I think QingWen has been quite basic of late (though I understand the need to run through basic patters)

any chance of throwing us higher-level users an episode? I like the ones where you differentiate between some near-synonyms.

Cheers!

於是，於 as a marker of place/the comparative, etc. Not a personal need or priority for me, but those kind of things are often overlooked but really much more necessary to even a modest understanding of the language than most people tend to realize.

There are a lot of examples on www.nciku.com too.

在这个句子里可不可以省略第二个。例如 ”你什么时候走，我就走” 因为我很少听到中国人那样说。另外个例子 -”你喜欢什么，就买吧” 还是不行？

"你喜欢什么，就买吧。"这个句子经常说。

]]> <![CDATA[By: mudphud]]> I view the lesson mathematically:

The question words, 哪儿 (nǎ'r)，什么 (shén me),..., are like the variable X, the unknown. In the first part of the sentence, one assigns the variable, and in the second part, one uses that assignment, e.g.:

Let X = 5, so 2*X - 3 = 7.

Thus,

你去哪儿 (nǐ qù nǎ'r)，Assigns X (哪) to be "the place that you go"

我就去哪儿 (wǒ jiù qù nǎ'r)。I will go to X.

Yes, I am a nerd. (BTW, I think there are a lot of beginners like myself, that are somewhat intimidated by the level of the comments and so don't post but very much like the level of Qing Wen.)

It was once suggested that pinyin would be used to supplement these sentences and even management agreed and staff started to type in pinyin and in characters for elementary and intermdiate clients who aren't s cool as Xiao Phil. Trust me, there are many nerds among us.

]]> <![CDATA[By: zhenlijiang]]> Hi mudphud and quasifrog, there's no need to be intimidated; we all come here as learners, even those of us who come across like wanna-be teachers (* edit--agh! just realized that might sound like I mean Xiaophil, which I positively do not. I meant like myself. *) at times. We aren't banging out sentences in Chinese, we want to practice using what we've learned and are trying our best to communicate within our limited abilities. I think the people who wrote pinyin- and translation-less comments here did so because this QW is labeled Intermediate in difficulty, and therefore they assumed the same rules apply, as if this were an Intermediate or above level lesson. Perhaps the expectations need to be clarified again, regarding the Qing Wens. I'm never quite sure myself.
