🎧 Why Do Tones Matter in Pinyin?
Imagine trying to bake a cake without knowing whether it needs flour or sugar—same word, totally different meaning! In Mandarin, tones are your secret ingredient. There are four main tones (and a neutral one), each changing the meaning of a syllable:
• **Tone 1**: High and flat (like singing "Do" in *Do Re Mi*) 🎶
• **Tone 2**: Rising, like asking "What?" 😮
• **Tone 3**: Falling then rising, like saying "Hmm..." 🤔
• **Tone 4**: Sharp fall, like stating "No!" 🚫
Now here’s where gloves come in—they’re perfect for visualizing these tone shapes! 🙌
