今天
jīn tiān
Today
的
de
Of; used to link words

See breakdown →今天的活動
jīn tiān de huó dòng
Today's event

jīn tiān de huó dòng hěn rè nào
Today's event is lively

See breakdown →大家庭
dà jiā tíng
Big family; extended family
💬 [大家庭] usually means an extended family or a big family as one group, not just 'a large house with family.' It can also be used figuratively for a warm, close-knit group.

jù huì
Gathering; get-together
💬 [聚會] is a general get-together, from family gatherings to casual social events. You can combine it with many groups: [同學聚會], [公司聚會].
See breakdown →大家庭聚會
dà jiā tíng jù huì
