不好意思! 我忘了農曆新年! 我以前的老師會殺死我!  :wink:

Embarrassing. Leave Taiwan for just a few months and you already start forgetting major holidays. Guess it's easier to miss without the fireworks.

新年快樂!

And may the new year find you high and dry and above water, as well.

願新的一年裡找到你高，乾燥，也高於水。

没关系！ 你的中文很好。:wink:   你是哪国人？

I apologise to those who are unable to display Chinese characters. I know it's a hassle to set up (under Windows at least), and unless you have some need to read and write Chinese, it is not worth it. Next year, perhaps I'll display an image instead. :)

Happy New Year to all celebrating it at this time! Rabbit? Just two weeks ago I had to buy something to wrap around our apple trees to prevent the hares from chewing the bark off. Seems to have worked.

The Chinese characters were displayed just fine on my screen even though I don't think I ever actively aided my laptop to do so.

Hopefully all the forumites and their loved ones affected by the various storms around the planet are safe, warm and dry.

美國人, 但是我在台灣住了三年, 差不多, 所以我會寫一點中文. 那是為什麼我總是用正體字: 我老師總是告訴我們應該說'正體字',不應該說'繁體字'! 她是一位比較傳統的人, 不太喜歡大陸的字. 我對簡體字還不夠熟, 但是我可以看懂一點.

我認識很多字, 但是我感覺我的文法還不好. 我也不認識很多成語. 很麻煩!

...

Sorry, everyone. I know, this is an English language board and not everyone can even display the above, much less read it. Suffice to say I just got back from a long stint overseas in Taiwan in which I picked up some Mandarin language skills, so even though I don't frequent Chinese language boards that much anymore, I'm still terribly prone to respond to Chinese with Chinese when I see it.  :-)

If it weren't for online translation, this would be a terribly confusing thread. Except for the English/Mandarin/Irish/Russian/...whatever that last language is polyglots among the QC community.
