thx benny for your reply again, but i am curious as to why ‘gei3 hui2’ doesnt make sense.. i mean if i wanna say ‘call back’, i would say ‘da3 hui2’ right? if i wanna say ‘please on back the tv’, i would say “qing3 kai1 hui2 dian4 shi4” ya? if my sentences above are right then ‘give back’ should be ‘gei3 hui2’ ? sorry, i am abit confused on the usage of hui2 here..hope you can help me to clear this up.. thanks
