Should the temporal indicators be in a certain order? 午饭 is not a temporal indicator, it's an object of the verb 吃. |

pronunciation of 人 - regional or gender differences? This. Also, southern accents, which err away from retroflexing, are (at least in Beijing) considered more effeminate. |

Meaning of 一人付一半 in this sentence is there a difference between 一人 and 个人 in this context? Are they interchangeable? (Ignoring the 我们俩 part which would make 个人 confusing). |

Pinyin tones pronunciation cheat sheet You also need āng, ān, āi, uāi, etc. And aspiration (or not) of the consonant can change the way the vowel sounds. |
