Posted on: Scheduling a Time

thanks Jenny. I was wondering if "nin"ing it would be enough to get you out of trouble. Would using "shiqing" instead of just plain "shi" sound more formal/polite too?

so if shenme shi is too informal/impolite to use with a boss, what would be the polite equivalent?

haojiubujian ah! I was thinking of you mate when this lesson came out and nearly made a comment, but wasn't sure you're still around. I presume you've had a nice close shave....

karlovac,

just had a listen to the expansion for you. It's definitely and quite clearly there. Don't forget that yě is third tone so be on the "lookout" for a much lower sound after tianqi. Keep listening, this happens to all of us but eventually you hear all the sounds.

I think it sounds like 对应的 but I've only listened to that bit so not sure if it fits the context

hang on, decided to have a little listen around that bit...yeah, I'm pretty sure its 对应的...so I think Jenny is saying that this word送 has this counterpart word 接...the first one meaning to see someone off and it's counterpart meaning to go and meet someone
