Grammar

Grammar rule #1: “想 + Verb” (want to do something)
Use 想 before a verb to say you want to do an action.
It is common in polite daily conversation when ordering food or making plans.
Place the verb right after it (e.g., “想喝”, “想吃”).

Examples:
我们想喝茶。
也想吃饺子。

Grammar rule #2: “有 + Noun + 吗？” (asking if something exists/there is)
Use 有 to ask whether a place has something or whether something exists.
Add 吗 at the end to make it a yes/no question.
This pattern is very useful for asking about services like Wi‑Fi, bathrooms, or menus.

Examples:
这里有无线网络吗？
有。
