Posted on: Let's Just Be Friends
March 6, 2010 at 3:22 AM按照我的想法与经验大多数男人们年轻时候看男女关系太简单了，太不耐烦了。过几年可能发现为了了解与欣赏男女关系不简单。反正我这个浪漫家伙觉得在这个对话里面那些人已经有亲的关系，所以如果一个人有特殊的感觉，不表达就不老实！当然明智的人能一边接受拒绝，一边继续友情，也许同时希望与追求！

March 5, 2010 at 5:18 AMHa ha, don't hold your breath! Chinese people never indulge in such lewd talk. Really! ;)
Certainly CPod won't be featuring it, they've been on the squeamish side recently, notice how the Love Tangle series has been left hanging in the air? Doesn't look good for a language site to be giving such impressions of Chinese life, dontcha know?!

March 5, 2010 at 3:53 AMSex meaning lovemaking is 性交, sex meaning gender is 性别.
Hmm... I guess the 大哥 Lothario here gives pretty good advice, but after going through it all I really just want to reprise your recent comment pretzel, I mean the one about being glad you weren't single, dating and chasing being just too complicated.
I guess if every amorous pursuit should be planned like a military campaign this guy really knows his stuff.

March 4, 2010 at 4:46 AM呵呵，changye，我基本上跟你的想法一致，但是我也觉得在这个对话里面，最重要的是男人说《我不会放弃你的》！好像女人听说这个意思就感觉满意！这可能是重要的事男人该学。反正我觉得对女孩说《做我的女朋友吧》不是很好的方法，太直接，太胸無城府！

February 26, 2010 at 8:06 AMHere's an interesting expansion sentence:
这位是我的老师。
(This lady is my teacher.)
But how do we know the teacher is a lady?

February 24, 2010 at 1:53 AMYou can just say: 你听说了吗？Nǐ tīng shuōle ma?
It's just like saying: Have you heard the latest?

February 19, 2010 at 11:03 AM呵呵，one thing about living in China, the TV programming is so poor it's not worth watching, so one ends up doing more reading and stuff.

February 19, 2010 at 7:25 AMI'd call Seinfeld a sit-com, (i.e. a situation-comedy.) I guess we just have more terms for these things in English, (which perhaps doesn't say much for our TV obsessed culture!)
