thanks benny for clearing things up.. uh i guess im just so eager to read characters… because i just bought a cellphone from china and the manual is in chinese.. i tried reading it… theres this first few characters xing neng.. which means temper/sex and ability respectively… that’s it… when combined they should mean something… another is zai zai… uhm.. literally in english it means be in be in.. right? so if you could be be in here or be in there i guess zai zai means everywhere.. just a guess… whew… im so thirsty for mandarin education… sorry for the trouble..

Leo, I’m glad to see that you are so eager to learn chiness:)
xing means sex, neng means can, but xing neng means performance or function

As for “zai zai” I’ve never heard of this word, can you give me more details?

Thank u
