Permission Granted! New resource added!

Huanying! My new phrase 'Welcome' :D
Huan1ying ni3 dao4 "Di Nei Guo" lai, ha ha ha. Welcome to "Denaz land", ha ha ha.
You are probably wondering where it is on your map. To save you the trouble of searching for it, I will tell you it is near Never-Neverland, nan2 (south) of the State of Confusion, which is all a State of Mind, hee hee. Duibuqi (sorry), a moment of humor there. Mei wenti (no problem). I'm over it now. :D

Anyway, back to the news of today. :)
I learned three new words today: Bei3 = North, Nan2 = South, and Jing1=capital.
Soooo, with that knowledge I now know that the city Beijing is to the North and that the city Nanjing is to the South...and that they are fairly large (in regards to population) . Since "jing" is "capital", it stands to reason that it has a lot of "traffic" :D.

OH!! And the site where I learned all this is called www.CriEnglish.com.

An excellent resource for any beginner ;-P.

New Resource Afoot!

Hi everybody!
Da jia hao!
Today I learned some new words "huo" (fire), "che" (vehicle), and "shan" (mountain)
Together they make up new words...For example a "huoche" (fire vehicle) is a "train", and "huoshan"(fire mountain) = "volcano".
I also learned that they say "tou" (head of) cattle like we do...except they omit the "of" :D.
Now..."ge" is a number counter, like tou "head of cattle" for most nouns. So "yi ge ren" = one person, er ge ren = two people. However, they have many more "noun counters", for example, "tiao" is used instead of "ge" when the noun is something long and thin ....like a river. san tiao he chuan = 3 rivers.

I found this on a website, but still waiting on permission to add the link to this site. :)

All for now.
