December 25, 2013, 02:57 AMSeems like it should be 要给红包啊, since they don't get the idea to 凑份子 until later on in the dialogue?

September 13, 2011, 04:57 AMIn case anyone is looking for common cold medicine from the West （西药）, the Chinese names for Panadol and Tylenol (both are paracetamol) are:
Panadol = 必理痛 bì lǐ tòng
Tylenol = 泰诺 tài nuò

May 16, 2011, 10:24 AMOne of the expansion sentences:
他的工资一般般，只够自己生活。
Listening to the example pronunciation, the way that 只够 is pronounced, it sort of sounds like 足够? I guess they both make sense. And as a bonus I learnt a new word :)

March 04, 2011, 11:07 AM"越"和"粵"有没有关系？
越南 - Vietnam
粵 - Guangdong
Until now, in my head, I actually thought they were the same character because they were pronounced the same.
对了，以前听说中文播客要开始粤语的课文，还没有新信息吗？我对粤语的课很有兴趣。

February 18, 2011, 04:08 PM对话在7:16左右:
John: 四五万?!
David: 对，就是那块 ... 。
David说了什么？听起来我不太清楚，我只是听得 “xiao tie pi” 或者 "xiao qie pi"。
谢谢！
Posted on: Calling an Ambulance - Part 2
March 06, 2014, 02:17 PMThe Chinese dialogue text seems to be a little wrong.
出车一次是30元,以后每公里是30元。
Using the car one time is 30 yuan. After 3 kilometers, each additional kilometer is 7 yuan.
In the audio dialogue, the ambulance driver is saying:
出车一次是30元，3公里以后每公里是7元。
Which reflects what the English translation is saying.
Also, there seems to be some Chinese dialogue text missing a little earlier when the ambulance driver is saying that it cannot be deducted from medical insurance:
不行。我们是实时结账的。
I'm not 100% sure that's what it is, could someone listen through and check it?
