Hi,

A friend kept passing me mandarin phrases which I was able to figure out pretty quickly (they were very short, and looking up the individual words to put it together wasn't too hard).

But then she asked:

Wo de gou zai na li?

This has me stumped, especially due to the last word. When I looked it up, it had so many meanings, it was impossible for me put the question together as a whole. I'm sure it is something silly, but there's no way I could translate it on my own lol.

Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I believe she is asking where her dog is. ;)

Thanks a lot!

I was guessing something about a dog, but the same website also suggested 'grain' and 'nautical mile'...so that threw me off :p

Btw..do you go to State? Noticed you were in E.L. (same here).
