SOME VOCABULARY PRACTICE 
To understand this you need to understand my fianc¨¦e—a sweet Chinese girl with an innocent demeanor and a clean mouth. While talking on the phone this morning, we shared some new words we've learned in the other person's language. Me, in Chinese. Her, in English. I went first: "ÌÇ´×Óã [fish in sweet and sour sauce]... ¹Ú¾ü [champion]... ë¿ [donkey]... ºìÂÌµÆ [traffic light]..." Then she reviewed her new words: "Misogyny... masochist... cuckold... douche..." "Sweetheart!! Just what kind of textbook are you reading!?!" -murrayjames 03/14/10 |
