Good idea that turned out to be terrible; eating extra crunchy crackers while listening to my Mandarin lesson.

"Hm. In effort to _not_ get an heavily wuxia slanted vocabulary I'd probably watch something modern."

*scrolls through Viki*

"A grave robbing thriller*? In China it actually makes sense. And at least they're plundering their _own_ tombs...

...

...I _hope_"

My Mandarin reading exercise: ..."the movie is a romance"...

Me: No way!🙀 In _China_??? Who'da _thunk_...

(It may be selection bias on either me or Viki, but I've never stumbled across so many romances as when I started watching C-drama.)

Hello! I'm Martha Crimson. I'm a habitual language learner, and I hate inflecting verbs.

Trying to learn a new language? Listen to someone who's studied ~10 languages. Look up these words and memorize them, because they _will_ show up:

•coffee
•tea
•chocolate

The only language course where I wasn't taught these three was Classic Sanskrit. Good luck!
