保护环境，人人有责 这一句在荷兰也有，

就叫"Een beter milieu begint bij jezelf".

翻译就是： 更好的环境就要从自己开始

While watching the series 奋斗 （which I've discovered thanks to CP!) I found Beijing girls can also be very

'作‘ or "很难伺候“。

and besides that, they are always 撒娇ing。

Could you tell me if the girls in 奋斗 are representative for real Beijing girls?

Could you make a lesson about Amsterdam sometime? It also has a China Town, albeit a small one compared to the ones in the U.S.

hi guolanusa, i think what Changye wants to say is: if every suyu began with '子曰' (= 'Confucius said' in classical Chinese), his Chinese suyu dictionary would become a modern Analects. in other words, the wisdom of the suyu equals the wisdom of the Analects (Confucius sayings) in this opinion. correct me if i'm wrong

user27892, listen to the dialogue and you'll know! 清华 is not a 'wenke' university

p.s. when i'll go back to China i'll take all my garbage with me to get some '回收‘ from the mobile repairman, a cheap way to earn my ticket back ;-)

Jenny uses “你几岁?" when she asks how old John is. I've always thought you could only use '几岁’ for little children. Is it because Jenny and John are friends that she can use this term instead of '你多大？'?

so according to Changye's story, even Chinese dogs know how to “撒娇”。 How 可爱 ；-） changye叔叔， who needs a 女朋友 if you have a 芭迪?:-)
