Halfway there, and this episode might just save you from getting lost in China.

Week 5 of our 10‑week speed run is live, and today you’re locking down the words you’ll use every time you step outside: places, directions, and talking about where you live. Think where is the hospital?, how do I get to the supermarket?, I live here, and all the little positional words like in, on, under, behind that glue real sentences together. Around 30 essential New HSK 1 words, all with pinyin, English, and clear example sentences you can use right now.

Which HSK level should I record next? After we finish these 300 words of New HSK 1, I want you to choose the next level of this series. Drop a comment and tell me: New HSK 2? New HSK 3? New HSK 9? The level with the most shouts gets made first. I’ll read every single comment.
