John did u really say its tough to make a great sandwich?? Bu hui ba, wo zhen tong yi!

As long as u have mustard and pickles and good bread NOT sweet bread, u can make a great sandwich just add you choice of cheese and meat and veggies!

There are tonnes of us crazy canucks on this site and littered around China. Good luck to all and may the "Niu" Year be filled with sunshine, peace and happiness!!!

Just want to add my personal favority 'Engchese' saying which came from a good friend of mine when he first came to China and could not communicate with the guard at his apartment.

He came to my place and told me that he had just "ting bu donged" the guard!!!!!

hahahahaahahah we still laugh about this 1, 4 years after the fact!

Awesome lesson, almost feel like I'm there in People's Square with you guys!

Wish I could make it to some of the events but wasn't able to get any tickets--and heard some people actually bought tickets from what they thought was a reputable site online, but turned out the tickets were fake and they lost their money. Hope nothing more serious than this happens.

Really like the supplementary vocab for this lesson:

Tong yi yi shi jie, tong yi ge meng xiang!!!

I also like your reasoning against a "100 word newbie podcast". I was thinking the same things but I probably wouldnt have said it as well as you!

I would just like to say there really is no limit to how many times you can to post here--it is a sharing community! "Why can't we all just get along" Those who are not interested in all the "chatter" don't have to read it!! I love reading all the comments and often get new words and gain understanding from everyone's different thoughts.

Hi Changye, above you wrote 1) 这汤(tang1)很烫(tang4)。This soup is very hot. 2) 我的舌头被烫了。I burned my tongue. 3) 我烫小狗的衣服。I iron my dog’s clothes. 4) 我烫头发了。I got a perm. Can I trouble you for the pin yin of these sentences. Sorry am not quite at the intermediate level yet I guess, but I still like to listen as it is more of a challenge than the Elly--I'm stuck between levels I think and having a hard time moving up. But I keep plugging away!! Thanks in advance, P

ratjetoe73 I will take a guess that Ni3 ma1ma you3 ma3 ma means "Does your mother have a horse?" I don't know why this would be called a joke, it is fun to say though:)
