F2F Class Notes (Sonia)[S]

In your opinion, what is the difference between Shanghainese and Fujianese people?

Grammar

my family are live in

my family lives in (try not to add are after every plural noun)

besides your friends/family, what do you like about these cities?

In my opinion, nice people is are the most important for me. Secondly, because I born in south east of China our major food is seafood. I like it very much we often eat lighter food  I don’t like spicy food, I like sweet food but I think the Shanghainese food is too sweet, but I can accept them,it because I  have lived in Shanghai for six years. Thirdly, I think Xiamen and Shanghai are cleaner than other some places. If I choose one place to live maybe I will choose Xiamen because Xiamen is near the sea. I don’t like some Shanghainese, I have been living here for many years and I saw some bad things. But I think if you are friendly then other people will be friendly to you.
