Advanced vocab still missing in the CPod dict...

Today's lesson on tabloids was brimming with (from my perspective) tough expressions and new vocab - most of which I could not find in the CPod dict. And often also not in other online dictionaries.

I think it is really important to feed all Advanced vocab into the dictionary to enhance translatability - especially as there is no translation given.

我完全同意Henning的建议。

我想最好的说法是: "我绝对(jue2dui4)同意." (I absolutely agree) 也可以说 "我绝对不同意." (I completely disagree) "绝对不行!" (Absolutely not) 完全应该是"所有的"或"整个"的意思,是不是? 可能我错了....

The dictionary isn't automatically linked to the lesson preparation system.... yet. The next version of the backend system will take care of this though. When that happens, we'll also be moving the dictionary server to the States for faster access all around.

Just noticed one of the sample sentences has an incorrect translation, it comes up under "online". 你经常和谁上网聊天？ Chatting online is very interesting. Who do you usually chat online with?
