Features: The oral Chinese textbook series You Say, I Say, We Say is a course designed for beginners, offering a structured yet rapid progression in teaching oral Chinese. This textbook aims to cultivate learners' communicative competence in spoken Chinese, with materials focusing on commonly used vocabulary and sentence patterns (or syntactic structures) in spoken interactions. The distribution of vocabulary and grammar points is based on references such as The Standards and Syllabus for Chinese Language Proficiency Levels (Trial Version), The HSK Syllabus, and The HSK Common Vocabulary List. It can be used for classroom instruction or self-study. The textbook follows the principle of integrating structure, function, and culture. The lessons emphasize providing cultural information related to China's national conditions and reflect the latest developments in Chinese society. The integration of structure, function, and culture is the best approach to developing learners' communicative competence in the target language and a fundamental method for improving language teaching quality. How to organically combine these three elements and how to make specific arrangements at different teaching stages are topics of serious exploration in the field of teaching Chinese as a foreign language. The efforts made here hope to contribute to this exploration.
