How to use 国产
国产 describes goods made in China, such as cars, phones, films and medicines. It often comes right before a noun, as in 国产车 (guóchǎn chē) a domestic car. Example: 这部手机是国产的。 (Zhè bù shǒujī shì guóchǎn de.) This phone is made in China.
国产 combines 国 (guó) country with 产 (chǎn) to produce. Something 国产 was produced in your own country.
Common mistake: Learners sometimes say 中国产 when they mean domestic. In everyday speech 国产 already means made in China, so 国产手机 is the natural phrase. Also keep the third tone on 产 (chǎn), not chàn.
