              • From my point of view, the core values of capitalism are fair competition and free market. I rarely read English magazines because Im still working on my listening and speaking -davidsz08(我来劲了); 2014-7-6 (#8861257@0)

                  • A nice long list -geekcode(文心雕码); 2014-7-6 {83} (#8861707@0)

      • I am really curious about how you could find out the expression of ‘爱慕虚荣’ in English. Have you thought in English naturally ever since you started to pick up the foreign language? -softface(探长); 2014-7-6 (#8861439@0)
        • 最近发现9岁儿子虚荣心很强，爱表现，输不起，准备严肃帮助他dress this issue, 苦于找不到合适的词，for personality, vanity好像有虚伪的意思 -davidsz08(我来劲了); 2014-7-7 (#8862090@0)

            Address is a better word.
          • Well, I believe you are able to help him improve himself without using that specific word. Talking to your own kid is a lot easier. Some simple words can express the same meaning and pass your ideas through. -sailor(Ocean & Mountain); 2014-7-7 (#8862506@0)
