Well, ni zhe dao zai nar xishoujian, is like...grammatically incorrect
As well as that it should be zhi not zhe
But it says: Do you know where the bathroom is?
In like broke chinese...? lol
If you want to ask where the toilet is, you can say:

(請問) 洗手間哪裡?
(Qing wen) xi shou jian zai na li?
Or sub na li with nar. Na li and nar= same thing
depending where you are, different places in china will say either nar or na li

^ really? lol wow that surprises me because in chinese class we have a skit to perform next tuesday and our teacher was kind of editing my group's script and that's what she wrote. "ni zhi dao zai nar xi shou jian?"

i knew it sounded wrong but grammar is my weak point so i couldn't correct it. thanks for the help!

^to saolaoane:

another way to say is :
1）你知不知道洗手间在哪儿？-ni zhi bu zhi dao xi shou jian zai nar?
2）你知道(在)哪儿有洗手间吗？- ni zhi dao (zai) nar you xi shou jian ma?

QUOTE (Yin @ Nov 30 2007, 06:00 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>

lol. You missed out "在"

（请问）洗手间在哪里？

btw, for those who are wondering why the characters are different, it is because I am using the simplified form of chinese.

haha yea I think he was saying 지랄 to you.. which isn't something that nice to say. It means acting unreasonably, making a scene/fuss, go crazy, etc.

Since this is the chinese help thread..
How would you say: "I like..."?
Like, for ex: "I like this book."

you can say 我喜欢___ (wo xi huan____)
or
我爱___ (wo ai___) --though this is more towards "love"

i like this book: 我喜欢这本书 wo xi huan zhe ben shu

i am becoming so bored I am starting to stalk this thread =.=

^ wait, so "xi huan" means "to like", and "zhe ben shu" means "this book"? What is "book" in Chinese?

wo shi AI ni means
wo = I
shi = do?
ai = love
ni= you

shi can be used for many meanings.. but on the whole it means i do love you

maybe you can try putting the intonations and i can help you more
