💡 Cultural Insight: Verb Reduplication in Chinese Hospitality

In Chinese culture, repeating action verbs like 'come' or 'sit' multiple times in rapid succession is a hallmark of warm hospitality. Saying 'sit' just once can sound abrupt or cold, whereas tripling it makes guests feel eagerly welcomed.
