Questions are a little short on the ground today as 圣诞节 is begining to intrude on my study time.  I have some though and think that they may take a while to talk through.

1) What is a Dishwashing machine called in china.  I have two guesses 洗碗机 and 电洗碗.

2) I just encountered the character 被 I read about it in a grammar book but am not convinced I understand it.  Can you help me with some examples..?

3) 气温 is air temprature.  Should I say 今天气温是零下六度 or is 今天是零下六度 enough...

 1) My first guess was correct 洗碗机 is the correct name for a dishwasher.

2) 被 is used to change around a sentence 

for example

我把苹果吃了  uses 把 for preposition and means

I ate the apple.

whereas if you use 被 

苹果被我吃了 this actually means 

the apple was eaten by me

A further example

我的手机被小偷偷了    (一个小偷把我的手机偷了)

(复杂 means complicated.  这个问题有一点儿复杂 = this question is a little bit complicated)

3) Either of these is correct but the first is a little long.  Can also use 温度 which means temperature rather than air temperature.

不用谢, 我很享受我们的课。很高兴礼物收到了

礼物从英国到中国是两个星期以下,这么厉害啊

我有了一点儿担心礼物不收到圣埏节时候以前

祝你圣诞节和亓旦快乐

谢谢!

嗯,是挺快的!

“我有了一点儿担心礼物不收到圣埏节时候以前” , 这句话可以说 “我本来有点儿担心在圣诞节以前收不到礼物”。

谢谢,我觉得了可能哪个句有一点儿错的!

但是我也觉得上个句可能一点儿错了!

Separable verb got me!

请问 “我很高兴礼物收得到了”和 “我很高兴礼物收到了” 都对了吗

我明年需要练习写的汉字很多。我明年每天写的这里一两个句。

星期一见
