I notice that this has been fixed, in addition to a couple of other translation issues. 谢谢.

Question about 炸 -- Jenny says zhà, but the Supplemental Vocab shows it as zhá (and Pleco also shows zha2 for "fry").   On a recent Qing Wen, Vera uses zhà talking about frying fish.   What's the situation?

There's a discrepancy at one point between the speakers on the Dialog MP3 and the individual sentences on the Dialog tab.   The speaker (Vera) on the MP3 says 才能结婚 and that's what the transcript has.  However, the other speaker says something else.  I can't quite get it, maybe 才shi4 zhu4 liu3.  Can anyone help?

毕竟我们的传统观念里还是认为异性才能结婚

  In the end, our traditional ideas still only consider heterosexual marriage to be mainstream.

I agree that this lesson is easier than most Upper Intermediates. But that's OK. There's a big gap between Intermediate and Upper Intermediate, and I'm really glad to have some lessons that are in between.
