High Tech and Hot Pot

Languages : en
Pages : 229
Book Description
An award-winning writer reveals a changing China—one conversation and adventure at a time. When Stephan Orth lands in China, he knows it’s his last visit, having lied about his job as a journalist to get into the country. So, he makes the most of it, couch-surfing with locals instead of hitting the nearest hotel. Starting in Macau—a former Portuguese colony and now gambler’s paradise—Orth takes on the world’s biggest casino. Next, he visits Shenzen, where more than 200 million sidewalk cameras monitor citizens who win and lose points on Sesame Credit, an app that sends data to Alibaba—and to the government. As his adventure continues, Orth encounters a bewildering mix of new tech and old traditions. Over a steaming bowl of hot pot, he learns ancient chopstick etiquette from a policewoman who later demos the facial recognition app she could use to detain him. He eats dog meat as a guest of honor one day—and finds himself censored on live TV the next. He even seriously considers joining an outlawed sect. Self-deprecatingly funny, compassionate, and observant, High Tech and Hot Pot is a formidable addition to a well-loved series, and offers a timely travelogue of an enigmatic country poised to become the world’s next superpower.

You can start at any chapter and dive directly into the topics that interest you the most. Part 2 - Basic English-Finnish dictionary: The index in the second half of the book can be used as a basic Finnish dictionary to look up words you have learned but can't remember or learn new words you need.

The Finnish dictionaries in part two and three can be used whenever needed to look up words you hear on the street, English words you want to know the Finnish translation for or simply to learn some new words. Some final thoughts: Vocabulary books have been around for centuries and as with so many things that have been around for some time, they are not very fashionable and a bit boring, but they usually work very well. Together with the basic Finnish dictionary parts, this vocabulary book is a great resource to support you throughout the process of learning Finnish and comes in particularly handy at times when there is no internet to look up words and phrases.
