Lovely Becca Chu worked here as recently as 2022. I guess she is gone? Where did Becca go? I hope she is happy there. Will there ever be another lovely comment reader and answerer here?

In the expansion, should this sentence 你们饭店晚上几点关门? not have a 的 to indicate possession of the 饭店 by 你们?

Is this considered too close a relation to warrant using 的, like 我爸爸?

LOL, chatgpt says I would be more correct to write 我用 ChatGPT 找到了‘只有’这个词。

找到了 shows successfully found, 找了only looked for。 这个 because it was this specific word. And 词 instead of 字 to mean it was the word '只有' I was looking for, not really the characters.

chatgpt cannot help with pronunciation. But it is absolute genius at everything else.

I got that mistake once in a Newbie exercise. Maybe it wants you to match the gender to the dialog?

LOL, yes, I joined last month too. We are a decade or so late, it seems.

In the expansion 你怎么去学校?is translated as "How did you get to school?" Why is this past tense or completed action without a 了 after 去?

Doesn't the sentence mean 'How do you go to school?'

In the grammar for 谁 it says 谁是你们老板? This is the same as English construction. Many lessons note that question words are generally at the end of Chinese sentences. I would expect to read 你们老板是谁?

Why is it correct to start this sentence with Who is...?
