Q: Is “dui bu qi” an OK substitute for the other phrase you teach?
Comment: When you say you are going to give a few seconds of silence to respond in the rap up…you really don’t. I can’t keep up & I’m familiar with some of those phrases.
These lessons are a breath of fresh air after working with the Pimsleur method. Pimsleur’s good, but some of the lessons are a bit much to chew at one time & hard to hear proper sounds & tones.
Your lessons are short & relevant. And have added culture info & variations. We experienced oodles of peddlers at the Forbidden City in Nov. It might have been helpful to have those phrases.
But…we were with a group that moved pretty quickly & unfortunately couldn’t even stop long enough to use those phrases OR to even take them up on their bargain of Beijing olympic trinkets after we said no 10x.
OK…so I finally peeked at lesson 10 & answered my own question. That’s the 1 Pimsleur teaches & also my Chinese daughter uses it profusely when she thinks she hurt someone.
