hi all,


from what I know, the hanyu pinyin for 宝宝 is bao(3) bao(3), dictionary will include bao(3) . bao (3), the " . " denote this words can be pronounced as "轻声” for the second "宝"

hope the above clarify your doubt.

Hi there,


sorry for the interruption here! seeing a few of you talking about Chinese lesson and asking for recommendation of tutor, hence dropping a few lines here.

fyi, I am a full time Chinese language tutor with more than 20 yrs of experience. I am keen to help PSLE students prepare for their national exam. The centre which I worked at is at Bishan and Hougang. it will be a small group lesson with 6 students max.

Any interested parents, can PM me to enquire as I am not sure if I am allow to post this content under this thread.

Thank you!

Hi all, would like to know regarding MT compo, what would happened if we've chosen to write option (2) but filled in (1) instead? :sad:

not too sure if any changes to it, it happened to one of my ex students few years ago. I presumed there isn't going to be a serious problem as he still go on to ace in Chinese. should there be a heavy penalization for it, then I guess he can't get an A as Chinese is his weakest subject.

hi all,

hi there,


just to share my experience with the herbal hair treatment to cover white hair. The effect is I can’t do rebonding after going for such treatment. there was once I went to salon to do rebonding and my hair is not reacting well to the chemical and having to "steam " it for longer than required time, it is still not soften and in short, after rebonding done, no one can tell I had just rebond my hair. then the hair stylist told me it is due to the herbal treatment done elsewhere. as such, I wasted my money spend on rebonding.

Hence if you are those into rebonding hair, you may not be able to do so and achieved desire result should you go ahead with herbal treatment.

Hi there,


you are welcome!

fyi, I am asking my students to prepare themselves for the following topics for those who has not sit for their oral:

1) cyberbully
2) how advancement in technology affect the interpersonal relationship
3) elderly issue eg how to improve their life, how to reach out to them regarding govt's policy affecting them, your view on those elderly who need to work at their age etc
4) online scam
5) haze issue
6) insufficient sleep for the schooling kids
7) returning of tray after food
cosmetic surgery/schooling girl put on make up
9) buying medicine eg slimming pill online or from unknown source
10) how smart phone affect us ( \"walking zombie\")

maybe you want to ask your kids to think through these topics and come up with some points as well

after reading what u have written this morning, I decided not to go anymore since there is only one publisher and hence can imagine how limited the Chinese assessment books is. I went to the health exhibit instead
