太大-Too Big Arian H is my friend who live in Canada. We talk about my city today. He can’t write Chinese letter, so he like to write PINYIN which is Chinese pronunciation. I made a mistake when I write the number of the city people, so he surprised that it would be about one half of China's population! Here is our conversation. Adrian H: Ni hao. Ni zai gongzuo ma? James: 你好，我们现在可以聊一会儿。hi, we can talk about now. Adrian H: Zai Zhongguo, tianqi zenmeyang? James: 今天天气很好。另外， I transfer you a story which has PINYIN. Can you receive it now? Adrian H: I do not like to download files on the internet. Even though the risk is very low, I am very much afraid of viruses. Adrian H: Can we just talk? James: yes. Adrian H: Nide chengshi tai da ma? James: about 700 ,000,000 people in our city. Adrian H: I think 1000 times less... Adrian H: Otherwise it would be about one half of China's population! ^^ James: sorry, about 7 ,000,000 people in our city. Adrian H: Tai da. Adrian H: Nide chengshi de pinyin de mingzi shi shenme?
