Hi there, I just scored 88% on my first test, but the three questions I got wrong all had errors - either in the question or in the answer: A. Translate the 'zai' in zaijian. The answer is given as 'meet' , so the question should have been 'Translate the 'jian' in 'zaijian'' B. If a cup of tea costs 3 yuan, how much do 3 cups cost? The given answer is fifteen!!!!!!!!!!!!! C. Translate 'woyehenhao'. The wrong answer is given. so please give me my 100% Charlie

Well, here I am replying to my own post: I've tried several more quizzes and found many more errors. I like the audio material, and the presentation of the lessons is good, but I think the editing of the quizzes is very disappointing. Charlie

I found the same problems Charlie and ddddyyyy found. The only other comment I would make is isn't "jian" more accurately translated as "see", as in "kan jian" or "jian dao"?

Hi there, thank you for all your comments. I apologize for the inconvenience. We are currently going through the quizzes to make sure they are all correct. The quiz that you mentioned has been fixed. You can take the quiz as many times as you wish. Simply reset the quiz and start again. Once again, I apologize for the trouble.

A related point, it'd be good if there were tone markings in the quizzes as well as in the transcripts.

Hi there, thanks for your comment. I will pass that on to the Chinese team. There are tone marks in the transcripts, please let me know if you have trouble viewing them. Thanks
