Hi Fran1942 Its nice to be appreciated! I stopped doing my lists when the new version of the site came out. I don't visit the site so much now, as I used to come regularly to see what people were posting, but you can't see that easily anymore - I haven't got comfortable with the new layout. I have been working with some other material rather than Chinesepod, but I have been also listing a little more to some of the early upper intermediates. Would anyone else like me to pick those lists up again, or does the new site give you all the vocabulary you want? I am after all just an amateur

I think that the texts in iMandarinpod are simpler that the Chinesepod Intermediates, and may help to bridge that gap! http://www.imandarinpod.com/hoola/

Great lesson. Great chemistry now developing between John and Jenny over recent lessons. Brings back the fun element that we also have with Ken and Jenny... I might even come back to the site! Incidentally - yes it is very slow recently for me too.

hankfdh said: Slava, ....The text for the lesson can be found (a) in the PDF download on the left, (b) in the Dialogue tab at the top of the page, (c) in the ID3 tags of the MP3 file itself - the public feed contains only the Chinese script, but the private feed for paid members contains Chinese, pinyin and English. As far as I can see the public feed is now empty and has been soon after V3 launched. So now no way to see any element of the text without subscribing.
