This is true in Wuhan and maybe the whole region. Don't say xiǎojiě to women who are alone.

I tried asking a woman for directions and used xiǎojiě. She clutched her purse and started walking faster and ignored me. At first I thought she was just scared of lǎowàis. But when I got back to the States and told my teacher about this, she laughed and told me how inappropriate it was.

oops

That's too bad. Acupuncture works. No more sciatica problem!

Add needles! 加针!

My Chinese teacher would say "wǒ wú suǒ wèi". I don't care.

It's translated in the dialog as, "You'll do whatever feels good."

This sentence alone is weird to me. But taken in the context of the conversation I think it means that A is telling B that B is not very discretionary when it comes to having a good time.

That's my 2 kuai.

Wǒ júde wǒ cóngláiméiyǒu rénshì yīgè rén bùshí yīgě 爱好音乐人.

(I don't think I have ever met a person who is not a music lover)

Can this sentence be improved upon? I think my hànyú yuèlái yuè huài.

Thank you
