Sir,

My sincere apologies ... right you are and yes, it 
was from the old Kung Fu series ... I've just come to 
a point where I don't (automatically) think that people
are old enough to know what I speak of.

Very good ... Chinese it then ... 


hen gaoxing renshi nǐ !!. 


Kind Regards

Well, I thought your sentences were in reference to
the previous post that mentioned 'grasshopper'; that's
an allusion to the Kung Fu series, where the lead was
a half-Chinese man raised in a Chinese temple.

So I replied in English and Japanese, saying, basically,
"I think you meant to say it Chinese, right?"

Ah yes. My wife and I slaughter many languages.

:-)
