Malanting, note that some of your images aren't working as the sites they are on don't allow them to be used elsewhere. Perhaps 盗链 can be a word of the day ;-)

Your Chinese is incredible. But which one do you mean? They seem to be working fine to me.

[skylee]

Roddy is right.

And yes his Chinese is good.

the picture in 159 illustrating 络腮胡 didn't come through for me.

And the last one at #147.

I hear he even knows that Mandarin has 4 tones.

[skylee]

But have you heard him say the four tones?

[realmayo]

Doesn't Roddy say not to bother with tones? Oh, and that Chinese has no grammar?

[imron]

But have you heard him say the four tones?

On multiple occasions.

Doesn't Roddy say not to bother with tones? Oh, and that Chinese has no grammar?

But he does it in such an incredible way

[roddy]

FOUR??!!??!! can't believe the New Impractical Chinese Reader lied to me.

[heifeng]

hehehe..

Ok, I'm late to the action, but yep, I applaud the effort put into this thread. To show my support, here is an article I came across today chocked-full of key vocab from day 10: 高考危机：优质生“暴走”留洋 Which goes to show you the minute you learn a new word or phrase, the next minute you will probably bump into it....words...everywhere..more and a more...

I have no problem with both. Anyone else who can't see the images?

[imron]

Neither of those come through for me either, and they are replaced with images that say don't link to these images from other sites.

This also happens with a reasonable number of the other images that you have included in your other posts. A better idea would be to link to the page that has the picture on it, rather than embedding the picture in the post directly.

[malanting]

Is it possible for me to upload the images? How come I can see them?

[imron]

It is possible. You can just download them to your computer and them upload them as part of your post in the "More Reply Options" section. However it's usually more polite (not to mention also avoids any potential copyright issues) if you link to the picture rather than embedding it.
