Day 5 - Last day :(

I can't believe it's the final day already! Things have gone really well this week and we're together for our final day today. At the moment we're learning all the absolutely vital phrases for all young people in any language - 你有男朋友吗?"Do you have a boyfriend"...! More later.

Day 4 - What a brilliant day!

I think I'm speaking for everyone involved when I say that today was a really good day! Although we didn't do lots of language I think we learned loads today! Finding out about the Chinese Community in Scotland was really interesting and the story of the families who walked from China to Scotland were quite awe-inspiring.

The meal was absolutely fabulous! My favourite has to be the lamb, but the sweet and sour pork was a close second! It was great trying all the food and the company was great too!

I think my favourite part of the day though has to be the Tai Chi session. It was quite something watching Master Tang and I was well impressed with everyone's attempts! A million times better than my own as you'll probably see from the photos which I'm uploading at the moment!

What did you all think about today? Did you enjoy it? Tomorrow is our last day already - it seems like the week has gone by so quickly. Do you feel you've learned a lot? I hope so! Hopefully you've also enjoyed being with other people who are equally interested in Chinese.

Writing 拼音 pīnyīn

Writing Chinese in pinyin using numbers can be quite tricky to read, so it may be a good idea to post as far as possible using the accents. 林凡 has suggested that it may be possible to open this rtf file in Word and then you can copy and paste the characters into the webpage. I hope this works and that it helps!
