Posted on: Did It Rain Yesterday?
October 23, 2017, 02:30 AMHi, this was another useful and practical lesson. However, I noticed that in the Exam portion, for Question #3 in the Dictation section, if you write:
我快二十岁的时候买了一台车
instead of
我快20岁的时候买了一台车。
The system marks the former answer as “incorrect.” My guess is that other answers where the number is written out in Hanzi instead of in Arabic numbers will also result in the answer being marked incorrect. It would be great if this could be corrected.

July 09, 2017, 12:34 AMHi, I believe there is an error in the Exercises portion of this lesson or at least a discrepency. The first example for the listening exercise apparently refers back to the example in the Expansion section, i.e. 你的网络没问题吗？
However, the Exercise insists the correction answer is 你的网路没问题吗？ I understand that 网路 is the term for Internet used in Taiwan, but given that the Expansion section provides 网络 as the term for Internet, shouldn't this be corrected?

May 28, 2017, 02:44 AMEnjoyed this lesson very much. I knew 如果， but didn't really know about 的话。
One discrepancy I noticed in the Expansion section. One of the examples is:
你如果很有钱的话，想买什么？
However, the audio actually says, "如果你很有钱的话， 想买什么？”
Does 如果 always need to come at the beginning of the sentence, or can it come directly after the subject?

May 15, 2017, 04:13 AMThis was a really useful and excellent lesson. I was always a little confused about how to properly use V + 不起。Thank you!
One question about an example in the Grammer section. There is an example sentence there, 他看起来不太高兴. However, when I listen to the pronunciation, it sounds like the speaker pronouncing 高兴 as "gao xiu" instead of "gao xing." Could you please clarify what the correction pronunciation is?

April 23, 2017, 04:06 AMThanks! I think the examples that I found a bit difficult were the ones in the Grammar section that uses the 才 structure, e.g. 这项工作要大家齐心协力才能完成。Is there a lesson that covers how to use 才 correctly?

April 19, 2017, 06:54 AMGreat lesson！My only comment is that some of the Expansion and Grammar examples are too difficult for an Elementary lesson.
Also, I noticed that in the Grammar section, the audio for the example, "现在是四点半...." is broken.

May 22, 2018, 03:34 AMHi, this lesson turned out to be more useful than I thought. Thank you!
I notified some errors in Expansion section. The pinyin for 便宜 is incorrectly written as “biayi” instead of “pianyi.”
Also, the pinyin for 重 is incorrectly written as “chong” (2nd tone) instead of “zhong” (4th tone). Hope these can be corrected.
