There is no way to learn a language without memorizing some vocabularies. Aaaaa~~~ O_O To be honest with you, it is easier to memorize those words that you really need to use in real life. Especially when it involves my favourite activity in Taiwan ~~ eating! Yum! To start this vocabulary series, why don't we start with those

It's a well known fact that Taipei has a lot of quirky themed restaurants. And now we are gonna looking into a toilet-bowl theme restaurant. Yes, I am not kidding, you are so gonna eat in the toilet. Don't believe me? The entrance even has a toilet bowl with poop on it. LOL. Based on the taipei543.com's article,

As you probably realise by know, most language schools in Taiwan offer courses by term (i.e. per 3 months). You probably wonder how much time should you spend in mastering the language?
