Just Curious: Subway announcements?

March 16, 2009, 07:53 AM posted in General DiscussionHowdy everyone, I was just curious...
When I was in Shanghai, I was lucky enough to ride the Metro (they don't have public transport where I'm from) and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the automated announcement said. And if other subways in China have similar automated announcements.
Does cPod have a lessons about taking the subway? 谢谢

You can also watch a really fun video 'vocabulary tour' podcast all about the Shanghai metro here.
Similar announcements are found on buses and also the Shanghai maglev train. Did you get a chance to try them out too?
Hi Davidkaneda
Choosing lessons from your current academic level is a good way to work through the lesson archive.
Bear in mind, you can study them in any order you like (each lesson is self-contained) or choose a lesson set to work through.
I hope that helps - but do contact us if you need anything more!

The public transportation in Taipei is so fast, efficient, and clean. And 那么便宜。 I love it.
