Hi Melody Now, It's your turn

Oh yeah! :)

Hi Maelle, it's nice to hear from you!

Merci Melody2
Happy new year !

Happy new year to you too!

Glad to hear it... happy new year, honey!

That's alright Boris, I wasn't offended.

My apologies, Melody, I've been as busy as lazy , resulting as a jerk look-alike to you, I guess...
Please forgive me, I'll try to take a look here more frequently and answer your interesting messages in the future!

Thanks Sammi, glad I could help.

Melody, this is all so very helpful! thanks for the language lesson! :)

Q is pronounced "ch" so Qin and Chin sound the same.
X sounds like "sh"
ao sounds like ow as in cow.
(To my ears anyway)

Thanks for that info Boris, now I have a better idea of where you spring from. I have been to rainbow beach a number of times! I have been to all the places that you mentioned except for Esperance. I've been along the WA coast from Perth to Albany and I have been across the Nullarbor Plain but I went North to Kalgoorlie, I did not go south to Esperence. I've also travelled the coast road from Perth to Broome and Derby and then cut inland to Fitzroy Crossing, Wyndham and into Northern Territory. There are no coastal roads north of Broome, probably because 'The Kimberley' is nearly all national park. Maybe you already know this. You are lucky to have travelled so much.

I live in southern France, about an hour drive from the Méditerranée and Marseille , in a district named "Gard" (#30, there are 95 in domestic France).
I enjoyed all of what I saw, like for instance the lovely city of Perth (I've been all the way from Broome to Esperance).
In the east, I traveled down from Townsville to Sydney 3 times, I loved Brisbane, Byron Bay and even a small town called "Rainbow Beach" which I'm sure you never went to!

Hi Boris, you are right, I live in North West Sydney. Where abouts in France do you live? Which parts of Qld and WA did you like? (I've never been to Europe)

At its height, the Grand Canal of China joined Beijing to Hangzhou. It was 1776Km long. Parts of it are still in use today. It was started in the 5th century BC in Suzhou (The canal city) and the Suzhou canal is still in full use today. It was completed in the Sui Dynasty in 618CE. There is a whole lot of history associated with the canal. It was used extensively to transport grain and other commodities. If you are interested you can look it up.

You're right, I'm french and nobody could be more interested in places than me!
I had the chance to visit Australia 6 times and particularly enjoyed Queensland and Western Australia.
Since you dwell around international students, I guess you must live in Sydney or melbourne.
Your additions are always welcome, learning is an unending joy!

Zh is "j" zhou is pronounced "joe"
zhou means provincial capital so places ending in zhou are usually big cities. (not always capitals)
e.g. The capital of Guangdong is Guangzhou.
The capital of Fujian is Fuzhou.
(Guizhou is a province - just to be different)
I am glad that you are enjoying my little additions Boris.

Hi Boris, I am not chinese. I teach international students in a Uni-college in Australia but I was a tourist in China last year and many of my students are Chinese. Mostly I am just really interested in places as I am sure you are. Are you French?

I copy, I paste and I thank you...
By the way , are you chinese?
