Did you know that one little word like 聽 (tīng) can express seven different meanings in Mandarin? 👂 In this episode, Mindy and Joeru break down the differences between 聽, 聽了, 沒聽, 聽到, 沒聽到, 聽得到, and 聽不到

You’ll learn how to tell the difference between:
✅ listening vs. hearing

✅ ability vs. result
And you’ll walk away ready to describe what you can (and can’t!) hear — all in Mandarin.
