I like these computer-related lessions.

Could you do one on software bugs, things like "this software is buggy, it works sometimes but not others", "The new version fixes a lot of problems but has some new issues", etc.   Thanks!

Tiny typo in a translation: "your" should be "you're".

或者你做生意的时候也很多。比如说,你要多少重的货物?一吨,两吨。

Or when your doing business it's also used a lot...

I have notice that many, many, many times in CP recordings. Too many to point out individually. I'll just give up on it.

For the record, I was running CP app version 2.1.6 on Android version 2.3.4. The phone could not be upgraded past Android 2.3.4, so I was stuck with the old CP app.

So, I went out last Thursday and dropped a few hundred dollars on a new phone. I runs Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.4), and I now can run the CP Android app version 3.2.3. The new CP app is nice! It fixes the problems I had experienced since December. And I'm discovering that it has many useful functional improvements. Thanks, CP mobile apps team!

Translation typo in this Expansion sentence ("gone" should be "have gone" or "went"):

方向应该对面坐车

(You gone in the wrong direction. You should go across the way to take the bus.) -

It now appears my phone is running an older version of Android, and can't be upgraded to the version needed by the latest fixed version of the CP app. Soooo... guess it's time for me to shop for a new phone.

Question about this expansion sentence:

前男友联系方式删掉

The pinyin for 联系 is given as liánjì, but it sounds like the speaker is saying liánxì.

On the Grammar tab, two of the sentences don't play on the web site (no audio).  I tried in two different browsers.  They are:

 我对你没有感觉我们还是做朋友吧
wǒ duì nǐ méiyǒu gǎnjué, wǒmen háishì zuò péngyou ba。
I don't have any feelings for you. It'd be better if we were just friends.

他笑着对我说我爱你
tā xiào zhe duì wǒ shuō:" wǒ ài nǐ。"
He smiled as he said to me, "I love you."

Tiny typo in the translation:

 

Should be "your", not "you're".

Another home run for BST.   Thanks!
