I would like to eat something

pronunciation

woh-sheyung-chih-ee-dee-are-dong-shee

Notes

• yì diǎnr dōng xī literally translates to “a little thing”, and is used to say “something”.
• When pronouncing a word before yì diǎnr, such as chī (“eat”) or hē (“drink”) it helps to try and keep the tone of the word the same as if you were saying it alone. For example, chī is a falling tone, so you would want to keep the tone falling when saying chī yì diǎnr.
