Good News Br. Pīnyīn Plus Material Matching the 2019-08 Printing Added Covering Up to the End of Lesson 2, Question 4
The official Mandarin Good News brochure was recently revised. The latest official version is now dated 2019-08 (2019 Nián 8 Yuè), and it uses significantly revised wording compared to the previous 2018-03 version, similarly to how the latest 2019 (nwt) version of the Mandarin NWT Bible uses significantly revised wording compared to the previous version of that publication.
The Pīnyīn Plus resources based on the Mandarin Good News brochure are in the process of being revised to match the latest 2019-08 version, with notes indicating where any material still based on the older 2018-03 version remains:
