pete,

you're such a nice guy who is always willing to help others, and i admire you've learned a second language so well.

seems like unless you live in the native-speaking environment for years, you won't command the language.To improve your listening and speaking skills,you have to practice again and again.

also the vocabulary is very important, i've known more than ten thousands English words, but everytime  I read something new,there will be words I can't recognise. my speaking and listening skills are much poorer.

I can't even imagine how long it will take to learn a language well enough, while i've learned English for more than ten years.  How pathetic it is.

Still, it's really a good atomsphere here to learn Chinese and English,哈哈,because 90% words here are English.

I think 我吃了鱼 is complete.

when someone ask you what did you eat,you can say我吃了鱼to answer this question or 我吃了一条鱼。

maybe 我吃了鱼is a little bit colloquial

慈悲既包含慈祥的意思也包含怜悯的意思。

形容一个善人的时候通常会说他以慈悲为怀。

同情就是怜悯的意思,而且通常作为动词用。

I think it's ok to borrow/lend some money, because everyone may have some trouble sometimes and they really need help.

of course people should pay back the money duly to build their credibility.

like what a saying said:有借有还,再借不难。

通常 is usually,常常 and 经常 is often.

and the antonym is 通常不,很少。not 不通常,不经常 or 不常常。

hi pete,

maybe it's differences of two culture, but there might've been sometimes that you were short of cash, what would you do ?

i like the taste of coffee, but i don't drink it too much, because i don't know what kind of nutrition it can bring to me, i won't eat anything not nutritious.

再接再厉”作为一个成语,它是约定俗成的,且有一定的出处。据史料记载,唐朝时斗鸡游戏广为流行。“再接再厉”出自韩愈、孟郊的《斗鸡联句》中孟效的诗句。接,作“交战”讲;“厉”通“砺”,名词活用,作“磨快”讲。意思是公鸡相斗,每次交锋之前先磨一下嘴。今天,人们常用“再接再厉”来比喻工作或学习要继续努力,再加一把劲。所以,切莫把“再接再厉”写成“再接再励”或“再接再历”
