以下是自我介绍的基本句型。注意说名字的两种方式：
Read this conversation between two people meeting for the first time. Notice how they greet each other and exchange names.
阅读两个人第一次见面的对话。注意他们如何互相问候和交换名字。
In Chinese, the verb 是 (shì) never changes form — you use the same word for "I am," "you are," and "he is." But in English, the verb "to be" changes depending on the subject: am, are, is. This is one of the biggest differences!
在中文里，动词“是”永远不变——“我是”“你是”“他是”都用同一个字。但在英语里，“to be”会根据主语变化：am, are, is。这是最大的区别之一！
| English | Short Form | 中文 |
|---|---|---|
| I am | I'm | 我是 (wǒ shì) |
| You are | You're | 你是 (nǐ shì) |
| He is | He's | 他是 (tā shì) |
| She is | She's | 她是 (tā shì) |
