everything is great but the explanation of  "缺心眼" is not correct. 

缺心眼:  指一个人缺乏正常的心机,  做事做人迟钝、老实,褒贬不一,带点纯真。近义词有单纯、无心机、没心眼。

“我等到花儿都谢了.."   I thought it comes from a famous song called 《那片海》 

“偏要”  can interchange with "硬要" 

and the audio quality is not good. Anyway, thanks for the efforts that you put into this lesson.

It is a really helpful lesson, guys!  I always pronounce the word "狭隘" as: "xiá yì"  but the right pronunciation should be "xiá ài"

I think there is still one way of use that was not counted:算+ adjective 我的儿子不算倒霉 (my son is not naughty) 这个工作不算难 (this job is not hard)

Thanks for this lesson, there is another word called "类别" (sort, category) 
for example, 植物的类别很多  (there are many types of plants.)

If someone gets promoted then you can say "恭喜高升” (congraduate on your promotion)

when someone moved to a new home then you can say "祝你乔迁大吉"  ( I wish everything goes well on your moving into your new home)

hi, what's the difference between “情势" and ”局势"  they look very similar, are they interchangeable?
