smilealot,

Sorry mate;just a lame joke.D in this lesson didn't give the correct breakdown of the character for his surname and so was not let in.

Actually I have occassionally encountered the same problem and I don't know why.I don't know if the site just gets too much traffic at times or there is a drop out in the connection.It won't happen for the majority of posts though.Sorry,I'm not a techy so I can't explain it any better.

Ken seemed to be saying that gan3mao4 is used for both colds and flu's.Doesn't Chinese distinguish between the two? Also,what is the term for bird flu [nervous chook here also in denial ] ?

I love that there are characters representing the sneezing sound. a1ti4  阿嚏 !

Man cold:

Are there gender differences in China in reaction to illness? Is the above universal ?

It has been calculated that if the population of the world was to get in a line ,it would wrap around the earth several times.So as CPod's popularity continues to increase and it's offices become a tourist attraction,I hope you'll have sympathy and take this into consideration Jenny in your role as a pai2dui4 policewoman.
