    Notice

    Due to inclement weather, rolia.com will be closed until futher notice.

    Don't panic! I am just kidding.

    It is very difficult for us Chinese guys to use right English words in some special situations.

    Take schools as an example. They may be closed if the weather is poor or bad. In the formal school notice, however, the word "inclement" is widely used.

      • My observation: Those who got a high score in GRE test can tell me the meaning of the word "Inlcement", but most of them do not know how to use it. -jabber(jabber); 2001-7-31 (#151646@0)

    • My special english: I call "chicken breast" "chicken chest", I said the vegetables will corrupt. I said put the dish into the pool. My western friend can not say why I am wrong. -guest:lilyba; 2001-7-31 (#151297@0)
      • When I first came here, I asked the waitress for a "Pipe" in stead of "Straw" for the water. Typical Chingilish. -wonton_soup(Wonton Soup); 2001-7-31 (#151334@0)
