What does this translate to?

This one you asked before. I don’t think it means anything, I think it’s a guess by someone who couldn’t make out this part of the recording.

oh i did, my bad just going over it again, thanks, do you recommend any interesting reading material on lingq or any that you like?

Well, I’d say first of all that I prefer material that isn’t so interesting to me that I need to understand what everything means. If I see something I really can’t understand, I want to be able to ignore it and keep moving.

I use a lot of imports. (Of course there’s no audio then.) An easy thing is to go to Wikipedia to some page on a topic that interests me, and see on the left bar whether there is a Chinese version. I’ve been reading about the Alien(s) movies and picking up a decent idea of some scifi terminology. Or you can figure out the Chinese translation of some term and google it and see if anything interesting comes up, like a blog.

One thing I’ve loaded is Chinese language board game comments on boardgamegeek. I definitely don’t always understand these comments, but I do get to learn the basic terminology.

I haven’t thoroughly explored what’s already available on LingQ. I’ve read good chunks of these though:

Chat Radio Transcripts

Ulowa Chinese Reading World - Beginner

Beginner stuff is fun to burn through to get easy “read words” and look for words you already know…

I’m likely to click on any course that says it has thousands of new words…

awesome thanks gotta implement some of these ideas
