Hello, Yuqing,

Again, thanks for the corrections you sent. On all those related to tones, I didn't change them per my previous explanations.

For the 2 破音字, I struggled because I've known both your ways and mine used in Taiwan. So, I went to the official materials from the Ministry of Education(MOE) found online, which, honestly, I'm not even sure were actually implemented. Anyway, here's what I did:

12:42(should be 13:42) - 爪 in 爪牙, read as “zhao,” but I heard “zhua”......I changed to "zhua".
14:35 - 角 in 角力, read as “jue,” but I heard “jiao;”.................................I kept "jiao". (Interestingly, I ran into a fight online over this exact term that turned kind of ugly with very strong opinions!)

In addition, I found another error of mine which I corrected at 4:50. That is 輻輳 fu2 cou4. I mis-read previously as fu2 zou4.

The updated version has been uploaded for your review. Many thanks again for working with me.

Section 01 - See PL Notes

Thanks, Tina! I really enjoyed listening to this chapter! Can’t wait to know what happens next :)

Just a few things to take note of:
10:50 - the text says “忙亂”, but I heard “慌亂” in the recording
18:54 - “等不見” was read as “等不到”
22:48 - “白頭” was read as “白發”
26:03 - “歎贊” was read as “贊歎”
26:24 - “董仲舒” was read as “仲董舒”
31:56 - “稍知自愛” was read as “稍加自愛”


And yes, feel free to disregard some of the suggestions. I have absolutely no problem with that! :wink:
Just let me know in your next post, alright?
Once again, thank you for the wonderful work!
Cheers,
Yuqing :D

Hi, Yuqing,

I agree with all your finds and thank you for the detailed listening. Let me target the next one for 'zero error'! By the way, did you run into any character that I pronounced differently from how you would? I'm genuinely interested.

I tried reworking the places you pointed out. Unfortunately, I've been battling a cold for a couple of days. My correction, in my ears, sounds so off from the original recording. I guess I'll have to leave this project alone for a while until I get back to normal!

Apologies for the late reply. School life has been so hectic for me ever since it started a few weeks ago, but I’ll make sure none of the sections will be left unchecked for too long!
Cheers,
Yuqing :D

Wow, Yuqing, you came back real quick! I've made the corrections you identified in Section 03 and it's ready for your review. I need to get my focus back so that you don't need to do so much work!

No worry about the speed. School work is more important. Take care of yourself.

No worries, Tina! We're all doing the best we can.
Many thanks for being so understanding, too! :wink:

Just a really minor issue:
this time, 41:22 - “大道正路” was read as “大路正道”

To be honest, it won't matter if we leave it as it is. It's totally up to you whether you'd like to make one more correction!
Cheers,
Yuqing :D

Yuqing,

I'm thankful that you caught that. I must have some eye-brain-speech coordination issue! I'm glad to be corrected and have uploaded the updated version for you to approve. Thanks a lot.
