Chinese Pin Ying: wo xianzai xuexi zhongwen.  bu shi rongyi, danshi wo xihuan xuexi.  yihou, wo bu hui jiang zhongwen.  wo xianzai kuaile yingwei wo xianzai hui jiang yidian zhongwen.  zai zhongguo [culture club] he zhongguo [Christian Fellowship] wo hui jiang duo zhongwen.  Ruguo ni xiang, gen wo jiang zhongwen.  wo jiang hen shao.

translation: I am learning Chinese.  Its not easy but I like to learn.  In the past, I couldnt speak Chinese.  But I'm happy because now I can speak a little bit.  At the Chinese Culture Club and Chinese Christian fellowship I get to speak a lot of Chinese to practice.  If you would like, speak with me in Chinese.  I dont get to talk often.


German: Heute ich habe ein [Chinese Culture Club] und [Chinese Christian Fellowship meeting].  Elf Uhr morgens ich zu viel frei [pizza] um CCC gegessen habe. Dann um drei Uhr Nachmittags CCF hat frei [pizza] auch!  Ich gegessen sehr viel [pizza], dass ich bin jetzt mollig.  Donnerstag habe ich meine zuerst [debate] Vorlesung.  Es war eine nett Vorlesung, aber die Vorlesung hat nur drei Studenten.  Donnerstag habe ich [Student Senate position].

Translation: Today I had a Chinese Culture Club and Chinese Christian Fellowship meeting.  At 11:00 this morning I ate so much free pizza at CCC.  Then at 3:00 CCF had free pizza too! I ate so much pizza that now im a little plump.  Tuesday I had my first debate class of the semester.  It was a nice class, but the class only has 3 students.  Tuesday I recieved a officer seat on the Mt. SAC student Government.

Aspects of help- 1. I'm beggining to learn past tense now, so I think my grammatical order is sometimes very off for those sentences.  I dont know when to place "habe" at the end or at the beggining since I have seen both ways in the book.  Any help would be appreciated.  2. I know that frei = free as in freizeit = free time.  But does frei also mean "at no monetary cost"?  Thanks a lot.

Wo xiang yong zhongwen he riyu [characters]- I wish I could use Chinese and Japanese characters in xanga to make reading easier.  If anyone knows how, please let me know, thanks.

Japanese hiragana in roman letters:  Watashi wa kinoo Golden Dragon restoran de hiru-gohan o tabe-mashita.  Brian wa (who works at Discount Tires) mainichi Golden Dragon restoran de hiru-gohan o tabe-masu.  Sam wa (the owner of Golden Dragon) Brian o yobi-masu.  

German: Sam rufen Brian an.  Sam sage,"Chris ist meinen Bruder.  Er kauft deinen [car tires].  Ist der [Car tires] am billigsten?"  Wenn ich bezahle der [tires], Brian sagt mich ein [discount] hat.  fuenfzig-zehn=vierzig geld.  Sam ist einen nett Man.

wow, this was a rough writing since I was so tired- too many mistakes.  Anyways, translation - Yesterday I ate dinner at Golden Dragon restaurant.  Brian, (a person who works at Discount Tires) eats at Golden Dragon restaurant everyday, since they are right next to each other. (I paid for my car tire to be changed at Discount Tires and walked over to Golden Dragon and ate there as I waited for the service to be done).  Sam, the nice owner of Golden Dragon called Brian and told him he was my brother and wanted a discount for me at Discount Tires.  When I went to pay for the tires, Brian said that he would give me a discount, $50-10=$40.  Sam is a pretty nice guy.

He didnt even know me and he got me the discount, and he was Chinese too, and he still said he was my brother =)  I actually talked to him for a while and he was a really nice guy.  He owns the resturant, plays music professionally, and does computer programming.  I think I'll talk to him more in the future and see if I can evangelive to him.

A nice conversation I had in German today with one of my friends I made in Singapore (who is a international student from China)
