It can also mean "all", or "every", ie "萬物" all living things.

他說「現金」的時候,我聽了「xiànjīng/ㄒㄧㄢˋㄐㄧㄣ」。你們覺得我的耳朵壞不壞?

喔,什麼時候用「它」,什麼時候用「牠」?

The repeats, depend on how polite you or your guest is being. I would suggest that for the most part, this type of repeat is only likely between an older and younger person, or extremely polite people.

Great fast dialogue, i struggle to understand fast speaking. Why was I taught chinese at such a slow speaking pace, so annoying!

Does this mean, 大床 means "King sized bed". Or is it just a general term for room with a big bed?

Its frustrating when you know all the individual words but still struggle to initially understand the sentence. 

Thanks for the new lesson!

Can't believe you could have a lesson on this without addressing if and/or when you need the polite words.

*sigh* elementary is so slow and boring, i tune out during the explanations in english, but intermediate is annoyingly difficult. 怎麼辦.
