Darryn Turbocharged April 26, 2010 Author Share April 26, 2010 i can never really fathom the basics of english. fetch, send, bring etc. and btw, dun bother. thanks. I think you are much better off than me though - I don't even come close to getting this "tone" thing in chinese. And I used to wonder why my teacher always think I be rude to her by calling her rat. But also to be fair, chinese doesn't recognise a difference between borrow / lend or fetch / send right? So is very understandable why it gets mixed up. I see my own daughter do it when she translate directly from Chinese to English. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
