Date: 2022-05-09 02:18 am (UTC)Because I've got it stuck in my head from talking with
elenothar: 无限 by (of course) Zhou Shen, especially in the live version!
Also, 母亲节快乐~ (albeit belatedly, in this end of Time)
For dictionaries, I actually like the default ones available in the Mac inbuilt dictionary app, both ZH/EN and ZH/ZH! Everything else I just pull off good ol' Google with relevant search terms added.

Date: 2022-05-09 10:42 pm (UTC)Oh, of course! How did I not put together that that was Zhou Shen? Lovely <3
Also, 母亲节快乐~ (albeit belatedly, in this end of Time)
哈哈可爱死了. 我妈她把母亲节嫌弃,所以我总是记不得。。。

Date: 2022-05-09 09:14 pm (UTC)Also, that's not the word I've learned for garlic, interesting!
no subject
Date: 2022-05-09 10:33 pm (UTC)Me neither aagh.
Which is your garlic word? I know that one as part of 大蒜, but I've never seen it without the 大. (I always remember it as 我打算吃大蒜, which is usually true anyway)

Date: 2022-05-11 12:58 am (UTC)Now that actually writing stuff doesn't happen anymore, I'm half convinced the real benefit of familiarity with stroke order is the fact that it does help when trying to decipher handwriting…
no subject
Date: 2022-05-11 10:54 pm (UTC)Yes, I think I was actually told this in some version or other when originally learning Japanese (probably because my Japanese professor was having enough trouble reading my handwriting already...)
no subject
Date: 2022-05-10 04:53 am (UTC)Awwww, I hadn't come across 哈喽 before.
ETA: Yeah, I was *never* going to get 然 from the handwriting. :D Thank you again!
no subject
Date: 2022-05-10 11:44 am (UTC)Haha, yeah, this 然 is definitely a case of "I can read what it says because I guessed what it probably was anyway" XD
no subject
Date: 2022-05-09 10:37 pm (UTC)Absolutely, and same.
(Also, Z1L arguing for the importance of garlic made me feel that I absolutely chose the right person to 追星 lol 🧄)
