And hey, thanks.. I never knew how to say yoghurt before… why it didn’t occure to me to just ask for sour dairy… well…
occure = occur (shakes head…)
haha when I was first told that was the word for yogurt, I thought my friend was BSing me.
I think it’s also the word for cheese but I’m not sure.
PS is qing supposed to be third tone? It always sounds like 2 syllables when I hear it.
