IN THIS LESSON
ID: QW0061 Elementary
We all know that when speaking in Chinese, some English expressions cannot be translated literally. But every now and then, what you thought was just basic grammar results in a communication breakdown. Even something as simple as the word "my" can betray you! Take a walk with us today in the minefield of "my." (This week's topic was inspired by a blog entry on Sinosplice.)
