【Learn Chinese】Transportation in China: Air and Water
 
Time to fly high into the sky. To fly in Chinese is 飞 fēi. Let’s touch the sky and learn some more transport in Chinese:
 
Aeroplane – 飞机 fēi jī (literally fly machine)
Whilst we are on 飞机, the word for airport is 飞机场 fēijī chǎng.
Helicopter – 直升机 zhíshēng jī
Hot Air Balloon – 热气球 rè qìqiú
Jet – 喷气机 pēnqì jī
Rocket – 火箭 huǒjiàn
 
From high in the sky, to way down below. Time to hit the water and discover some more forms of transportation in Chinese.
Boat – 船 chuán
Container Ship – 集装箱船 jízhuāngxiāng chuán (bit of a mouthful that one)
Cruise Ship – 游轮 yóulún
Sailboat – 帆船 fānchuán
Submarine – 潜艇 qiántǐng
