Posted on: Fire in the Hallway!
January 15, 2010 at 11:13 PMHere's how the audio review goes:
烧: 我把衣服都洗了。
烧:糟了，我把钥匙忘在家里了。
烧:你怎么能把香蕉皮扔在地上？
I guess no one cares with the buzzing and hiccups in the audio review file except me.

January 13, 2010 at 11:30 PMVery annoying buzzing sounds in the audio review file. The buzzing is so loud in some parts of the file so much so it makes it difficult to listen to the audio.

Posted on: Rhetorical Question Marker 难道
January 3, 2010 at 5:10 AM是的，我也觉得老外是用"难道"的说话是不好的主意，只会让中国人生气的反应.

January 2, 2010 at 6:04 AM你对我说得中文这么快，难倒你不知道我不是中国人吗？You speak Chinese to me so fast, don't you know I'm not Chinese?

January 2, 2010 at 5:46 AMGates 先生，为什么你经常用反问句？难倒 你觉得人们都是傻瓜吗？Mr. Gates, why do you often ask rhetorical questions? Do you figure that people are stupid?

December 30, 2009 at 9:35 AMI too find it odd that John is suggesting that pinyin/translation be added to Chinese text on Intermediate boards. Looks like another bad start in store for 2010 as is in early 2009 when staff was instructed to pamper the Eles and caused uproars such as the one in the "Taking It Off" Qing Wen lesson. By the way, writing pinyin without the tones is quite useless.

January 23, 2010 at 7:04 PMI've noticed various times Cpod staff would pronounced the consonant "c" as "d".
For example, in the expansion sentence
今天我要修草坪。
cao3 is pronounced as dao3
Why is this so?
