Basic Travel Chinese

With the coming of the Beijing Olympics, China is becoming more accessible to foreign travelers. English signs are everywhere and it seems that everyone seems to speak some English. But if you want a true glimpse of China, you will have to venture away from the big cities and into the rural villages, where people will still be amazed by your colored eyes and hair and your western features. To survive in these places, you will have to learn some basic Chinese. Here are some simple phrases to help you get by.

Hello! = 你好-"ni hao"

Goodbye. = 再见-"zai jian"

My name is ___. = 我叫___.-"wo jao___."

Thank you. = 谢谢-"xie xie"

How much does it cost? = 多少钱?-"duo shao qian"

Though Delaware is the second smallest state in the Union, it has a lot to offer, and lucky for visitors, it doesn’t take long to get from one attraction to the other. Such attractions include the Governor Ross Mansion and Plantation, which gives visitors a glimpse back in time of a fully restored 19th century plantation; the historic Burton Bros. Hardware Store, circa 1893, which is still in operation today and looks much the same as it did when it first opened its doors to the public; and the Cannonball House, which showcases the state’s diverse maritime history. For shoppers, the Shipyard Shops, located along the Delaware River waterfront, offer tax-free outlet stores and a great selection of food. The Nassau Valley Vineyards are also an interesting and beautiful attraction for those who’d like to sample some of the region’s fine local wines. Since part of the state shares it’s coastline with the Atlantic Ocean, sportsmen and women alike can get their fill of deep-sea fishing and sailing through one of the local fishing charters. Or, NASCAR fans can cheer on their favorite daring drivers at the Dover Downs International Speedway. Those looking more for relaxation than excitement can simply plan for a stroll along the sandy coast, book a tour boat ride up the Delaware River, take a leisurely drive to watch the colorful leaves of fall, or a reserve a night at one of the state’s several bed and breakfasts.
