Okay. I think my textbook was wrong or explained it in a confusing manner then. Thanks
for the clarification. I've been learning Mandarin from mostly Taiwanese teachers thus far, so my Chinese is a little Taiwan-y (han4 instead of he2, le4se4 instead of la1ji1). But I really want to live in the Mainland for a while, and so I want to learn the Mainland way as well. I'll look for those dictionaries you mention! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I'm afraid that I can't open this web page "http://www.box.net/shared/x81tnvhct3".

Hoping that works! Remove the extra space between 2 and 0. Edited by bouda on 11 August 2009 at 5:12am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Welcome to Tianjin China, Tianjin is one of the most livable international city (my hometown) in Mainland China. http://www.nankai.edu.cn/english/ 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Okay, thanks! I was just worried that I was going in completely the wrong direction.
Tianjin and Nankai University sound very nice (I'm checking out the link you gave me right now). I don't know much about the city though because most of my Chinese friends are from the Beijing area. Edited by bouda on 11 August 2009 at 5:22am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Tianjin (famous commercial & industrial city in northern China, while Shanghai in southern China) is very close to Beijing (it takes half hour or more for Tianjiners to get to Beijing by high-speed train), and almost everything (including university tuition) of Tianjin is much cheaper than Beijing, and Beijing is too crowded with people and cars to accommodate more spaces for newcomers, whereas the current status of Tianjin is much better in some respects. Yes, Beijing is the capital & cultural center of Mainland China, but Tianjin may be more livable to some extent.
