It’s a very good question, George! I’m glad to see you have things in your stash!

At this stage, our website is Alpha version, which means some contents, features and functions are not fully revealed. What you want, like taking exam, grade to next belt and making your iland grow will be realized on our Beta version, which we scheduled to launch at the end of Nov. So stay with us, keep learning, when the Beta version is done, you would be already ready for the grade!!

If I want to say “I like you”, then it’s “wo xi huan ni”? What about “I want you”? It would be “Wo yao ni” correct?

because “shen me” is already a question which means “what” so you don’t need to put “ma” at the end of the sentence.. _
