Wrong Pinyin

I have the Yong Ho's Beginner Chinese list active. In Lesson nine, it asks for "The Americas" as a vocab word. It should be 美洲 mei zhou, but the given pinyin is written as mei zhuo... That threw me off until I saw the character. It should be a quick fix.

Got it, thanks!

While we're on it, I think the pinyin for 经济危机 is wrong. It should be jīng​jì​wēi​jī (and the audio says it like this), but I think the pinyin given is jīng​jīwēi​jī. I may or may not have added this word myself...

Fixed 经济危机. Wasn't your add; that word's been in there a long time, it seems.
