This video was recorded by a British girl and features an Australian man and an American woman recording a dialogue intended to assist Chinese students learning English. It singlehandedly explains all the Chinglish you’ve ever seen. As you watch, keep in mind that they were not allowed to alter the script in any way. Enjoy the increasing insanity as the Australian man starts playing multiple parts. Don’t forget to listen carefully to exactly what they say.
The fake glasses are Korean.
And here are some random photos from January last year when CJ and I went to Beijing.
I blogged about China here and here, and about the Great Wall here.
Hey Louise,
Just thought I’d drop you a comment on the recently completed twittertale. I really couldn’t follow this one at all, sorry! Perhaps if I read it through all in one sitting, I might understand more of it, but for the most part, I was fairly lost.
Bring back the thwacking of zombies with cricket bats! 😉
Best,
Jolyon
Jolyon: Thanks for that data. This next one is another real-time tale (“Cinders” was a cannibalised short story), so you should like it better.
