IN THIS LESSON
ID: QW0173 Intermediate
There's sort of a fuzzy line between "forgetting" something and "losing" it. (We're talking about physical objects here, not insanity.) In this lesson the Qing Wen crew examines that fuzziness in detail, going over different usages of the verbs 忘 (wàng), 丢 (diū), and 落 (là).
