"are" in English sounds like "she" "是" in Chinese. (In this sentence, you don't have to read it.)

"you" in English sounds like the word of "Knee" "你" in Chinese.

The order of the sentence is reversed from English.
1. "你" sounds like "Knee".
2. "幾" sounds like "Gee".
3. "歲" sounds like "shield=ld= Shie"

Thus, " How old are you? " sounds like "Knee Gi Shea? BeV doesn't sound anything here.

Knee+Gee +


Shield-ld = 你幾歲? (Chinese)

= Knee  Gee   Shie






Then, how to say, "I am eight years old." in Chinese?

"I" sounds like the English word, "wall". 我

"am " sounds like the English word, "she".是 (But beV, you don't have to read in Chinese.)

"eight" sounds like the English word, "Bob-b" 八

"years old" sounds like the English word, "Shield-ld" 歲


WallBob-bShield-ld = Wall  Bob-b   Shie 我八歲.

    English                          Chinese sound

Chinese characters: 我八歲. 

How old are you? :   Knee  Gee   Shie?
                                    你幾歲?

" 
how(sound) =Good 
I'm fine.= "Wall   hen   how"  in Chinese .


shake


shake

knee




Thank you. = "Shake-shake knee"




"I'm fine" sounds like "Wall, hen, how.


"very" sounds like "hen"

In fact, "wall  hen  how" means more like "I am very well."

"Thank you." sounds like "shake -shake knee", but 

"shake" has to minus "k" sound. Thus, we can say, 

"Thanks."= "Shake-shake - sound k".(Please read the red part of "Shake=Shake". 

"Thank you." = "Shake-k, Shake-k,  knee."

Some people think the sound of "shit-shit knee." is easier to remember.

"shit-shit knee" in Chinese = Thank you. "in English.

Now let's speak the whole sentence, "I'm fine, thank you. or "I'm very well, thank you." in Chinese.

"wall   hen   how,  shit  shit  knee. "
