LCTS
About this episode

In this episode, we will be discussing a common grammatical structure in Chinese that expresses the idea of "doing two things at the same time". This structure is known as "一边......一边......" (yī biān...yī biān...) and is often used to convey coordination between actions. We will explore various examples of this structure in use.

We're always excited to hear from you. If you have any questions, comments, or additional examples to share, we'd love to hear from you.
