I just started generating a custom list to match a book I have called "First thousand words in Chinese" -designed for children so just right for me. On the first 4 pages (78 words) I found at least a dozen new (to Skritter) words. I worry about you guys out there - never used an ironing board or a vacuum cleaner (hoover)? or are you too busy getting thousands of words under your belt to clean up :-). Go pick up the 茶巾 (chá jīn) and dry thoses dishes right now.

Well, I've certainly added a 吸尘器 to my list before.

But I do need more these sorts of words. Looking forward to your list!

We clean the apartment and dishes all the time, but, shame on us, we clean in English!

Besides, how would I know which one to use?

抹布
茶巾
巾
擦碗布
搌布
破布
毛巾

hey, let us know when you've finished creating that list - I think it'd be really useful
