The strangest thing is that they can turn the same number into different words, such as two and two, which obviously mean the same thing, but cannot be used in the same context.

Summary. The unique taste of foreigners, the Chinese voice and food culture.

Is there anything that surprises you about foreigners? Or what characteristics of the Chinese usually make foreigners feast.

The unique taste of foreigners, the Chinese voice and food culture.

Can you elaborate on that?

1. Due to China's vast territory and vast land, there are differences in climate, products, and customs in various places, and many flavors have been formed in the diet for a long time. China has always had the saying of "south rice and north face", and the taste is divided into "sweet in the south, salty in the north, sour in the east and spicy in the west", mainly four major flavors of Bashu, Qilu, Huaiyang, and Guangdong and Fujian. 2. The four seasons are different, and eating according to the seasons is another major feature of Chinese cooking.

Since ancient times, China has been seasoning and garnish according to seasonal changes, with a mellow flavor in winter and a light and cool summer flavor; In winter, it is stewed and simmered, and in summer, it is cold and frozen. 3. Pay attention to aesthetics, Chinese cooking is not only exquisite, but also has the tradition of paying attention to the beauty of dishes, paying attention to the harmony of color, aroma, taste, shape and utensils of food. The expression of the beauty of the dish is multifaceted, whether it is a carrot or a cabbage heart, you can carve out the various search and shape of the shape, unique, to achieve the harmony and unity of color, fragrance, taste, shape and beauty, and give people a special enjoyment of a high degree of spiritual and material unity.

Pay attention to taste, Zhongfeng Split Country Cooking has paid attention to taste and taste very early, not only has strict requirements for the color, fragrance and taste of meals and snacks, but also has a silver accompanying and closed requirements for their naming, the way of taste, the rhythm of meals, and the interspersing of entertainment.

The third thing is that when we communicate, it always makes me laugh. Her Chinese level is not very high, so when we communicate, a lot of interesting things will happen, coupled with the strength of our Northeast dialect, sometimes I pop up a few Northeast dialects from time to time, such as Polengaika bald skin, she is very "confused".

When I first started eating hot pot, I grabbed it with my hands, I used Chinese to communicate with people from other countries, foreigners listened with a confused face, and my tongue was stuck when I licked a telephone pole in the winter in Tohoku.

It's fun to eat with foreigners, they don't know how to use Chinese chopsticks, they can't pick up the food, and they can't send it to their mouths, and it's especially interesting to watch the food not eat.

Once, when my classmates and I went to the English corner and met a foreign student, we went up to talk to him, and as a result, he looked at us innocently and said in Chinese: Excuse me, can you say it again? a

When they don't understand the popcorn machine, they think it's a "**", especially after hearing the sound of popcorn "**", they feel that this thing is a "**". But after understanding what this thing is for, they exclaimed: Amazing!

Like a foreigner who came to China to travel before, he felt that this food was not to be eaten before eating "Mao Xuewang", but after tasting it, he was shocked and felt as if he had "opened the door to a new world", and he was so excited that he even drank the soup base of "Mao Xuewang".

Fun fact about my foreigner friend: This Englishman is not ordinary. I went to Uganda to teach for two years.

He is used to being in a bitter place, so he can handle the strange food in China. Take it to eat hot pot, and you can eat it without changing the color! Pig!

Brain! He also said, "The taste is very good, like tofu" "You, a Londoner, have a Chongqing stomach, and you can eat offal more than Chinese, which is enough ......."The deepest impression is that once I took him to eat rice balls, and he asked me very seriously whether the filling inside was injected with a syringe, and there was no seal on the outside...

A colleague of mine is a foreigner, and he goes clubbing in Sanlitun every night after work and plays a drummer in a band, and I think that's his serious job. As a result, there is always malaise and lethargy during the day. Every time we asked him for a job, he woke up from a hangover!

In the past, when I was still in China, I often went to the back door to masturbate after self-study. The girls who masturbate alone have a sad little belly. The two black little brothers in front of me that day chose a lot of food and kept telling the kebab brothers:

no spicy！no spicy！The skewer brother hummed, and at first glance, he knew that he didn't understand.

He stretched his neck and asked, "What are you talking about?" I said:

Don't chili. The little brothers were blessed to the soul, stood on the edge of the skewers, and began to practice speaking seriously: no chili, no chili, no chili ......

A certain little brother, an American. In the preparatory course of Chinese as a foreign language at Nanjing Normal University, the senior sister who helped him practice Chinese was a student in the direction of linguistics, and the younger brother was talented and very diligent, and soon became proficient in Nanjing dialect ......One day, the little brother and the senior sister crossed the street, and an aunt ran a red light and scratched two people, and the little brother was very American-style "hey!" After a while, I didn't expect the aunt to stop the car and start to train him, and her mouth was not clean.

The little brother became popular, and he also followed the example of the aunt and crossed his waist and began to scold him fluently in Nanjing. Those who are familiar with Nanjing dialect may know ......The lethality of Nanjing dialect ......Hmmm......This ......Ah......Senior sister, a native of Nanjing, was fascinated by it, and dragged the little brother away when the battle situation was inseparable......The little brother asked her very gentlemanly afterwards if she was injured, but unfortunately because of the Nanjing dialect throughout the conversation, a lot of romantic atmosphere was lost.

Go to Sichuan to see the panda ......Wearing a panda jumpsuit, the kind with a tail, it's particularly cute. That's the premise. Road idiot attributes, turned around and walked to a no-man's corner, and then sat on the ground with his back to the road and thought about life.

Then I sat for about three or four minutes, and I heard a lot of English, but I only heard Panda and the others did not understand. Because the speed of speech is too fast, but then the brain should be ecstatic to see the giant panda? Thinking it was nothing to do, I continued to knead the grass, and then, suddenly, a hand reached out to my head, rubbed it, rubbed it twice, rubbed it three times, and rubbed it three times......Then I turned my head in confusion and saw three foreign guys with confused faces ......And then?

We looked at each other for three seconds, and the three little brothers looked at each other and then ran ......awayLeave me to continue thinking about life.

There is never a speed limit on the first-class highway for foreigners, and cars driving on it can drive very fast, even up to 150 or 60 miles.

As a Chinese, the strangest thing I encounter in a foreign country is that my own private belongings suddenly disappear, and then I can't find a trace.

I think the strangest thing I encountered in a foreign country is the Russian delivery guy, who walks very slowly.

The strangest thing I met in a foreign country was that a person made a gesture to me, but I didn't know what he was trying to say, so I thought it was not good, and I didn't linger long, and quickly walked away.

I went out to eat with an Iranian customer, three Muslims, the dish suddenly came with a chili fried minced pork, I was embarrassed, the customer was about to scoop the minced pork, I quickly stopped a strong apology, but the customer said that he ordered this dish, and wanted to taste the pork, I was confused.

My classmate alec, a tall white man, was crazy about Chinese kung fu when he was twenty years old, so he went to Henan to go to Shaolin Temple to become a monk to learn kung fu, but the monk did not become a monk, and was fooled into a certain Songshan martial arts school, closed for a month, in pain, and then finally escaped, and told us that he still loves China very much, but he dare not come again.

In a scenic spot, a foreigner, the family of four asked me to help them take pictures, it was very strange at the time because there seemed to be nothing to shoot here, but friendly as I took the camera, and then I saw that their family was very happy to stand next to the glass lion trash can and pose.

The French brother followed me to learn Chinese, and one day when I was chatting with him, I sent a hehe, 23333, and he asked me what I meant. I just mean to praise you for being super funny. I met with him with my Chinese friend tonight, and after my friend finished speaking, he spoke clearly and standardly, "Hehe, twenty-three thousand three hundred and thirty-three."

The audience was lonely again.

Once when I took a foreign friend to eat rice balls, he asked me very seriously whether the filling inside was injected with a syringe, and there was no seal on the outside.

The American stupid roe deer brother (if he knew Chinese, he would definitely kill me) suddenly sat up straight while eating lunch, with a serious expression, and asked me a question, can you teach me to? (He just came back from the squatting pit with a confused face).

Go to the moon, build high-speed rail, build airplanes.

Highway construction, bridge construction, etc.

The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, as well as Zhan Tianyou's Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway and many other things.

Qinghai-Tibet Railway.

Paul Soroux of the United States wrote in the book "Traveling in China":"With the Kunlun Mountains, the railway will never reach Lhasa. "Most of the world-class railway track construction engineers who came to China to inspect the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the Inter-Alpine Railway shook their heads and said that with the Tanggula Mountains, the railway will never be built in Lhasa!

In 2013, I was fortunate enough to embark on this train to Lhasa, and personally felt the 44-hour hard seat green train from Beijing West Railway Station through 550 kilometers of permafrost, 960 kilometers above 4000 meters above sea level, the highest point of 5072 meters, through Hoh Xili, Sanjiangyuan, Qiangtang and other national nature reserves, Tibetan antelope Tibetan wild ass ran side by side with the train, the train passed at the foot of the highest peak at the eastern end of Kama Kunlun Yuzhu (6178m), Looking at the distant Nianqing Tanggula Mountain, it is guarded by the daughter of the gods, Namco, which is known as the third pole by the world. The conductor couldn't help but burst into tears when he broadcast the martyrs who died in the construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway behind the Tanggula Mountain Monument, and suddenly his body was cold, imagining that the great bodies of his fathers were standing in the deserted Hoh Xili Gobi, building something that others thought was impossible, the flag was fluttering, and they were building. The volunteers who saw our train coming and saluted us in the Hoh Xi Reserve, and the Qinghai-Tibet railway workers who were maintaining the safety of the railway, were impossible for foreigners to do.

To be honest, I used to have reservations about China's construction of Made in China, but when I got on the train, when the train crossed Qinghai Lake, headed for the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and circled to rise the plateau with all my might, I felt that China has a large number of excellent builders, insisting on everyone's doubts and what others think is impossible, and doing things that make future generations proud to be forever after seeing it. It has created a number of world's best: the highest railway station, the highest paving base, the longest plateau permafrost tunnel, the highest alpine permafrost tunnel, the longest alpine railway bridge, the longest highland railway, the highest altitude plateau railway, the highest speed of the almafrost railway, and the longest permafrost mileage.

There are no Saturdays or Sundays, and working more than 10 hours a day and working overtime is unimaginable for foreigners. Do Chinese not worship without faith, do not worship?

Since the end of World War II, more than one billion people around the world have been lifted out of poverty and rich.

Of course it's Asian squatting! A lot of foreigners don't.

Coordinates UK, real people and real stories. Last week a friend of mine invited a Belgian guy to his house for dinner, the kind of daily gathering where a lot of people cook together. The little brother asked if there are still many people in China who wear Lei Feng hats...

My friend looked at her classmates and said no, we all wear everything in our hometown, young people have their own style of dressing, and then they started to popularize taobao and alipay

Then let's talk about Alipay

Including phone bills, water, electricity, gas bills, and even personal income tax can be paid through Alipay.

Even the owner of a grocery store and snack bar on the street can use Alipay to complete transactions with customers.

There is basically no cash in your life. Because the transfer can be completed in an instant, even if you suddenly want to pay in cash, you can ask passers-by for help, and then immediately transfer the money to passers-by through Alipay.

The little brother was dumbfounded and muttered a wow you guys live in the future!

In most areas, takeaways can be delivered within half an hour.
