Synopsis

Rich in sample sentences, this essay teaches you to say, "They were all confused," "Our professor paid for us all," "I don’t like any of them," "How’s everyone at the Hong Kong office?" and "May I please have your attention." See how 皆 connects to Buddhist thought, fabric dyeing, health insurance, and eclipses.
