July 1, 2010 at 2:05 PMNo problem. Here's the new protocol:
1) Credit should be given at the beginning of every lesson
2) To me.
3) They should also mention that I am awesome, and filled with mysterious chutzpah.
Tada!

June 30, 2010 at 12:05 PMWell, speaking as someone progressing from elementary to intermediate, I know that because I sucked it and saw. I like series, so I tried the first one in this series, I even tried to start a transcription. But it's really super-hard. So I gave up, and someone recommended I try a more recent one, so I did, and found it a bit less impossible.
I think it was the alphabetical list I saw? Aha, I found it, using the new profile page! How useful :)

June 30, 2010 at 10:32 AMThat's really interesting, thanks for doing this gomanly. Am I right in thinking you're the one who produced the big list of Elementary vocabulary from the lessons? Any chance you could post that link again?
While I'm not disagreeing with your conclusion here, isn't this series considered one of the more "advanced" intermediates? If you compare this series to recent intermediates (where John generally gives an explanation after each Chinese sentence, if not a direct translation), the levels are completely different. The time when the Intermediate lessons were nearly all in Chinese are well past, and they're a lot more balanced.
Would it be possible to do what you've done here with a more recent lesson?

June 30, 2010 at 9:41 AMWhatever happened to Rebecca. She's in so many of these older podcasts, she's practically Amber's co-host!
Did she stay in China, go back to Australia?

June 30, 2010 at 9:22 AMNo, but you would say "where did you get so burned?" or "burnt"... right?
