I also wanted to say that I always think of 知足 as "Know your foot" thus contentment.

So that's it. I was still hoping for some useful phrases to say to someone if they just experienced a break-up and you're about the same age and not trying to move in on them. Anyway...... I still want to make ANOTHER request for a feature so that when you log into the website you can see a list of 10 or so of the most recent lessons WHICH YOU FIND RELEVANT. It'd be easy to check a few boxes for which levels you want to watch. This would be really convenient. Also if you could make a way to bypass the first page, that'd be nice too. I still have issues with V3 but it appears no one is really listening..................

Good lesson, but who does Zhang xiang think he is? Doesn't he know about the break-up grace period? Jumping on vulnerable Lili, for shame..... Anyway, Jenny would you mine giving some more phrases that can be used to comfort a friend who just broke up with their boyfriend/girlfriend? Things that people the same age would say (Not like the father zhang liang exchange) and that people would say when they're not trying to take advantage of someone (Like this dialog). I found in the past few months i've had 3-4 female friends break up with their boyfriends and didn't know exactly how to comfort them.

I also enjoyed this lesson. Not only was the language useful but the fighting sounds at the end were hilarious. Living in Guilin, swearing is the first Chinese you learn. I've always loved the "sth + 个屁“ structure. I wanted to add in some areas you can also say "sth + 个毛“.

Amber, How do I go about doing this? I click on Vocabulary and it says I need to upgrade my subscription. I noticed that the pdfs now include supplementary vocabulary (which is nice, thanks), but they aren't mentioned in the podcast.

“Connie's supplementary vocabulary is now under the Vocabulary tab above. This way these words can also be saved to the Vocabulary Lists and then be used in the Flashcards, Concentration Game, etc.” But Basic subscribers can't access this. 这么小气
