Australia has already had one with Kevin Rudd. How long do you think it will be until the United States has a Chief Executive who speaks mandarin?

I tweeted this lesson: Great lesson on Prez Aspirations. Thought of 3 comics from this 1 lesson. 外国人说英文“奥巴马”说错了!太搞笑了!故意吗?

Hi Magnus,
Did I get his name wrong? Dammit. Definitely unintentional if so.

是不是這課 Echo 說她乖?
當我在台灣學習中文的時候我跟我的老師有很多問題.我們得用生子造句子.
我的老師不喜歡我造的句子. 一位老師問我我有沒有心理問題; 問我我父母怪不怪我?
Echo 說的是 “乖” 還是 “怪”? 我的老師說的是 “乖” 還是 “怪”?
如果孩子不聽父母,父母有沒有責任或權利怪孩子?

@careyxxx,
對,我說了“乖”,意思是很聽話,不做讓別人不高興的事情。
“怪”有“責備、埋怨”的意思,如果孩子不乖,父母可以怪孩子不聽話。
