April 25, 2008 at 3:54 PMI over analyze too. Thats what engineers do. I love it when it all makes sense and the parts add up to the whole but sometimes there is beauty in the round about way they get to it, and then there are times when it just drives you crazy.

April 25, 2008 at 3:17 PMgesang, 什么时候 is a lexical chunk that means "when". Dont over analyze it. It can be thought of as what time period or during what time period. (when). Wei shen me 为什么 is why (for what). Another one that shoud be thought of as the whole chunk.

April 25, 2008 at 9:20 AMWell if this guy would have followed the Chinese rules of emotional investment that we studied not long ago, he could have moved on already. You cant have love without risk. You got to take the chance. Sure it hurts, but its worth it. Clay, I believe Mr. Light just handed you what we used to call a "wolf ticket". How appropriate since with his new haircut, he looks a little bit like a wolf. Game on. :-)

April 27, 2008 at 9:53 AMCassie, "on purpose" is used usually refering to something that has happened in the past. "I didnt do it on purpose". Meaning it was an accident or at least unplanned. You can not describe something you are doing now as not on purpose because if it is happening now, you could change it, and therefore it is on purpose if you decdide not to change it. I hope that was clear :-). The better way to say what you said above would be - "I would never purposely give you a new Chinese sentence without explanation, but the explanation will have to wait until tomorrow since I am very tired." Anyway I would like to hear more about this saying you posted and promised to explain.
