1. The character seems to be the same as the yun in yun4dong4. How does movement relate to luck?
2. The pronouciation of yun4 seems to follow part 12 on the pinyin chart, "Nasal U with Easy Consonants". Is that right?

January 2, 2009 at 4:43 AMThe lesson dialogue immediately made sense to me once I realized that the Hungry Traveler had a dinner companion. I thought it was the fuwuyan and him carrying on a conversation initially, and none of it made sense. Maybe I don't distinguish voices well, or maybe telling us at the intro that there are three people speaking would help.

February 15, 2009 at 7:48 PMTupelo is a town named after a type of tree and associated with a type of honey. There is a popular song lyric:
You can take all the tea in china
Put it in a big brown bag for me
Sail right around the seven oceans
Drop it straight into the deep blue sea
She's as sweet as tupelo honey
She's an angel of the first degree
She's as sweet as tupelo honey
Just like honey from the bee
