Mr. Wang Works at the University

A very short, very easy, Chinese passage about a fictional teacher at Beijing University, suitable for newer readers. You’ll learn a couple of interesting Chinese abbreviations for some of the biggest and most famous universities in Beijing, and a few school-centric words. Not a whole lot of compelling narrative here, and not much of a stunning conclusion, but good practice nonetheless.

I have been looking for a site that does exactly what this one does for a very long time. It has taken over three months for me to find a site that is this helpful and useful. Thank you so much for what you have done.

What a pity that I did not know this website earlier, I am sure I would have learnt Chinese much better. Thanks so much for what you have done!

Could someone please explain what is the function of 有 in this sentence? 他是一位非常有经验的法语老师

De zin betekent: ‘Hij is een leraar Frans die heel veel ervaring heeft.’ Dus die 有 slaat op ervaring hebben. 有经验的老师 = een leraar die ervaring heeft.
