Chinesepod對我的影響很深。沒有Chinesepod的話,我有可能沒有開始學習漢語。

I believe that 漫画 is generally used to refer to the cartoon drawings... specifically Japanese Manga. If you are talking about cartoon films you can say 动画, referring to animated movies or just anime for short or 卡通, a loan word also used to describe cartoons.

I remember being at a wedding that had an entire table reserved for 網友.

From what I have observed in China and Taiwan, when young people are busy working long hours, they (indirectly) spend a lot more time online chatting and making new friends. Eventually some of those people who really "click" online are going to want to meet.

I should note, this would not really help for finding an English translation, but rather understanding the meaning of the slang.

I find that when I come upon some netslang I just put the word in Baidu. More often than not there is a link to a full explanation of the word and its origins. It isn't urbandictionary, but you can find the meaning quick enough. The only downside is that there is little to no english on the sites.

对不起,我在台湾读书。

简体字的句子:

学习汉语的时候,学习者应该把注意力放在汉语的声调上。这样才能减少一些错误。

bert2, that is good stuff. I also think it makes sense that 创造 is more general and abstract, since the same 创 is used in 创意 for v.o. create new meanings and n. creativity.

寫漢字的時候,學生通常創造自己的新的“漢字”,不是缺胳膊就是少腿。
