Hi Min Min,
The some of the pinyin in sentence 1 is wrong. liú is not the pinyin for 子, xiě is not the pinyin for 流 and le is not the pinyin for 血. Thanks
Hi Karin,
I have corrected the error. Thanks.
Hi Min Min
Every time I’ll write a message I’ll congratulate you on your work. Good Job!
Another small error for xiě (血）it should be xuè, right?
Keep up the good work!
Hi Alex,
Thanks. 谢谢。
I have corrected the 血 Pinyin.
