Thank you for viewing. This is a basic textbook perfect for learning Chinese, with a focus on practical expressions. There are some notes written in the first half of the book as it was used in university. I recommend this book to those who don't mind the notes, as they may be helpful. - Title: Standard Chinese Basics: Connecting with 1.4 Billion People, Basic Edition - Authors: Naoki Kōbayashi, Kotomi Miyajima, Wang Mu - Publisher: Hakuteisha - Number of pages: Approximately 200 pages
