About

Hi, I am Antoine, 22 years old, and currently majoring in Chinese Studies at Berlin University. I only started in 2008, but learning Chinese has quickly become my passion.

One of the things I enjoy most is learning about Chengyu and seeing how to use them in context. But Everytime I looked for Chengyu stories online, I only found half-hearted sites that didn’t really give me what I needed – and this is why I decided to put up this site and add those cute idioms, one by one. Some day you should find a nice collection here!

I’d be happy to hear your feedback, ideas or your favourite Chengyu that have not been featured on this site yet. Email me at info (at) chinese-chengyu (dot) com.

Please don’t be too upset about the ads on the site. ChinesePod is a genuine recommendation, and I only mean to cover domain and hosting expenses. I think it’s a fair deal considering you get to read my work for free and I am a student who does not have the time to get a full-time job yet :)
