How to Say ‘To go for a walk’ in Simplified Chinese

散散步

sàn sàn bù

[sàn san bù]

💬 Usage Tip: Doubling the first part of 散步 softens it to "take a little stroll", which sounds relaxed and friendly. The same works with 聊天 → 聊聊天 "have a little chat". The repeated syllable is said lightly: (sàn san bù).
