Great Wall. Cheap drinks. What more can you ask?
I don’t understand the blank cartoon statements in this strip.

I think the statement means that the cartoon is not ready yet but will come soon.

I think it will be more useful if the chinese characters under the comics are larger and have the associated pin ying translations under them. There are some characters that appear that I’ve not covered yet in my series of lessons.

I think the cartoons are a very good idea…they make learning Chinese fun. They also make it a lot more easier to remember, funny too. Thanks Benny for taking the time.

Kuai is an informal way to say Yuan, the official China currency unit, equivalent to, for example, dollar in US. Local Chinese uses “kuai” more likely than “yuan”, but both are understood and are indeed the same.
In symbol, you can use either CNY or RMB. These stands for Chinese Yuan and Renminbi respectively.

Hi,
In fact, “kuài 快 = fast” and the other word is “块 kuài = currency”
They have exact same pronunciation but different characters, that’s why sometimes people get confused
