- I was surprised at how similar it was to the west. Even now that I've lived here for two years, I see the differences as only a matter of time or being more extreme. For instance, the "importance" of family, marriage, and "face" in Chinese culture is quite similar to what Western Culture was like a few hundred years ago. Both came from Monarchy systems, except the greater West began moving away from them with Capitalism, the Enlightenment and the rise of Democracy and Socialism. But then, I was expecting it to be different, I found out that what drives everyone is the same as in the west: Money and status. Except in China stumbling on creativity and someone who believe in a limitless world is really lucky. One thing that did surprise me is how superstitious the people are.0 votedMarch 6, 20100
- I agree with "learning". Neither is correct = Neither (one answer nor the other) is correct. Or neither answer is correct. It seems people just don't say the whole thing, but keep the "is" rather than the are. However, if you say "Neither of the answers" then using "are" sounds more correct because you've used the plural.0 votedDecember 23, 20090
- Bread is uncountable, you cannot use it with "a" (you should say" a peice/slice/loaf" of bread). BUT!!! it can be used to talk about "types of bread" "a bread" = "a type of bread." However it's rarely used like this, especially forsomeone just beginning English, so you can ignore it. 面包是不可数的你需要用“一片儿、块儿、等等“ 不过,它的用法也是”一种面包“,你说”bread“但是有这个意思的话能说”a bread“。但是,那个用法有一点儿不常用,所以现在(你刚开始学的时候)不管它,啊:)0 votedDecember 21, 20090
- Alacazam, Open Sesame(Says me). You should definitely read Harry Potter in English if you think magic is interesting, there are probably incantations in there. Actually it's more about how it sounds than that what you say is something people usually say. If you like magic you could read and write on a place like this ( http://www.writingforums.org/forumdisplay.php?s=ddd997b0deed91efafdfcf323f8755af&f=54 ) Fantasy sometimes mixes with fantastical realms outside the traditional Wizardry, but that's present too.0 votedNovember 24, 20090
