How to Say ‘Your school is very famous.’ in Simplified Chinese
你们学校很有名
nǐ men xué xiào hěn yǒu míng
[nee-men xuéxiào hen yǒumíng]
💬 Usage Tip: No 是 is needed before an adjective, and 很 here mostly just completes the sentence rather than meaning "very". Swap in another adjective: 你们学校很大 "Your school is big".
🇨🇳 In China: Opening with praise for the employer's reputation is a safe, expected first reason in a Chinese interview. Follow it with something about yourself so it doesn't sound like flattery alone.
