Yeah, this was a great lesson. I love the concept behind this one....exploring an English word that is expressed in many different ways in Chinese depending on context.

...did I? Jeepers, early dementia but still with it enough to recognise it. Fingers in so many pies I forgot which pies they were, hehe.

Have you listened to the Detective Li series? It is so well done, so it makes it more interesting. The bonus is that because it's a series, you may well find that some vocab repeats itself and of course you'll have more context. No matter what you end up choosing to do, I'll keep a lookout and try and help where I can, but I'll be more motivated to go over the whole transcription in that series rather than focus on the bits in brackets. Just a thought mate. Of course choose whatever piques your interest most though. :)

I think of 回来 as 1 word and 会来 as two separate words, so it should be said slightly differently [not to mention the tone difference], with a slightly perceptible gap in the second instance.
