Summary: Learn how to write & pronounce the Chinese symbol (character) for loveseat in this free Chinese language lesson on video.
"Now let's know more about sofa, "sha fa", because I am going to teach you the Chinese word for one seat, or two-seat sofa: "danren", "shuang ren sha fa" So, this part is one seat. "Shuang ren" is two seat. Sofa -"sha fa". So, in English it is "one seat". In Chinese actually it literally means "dan" is single or one and "ren" means person. So in Chinese the word meaning becomes one person, or two people sofa. Also easy to understand. Let's just learn "dan ren", "shuang ren". "Shuang" means two or double, bi. "Dan" is single, one. Follow me to practice. "Dan ren sha fa" - one seat sofa. "Shuang ren sha fa" two seat sofa."

Please include or specify in the title that the Chinese characters taught are simplified.
If possible it would be great to have the traditional version of the character included in videos such as this as well.
