真正认识她的人, 都会把她当作宝; 我们都会站在她这一边. 你不懂得珍惜, 那是你的损失! 你好自为之. Anyone can help to translate into Chinese? No Google translator pleases. Thanks!

I've recently begun studying Chinese independently. My school doesn't offer Chinese classes, so I've been using the vast stockpile of free internet resources. Quizlet for studying and learning the pronounciation (Quizlet's speak function can handle 汉字 and I check the pinyin tones on each word I put on a list with tiktionary to make sure I'm learning it right. Some .pdf files I've found for practicing written Chinese that have practice squares and stroke order guides. ETC... I think I'm studying well, but I get tripped up on a few things regarding verb usage... When forming sentences with verbs that have multiple ways to be written, which do you use? For Example: The sentence, "I Study Chemistry," could be written either, "我学化学，" or, "我学习化学。" Both mean essentially the same thing, only difference is that the verb is more specific in the expanded sentence. Does this make the statement more formal and if so, would informal spoken Chinese take preference to the contracted form? Is there is a specific time/situation where one is preferred? I need an answer to this as soon I can find one, because this seems to happen with just about every verb I've learned so far, with the exception of a few like 是. Like the verb for to know/to understand/to recognize, would you use, "认, 识, or 认识?" “我认化学," "我识化学," or, "我认识化学?" Please Help! Thanks in Advance!

I moved to Canada from China when I was five years old, so I never went to school there. I never learned how to read or write Chinese, and now I really want to, but I can never remember all the characters. Plus, I'm in high school so I don't have a lot of time with school and piano and volleyball. Any ideas?

I notice 起来, 下来, 出来, 过来, etc. often do not have literal translations in English. What is their function? I'm not refering to their meanings of "come down," "go up," etc. I'm talking about when they appear at the end of a sentence and don't have any specific English translation. How and when should they be used? I think there may also be other examples besides the four that I mentioned. Thanks for your help.

How do you say good day in Chinese?

I'm a female and I'd like to what I can say to get my points acrossed. How do you say: I'd like to get my hair trimmed. Just cutting a few inches and no styling. I'd like to get my hair layered. I prefer my hair thinned out at the ends. I'm trying to grow my hair long so I would not like any layers but to even out my hair length. I'd like to highlight my hair / I'd like to dye my hair. Appreciate the help! Thanks.
