A shorty

I was talking to one of my coworkers today before going home and while I can’t recall the conversation that we had, I found it interesting that they pointed out that I have a set number of replies to a lot things in Chinese. While its not something that I do purposely it is something that I just noticed happens frequently.

According to my coworker my set phrases are:


為什麼嗎why?

我不知道啊
I don't know

對不起阿I am sorry

我明白啦I see/understand.

我很好 I am good.

我非常餓I'm very hungry.

好啦好啦 Ok Ok.

你呢 And you? How about you

我/你是笨蛋 I'm/You're an idiot.

我聽不懂 I don't understand.

There are a few others but at the moment I can’t remember them, so when I do I will edit this with the rest. It seems strange that I have a set come back for a lot of thigns in Chinese, but then again it seems that I follow a lot patterns. Also being that these are the first words that I learned to memorize I think that it is appropriate that they are my “auto-replies”

I am Chububobcat and thanks for reading~
