| 哦！现在我可以共享了，不知道为什么。 | Ó! Xiànzài wǒ kěyǐ gòngxiǎngle, bù zhīdào wèishéme. | Oh! Now I can share, I don’t know why. | |
| 我每次整理生词都要花费十五分钟左右，但是有六本书，每本书25课，总体看这是一个很大的工作量，所以我有时候会停滞。 | Wǒ měi cì zhěnglǐ shēngcí dōu yào huāfèi shíwǔ fēnzhōng zuǒyòu, dànshì yǒu liù běn shū, měi běn shū 25 kè, zǒngtǐ kàn zhè shì yīgè hěn dà de gōngzuò liàng, suǒyǐ wǒ yǒu shíhòu huì tíngzhì. | It takes me about fifteen minutes to sort through the vocabulary each time, but with six books and twenty-five lessons per book, it’s a lot of work overall, so I sometimes stall. | |
