Menu...

I was eating Chinese food in Singapore.

I found the interesting menu....

The sign says "Mini Buddha Jump Over The Wall."



I didn't order it.

You can learn what that is and why it is called that by Google it.

When you go to a restaurant, you order what you want.

You don't order the first one on the menu when you visit for the first time.

In adult edcucation, you teach what the learners want and need.

Just like ordering from the menu....

What do you want/need to learn now?

Your Language....


I visited Lijian city of Yunnan Province of China in July.

The old town (more than 800 years old) was registered as the World Heritage Site in 1997.



The town is known for the tiled roof and the channels.

There are many Naxi people living in this area.

They use the language called Dongba which is a pictographic script.



I wrote Dongba on the guest note book at the restaurant.

It says...

I and My friend
Walk
Talk
Laugh
Happy

What language do you use?

What do you say?
