Chinese worksheets for Children
SamODell - May 18 2013 11:45 PM in Resources for Studying Chinese
I worked in China for several years teaching English and it was easy to find 100s of different types of worksheets for use while teaching Children English...now me and my Chinese wife have moved to England and we are struggling to find resources as plentiful as those for teaching English. Does anyone know any sites which share 'for free' worksheets or printouts which can be used for teaching Children Mandarin? Or any other site focused towards teaching children Mandarin which has any resources which mi...Latest of 2 replies by imron at Yesterday, 06:21 AM.
山崩土淹 When Hillsides Collapse

I came across an exhibition called When Hillsides Collapse today. There was a video that I thought was quite impressive. (I used to work in the Geotechnical Engineering Office and have a lot of respect for their work. So I might be a bit biased. ) Here is the video (in Putonghua with English subtitles) -> youtube - http://www.youtube.c...4DJ0wQ&index=17Latest of 0 replies by skylee at May 18 2013 10:32 PM.

The HK melting pot
carlo - May 18 2013 11:57 AM in Society
As a newly minted HK resident, I've begun paying attention to local news. This made the rounds yesterday and even my father sent me an email asking if we know what we are doing, as if there was a gang of hooded hooligans waiting to set our apartment on fire. It was indeed amusing to read that HKers prefer living next door to emotionally unstable people (which has happened to me at least once, and is definitely unpleasant) rather than to "foreign workers". Did something get lost in transl...Latest of 2 replies by carlo at May 18 2013 02:50 PM.

Pengyou - May 18 2013 09:58 AM in Reading and Writing Skills
I keep hoping that that HSK authorities will change the rules to allow the typing of Chinese instead of writing...but I have been told to not hold my breath. Request for discussion on this topic: I have seen many Chinese people using what I think are called xie zi ban 写字拌 ? or writing tablets to enter Chinese into a computer. Most of them, yes, are older individuals that did not learn how to type or use pinyin. But as someone who is at the beginning side of writing - maybe can write 50 cha...Latest of 6 replies by imron at Yesterday, 01:48 PM.

Help finding relative, urgent
pankaj_tin - May 17 2013 07:34 PM in Guangzhou & Shenzhen
Hi, I am Pankaj and please treat this as a urgent request. I am here to seek some help finding my fiance's (Tin's) grandmom. The problem is Tin has undergone intensive Chemotherapy sessions as she is a stage 4 blood cancer patient. So her memories are, to say the least "Foggy", the technical term is "Chemo Brain". Hence, I don't have full contact details of her grandma. The doctors tell me Tin does not have very long to live, so I am trying to find her grandma asap. But I only have...Latest of 0 replies by pankaj_tin at May 17 2013 07:34 PM.
