華文書籍簡介Mandarin Books - an Introduction

因為自己常念的作品多半是翻譯文學所以想了好一陣子，不知道是否該為學習華文的學習者寫寫華語書籍的介紹，不過因為非華語學習者也可以看看書評決定是否支持一下出版者。因此今天就索性來寫個簡介吧！如果你喜歡這樣討論書籍的文章歡迎在下面留言讓我知道喔😁

I know the difficulties of picking a book from the foreign languages you are learning. I know how hard it is to select the ones that are suitable for the different levels of language learners. Since it is about books in Mandrin, I will not be using a lot of English in this piece. I apologize for the inconvenience. If you enjoy these kind of topics and would like to know more about the books I read please comment to let me know. Thank you.

How to pack for a trip to Taiwan in Winter and Spring

Packing for a Winter or Spring (November to May) trip to Taiwan is much the same as packing for summer. Check out my last blog on how to pack and what to expect . But there are still a few things to keep in mind. Though some of the public indoor spaces may have heating systems, but most of the places aren't.  This would be tricky if you're packing. How much should you pack would depend on which parts of the island you're going to visit. For Northern parts of the island (that is Yilan and north of Taichung) Expect it to rain or, at least, drizzle. For hotels, most of them have heating systems. Hostels and bed and breakfast, on the other hand, might depend on the owner. It is, after all, a subtropical island. Therefore, sweaters, turtlenecks, or hoodies may be a good idea to pack for this time of the year.  It can be windy, so coats might come in handy. If the weather reports say it would be 10 to 12 Celsius out (that would be 50 -53 Fahrenheit), gloves and scar

4 Songs that Remind Us of Taiwan

What Song Would Best Represent Taiwan? For most Taiwanese, I think they would say one of the following. 望春風  Bāng Chhun-hong 四季紅  Sù-kùi-âng 雨夜花  The Torment of a Flower 月夜愁 Gua̍t-iā Tshiû Or as we call it "四月望雨", for short. The songs are written in the 1930s. They are still loved by many Taiwanese, even 'till these days. Initially, they are songs to be sung, yet as time went on many classical musicians in Taiwan rearranged them. They are now performed even at classical concerts in Taiwan. Although the original arrangements are now in the public domain, the lyrics are still protected by intellectual property rights. As a kid, I learned some of the words in my native tongue from singing the song  Bāng Chhun-hong .   For many Taiwanese w hen we go to school, we learn at least one of these songs on recorders.  Whenever we travel by flying Eva Air, they would play  Bāng Chhun-hong as we land in Taiwan.  Therefore, it is not an  exaggeration when I say that the

How to pack for a trip to Taiwan and what to expect

Nice seeing you again! The weather in Taiwan is rather unpredictable due to geological reasons. Sometimes it would drizzle a bit, other times the rain may pour on for hours or even days. Therefore, it would be safe to pack an umbrella or a raincoat before your departure. Since Taiwan is a subtropical island, there are mosquitoes. Their activities peak during the summer time (roughly around June to September), so be sure to pack light colored clothes, preferably white, during summer. For people who love to hike, be sure to pack a pair of pants (or trousers). Summer time is also the typhoon season, so be sure to check the weather reports. Taiwan is humid and hot during summer and fall. It is vital to stay hydrated and protect yourselves from the sun. This is especially true for the Southern parts, though not as humid as the Northern parts of the island. So pack yourselves a bottle and sunscreen/ sunblock of your choice! At public places, train stations and libraries, you can refill your
