wǒmen tán lùyíng jìhuà.

In Mandarin, the verb 谈 can take its topic directly as an object, so 露营计划 follows it without a separate word for about.

• 谈露营计划 = talk about / discuss camping plans
• Literally: we + discuss + camping plan(s)

English often needs about, but Chinese often does not:

• 谈工作 = talk about work
• 谈问题 = discuss a problem / talk about an issue

So the structure here is very normal.

谈 means to talk, to discuss, or to speak about. In this sentence, it most naturally means discuss or talk about.

It is a fairly neutral, standard verb. Depending on context, 我们谈露营计划 could mean:

• We’re discussing camping plans.
• We talk about camping plans.
• Let’s talk about camping plans.
  (less likely without extra context, but possible in conversation)

It is made from two parts:

• 露营 = camping
• 计划 = plan / plans

Together, 露营计划 means camping plan or camping plans.

This is very common in Chinese: one noun modifies another directly.

Examples:

• 旅行计划 = travel plan
• 学习计划 = study plan
• 工作计划 = work plan

So here, 露营 describes what kind of 计划 it is.

Mandarin does not have articles like a or the, and nouns usually do not change form for plural.

So 露营计划 can mean:

• a camping plan
• the camping plan
• camping plans

The exact meaning depends on context.

Likewise, 我们谈露营计划 could be understood as:

• We’re discussing the camping plan
• We’re discussing camping plans

If a speaker wants to be more specific, they can add extra words:

• 那个露营计划 = that camping plan
• 这些露营计划 = these camping plans

It can mean either one, depending on context.

Mandarin verbs do not change form for tense the way English verbs do. So 谈 by itself does not mark present, past, or progressive.

Because of that, this sentence could mean:

• We talk about camping plans
• We’re talking about camping plans

If you want to make the ongoing action clearer, you can say:

• 我们在谈露营计划。
• 我们正在谈露营计划。

Both make are talking / are discussing more explicit.

我们 means we / us.

Standard Mandarin does not normally make a mandatory distinction between:

• we including you
• we excluding you

So 我们 can be either, depending on context.

Sometimes speakers clarify with extra wording if needed, but the basic pronoun 我们 covers both.

Also note:

• 我 = I / me
• 我们 = we / us

The suffix 们 is a plural marker used mainly with pronouns and some nouns referring to people.

Because this sentence is a straightforward subject + verb + object sentence:

• 我们 = subject
• 谈 = verb
• 露营计划 = object

Mandarin often works very simply like this when the verb can directly take an object.

So there is no need for:

• a preposition like about
• a case marker
• an article
• a plural ending

That simplicity can feel unusual to English speakers, but it is completely normal in Chinese.

Both are possible, but 谈 is very natural and common here.

Compare:

• 谈露营计划 = discuss camping plans
• 谈论露营计划 = discuss camping plans

谈论 sounds a little more formal or bookish in some contexts, while 谈 is simpler and more conversational.

In everyday speech, 谈 is often preferred.

Yes, but the tone changes a little.

• 谈 = discuss, talk about; neutral
• 聊 = chat about; more casual

So:

• 我们谈露营计划。 = We’re discussing camping plans.
• 我们聊露营计划。 = We’re chatting about camping plans.

If the conversation is casual and friendly, 聊 works well. If you want a more neutral or slightly more serious tone, 谈 is a good choice.

我们 is pronounced wǒmen.

• 我 = wǒ (3rd tone)
• 们 = men (usually neutral tone)

So 们 is usually light and unstressed.

The full sentence is:

• 我们谈露营计划。
• wǒmen tán lùyíng jìhuà

A few pronunciation notes:

• 谈 = tán (2nd tone)
• 露营 = lùyíng (4th tone + 2nd tone)
• 计划 = jìhuà (4th tone + 4th tone)

Sometimes yes, especially if you want to emphasize that the discussion is happening right now.

Compare:

• 我们谈露营计划。
  = We discuss / We’re discussing camping plans.
• 我们在谈露营计划。
  = We’re talking about camping plans.
• 我们正在谈露营计划。
  = We’re in the middle of discussing camping plans right now.

The version without 在/正在 is still grammatical and natural, especially when context already makes the time clear.

By itself, it usually sounds more like a statement: We’re discussing camping plans or We discuss camping plans.

If you want to clearly make a suggestion, Mandarin usually adds something like:

• 我们谈谈露营计划吧。 = Let’s talk about camping plans.
• 来谈谈露营计划吧。 = Come on, let’s talk about camping plans.

The reduplication 谈谈 often makes the tone lighter and more conversational, especially in suggestions.

Chinese sentences often leave out time expressions when the time is already understood from context.

So 我们谈露营计划。 is complete on its own, even though English often prefers more context.

If needed, you can add time words:

• 今天我们谈露营计划。 = Today we’re discussing camping plans.
• 明天我们谈露营计划。 = Tomorrow we’ll discuss camping plans.
• 刚才我们谈了露营计划。 = We discussed camping plans just now.

Chinese often relies on context more than English does.

A common way is to add 了 after the verb:

• 我们谈了露营计划。

This usually means:

• We discussed the camping plan.
• We talked about camping plans.

If you want to be even clearer, you can also add a time word:

• 昨天我们谈了露营计划。 = Yesterday we discussed camping plans.

So the original sentence is tenseless by itself, and 了 is one common way to show a completed action.
