as far as i know dogs are cooked only in south china - they also have specially-bred dogs, no pets

that's not true at all.

Dog meat is prevalent throughout China, as a northerner, I myself, have eaten a dog

[Deleted]

I saw a video online once of some Chinese people eating a squid while it was still alive...not sure if it was real or fake but is that really something that is consumed in China? I don't think I could eat anything that was still alive lol.

Also, for the people that arrived late to this thread...I am just curious what was in his signature that he had to take out? The curiosity is le killing me =P

He had his email address in his sig, i warned him against it.

no yet, if given a chance, i will choose Taoism, which advocates retiring from the world to enjoy the real life instead of working hard for little salary

No problem, I'm sure plenty of people here will be happy to correct your english :-) First off though, are you learning English or US English (English being the language as it's used in England)? Most of the language rules are the same, but there're some differences in spelling and vocabulary.

Do you live in a city by choice? What do you like about it?
I lived in London for several years; I quite enjoyed it while I was there, but I didn't properly relax until I left again. I prefer being much nearer to the countryside! :-)

How bad is the censorship in China and do you ever feel oppressed or annoyed by it? Do people there generally want less censorship or are they fine with its current levels?

Also I've been told that many youth in China are unaware of the Tiananmen Square incident. Is this true or are you and other people your age aware of what happened?

Sorry if these questions are too political. I've just been curious about these two questions for a long time

[Underskilled]

I have a question. Normally I dislike some music, but when it's sung in a language I don't know anything about (for example, Chinese) it sounds a lot better. Since you seem to have a firm grasp of the English Language, before you learned English, did you ever have the same feeling listening to a song in English?

[Tilie]

Do you find it mind blowing that if I point my finger up right now its actually pointing down where you live?

[KirillCN]

Jet Li vs Jackie Chan who would win?

How many gold farmers do you know? And is it actually a way to get by in china?

Are chinese girls gold diggers?

Did you get Cata exp yet? If no are you excited about it.

How big is wow in china vs other mmo's

1: i think half and half ,lol,because i admire both of them
2. what is gold farmer ? i don't understand , maybe Nongping Yuan is one of them?
3.No, we must wait untill 12th ,July
4.what you refer to is forum ? China has a biggest Forum whose name is NGA, i don't think NGA is better than MMO

---------- Post added 2011-07-04 at 09:50 PM ----------

talk about a China fanboy psh...

what your refer to is the fanboy of the WOW?
we see the WOW as a entertainment instead of a work (or profession)

[Deleted]

By 'mmo's' hes referring to MMORPG's (Massively-Multiplayer-Online-Role-Playing-Game) In China

[Aliessil]

1: i think half and half ,lol,because i admire both of them
2. what is gold farmer ? i don't understand , maybe Nongping Yuan is one of them?
3.No, we must wait untill 12th ,July
4.what you refer to is forum ? China has a biggest Forum whose name is NGA, i don't think NGA is better than MMO

2. Gold Farmers are people who farm for gold within WOW, then sell it for money in the real world (generally through gold-selling websites). Most gold-farmers on EU and US websites are supposed to be living in China. Apparently they can earn more money this way than through conventional jobs.

4. No, he was asking about the popularity of other MMO games, and how they compare to WOW (e.g. Aion, Guild Wars, etc). In other words, does WOW dominate the MMO industry in China, just like it does in the rest of the world?

Live squid is actually pretty tasty

:P

But it's so inhumane!

Edit: Forgot to add a question.

Are all the girls in China as hot as they are in movies/TV shows?

And this is not meant as racist, but is there as many karate/kung fu students as there is in "Karate Kid" etc?

Edit2: What does ICC (Icecrown Citadel) look like?

[KirillCN]

I don't have any questions, and I'll respect your no-politics but I find it funny you have the same issues in your country as everyone elses and you gave it a much higher rating than most people who notice things like corruption.

Personally since today is the 4th of July I am reminding people about the Revolutionary principles that this country was founded on.

So yah, that does lead to an interesting question.

Did you learn in your school American history, at least as far as the Declaration of Independence and the concept of revolution against oppressors?

this also a problem? LOL,I'd like to tell you ,we learned much in our high school,
we learnd history,hysics, biology, chemistry, literature, economics, political science, mathematics, literature, and geography and P.E
in history lession , we learned much about U,S including Lincoln
The declaration of independence ,After the establishment of the US ,Eisenhower even world war 2
i'm interest in US very much

the life situation in China is later your said , - the later of what you said
many people have enough money to buy the Iphone 4 and ipod
we never do our job just to make a living ,
but there's still much people living under the standard(if any spell mistake?) - correct
but that's just a few people
most of us will lead a happy life

Hope that helps - anyway onto my question:
Does some English slang words leave you confused for hours on end? Eg: using 'u' as a term for you?

yeah ,yeah,very much
there are many idiom and slang confused me very much ,such as CATA(we card it CTM in China)and LK(Lich KING) and so on
it's interest ,but i like it very much

maybe that man just want to help me to avoid spam (or junk mail?)
as for the video that Chinese eat alive Squid ,i think that phenomenon indeed exist in someplace nearby the sea and that may just a customs
i don't know has you hear about The Cove, this is a movie about Dolphin slaughter ,you could find some information about The Cove

LOL, your answer is pretty good

As a born and raised American, those very often get me confused for a bit.

On topic, is Wrath of the Lich King being released in patches as it was for the rest of the world? If so, what patch is out?

*As a born and raised American2*means 土生土长的. in Chinese
yes, Wrath of the Lich King being released as other counties
No we still is WLK ,as for CATA,we must wait untill july 12th

Edit2: What does ICC (Icecrown Citadel) look like?

1:I didn't Know the Exact meaning of “HOT”
but the answer is No, everyone has a weak side , maybe they just show the stronger side on TV
but there still a lot of Sex scandal of them
2:ICC i just enter into once ,but ICC indeed shocked me , beacuse ICC was very hug and every outfit given by boss is very good
so ICC i think is a good place to go
but it just a bit hard
