Posted on: Ordering a Steak
May 8, 2007 at 10:43 PMOh! I got part of my answer from the Sleeping Baby lesson (actually from the discussion). >> 母乳 (mǔrǔ) is the correct term for (human) breast milk. 母奶 (mǔnǎi) is used when referring to animals' milk for their young. However, it is also used at times to speak of (human) breast milk. But 母乳 (mǔrǔ) is more correct. (amber) << But since we're not talking here about nursing, but about 'teething' on a steak, I would guess that I would be ordering a tall glass of milk to go with it. 牛奶（niu2nai3 - cow's milk)

May 4, 2007 at 7:49 PMI found these in the chinese online dictionary... 青(qīng) - green (blue, black) 靑(qīng) - blue CPod, can you shed some more light on this color? User8353, I found 青丝 (qing1 si1) means black hair. Interestingly, 青 (qing1) can mean green, blue or black. Maybe the "black" comes from the almost blue color of truly black hair.

May 4, 2007 at 1:52 PMUser20293, I think chords were basically... C G F G C G F(maj7) C F G Am F G C ...With an Fmaj7 in there and a conspicuously absent bass that brings out the quiet serentity of the poem. 很漂亮。

May 10, 2007 at 1:10 AMDoes this dialog sound as cheezy in Chinese as it sounds in (my admittedly weak) english translation?
