twangy Posted February 21, 2007 at 01:35 PM Report Posted February 21, 2007 at 01:35 PM Hello! I am doing my MA thesis at the University of Tampere on cross-cultural politeness and for my research I would like to present this short survey to Chinese people. Please go to the link (http://www.questionpro.com/akira/TakeSurvey?id=633553) and take the anonymous survey, it will not take more than a few minutes. By doing this quick survey you will help me a lot! If you have technical problems viewing the survey page, the questions can also be found at (http://www.mediafire.com/?9txynxzzeqm) or as always with any problems or questions, you can contact me by email at mikko.setala@uta.fi. Thanks for the ! Have a great day! best regards, Mikko Setälä Quote

In what way? Orignal Translation 礼貌在家比在单位怎么样? Could it be translate into 礼貌在家里和在职场是否有不同的表现?具体有何不同之处? Q2: Is politeness different towards strangers than friends and relatives? In what way? Shēng rén hé qīnyǒu bǐ lǐmào shì zěnmeyàng de? 生人和亲友比礼貌是怎么样的? i guess it is better to say对于生人的礼貌礼节与对亲友的礼貌礼节是否不同?具体有何不同之处? Q3: Is politeness different towards young people than old people?

twangy Posted February 22, 2007 at 10:44 AM Author Report Posted February 22, 2007 at 10:44 AM Thanks for the help...and the tips! I'll try those as well. The original ones were proofread by my Chinese teacher, but I can see the logic in yours as well. Every new phrase I can pick up helps! Quote
