Bài 03 - Số đếm

Written by Administrator on .

Learn to count in Chinese and to write numbers from 0 to 100 000 000.

Easy and straightforward
The Chinese counting system is fairly easy and straightforward. There are not as many number words as in English (where the numbers zero up to twenty require twenty-one different words, plus more words for the tens, e.g. 'forty').

Basic Numbers : from 1 to 10
