中文挑战

Just to clarify: we ask questions here, right, not in the "app"?

And that question above doesn't count as one of my 21 questions, does it?

Crap, have I just used to 2 of my questions?

Oh no, is that 3 now?

Questions in English don't count towards the 21. And yes, you ask questions in the comments. But if you already know the answer, you can just directly post it as a comment with a spoiler tag.

[i assume the answer to the riddle is a type of 用品? Is that how to interpret the format?]

那個用品， 可以在廚房裡面找到嗎？

是，这个用品可以在厨房里找到。

那個用品， 可以通常在廚房外面找到嗎？

[我想到第一個問題很含混.]

是，在厨房外也通常能碰到这个用品。

Can native speakers of Chinese answer this? Or it's a practice exclusively for Chinese learners?

@semantic nuance: Feel free to participate. 可是请你用中文问问题。

喔! 對不起! 請問spoiler tag 在哪裡? 我知道答案。

No need to apologize, I think I should have said "你问关于谜语的是非题时，请用中文".

@semantic nuance, the spoiler tag is the third icon from the left on the top row; hover over it and it's called "Special BBCode", click on it and select spoiler. Isn't that obvious? [At one time roddy added a spoiler tag icon, but I don't see it now.]

那個用品比麵包箱大嗎？

否，比面包箱小。

I assume 面包箱 means bread box, not toaster.

I'm not sure what 面包箱 means either, but yes, I was trying to say "bread box".

Searching for 面包箱 on Google yields images of bread boxes, so I think that's what bread box is in Chinese.

那两个兄弟吃的饭， 是人吃的一样吗？

[i really hope that question makes sense and I didn't totally misunderstand the riddle.]

与此无关。两个兄弟没办法吃饭。

[i'm pretty sure you were asking if the "two brothers" eat food like a person does.]

Humm, did I get the question to riddle right? I would translate it as

Two brother of average height, they eat three meals a day but don't grow fat.

好像有点误会。在这里“一般”不是“平均”的意思，而是“同样”的意思。

还有，“一日三餐”不一定是吃三餐的意思。

这个东西比较软吗？

否。这个东西比较硬。

在吃饭的时候，你用这个东西吗？

是。正在吃饭的时候，你可以用这个东西。

I can't think of a good reason to limit the number of questions to 21, so I'm removing the restriction.

<P>是筷子吗?</P>
