谢谢,郑翰森
I believe I've read some of those books mentioned above. Perhaps the pages got rebound. The idea of shells or snow makes me cringe. Thanks for the great link to an amusing article. Bathroom language would make an interesting study.

哪里, 哪里。 中文写字很美观。 中国话也很好听。 我也很高兴认识你。

Please share any interesting language articles that you find. You may well have access to materials in English about English that represent perspectives of great value.

Btw, a while back on the show we were talking about words for the cardboard tubes inside rolls of toilet paper, like "oh-a oh-a" and "hoo hoo."

Just saw a nice depiction of what you can actually DO with your hoo hoo.
