Thank you for posting that! I didn't know about it, and having switched it will make my

daily cPod experience so much more user friendly!

Cheers!

Hi JP,

This is a very interesting question. Here is how I see it (and I hope someone can correct me if I'm wrong):

你穿这件衣服很好看。Here there is no 的, and can be translated to something close to "You look good wearing that clothing."

你穿的这件衣服很好看。Here there is a 的, and can be translated to something cloes to "The clothing you're wearing looks good."

Adding the 的 word makes clothing a part of the subject, and changes the meaning of the sentence.

Let me know if this helps, or even if it doesn't! And if I got anything wrong, I'd love if someone more learned than me could chime in!

不不不,当然没有感觉有什么恶意。其实,大概是从她开始叫我猪头的时候,我就知道她是我喜欢的类型 - 跟其她女生很不同。我和她谈了三年的恋爱。虽然很多东西都变了,但是我还是很怀念那三年的时间。

 

没想到吧?:P

那个笑话呢。。。那个人能回到过去确认自己的爸爸没有认识到自己的妈妈那个笑话。。。我有点儿担心作者 - 还能想出这样的一个笑话呀。。。心理有点儿疼那个作者,想抱抱她/他。:(

I read the url as "[List of problems and] animal shave problems, too"

Lots of people aren't 100% tech savvy, so I think larger text is good if you're starting out... but I'm surprised the text is super huge in the advanced lessons. I always zoom out to 50% of the original page size, so I can read a paragraph of 汉字 without scrolling.

That said, I'm generally crazy happy with cPod - past and present!

I wonder if there's a joke in there with 干巴巴...

There seems to be some family honourific titles that begin with 干...
