Most Chinese teachers tell you to use 和 (hé) to say "with" but it actually means "and". It's OK but not perfect... why? https://t.co/57AXB8xhVg

@TravelsChinese @GoEastMandarin I've heard that some companies in Shanghai ban Shanghainese (dialect) because locals use it as an elite status symbol and to gossip. sad that cultural heritage is used to look down on others.

[Sarah 江淼 @GoEastSarah]

using Chinese language as a bridge to connect cultures and people globally through speech contests - sounds fun! @chinese_cio https://t.co/027FWq93vA

what's the origin of #hashtag? bonus: hashtag in Chinese is 标签 biāo qiān #learnchinese https://t.co/64LGbNl8ZQ

[prof proof @profofproof]

#Etymologists surmise the eight points of an #octothorpe are to blame for the "octo" syllable. The source of the "thorpe" portion? It could be the bestower's surname, or an homage to athlete #JimThorpe, or it's from the Old #English word for village.

useful grammar point - ask for an explanation:
why is it not + adjective?
This clothing is really not expensive.
why isn't it expensive?
为什么不贵呢？
(implied meaning: what's wrong with this clothing?!)

[HowToSayInChinese @SayinChinese]

Why Not 为什么不 + ADJECTIVE (+ 呢 Ne)

*Underlined words = Adjectives
