New words

Apparently the spoken words in Chinese for "I would like to order a plate of dumplings" and "How much does it cost to sleep with you" are exactly the same except for the intonation. Of course, I'm afraid to say this anymore, for fear of being misunderstood. Randy says that context will forgive any errors in my intonation, because it is highly unlikely that anyone would think I would be asking that of a waitress in a dumpling house, nor will I wander into a chicken bar looking for dumplings.
