Someone off-list ask me exprain.

So I on-list exprain.

He want me exprain engrish terms to native engrish?
it's like askin him to exprain to me "天下乌鸦一样黑"
ah, okay, but he no shame.

"small items of food, bite sized, usually served with deserts"

so in my menu, miniature bite sized green bean pancakes, sauteed spiced 
seaweed flakes, light roasted almond and cashew nuts and bear balls.

but no RMB, no nipples, you hear good?

Ah, I can hear him say "bear balls"?
So I say before he ask, and I think he usa person.

You know, I sick of expraining oledi.
I go usa and they serve me porcupine meat balls, I thinking real 
porcupine, but nooo. Then I ask for rocky mountain oysters, I thinking 
real rock oysters, but nooo  ...cheating usa people.
I want money back...not usd prease.

But nevermind, I good to exprain "天下乌鸦一样黑"

天下 "Under Heaven" means "in nature, all over the world, universally"
乌鸦一样黑 "All crows are black" means "corvids are black, not gray, not 
in any other colour"

So it means "human nature is the same every where in the world"
with evil, kindness, cruelty, humanity, ugliness, beauty, stupidity, 
cleverness, etc....

No more expraining, hear good.
