You might have realized that this “Quote of the day” section has become a large part of my website’s content. While I was picking up Chinese again in my late 30s after dropping it in my late 20s, I decided that the best way to study is to translate some quotes that I encountered into my mother tongue and English on the go.
These quotes may be funny or related to self-help. What’s better than being a better version of you while studying? Have fun with quotes in 3 languages. Check back here everyday for a new quote. Enjoy learning Vietnamese, Chinese, and English.

🌧️🍷🌸 Last night in light rain and gusty wind My sound sleep dispelled not the lingering effect of wine. I try to ask her who rolls up the screens. “The haitang tree,” she says, “is still the same.” But ah, do you know it, Do you know it? The green may be thriving, the red … Read more
