Here is the answers for some new vocab which you are supposed to translate in Lesson 3. I believe you have found your answers.
1. 头 tóu head / kepala
2. 目 mù eyes / mata (Most characters / phrases that come with this Chinese character has something to do with eyes. See below:
（+）眼睛 yǎn jīng eyes / mata (when we use it in a sentence, this is my eyes)
Look at the left side of each character, it has the character of 目 mù
3. 口 kǒu mouth / mulut (Most characters/phrase that comes with this Chinese character has something to do with mouth)
4. 嘴巴 zuǐ bā mouth / mulut (when we use it in a sentence, e.g. this is my mouth)
5. 耳朵 ěr duo ear / telinga
6. 足 / 脚 zú / jiǎo feet / kaki
7. 大 dà big/ besar
8. 小 xiǎo small / kecil
9. 多 duō many / banyak
10. 少 shǎo little / sedikit
Translating to Mandarin
1. Sun 日 / 太阳 rì / tài yang
2. Moon 月 yuè
3. Mountain 山 shān
4. Field 地 dì
5. Rock 石头 shí tou
6. Water 水 shuǐ
7. Fire 火 huǒ
8. Soil 土 tǔ
9. Wood 木 mù
10. I / Me 我 wǒ
11. You 你 nǐ
12. We /Us 我们 wǒ men
13. He/She/It (same pronunciation different characters) 他 /她 /它 tā
14. They / Them 他们 tā men
The above (except subject pronoun) are the basic words that you might need to know to ease your learning of Chinese characters. As I mentioned before, although Chinese characters might look complicated, most of the time it is a combination of a few characters. By introducing the basic/simple character, I hope will allow you to look at Chinese character from different angle.
Although, it will allow you to "guess" the meaning of the word. For example: 火huǒ means fire. So most of the characters that come with that will have something to do with fire/light/hot temperature. E.g. 烧 (shāo) burn, 灯 (dēng) lamp / light, etc.
As of the introduction to subject pronouns will allow us to create sentence (simple ones) in near future :)
Revisit this over and over again, until you have them all on your finger tips :)
Happy Learning,
Linda Tan

Thanks for sharing this awesome post. The holiday has its roots in ancient Chinese folklore, and there are many Mid Autumn Festival Legends associated with the festival.
