“ni zhen ke lian” = you’re so pity(?)
. . . is that like “you poor thing” or more like, “sucks to be you”?

Dee,
Shang4wu3= Morning
Xia4wu3=Afternoon
Zhen1= Really (Like “Really Good” Zhen1 Hao3)
de = possessive indicator, like an apostrophe

I’ve heard of the phrase 可是 (ke3 shi4) in manderin, which I think also means “but.” If so, is there a difference between 可是 and 但是?

H Benny, your lessons are easy to swallow for beginners like me. Thanks.
I’ve also heard “bu4 guo4” also being translated as “but”. what’s the difference? Thanks.

By the way I am an English teacher living in Jiangyan just 3 hours from Shanghai (I have only been here 1 month hence the reason my Chinese is so poor!). Im very impressed with your lesson structure. So much clearer then the other websites. I am using a similar lesson structure to teach a friend English at the moment.
