February 11, 2010 at 9:54 AMI have a question about the character 呆 (dai). I thought the Chinese characterfor "stay" , in this type of context, is 待(same pronunciation). Are these two characters used interchangebly, or is there a difference in their usage?

February 11, 2010 at 2:43 AMHow exactly is the date for Chinese new year determined every year? I don't understand how it works . About how many months before the date can the date be known?
