呵呵, I checked nang2 for kicks, found 7 few characters, all with 20+ strokes e.g. 囊 ;-)

having showers in the evening shows more respect for those under your roof, in the morning for colleagues or customers, having both shows you have plenty of time and water :-)

it's actually interesting to compare both BBC stories above, they're really saying different things about the same incident

I was checking Motel (莫泰) 168 prices, they have several brands in the franchise, 168 but also 美林阁大酒店 (Merrylin), 268 and Yotel QQ (cheapest). I'm planning to come to Shanghai in October, there seem to be dozens of options, not exactly sure where would be the best place to stay but rates are in the 168-250 range [RMB]. If they're really motels they should be convenient to reach by car, but I'd really prefer a place I can get to by public transport. Online booking is all in Chinese but is pretty straightforward as far as I can see. Any recommendation for a 上海市 location ?

on the subject of dictionaries, I came across the glossaries by language. I was looking for English-Chinese translation of computer terms, also found the Microsoft Microsoft Terminology Translations in all the languages they support, including Chinese (traditional too).
