Multilingualism is a unique characteristic of Singaporeans and usually takes root through practised BILINGUALISM in the form of the common language (English) and one’s Mother Tongue (Chinese in my case).

1. 宣布 (xuān bù) – Verb: Announce something publicly.
2. 断言 (duàn yán) – Verb: Assert something with confidence.
3. 声明 (shēng míng) – Verb: Declare something formally.
4. 呼喊 (hū hǎn) – Verb: Exclaim or shout something out loud.
5. 表达 (biǎo dá) – Verb: Express a thought or feeling clearly.
6. 提到 (tí dào) – Verb: Mention something briefly.
7. 宣告 (xuān gào) – Verb: Proclaim or make a formal announcement.
8. 评论 (píng lùn) – Verb: Remark or comment on something.
9. 建议 (jiàn yì) – Verb: Suggest or propose an idea.
10. 说出 (shuō chū) – Verb: Utter something, speak out.

This list of ten verbs is based on the very first post on this platform ‘Vocabulary That ‘Talks’’, redone in Chinese. A good start to bilingualism if any! 💬
