他的知识来自道听途说。他没有提到有界英尺，也没有
长城。奇怪的是不是？ (about the same message, I hope !!)

January 27, 2009 at 10:29 AMIs there any evidence that Marco Polo was in zhongguo? I read somewhere that he had his knowledge from hearsay. He did not mention the bounded feet nor the changcheng. Strange is not it ?

June 16, 2008 at 9:04 PMNow some "logistic" problem. CP tells me that I am currently studying 81 lessons among which there are
a few advanced ones and some media - which I always skip. I never go further than intermediate level lessons (with great pleasure !)
If I look at them and I press "remove" at all the ones I never studied. But CP know better obviously and I cannot get them from my personal record....strrrange !

I changed to Firefox for CP.
The comical i sound in shi is in the first and fourth
sentence of the dialogue. Normally i hear it pronounced shuh4, but here it is the i of 7 (qi)
How come ?

June 15, 2008 at 2:57 PMIn the expansion lessons there is the girl saying 是
in a strange way with the i of 七 (qi).
Up to now it was pronounced "uh", so: "shuh".
how come ? Shanghai dialect ?

October 8, 2009 at 9:41 AMI had a no good experience in Restaurants all over China. If you order more than one dish - and most of the time we took 4 of 5 - you get an unreadable thin coloured sheet of paper. When the bill comes this is also unreadable except the amount to pay. Now, if I have chinese students with me who controle this bill it is ALWAYS wrong. Never too little, but ALWAYS too much. I do not like that. Of course waiguoren who had a good meal donot care to pay 18 euro for 4 persons instead of 15. But I hate to be cheated all the time.
This also happens in "expensive" restaurants.
Does anyone has the same experience , and how do you handle it ?
