Outofin Posted August 24, 2005 at 11:43 PM Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 at 11:43 PM Don't feel embarrassed because I don't know how to answer the questions even though I'm a Chinese. And I have no idea why people like to ask them. When some one made some dishes for you, (s)he will ask 这菜够咸吗？ If you answer yes, that means the dish is bad. If you answer no, (s)he will give you some salt. When you're a child, people will ask 喜欢爸爸还是妈妈？ You'd better to pretend dumb, because your parents are both staring at you. When you grow up, you're likely to see other people's babies. They'll ask 这孩子像爸爸还是像妈妈？ %#$@^$%! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you answer no, (s)he will give you some salt. 你答：這菜不錯，很好吃。 When you're a child, people will ask喜欢爸爸还是妈妈？ 你答：喜歡奶奶。 You'd better to pretend dumb, because your parents are both staring at you. When you grow up, you're likely to see other people's babies. They'll ask 这孩子像爸爸还是像妈妈？ 你答：樣子像媽媽，性格像爸爸。 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
