Strawberries513 Posted June 19, 2007 at 06:19 PM Report Posted June 19, 2007 at 06:19 PM I have searched and searched, and I can not figure out the best way to say: "If I speak incorrectly, please correct me" in the sense of someone correcting my Chinese. Thank you!! Quote
Shadowdh Posted June 19, 2007 at 06:33 PM Report Posted June 19, 2007 at 06:33 PM Maybe 如果我说不对请你 纠正我 but that could be really wrong... (so could someone please correct me ) Quote
HashiriKata Posted June 19, 2007 at 07:41 PM Report Posted June 19, 2007 at 07:41 PM but that could be really wrong... (so could someone please correct me ) Ok, let me try: 如果我说不对请你 纠正我 => 如果我汉语说得不对，请 给我纠正纠正！ But that could be wrong... (so could someone please correct me? ) Quote

Lu Posted June 21, 2007 at 07:11 AM Report Posted June 21, 2007 at 07:11 AM 如果我说错了请告诉我.Something with 糾正 is better I think.Nevermind, just try them out, people will get the message and if the sentence is wrong you'll find out soon enough! :-) Quote

muyongshi Posted June 26, 2007 at 06:58 AM Report Posted June 26, 2007 at 06:58 AM So this is a thread where we are willing to be corrected huh? Okay, I'll join in. 如果我是个笨蛋的老外，请你告诉我。 Quote
HashiriKata Posted June 26, 2007 at 08:07 AM Report Posted June 26, 2007 at 08:07 AM So this is a thread where we are willing to be corrected huh? Okay' date=' I'll join in.如果我是个笨蛋的老外，请你告诉我。 [/quote']And I'm happy to oblige: 1. Structurally, I'd prefer the sentence without 你: 如果我是个笨蛋的老外，请告诉我。 2. Logically, I'd put it this way: 如果我是个笨蛋， 你说什么也没用。 Quote
muyongshi Posted June 26, 2007 at 08:12 AM Report Posted June 26, 2007 at 08:12 AM Point well taken. Quote
ChineseSpeaker Posted June 27, 2007 at 11:11 AM Report Posted June 27, 2007 at 11:11 AM I am a native Chinese speaker. I think it is better translated into: 说得不对的地方，请多指正. or 如果我有什么地方讲得不对，请多这正. Quote
