산가지는 도깨비의 꿈을 꾼다 (Dreaming of the Dokkaebi) is the best manhwa ive read in a while ngl

chap15
优秀=excellent, outstanding

the way lang junxia keeps dipping in and out...next time drop some pizza or smth

i was looking through the evolution of the spoken chinese language through diff time periods, and the ancient chinese sounded very differently from the modern day mandarin which begs the question how the fuck transmigrators manage the language problem?? i guess in most novels that problem doesnt even come up bcs they just magically can. but it would be interesting as a plot twist to make it more realistic.

from chap 11
晚上我们家有聚餐，看结束了来不来得及把。
V + 得及 / 不及 = manage to do (or fail) something in time

yeah after rainbow bridge this is a piece of cake. i should have picked smth from 750w.

finished chap 2
they are long, yes, but divided into sub chapters for u to take a breather.
although the topic is not close to my heart, i find reading it an enjoyable experience bcs its written so engagingly in a clear and accessible language. this chap gets it.

fuck that centipede is ridic overpowered but ok we like that

chap11
连累=to be implicated

ch6
都给我出去
this is an interesting expression that literally means 'all - give me - get out' but actually means all of u get out! 给我 marks an order.

catching up on my nonfiction reads td

"I was so intent on bringing you here to broaden your horizons that i forgot to ask - can you actually get your dick up?"

do u even have to ask? bro is made of wood.

do i even remember anything at this point idk...i mean besides wudu's chiseled abs.

chap 4
this one is a good choice. very short chappies and not a lot of dialogue. everyday spoken chinese. ill be gnawing on it one or two chapters a day for now.

its smooch o'clock!

For instance, berries and other fruits are usually swollen ovaries, designed to be eaten and later defecated as a means to transport and plant seeds.

now there is an image.

anyone else watching a knight of the seven kingdoms? i didnt care much for GoT but this is pretty good. the kinda low stakes fantasy that i tend to enjoy.

apparently this novel features dual cultivation? mheheheh lets see it!!

fuck it im starting this in chinese. its marked as newcomer on heavenly so i should be good...in theory...right? right?????

both the cover and inner art are so pretty.

i feel like this is the first xianxia i read that actually goes into artifact making. i love this shit.

this is fun. but some descriptions make me really scratch my head.
case in point, his voice was voice was like a clear echo in an ancient desert...
echoes in a desert?? what???

我从来没走过这么黑的路，
但是不管怎么样，能走就是好的，
什么都不做只会让自己更害怕，
而且我一停下来就会乱想。

once in a while i run across one of those sentences that really stumps me even thou i know all the words. ofc once i run it through a translator it all makes sense. anyway, when i see smth like this i hanker down and explore every single thing about it that puzzles me so it wont puzzle me again.
