As if anyone would read through this. Here goes-- Hello, I grew up near the boarder of México. Other than English, yo hablo poco Español và luôn cả tiếng Việt! I've been learning Chinese for more than 5 yrs but made no progress. What a shame, huh? The language I'm dying to master is Taiwanese but it is really hard for me to memorize all of the characters. I failed the same Chinese course over and over again just because I don't know how to make use of my time. I'm determined to pass Chinese II next Spring quarter! Please let me know if there's a way to store thousands of Chinese characters in a short period of time. I want to learn Korean or Japanese just for fun because I'm tired of reading English Sub when watching dramas ;)

    In addition to what Robert wrote; Arthur is "at" work right now. He arrived "on" time this morning. I met his secretary "on" Monday. She said the manager is "on" his coffee break and won't be back by 2. We also use on to mark the time of an event. That's why it is correct to use "on" in comparison to "at"-- looking back on/ upon my childhood. side note: If you're traveling to another country, you don't say "I'm at China". It should be "I'm in China". I know many people who are confused when to use at/ in. E.x. I'm currently having lunch with my friends at some restaurant in Beijing.

    It varies. Synonyms for defective: malfunction, broken, flaw e.x. 1) the defective iPad will be sent back to the manufacture. 2) my laptop is malfunctioning after I dropped it. 3) don't date her! She has many flaws.

    Yep. To aggravate is to make worse, to provoke, to cause trouble and stir up problems. "Don't aggravate me, I'm in a bad mood today".

    Hi Everyone, As communication and business moves become more global, it is important to understand the universal language, English. Likewise, Technical English is also just as important. As an IT Computer Networking Specialist, I'm looking forward to getting some help from computer technicians and engineers out there. I'm going to take my CCIE (Cisco Networking Exam), and I'll be moving to the USA. I wish to talk to those who can help me improve my Technical English skills. Thank you! -- I'm not sure what you mean by "Technical English". You mean technical terms (e.x programming, binary language, software, networking, etc) that are related to your career?

    Another meaning for poor is bad. In other words, it was a bad start off. That means it doesn't start off very well to begin with.

    Wo bu dong :< 不懂 or 不了解 Do they carry the same meaning? I'd like to know in details the differences between the two and when to use them correctly. To me they both bring the same msg to the listener-- "I don't understand/ I don't know".

    "Thank you "

    My friends and I had lunch at a resturant a few months ago. The waitress finally brought out my orange juice and accidentally spilled it all over my shirt. The first word came out of my mouth was "thank you". All of my friends but the waitress laughed at my mistake. The poor waitress had a worry look on her face, thinking I was angry at her. I told her not to worry about it. She then apolozied and handed me her handkerchief.
