Language hacking?
Do you know of Benny Lewis, an Irish polyglot?
He recently published a language course called Language Hacking.
What does this word mean, language hacking? Also, what is a language hacker? Are these new words he made up himself? Do they have something to do with 'hacking a computer'?

What fruit do you like? —It's apple.
Is the conversation above natural?
Is it more cnatural to answer 'I like apple.'?
Or, maybe 'I like apples.'? Or just 'Apple(s)'?

In Chinese, this symbol 。is put in the middle? Or at the bottom?
When I insert a 。with my tablet, this symbol appears at the bottom. You can see this symbol at the bottom, right?
But, I saw some sentences where this symbol was put in the middle.
If you don't understand what I mean by 'bottom' and 'middle', the bar A is put at the bottom and the bar B is put in the middle.
Bar A ___
Bar B ----
If this is a regional difference, can you tell me where do they put this symbol in the middle?

Chinese Punctuation
I'd like to know where you put a comma and a period in each variety of Chinese used in Mainland, Taiwan and Singapore.
When I see my Chinese textbooks, they are put at the bottom like English commas and periods. But I think I saw a sentence somewhere where commas and periods are written in the middle.
It looked like this. (你好・) The period was like a donut not a dot (I just couldn't type it but a donut period like this; 。) but it was placed in the middle.
Are they put in the middle when you write with traditional Hanzi? Or it depends on region?
What about in the places written above?It seems my English is not good enough to explain my question. Let me try explaning again.
When I insert a 。with my tablet, this symbol appear at the bottom. You can see this symbol at the bottom, right?
But, I saw some sentences where this symbol was put in the middle.
If you don't understand what it means by 'bottom' and the 'middle', the bar A is put at the bottom and the bar B is put in the middle.
Bar A ___
Bar B ----
The problem is the position of the symbol, not the distinction between each punctuation mark.
