In the expansion, 不是。。。。吗？

there is a sentence,

他不是去美国了吗？
Didn't he go to America?

can I say "他没去美国吗？" instead?

If it is Ok to say, then what is the diffrence

Another question is

In the previous comment,

if I wanna make a reservation call, one can say

我要预定位子, 四个人的 (Wǒ yào yùdìng wèizi, sì gè rén de.)

Instead of yùdìng, can I swich the verb with 订？

Hi

In the expansion sentences,

1. they are not coming with me : 他们不跟我来

I thought 不 should be in just front of the verb

like this, 他们跟我不来. Both 可以吗？

2. How many friends will come?

I thought the word order would be 几位朋友来？

but it is opposite 来几位朋友？ Both are OK?

3. How many people are there?

几个人在那里？can I say like this, too?

Thesedays I am really into learning chinese and I feel fun and happy when I am listening to the energetic lessons of chinesepod. thank you~

before I learned that what's your last name is 您贵姓？

I found the expansion tap, and there is 你姓什么？

您贵姓？is a more polite way of asking  你姓什么？

both are used a lot in spoken language?

谢谢 Jenny :)

Posted on: Sending Emails

sorry, I mistyped "the ba"

I meant 发邮件吧 without 给我

then you mean "email 我" = “邮件我”？

so I can say "发邮件给我" or "邮件我" ?

thank you :)

Hi~ I'm always enjoying this pod, thanks

can I just say, "send me an email"

”发邮件把“ (without “给我”)

or do I always have to say with "给我" ?
