December 1, 2011 at 1:22 AMActually to be technically correct the "time word" can go before or after the subject of the sentence, ie
S (TW) V O — 你明天做什麼？
(TW) S V O — 明天你做什麼？

November 30, 2011 at 9:24 AMI am a little confused about how to distinguish between what in english you would call "BBQ" meat vs "Roast" meat. They are two different distinct things, ie over oven vs over flame.
Is 烤肉 actually equivalent to both BBQ and Roast meat? Can you in chinese distinguish between BBQ and Roast meat?

November 30, 2011 at 8:21 AMInteresting? What areas of china use a soup bowl? In Taiwan I have only ever seen it served in a small bottle or sometimes a cup.
在什麼地方用碗？在台灣有的時候用杯子，有的時候用瓶子。

November 30, 2011 at 8:20 AMI recommend including tones when you write, to help you and others practice the correct tones. In this case I believe the correct tones are probably as follows:
我現在覺得餓死了。
wǒ xiàn zài jué de è sǐ le

November 30, 2011 at 8:18 AMI notice in some fonts, the 條 character appears slightly differently. Sometimes it appears as 木 and sometimes it appears as 小. Is there a reason for this? I wonder if anyone knows why?
