Merci Kimiik ! I did not have the good tittle in English, in fact ! Interesting tittle...

Posted on: Measure Words for Animals

I recently studied a text in which there was 一头水牛 and I was wondering, while I was listening to you, if buffalo was a dangerous animal, until I heard you say that 头 was the measure word for big animals as well !!

Could you tell me what is this famous book "Tiger mum" Chinese tittle ? Was it published in China ?

Thank for the PDF, it's really useful !

I think it would be 下了雨 because 下雨 is a verb object.

Very interesting topic, thanks !! You're right when you say that learning language is important but that we've got to learn culture too. That's why I appreciate Chinesepod: I learn both !

Please could you explain me something with 多 ? Sometimes it means that it's from 1 to 2 (1,6 for example) and sometimes it means that it's from 20 to 30. I think that it depends on the context (it's not possible to have 1,6 person somewhere) and it depends on the place of 多 in the sentence. Is it right ? That point has never been clear for me.

Thanks to you and Scotts23 ! I'll try to use the right terms next time I'll go to China !

So it does not sound weird or rude if laowai call Chinese people that way ? I don't dare to call Chinese people Grandpa, or Uncle, I'm afraid that they think I'm rude.

Thanks, Dilu ! That's what I thought but I was not sure. That's great to have the opportunity to study 书面语 as well !

请问, 招聘广告一般是完全口语的, 完全书面语还是一半口语一半书面语 ?
