今天，我会 write about summary of what I have learnt at class.

Lesson 7 （你认识不认识他？）Do you know him?

The phrase 你认识不认识他？ is used when asking someone whether he knows that person or not.

The phrase 认识不认识 know or not know can be used simply to ask question. Other example :

忙不忙 (Busy or not busy)
去不去 (Go or not go)

The phrase 一下（yixia） meaning a bit can be used with verb. In this lesson , 我问一下 wo wen yixia is used.Other example :

Go for a bit 去一下
Wait for a bit 当一下
Look for a bit 看一下
Come for a bit 来一下

That's it.See you next time.再见！

Every Chinese character consists of three components - Initial,Final and Tone Initial is the front of word while final is at end of the word.Meanwhile tone is how high or how low a certain part of word is pronounced.
