I've been studying Chinese since 2006, but I've only made short visits to China, so my progress is slow. I've built some study software to help me learn. I also participate on tatoeba.org.
My other hobby is board game design.

When is the spelling and the pronunciation different? OK, I misunderstood what you were trying to show. Now that you've added more explanation, it makes sense. |

How euphemistic is 傢伙? You might want to move your first paragraph above the quote to make the preview more informative, even for Chinese speakers. |

When is the spelling and the pronunciation different? Personally, @Lars, I found pinyin much easier to use than zhuyin fuhao (bopo mofo). The minor changes in pronunciation took less effort for me to learn than a completely unknown set of symbols. For a learner who didn't already know the Roman alphabet, I could see zhuyin fuhao being easier. |

When is the spelling and the pronunciation different? I would replace your second English pronunciation "she" with "sure". It's not exact, but it's closer. |
