I read (or imagined?) a rumor that Medium.com does not curate articles that aren’t metered to earn money for Medium.com. (Forgot where I read that.)
In any case, I realize I may be hurting Medium.com by making my articles free rather than have them pay Medium.com via readership.
I’ll be using Twitter to continue making my articles free to read, while getting Medium.com paid by readers who don’t bother to go to my Twitter to obtain Friend Links.
The reason I write is to share knowledge and learning. Helping Medium.com …

Chinese pronunciation is melodious. Chris Tucker probably made it action-packed as well!
(This article has been converted into a course at this Facebook group.)
I will always always enjoy Chris Tucker! But if you want to learn Chinese pronunciation, you have to know that the vowel ‘ou’ when paired with ‘y’ does not sound like “you” in English; the Chinese pronunciation of “you” is actually closer to English “yo!” (as in “hi there!”). But it makes for great comedy, so loosen up before we dive into learning Chinese pronunciation! …
