このコンテンツについて

In this lesson, you’ll learn how to politely decline invitations that you must reject first in Mandarin—like “留下来吃饭吧” (Please stay for dinner)—and why saying “yes” right away can sometimes create confusion. Through real-life stories and ready-to-use phrases, we’ll explore how Chinese social customs, like giving and saving face (面子), shape the way invitations are made and refused. Perfect for learners who want to go beyond the literal meaning of words and understand the cultural “social dance” behind them.

✅ Your Action Steps:

  1. Think about how you usually respond when invited to something in Chinese—do you accept immediately, or do you politely refuse first? Try using “不用了” (That’s not necessary) or “太麻烦你了” (That would be too much trouble for you) next time.
