Finally...

Done reading this!!


Borrowed from Ah Wei for about... 2 months??!
Haha, damn slow reader kia~ =P

A really interesting non-fiction book though.
It talks on guides to improve relationships through communication,
not only towards bf/gf but also friends and family~

It excites me whenever it tells some situations between the Martians and Venusians!
...As they really did happened between my eldest brother and his girlfriend~
And the ways they communicate are really disgusting which gave me goosebumps everytime they do it... (=.=")

Anyway, Venusians!
We have to speak up if we want something!
But in a direct and correct way!
Never demand and reprimand too much!
Stop being sarcastic!
Talk less!

what else...
oh.

Martians!
Just shut up and listen to Venusians then give them hug and kisses. Done. =)

Nah, ain't that short.
Ain't summarising everything.
C'mon la! 286 pages! Get a book yourself and read it! XP

This book is really good. Trust me.

PS: Thanks Wei! I'm writing you a "love letter"~ haha =)

BTW!! They said no "can" and "could" but "will" and "would",
so what word can we use in cantonese??!

[EG: Would you please help me throw the rubbish?
Ho yee pong ngo tiao lap sap mou?]

WTF...

Isn't "would" and "could" the same in cantonese...
So it doesn't play a role in Chinese men's lives~ Haha XD

Anyone who can answer me, do give me comments~ TQ

would or could? i think depends on the answer, not the question.

hmm.. how would i say it..

using "can" & "could"
eg: Could you throw e rubbish?
Sounds like questioning e person whether he has e ability to do it or not. "of course i can throw the rubbish, y r u questioning me dat way? u r belittling me" said by men.

using "will" & "would"
eg: Would you do...?
Is the fella willing to do for u? u know he has e ability to do it.

men r kinda.. egoistic? dey can do it, it's juz e matter of willing to do or not. so v ladies sumtimes couldnt differentiate bet. "could" and "would" as Venusians thought that "could" sounds more polite and "would" sounds demanding, vice versa for Martians. it's e way of asking dat's important.
...So as the author have said.
