    你写得很好。但是这样会更好：这个男人不矮，他很高。我不瘦，我胖。（中文中这样的句子一般不用“是”，直接描述高矮胖瘦。）

    Very good! I can see your writing in Bopomofo, Chinese mean: 这个女人不是瘦。她是胖。 这个男人不是矮。他是高。 这个男孩不是矮。他是高。 这个女孩年纪不大。这个女孩年纪小。 你不是胖。你是瘦。 我不是瘦。我是胖。 Your writing is very good for a beginner. I only made a few changes to reflect how it might be said by a native speaker of Chinese. Good luck! 这个女人不瘦。她是胖的。 这个男人不矮。他是高的。 这个男孩不矮。他是高的。 这个女孩年纪不大。她的年纪小。 你不胖。你瘦。 我不瘦。我胖。 zhe4 ge nǚren2 bu2 shou4.
