absurd characters
post on things that are found while studying Chinese. First of all, I want to say one thing: the Chinese alphabet has NO, no characters, no hieroglyphics, and neither disegnetti (the first one who tells me again broke it in two -__-)! They are called characters, each character corresponds to a syllable and Chinese words are often monosillache or syllable, but often there are words of three syllables.
Each character consists of several components, which may indicate the significance or sound.
This is obviously the explanation "dives."
That said, a step show you some neat things I found looking through my electronic dictionary.
The character of "suspicion" is 疑 yi, and even if the present form is slightly different, the history of the character is as follows: the component in atomic 匕 is left for the character 人 (ren), in person, then all 'beginning was the nature of child 子, so we 矢 weapon, and a victim 匕. Who could have been if not 子, baby?
do not know, but I read this story in the dictionary, I rolled with laughter.
Ah, you know how to say "mirage" in Chinese? 海市蜃楼 hǎishìshènlóu, translated literally means City of the sea, seafood palace.
I mean, what is the logic in that?

How To Make A Helmet Cake
abusive 2-1 waiguoren
This story is unbelievable. Maybe in a little 'time I could laugh up quietly, but now I'll leave you alone laugh.
Yesterday we went to the Great Wall (I'll do a separate post just for that truly deserves) and we organized everything by metro to the station, up to 980 autubus Miyun Village, minibuses and then taxi.
early in the morning but started the problems, caused by taxi drivers who live in places that are a lot of tourists and sticky.
Just arrived Hookshot to the station we were one of those who wanted at all costs to bring in his minibus, to the point that we followed too sull'autubus. We continue to ignore it, we accomondate autubus in with this guy who kept blathering that the Great Wall there were autubus (!) And then had to go with him at some point the driver ordered him to leave since he was about to leave.
And this was the first episode in a long line ... To Miyun
The journey was long, so we dozed off after a while '. At one point, there comes a man (we thought it was the driver, we have made good) that says we have come to Miyun and those who went to the Great Wall had come down. Our mistake was to believe him, and believe the bus to other guys who agreed with him. As soon as we realize
got to be in the middle of nowhere, with a row of taxi drivers waiting for us. In the space of two seconds we are assailed by the usual "Hey, minibus! Great wall, very cheap! No bus for the Great Wall."
ignoring beautifully we head toward a woman in uniform, a conductor of the bus and ask for information. His answer: "No bus for Miyun. And the one with which we got then?
realized that there were making fun, we decided not to give it and then wait again won the 980 with which we had arrived. The
autubus (the face of the "no bus") comes after thirty seconds and as soon as we move to rise, the frenzy begins: a taxi driver stands in front of the door to not get us! We also waiguoren, but we are not idiots and we do not put in so easily, then we begin to scream to move (in Chinese) and even began to push him away. After seeing that we were quite aggressive and pissed as vipers, the type was finally moved up on leaving autubus and without further incident, we arrived in Miyun. I got off the bus we went to look for the shuttle and of course we were tailed by another taxi driver and there we are back to the stop dell'autubus merging institutions. In this way
hilarious conversations:
"There are autubus to the Great Wall "
" There are, there are ... "
" No, not true. I'll take you there. I make good money "
" No, look, let it be, let's walk! "
" But it's far away! "
" Better, do a little 'working'
autubus Eventually we got there and the Wall.
In return, however, there have been a bit 'of problems at four o'clock there were no more buses for the return! We were down to five and we waited a good half hour, but nothing.
So the end we had to give in to the taxi drivers, who were already rubbing their hands in view of all the pennies that we gave.
We fought with all our strength, but in the end they won. Only the first set, though! The game is not over yet.

Spanish Reading For A Wedding Ceremony
The magnificent dives in Beijing
Ah, Beijing ... I have not written for a long time, I realize, but I was too busy studying and eating to do anything else.
Today I will talk about food, because it is a topic that is close to my heart (who knows me knows this) and here in China it is very fashionable.
I am now passed to another stage in the sinicization: eat at roadside taverns. In China are very popular so-called 小吃 Xiao Chi: the sides of the street you can find very easily carts full of local delicacies and not, as well as the "taverns" that serve as pseudo untissime restaurants. After going through the anguish
starting to get into this closet with four tables on the cross and full of grease, they discover that the real delights. I ate a delicious plate of spaghetti (肉 炒面) that was the end of the world.
So if you come to China and you're not picky, Immerse yourself in the wonderful world of taverns: the food is good and inexpensive, and (for girls) get adoring looks from the native Chinese as soon as they realize that they know to handle a few 块 子 (kuàizi and rods).
Ah, I forgot, on FacciaLibro there is also a dedicated group of tavern mannikin of baozi: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1090005530&ref=profile # / pages / The-Baozzettaro -di-Pechino/112554918760194? ref = ts . Enjoy.
