Posted on: More or less? 多 (duō) and 少 (shǎo)
September 12, 2007 at 8:21 AMAmber and Connie, 多用中文来做梦。Is this right way of saying dream more in Chinese? I never knew that 花 is also a verb until I listened to this lesson. I learn something new every time I listen to Cpod! Art

September 12, 2007 at 3:43 AMI haven't really followed this Canada-China saga. This lesson is sinister! Hmmmm, who wrote this piece? John, did you? Is there someone on the Cpod writing team who has something against the Canadians? ;-) And were Peter's last words "忍者, eh?" Amber's gonna kill me for this. :-) Art

September 5, 2007 at 7:53 AMFrom what I've heard, the baijiu on Amber's desk tasted horrible and Amber isn't the owner of the baijiu. :)

September 3, 2007 at 7:47 AMPat is so 90s, unless SNL is still doing Pat skits. What is androgynous in Chinese?

August 31, 2007 at 8:32 AM虽然所有的加拿大的人有很多漂亮的女孩，我觉得中文博客的听众都认为加拿大没有女孩像Amber那么漂亮。 Terrific lesson! Jenny, thanks for the Amber example. My vocabulary and grammar skills just expanded again. Connie, thank you for the explaining simply in Mandarin the differences between 都 and 所有. I was able to write down most of what you said. 周末好！下星期五见。 Art

August 30, 2007 at 8:19 AMExcellent lesson. I applied it and got a chuckle from my colleague in China when I sent him this message: " 我永远不会夸老板!" I also found it useful to learn how to say 老板都把工作推给员工. I got laughs for telling that to two China colleagues. Keep up the terrific work!
