Hi, 

 

I just started learning chinese on my own and tried translating a few english sentences into chinese. Could any of you lovely souls check if it's correct? I would really appreciate it. Thanks! 

 

Were you busy today? Zuótiān máng ma?

 

It's quite cold today. Jīntiān hěn lěng

 

It's gotten cold today. Jīntiān lěng le!

 

Is Li nervous? Xiǎo Li jínzhāng ma?

 

She is nervous. Hěn jǐnzhāng.

 

I am too. Wǒ yě hěn jǐnzhāng.

 

I didn't feel well yesterday. Zuótiān bu hǎo.

 

I'm better now. Xiànzài hǎo le.

 

I'm not very hunry. Bú tài è.

 

I'm ok now, but I was nervous before. Xiànzài hěn hǎo, cóngqián jǐnzhāng le.

 

Are you thirsty or not? Kě bu kě?

 

Are you comfortable? Shūfu ma?

 

I'm not hungry anymore. Xiànzài bú è le.

 

You are wrong. Bú duì.

Is Li nervous? Xiǎo Li jínzhāng ma?

She is nervous. Hěn jǐnzhāng.

I am too. Wǒ yě hěn jǐnzhāng.

If this is one dialogue, it's good. If the second sentence would be on its own, you can add tā to make clear who's nervous.

 

I didn't feel well yesterday. Zuótiān bu hǎo.

I'd say Wǒ zuótiān shēntǐ bù shūfu.

 

I'm ok now, but I was nervous before. Xiànzài hěn hǎo, cóngqián jǐnzhāng le.

I'd say Wǒ xiànzài hái hǎo. Cóngqián is a lot further in the past than seems to be meant here, perhaps use gāngcái (just now) or yǐqián (before). Also I don't think you need le here.

 

Are you thirsty or not? Kě bu kě?

You can add Nǐ. Also, Kě bù kě  is not wrong, but I would use Nǐ kě ma? (Actually I'd use Nǐ xiǎng hē diǎn shénme ma, but that's not what you're asking.)

 

Well done, keep at it!
