@cc7d023f9243a4fc5456f2e704a670a5:disqus – 😉 In that sense, HK and Taiwan aren’t all that different, are they?
one more:
let me double check for you
and another one:
realllllyyyy?
@d9df8e51ede7c8d84dc6c9cd5f3815e1:disqus – mhhhoooo la!
you forgot to ad “lar” to the ending of a lot of these.
@google-60b56e61d3e56f868ec0e6c9c2c53430:disqus – good point! 🙂 ga…  could never quite figure out the context difference between la and ga.
sometimes it’s both… ga la…
HAHAHAHAAA
I don’t know what are the context that you hear them. But some of them are actually friendly compliments, like ” You know HK better than I do.”
@f788a0ac5d785b5f614e3389cf2b9dc1:disqus – yeah, i don’t think any of those were meant to hurt my feelings. but in this sentence there’s also something very humbling or complaining about self conditions. i wonder, do you get that sort of sentence in Israel/Europe very often?
You speak Chinese so well. Your mom must be Chinese.
I like this post quite a bit. Thanks for the laughs.
I hate Filipinos and White guys from the US but my parent is too open for me to date other peoples but I just only like Chinese and other Asians
