044 Chinese characters: 夏(xia-summer)|The first Chinese dynasty

In this video, we’ll explore the Chinese character 夏 (Xià) by looking at its historical evolution and its connection to the Xia Dynasty and Yu the Great. We’ll then learn three useful words that includes 夏 (Xià). Finally, we’ll use these words in a sentence and explain the grammar structure “每(měi)...都(dōu)...” to help you build more natural Chinese sentences. Through this video, you’ll see how learning Chinese can start from a single character, expand into words, and then grow into full sentences with meaning and context.
