Fixed indeed.

Good lesson. It would have been helpful to have the word for "smoke detector" in the pdf as well. And for fun, add "pyromaniac" so we can talk about er bai wu firestarters.

What words does Jenny use for "emphasize" and "end of sentence".  Thank you.

"End of sentence" is 句尾／ ju4 wei3.

但是失恋了烧东西是不对的，应该去喝酒解愁(relieve one's worries)。

我大学的室友也烧过前男友的情书，不过很幸运，没有着火，失恋的女孩子真是太疯狂了！

]]> <![CDATA[By: bababardwan]]> I thought this could have been one of those lessons that ended in a fun game:spot all the 火 characters and radicals in the dialogue to put out the fire [first to come up with the right number declared 首消防员】

This character 灭 is interesting as it obviously has the fire radical down the bottom but up the top it is merely the character 一 。Not sure how that works here meaning wise unless it's a phonetic but it sure looks right otherwise..it reminds me of someone throwing a fireblanket on the fire.I note this character can also mean "overthrowing" a former regime...[makes me thing of putting out their fire...putting a lid on it]

Thanks John for a great "aha" moment:the 先把火灭了 explanation was superb and it now seems like a cool way to put it;a great Chinese grammar structure that makes sense.I like it. :)
