@ 30524 My New MP3 Player
A: 你買新的MP3了？挺好看的嘛＇
Nˇı maˇi x¯ın de MPsa¯ n le? Tˇıng haˇoka`n de ma!
Did you buy a new MP3 player? It’s pretty nice looking!
B: 昨天剛買的。好像還蠻好用的。
Zuo´tia¯ n ga¯ ng maˇi de. Haˇoxia`ng ha´i ma´n haˇoyo`ng de.
I just bought it yesterday. It seems like it’s pretty easy to use.
A: 真的？容量多大啊？
Zhe¯ nde? Ro´nglia`ng duo¯
da` a?
Really? What’s the capacity?
B: 3G。聽說可以存好幾百首歌。也可以當移動硬
盤用。

3 gigs. I was told that it can hold several hundred songs. It can also be used as a portable hard drive.
A: 可以聽播客嗎？
Keˇyˇı t¯ıng bo¯ ke` ma?
Can you listen to podcasts?
B: 當然咯。我已經下載了好幾個了。對了，還可
以聽廣播呢。

Of course. I’ve already downloaded quite a few. Oh right, you can also listen to the radio.
A: 不錯嘛。哪裡出的呀？

Not bad. Where is it made?
B: 國產的。之前我看了好幾個牌子，最後還是覺
得這個最好。

ha´ishi jue´de zhe`ge zu`ı haˇo.
It’s domestic. Before, I looked at quite a few brands. In the end, I felt that this one was the best.
A: 不過，我一直覺得MP3質量不高。以前我也有
一個，結果才用了幾個月就壞了。

But, I have always felt that the quality of MP3 players is not that good. Before, I had one too–I only used it for a few months and it broke.
B: 大概是你買的牌子不好吧。大一點的牌子應該
不會這樣。

It was probably because it was a bad brand. A more fa- mous brand shouldn’t be like that.
A: 反正，我不會再買。

Anyway, I won’t buy one again.
