guardian_learning第七天 day! You know the rules. Post something you like, and/or something that was helpful for study, basically anything interesting to you and Chinese-language-related ;)
(Silly request: you know those grid logic puzzles, where you have five people, five pets, five houses etc. and you figure out which belongs to which? Do those exist in Chinese? I have a bad habit of wasting time on them when I'm stressed, and Chinese ones would at least be good reading practice...)
Mine: 吃一堑长一智, a useful (and comforting) phrase Yu-jie taught me last week, roughly "you learn something from every stumble" (?).
Also another favorite Liu Chang song (I think I've posted it before, but not here), since around this time of year, at least in the northern hemisphere, it's what we would all like to do: 再睡五分钟. 我虽然爱睡懒觉，但是绝不迟到，早上好。 remind me to come back to this when the 虽然...但是 grammar point comes up...

Date: 2022-02-21 08:24 am (UTC)At some point I need to dig out my Andy Lau CDs
which may or may not be bootlegs from SF Chinatown shhhh, but I still had 冰雨 on my hard drive, and was again surprised to realize I was recognizing phrases! Not entire sentences yet, but definitely catching some of the meaning without looking everything up. Please enjoy a live performance involving a soggy Andy!no subject

a live performance involving a soggy Andy
Hah, I knew which performance you were talking about before I clicked on it. :DDD In fact I think the whole concert recording this video comes from is probably my favorite of his live shows that I've seen, and the rain is definitely a highlight! There's a copy with clearer video here, if you want a slightly more HD view of his sogginess. XD
