This resource is for folks who want to have a conversation with their Chinese friends or family about COVID-19. At the moment, misinformation about the pandemic is running rampant in all languages. That means we all have a part to play in cooling panic and relaying the facts.
Here's the Mandarin Chinese vocabulary you'll need to explain the importance of social distancing. (Bonus: It's also great if you and grandma are feeling gossipy and just want to tsk-tsk about certain world leaders.)
Note: If you have loved ones who primarily consume news and media in another language, do consider compiling a glossary of your own -- and making it available to others. Intergenerational communication is really important right now!
