我喜欢学习
wǒ xǐhuan xuéxi
I love learning · trad. 我喜歡學習
我喜欢学习 (wǒ xǐhuān xuéxí) is a common and straightforward way to express 'I love learning' or 'I like to learn' in Mandarin Chinese. It's suitable for discussing your interests, hobbies, or educational pursuits.
What does 我喜欢学习 (wǒ xǐhuan xuéxi) mean?
我喜欢学习 (wǒ xǐhuan xuéxi) means “I love learning” in English. Word for word, it breaks down as “I like study/learn.”
When to use it
Neutral. 喜欢 (xǐhuān) means 'like' or 'love' in a general sense. For a stronger, more passionate 'love for learning', you can use 热爱 (rè'ài). While 我爱学习 (wǒ ài xuéxí) is also used, 喜欢 is generally more common for 'liking to learn'.
How to pronounce it
Sounds roughly like “WOH shee-HWAN shweh-SHEE.” The first 我 (wǒ) is a third tone, 喜欢 (xǐhuān) starts with a third tone, and 学习 (xuéxí) has two second tones.
Other ways to say it
- 我热爱学习wǒ rè'ài xuéxiI passionately love learning
- 我爱学习wǒ ài xuéxiI love learning (slightly stronger/more casual)
- 我喜欢读书wǒ xǐhuan dúshuI like reading (often implies learning)
Examples
我喜欢学习新的语言。
wǒ xǐhuan xuéxi xīn de yǔyán.
I love learning new languages.
他从小就喜欢学习。
tā cóngxiǎo jiù xǐhuan xuéxi.
He has loved learning since childhood.
我热爱学习，每天都学一点。
wǒ rè'ài xuéxi, měitiān dōu xué yīdiǎn.
I passionately love learning, I learn a little every day.
Pro tip: Tone change: when 我 (wǒ, a third tone) is followed by another third tone (like 喜 in 喜欢), 我 changes to a rising tone. So, say “wó xǐhuān,” not a flat “wǒ xǐhuān.”
