I think 1744 is 议程 and 1745 is 环节。
可以把“有目共睹”用在贬义的句子里吗？

August 14, 2011 at 11:17 AMNot sure if this will be picked up but I have another suggestion -- 心 + body part words -- 心眼，心血，心声，心目，心胸。

August 13, 2011 at 12:13 PM建设 is an odd one, although it seems to have some concrete (!) construction connotations
建设银行
建设钢厂 (steel factory)
建设道路 (roads/road network)
建设集装箱码头 (container terminal)
it seems to apply only to large and complex projects. I wouldn't say a steel factory is only building work, for example. I don't think we can really say 建设房子?
More often it is used in the more abstract sense of"found" or "establish" as in:
为了建设新中国
领导我们向前进
Finally according to examples in jukuu, 建设性 means "constructive" as in 建设性活动, 建设性意义。 I don't suppose there is anything like 建设性批评 is there :-)

"一个很‘啰嗦’的特征"
如果逐字逐句的翻译成英文的话，这句话会成为：
“a very verbose characteristic of Chinese”
在这里，我觉得“罗嗦”修饰的应该是“中文”，不是”特征“。但是您好像觉得没什么问题。。。

August 10, 2011 at 12:26 AMMissed a couple of words.
Jenny (3:22) 他们现在在。。。兼职的销售代表
Jenny (4:15) 它的业务面很广，这个贸易公司可能又做出口，又做进口，有做。。。什么都做
Jenny (9:00) 中问这个很罗嗦的特征又出来了
Grammatically seems a bit odd, did I get that right?
Thanks!

Jenny 说：“‘豆’ 是一个 ‘bean‘ 吗？“
Posted on: Punctuation Marks
August 6, 2011 at 2:38 PMThanks, Jenny, but I'm not convinced there aren't hidden rules. Let's take a typical jawbreaker sentence:
本书是根据国家对外汉语教学领导小组办公室所颁布的《中国汉语水平考试大纲》（出、中等）（高等）、《汉语水平等级标准与等级大纲》、《汉语水平词汇与汉字等级大纲》以及在总结多年对外汉语实践、辅导HSK过程中外国留学生普遍存在的语法疑难问题之基础上编写而成的，它突出了汉语作为第二语言的特点和学习者学习汉语语法的与难点，并融进了近年来语言研究，尤其是汉语研究的最新成果，因而具有较强的科学性和针对性。
Why are there no commas until nearly 2/3 of the way there? Can we put a comma before, for example, the 以及，or before 编写而成的?
On the other hand, even some short sentences need commas:
他是忘了，还是故意不来？
No?
