<!-- (Audio) Wang Hua: 我是中国人 (wǒ shì zhōng guó rén)。你是设计师吗 (nǐ shì shè jì shī ma) -->
# --description--
Wang Hua is asking another question. Pay attention to how she forms the question.
# --instructions--
Listen to the audio and answer the question below.
# --questions--
## --text--
What does Wang Hua ask about?
## --answers--
The other person's nationality.
### --feedback--
She says her own nationality, but her question is about another aspect.
---
Liu Ming's age.
### --feedback--
There's no mention of age in this dialogue.
---
Liu Ming's job.
---
Liu Ming's name.
### --feedback--
She doesn't ask for a name.
## --video-solution--
3
# --explanation--
`吗 (ma)` is a question particle. It's put at the end of a declarative sentence to turn it into a question, just like adding a question mark (?) to a sentence in English to make it a question.
Wang Hua is forming a question by adding `吗 (ma)` at the end of a declarative sentence `你是设计师 (nǐ shì shè jì shī)。` This indicates that she is asking for confirmation about Liu Ming's profession as a designer.

Listen to the audio and complete the sentence below.
# --fillInTheBlank--
## --sentence--
`BLANK BLANK 你 (nǐ),王华 (wáng huá)。`

`很高兴 (hěn gāo xìng)`
### --feedback--
This phrase means "very happy".
---
`认识 (rèn shì)`
### --feedback--
This means "to know" or "to meet".
# --explanation--
`很高兴认识你 (hěn gāo xìng rèn shì nǐ)` means "Nice to meet you." It's a common phrase used when meeting someone for the first time. It shows politeness and friendliness.
An interesting note is that the subject "I" is often omitted in this expression, as it's understood from the context that the speaker is referring to themselves. You can also say `我很高兴认识你 (wǒ hěn gāo xìng rèn shì nǐ)`, which conveys the same meaning as the version without `我 (wǒ)`.

<!-- GRAMMAR -->
# --description--
Congratulations! You're almost done with this module.
The article below will help you review some key grammar points covered in the tasks, so you can feel confident before taking the Module Quiz.
Once you've read it, just mark the task as complete and move on to the next part of the review.
## Grammar Highlights
### Ask Questions and Answers
#### Using `请问 (qǐng wèn)` to Ask Questions Politely
`请问 (qǐng wèn)` means "excuse me" or "may I ask". It's a polite way to start a question and is commonly used to show respect. Examples:
- `请问你叫什么名字 (qǐng wèn nǐ jiào shén me míng zi)` Excuse me, what is your name?
- `请问 (qǐng wèn),你是设计师吗 (nǐ shì shè jì shī ma)` Excuse me, are you a designer?
<br />
#### Forming a Question with `吗 (ma)`
Adding the particle `吗 (ma)` to the end of a declarative sentence makes it a question. Examples:
- Declarative: `你是设计师 (nǐ shì shè jì shī)。` You are a designer.
- Question: `你是设计师吗 (nǐ shì shè jì shī ma)` Are you a designer?
<br />
#### Giving a Positive or Negative Answer
There're two ways to answer a question made with `吗 (ma)`. The positive answer is `是的 (shì de)`, which means "yes" or "that's right". The negative answer is `不是 (bù shì)`, which means "no" or "is not". Examples:
Speaker A: `你是设计师吗 (nǐ shì shè jì shī ma)` Are you a designer?
Speaker B: `是的 (shì de),我是设计师 (wǒ shì shè jì shī)。` Yes, I am a designer. / `我不是设计师 (wǒ bù shì shè jì shī)。` I'm not a designer.
<br />
#### Asking Follow-up Questions with `你呢 (nǐ ne)`
`你呢 (nǐ ne)` is a natural way to ask the person you're speaking to a question about a previously mentioned topic, meaning "How about you?" or "And you?". Examples:
- `我是中国人 (wǒ shì zhōng guó rén)。你呢 (nǐ ne)` I am Chinese. And you?
- `我是数据分析师 (wǒ shì shù jù fēn xī shī)。你呢 (nǐ ne)` I'm a data analyst. How about you?
<br />
### Using `我叫 (wǒ jiào)` to Introduce Your Name
`我叫 (wǒ jiào)` + name is a commonly used structure to introduce someone's name, similar to `我是 (wǒ shì)` + name. It means "I am called..." or "My name is...".
<br />
### Using `你是 (nǐ shì)` to Talk About Someone you're Speaking to
Just as you use `我是 (wǒ shì)` to describe yourself, you can use `你是 (nǐ shì)` to talk about the person you are speaking to. This structure works with names, nationalities, and professions:
- `你是刘明吗 (nǐ shì liú míng ma)` Are you Liu Ming?
- `你是新加坡人吗 (nǐ shì xīn jiā pō rén ma)` Are you Singaporean?
- `你是开发者 (nǐ shì kāi fā zhě)。` You are a developer.
<br />
### Other Useful Expressions
`很高兴认识你 (hěn gāo xìng rèn shì nǐ)` is a common phrase used when meeting someone for the first time. It means "Nice to meet you." The natural response to this is `我也是 (wǒ yě shì)` which means "likewise".
