July 24, 2008, 10:48 AM posted in General DiscussionI am curious, what will be the most common (chinese) words we will come across during the Beijing Olympics this year?
Will there be a special ChinesePod Olympic edition?

I've started an Olympic group here and I'm hoping we'll have some good vocab. lists, discussions, photos, etc. Please feel free to join the group.
From a previous post, here's some Olympic vocab. taken from a number of CPod lessons:
If you have PlecoDict, click here to download a .txt file to import into your flashcards (choice of traditional or simplified).
If you use ZDT, click here to download a .txt to import into your ZDT flashcards.
The above are from a vocabulary set I created and am sharing. If you'd like to use it, go to my profile here for the link. I couldn't find anywhere on the site where you can access shared vocabulary sets (that'd be a nice page to have though).
One more link! This one to a lesson set with 28 Olympic-related lessons.

Have you seen the ChinesePod Olympics site? It's awesome, just what you're looking for I think!

My compliments for your Olympic site which is fantastic! I have seen pictures of the Olympic stadium called "birds nest". Can you let me know the chinese words for it?
Thank you
