    最近怎么样? that literally means "how are you lately?", but I think it's the one closest to "what's up" in chinese.

    It came to me immediately that the line from "500 days with Summer": Color my life with troubles of chaos.(Actually it is the name of a song.) So I guess, the translation could be: Colored life with troubles of chaos. What do you think? :)

    Yes, they do. The idea of teahouse is very similar to "cafe", as tea is always traditional bevarage in China. People spend time in teahouse talking to their friends, drinking tea or simply just want to spend some time there. For amusement,some of the fancy teahouse do have opera in house.(Just like rock bands play in the bars!) But I think teahouse is no longer that popular after 2000s. I've never been to a teahouse, so I don't know how do they move the stage..But I've been to a very traditional Beijing restaurant. And during the meal, there were performers playing on a stage which was in the middle of all the tables in the restaurant. It is said that the performers are only performing on Wednesdays and weekends. When there's no performance on a day, the stage is just closed, but they don't move it.. Hope you find this helpful!

    The best way to forget someone is to find a new hobby that you are interested in so much, or a new thing about that person that you really hate! :-P

    What's the difference between "I was moved (to tears)" and "I was deeply touched"? I can not understand the difference between "move" and "touch", could you please help me? Few illustrations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    And the difference between: 要下雨了 会下雨了 What is right?? ------------------------------- "要下雨了" means "It is going to rain (soon)." I don't think Chinese use "会下雨了", but "会下雨" means "It is going to rain (but I'm not sure when the rain will come)". "了" usually stands for something already done, or something is coming near. In the first sentence, it gives out the hint of "soon".

    I don't hate my country, but honestly let's face it, China has a lot of problems, especially the ones related to its people. Anyway, I want to move to somewhere I can have a "life" in.

    Chinese also has the most complicated characters in the world, so it definitely needs more patience to cover up all the basic knowledge of Chinsese before entering into the "ancient" level. My way of teaching Chinese is to help my students have fun with it. In this way, they will be much more eager to live with it.

    Pronounciation Sorry about writing this one in english, but I am still practising my pronounciation. I've been learning French for one or two years, but it was a on-and-off status. I really want to put myself in it this time and make some progress! Pronounciation is important in every language, I've seen people who rushes to the grammar or vocabulary without they can even pronoucing the right tone. What do you think?
