January 03, 2011, 05:36 PM posted in General DiscussionOkay a few questions for the evening....
1) What is the Chinese for sun set?
2) I want to take a shot at saying: "a place is 180 miles from here" I think I know this pattern but it feels like I may have forgotten something
3) In a similar vein I want to say: "driving 180 miles takes 3.5 hours". this one I'm even more sketchy on...
4) Does the 把 measure word also apply to mobile phones?
5）Is there a chinese word for smartphone? my guess 聪明的手机 feels like it may be too literal..

3) when driving the driving needs an amount of time

4）把 is not the measure word for mobile phones.
部 is the measure word for mobile phones or just use 个 。 部 works for electrical appliances....

January 03, 2011, 08:43 PM老师，请问 I have started a group called "Daily learning journal" for doing a daily journal entry shared with the community. I wonder if you might get the chance occasionally to look at my posts there are give me some feedback?
