今天是我第一次听到 “我有位。。。“ 为什么不用 “我有一位。。。“？ 潘吉，哈哈， 捕杀一个好的男人，很好笑。可是我想中国女孩应该收藏这些很少的好男人。:) 光听这个词是什么意思？ Connie 说仙子是美丽的女仙。 好！我有一个问题，如果世界上有稀奇的仙子，有男人会说"只羡鸳鸯不羡仙"吗？]]> art Kho 许冠俊

Connie and Bei Ren Bo Speaking about "dan's" are 复旦大学学生 ever "punned" about their brains ? I guess in China someone may have 豆腐 是 头脑 but in America we ask if someone has scrambled eggs for brains. I can make a horrible mixed metaphor if I use 混蛋 for scrambled eggs. Perhaps a strong word for Jenny and Airc's show. Mike in Jubei]]> Mike in Jubei

许冠俊， Sometimes in a sentence ,"一" with measure word in Cinese we can omit '一". As: 有一个～(Yǒu yī gè） 有个（ yǒu gè） 有一点（yǒu yīdiǎn ） 有点（yǒudiǎn） 这一天（zhè yī tiān） 这天（zhètiān） 光 means only. This meaning is usually used in spoken Chinese. So 光听 means only by listening. I am not sure Itranslate correctly.]]> Olivia

许冠俊， 仙子，仙女，这些都是说天上的女神仙（shénxiān）immortal。 人们都认为，仙子都是永远年轻、漂亮的。所以你夸一个女子长得漂亮，也可以说“你长得真像仙子”。 “只羡鸳鸯不羡仙”的意思是：只羡慕(xiànmù)envy成双成对的幸福人,不羡慕神仙（因为神仙不能结婚）。 男人应该爱情和仙子都想要吧。^_^]]> Connie

Mike in Jubei ， Great work! Your Lxical bits! 加油！ “豆腐脑子”means the people is stupid, so this saying may make people angry. But in China there is a kind of food called"豆腐脑", many people like it. 复旦大学，this is a very famous university, of course there isn't any relation with复旦and孵蛋except similar in pinyin.]]> Connie

I have a fly on my monitor screen at the moment and it just wonders back and forth along the blue bar at the top of the screen. I think it likes the colour blue, if I point my mouse at it, it gets confused and dances around. It's quite fascinating hehe.]]> Bazza
