Italki, 大家好！ 聽說這個特定的網站，所以我昨天決定參觀它。看起來有意思！ Recently I heard about this particular website, so I decided to check it out. Upon further analysis, it seems quite useful. 有時候一個人獨自學習言語好像只用一條槳把划船划開! 就只能團團轉！ Learning a language alone is like using only one oar in a rowboat, you seem to just move in circles! 祝我們一起可以相互地學習言語，這樣變得流利的人。 It is my sincere hope that we can mutually study our respective languages and become more fluent. 拜託原諒我的中文。它可能滿懷文法的錯誤！ Please excuse my poor written mandarin; it is most likely full of grammar related errors. 但是，老實說，我寧願集中口語。 Although honestly, I would prefer to focus on dialogue rather than writing, at least on Italki! 加油加油！ Good luck everyone!!! 裴尚恩, Shaun Pedicini

    唉，不了解這個句子。。。。 當我玩中文遊戲的時候，遇到這下句子，完全不明白：（關於學校） 他：“以前不都是下午才開班會麼？“ 這是什麼意思？ 我猜。。。他的意思是，以前班只是下午開的。下午以外班都是關的。對不對？ 謝謝， 裴尚恩

    一些句子。（更難） Why does orange juice taste so bad after brushing one's teeth? 為什麼刷牙之後，橙汁會那麼難喝？ What fitness guru who grew up in Louisiana now tells people, "One should eat to live; not live to eat"? 在路易斯安那州長大的健身教練告訴大家，「吃飯是為了活著，而活著並不是為了吃飯」？ 答案：Richard Simmons（西蒙斯） 翻譯翻得很難。累死了。

    "A little rule, a little sway,

    a sunbeam in a winters day,

    is all the proud and mighty have,

    between the cradle and the grave.",

    it's a quote from the poet John Dyer.

    Kind of depressing for blind people, don't you think? :)

    Maybe they have love at first sound and I guess for Helen Kellar it would be love at first... umm... smell. Yeah that's it.

    语言交流的项目 大家好， 我想找一个要和我做个语言交换的人。基本上，我通过电子邮件把文件传给你然后你可以翻译成中文；而作为补偿，替你把你的文件翻译成英文，好吗？ 你的英文阅读能力应该是比较高的，因为大多数的我句子很复杂。虽然这是翻译的语言交换 对彼此有益处。 有兴趣跟我联络！！ （简体字或者繁体字都可以） I'm looking for a native Chinese speaker who wants to do a written language exchange with me. Basically, I will send English articles/documents and my partner will write the translated Chinese equivalent. In exchange, you can send me your Chinese documents (articles, essays, etc) and I will translate them for you into English. I'm looking for someone with a reasonably high degree of English as most of the sentences you'll need to translate will be moderately difficult. Although this is primarily a translation-based language exchange, I feel that it is mutually beneficial. Contact me if you're interested!

    It really depends on the context of the sentence. For example, if you intended on building a house for the cat, you could say: "I'm going to build a house for our cat." NOTE: it would be rare for a person to say "cat house", however, doghouse is an actual term in the dictionary, so in that same sentence it would just be: "I'm going to build a doghouse." Upon finishing the house for the cat, you could say: "That is the cat's house" In real estate, sometimes they use "house ceiling" as a single term, but using an apostrophe would be acceptable as well. I would use "house's ceiling" when referring to a specific house. Hope that helps, Shaun
