incubus.. as in the demon that rapes you in your sleep lol (yeah i know it's a weird question to ask haha) is there even a chinese word for it? but thank you anyway =)

google translator says 梦魇, like what vvn said, but its pronounced meng4 mo2 in chinese which is literally dream demon.

Well It is read as Meng4 Yan3. It is like a nightmare or a feeling that when you sleep, you are being pressed down by someone. Well, basically it is due to tiredness.

^ Sorry for having you wait so long. I have just received a notice from the supplier that there are too many bad products so there is a supply shortage. Will you consider switching to other products? Waiting for your reply.

Listening is 听, in simplified chinese, anyone here who is like fluent/can read like most of it?

[tomatotooty]

hmmm i am fluent in chinese. well i'm chinese and i live in singapore. so yeah, i learn simplified chinese in school but i can read traditional chinese too. the two "listen"s are correct lol

[PDURRR]

Can someone help me with measure words? Like when/what to use them for? I know 本 is used for things with binding like books, magazines, etc., but I get confused with the rest. Is 匹 only used for horses and donkeys? My teacher gave us a list but it's not very helpful. 块 is used for 'irregular shapes', but what exactly is irregular? It says blackboard and eraser, but I don't find them irregular.
支
张
块
本
条
把
辆
匹
Thank you so much to whoever can help.

QUESTION,
i recently watched some dramas & i kept hearing "我好不霜。"
so i figured it meant something like, "i don't like it"
but when i asked my mom, she was like, "girls shouldn't say that..."
and my dad was like "YOU CAN'T SAY THAT."

is it like a bad phrase? =O
what does it really mean?

[[`Y u m m y]]

遷就

It means accomodate or compromise.

are you sure it's "不霜"?

because people generally don't say that
if a girl were to say "我好霜," it's sort of like saying "I'm emotionless"
for example, if a person were to have graduated and was "霜" they wouldn't have a hint of happiness or excitement on their face-- kinda like they're mellowed out


there's no real good reason on why girls shouldn't say it though (guys generally wouldn't say it), but it's not it's a compliment
