    You write is good. But in mandarin, we don't say "is" before abjectival word, for example, "zhe ge nv ren shou." "ta bu pang." The other one thing is age, it is "nian ji". At last, it is a little problem. The sentence is" ta bu shi nan ji da." in mandarin, we will say "ta nian ji bu da." that is all. Good job!

    You work is good, but there is one thing that you need to pay attention to.It is that in chinese wo don't use 'shi' as a verb when using he or she as a subject. So when you do such exercises just use he or she as subject, you could don't translate 'is' into chinese, it can omite 'shi' all right. Try more, I believe you can do well.

    Very nice! Go ahead! Notice the word 'shi', don't put it before the adjective when the subject before the word 'shi', another status we can put. ta shi a ge mei li de nv ren.
