I am experiencing the same problem as brianhz - the volume which is much quieter in the Expansion sections compared to the Dialogues. Can Chinesepod do anything about it? Thanks

Can someone explain the use of gen1 and yi4 qi3 together. In the expansion there are three examples: two with gen1 and yi4 qi3 and one with gen1 on its own. What's the difference?

Just signed up to Chinese Pod and already addicted.

Have a question about this lesson and a general one too.

Where are you from? is哪里

But can you also say:儿 人?
 

Also I've been using InputKing to get Chinese characters but it's not very easy to use. Are there any other translators on the web that people can recommend?

Thanks
