From its headquarters tracking online sentiment, Google was sure somewhat strange was happening in the country, but what exactly?Learning Chinese? This lesson is for Absolute Beginners to the Chinese language. Even if you don't know any mandarin this lesson should be simple enough to get you started. So join us as we cover two essentials: how to ask questions about time, and when and where to invoke the names of close friends and relatives. We thrive on your comments and suggestions, so if you have any, please feel free to leave a comment in the discussion space below or send us an email at service@popupchinese.com.

@Echo, is tamade more rude than nainaide? to strangers if i feel the need to use a medium swear word say one i could use

I am confused with the Hanzi worksheets produced for the students to practice character writing. Why some are simplified, some traditional on the same worksheet? Much better solution would be to publish two separate worksheets, one with simplified, one with traditional characters only. Lijing

@jjanina,
The character worksheets should default to your character setting. So simplified by default, and traditional if you've switched your display preferences to traditional on your settings page:

If you're getting a strange mixture of the two please let me know. It is working for me here.

@richard,
Yes, ta1ma1de5 is way more rude. You can use nai3nai5de5 in your sample sentence. No problem. If you are not saying "your" nai3nai5de5 to anyone, it's not rude at all actually.
The word for "even if" is ji2shi3, and yes, you need "ye3"there, because it's a set phrase.

I was under the impression that 奶奶的 was short for 去你奶奶的。。。。well I'll leave that last word to your imagination.
Echo

@wytcheking,
Yes, exactly! However, 奶奶的 is way less rude. It doesn't sound like a swear word.

Can you use tia1n ne and na3inai de as positive exclamations? Kind of like someone saying, "Oh my god!" when they get a pleasant surprise?

tian ne can be positive, nainai de however is generally negative.

Depends on the context, right? Inflection can spin meaning into almost anything. That said, you'll need to sound fluent before listeners will even realize that you're playing around. And many people won't even realize it in that situation.
