June 27, 2010 at 8:42 AMAs a male, could I call a close female friend 小李姐？Or is this reserved just for girl-on-girl situations?

June 24, 2010 at 5:43 PM辐射 fùshè (radiation) is another interesting use of 射. Essential vocab if you're interested in pregnancy in China, too! Got to watch out for that fax machine radiation...

我真想中国！

我的学校也叫‘达尔文学校’！
