Great to sit in a lecture by 2004 Nobel laureate @FrankWilczek . As a person from the humanities, I couldn’t follow most of the talk, but I always remember how fascinated I was when I read his book Fundamentals.

@Laserhedvig (2/2) On the other hand, since everyone in the audience was Chinese, I didn't have to give the presentation all in English.

[Pin Wang @wangpin8012]

@Laserhedvig (1/2) Depends on the topic and audience, I think. I did this a couple of times; it worked very well. I didn't have to translate all foreign terms into Chinese that might be confusing, because the audience knew them in English well.

Someone's (proudly? shamelessly?) introducing the new book and its chapters at China's annual SFL conference.

When the autumn sky is clear you can see above your head the three constellations that share a common character (仙 xian: fairly, immortal, celestial being) in their Chinese names: Perseus (英仙 brave immortal), Cassiopeia (仙后 fairy queen), Andromeda (仙女 celestial maiden).
