“kan dian ying ba?” means “want to see movie?”. | |

2007-07-26 / 09:30PM | | I think that “Mei you” also means “no”. For example: wo mei you ni gao", means “I’m no taller than you”.
It’s just my understanding. Benny, please check it. Thx! | |

2007-07-27 / 02:21PM | | Thanks,Tess Lynnette ! Maybe you are right.
“no more than” and “not more than” are quite similar. Yes, maybe I made a mistake. | |
