팁과 요령 (4)

💡

Keep it simple

Don't overcomplicate. Stick to SVO.

💡

Start with the verb

When in doubt, start your sentence with the action. It's the most natural way to speak.

The People Rule

Always use 'Pen' when talking about people and their roles.

Keep it flat

Mee has a mid-tone. Don't let your voice rise or fall too much.
