As an undergraduate a while ago, a friend invited me to a new student club--The Hong Kong Club. At their first meeting, although we spoke English, there were about 50 Canonese speakers and myself. (Perhaps I was just there for the diversity.) I met one guy from HK who said he could tell by anyone's accent where they were from, but my accent confused him. He refused to believe me that I was born and raised in California and couldn't understand why I wouldn't admit to being raised overseas. It became very ackward.

"stick-to-it" is the word. So "stick-to-itiveness" would be something like the characteristic of not giving up.

OK, I did manage to find this thread. 找到得最难!I also noticed this appeared in my personal thread. Since V3, I never know where something new might appear. I almost expected "请问" to show up on the extra page.

Just an FYI, the first two expansion sentences have the wrong subject in the English translation.
