That’s a very good idea. Thank you for your suggestion. Regarding your question about using the idiom to describe yourself when you’re in the dumps, after I did some research, I believe that this idiom should be reserved for use only for truly wicked people. It’s probably not a good idea to refer to yourself, even if teasing. We plan to go back and tweak this lesson to make it a little clearer. Thank you, again.

Yes both uses are correct. You are right, the idiom was originally meant to describe very wicked people. Thank you for pointing this out!

Hey Simon, click the little arrow pointing down next to your name and underneath your picture on the home screen. Then click My Settings. Then there is username, then below that it says name (how do you want to be called) I have both mine set to say Grace Wong. Let me know if that helps.

Yes you can. They are all great options. I think they will be impressed with you saying 我姓 Richards, but 我的名字叫...or 我叫... is fail safe and great way to introduce your name.

Hello! Your Chinese is good, you are correct! I love Beijing, it is a fun city. Tell about how your trip goes when you return!

Depending on the tone, it can come across mean or just a tease.
