Online Chinese buzzword: Carpooling
With the living cost springing up, more and more working class pwople choose another way to save up----Carpooling. Today's learning Chinese blog will give you some information of carpooling appeared in China.
First let us look at the following mandarin class dialogue:
A:我们拼车去的。Actually, we shared a car with another family and split the costs equally. B: 噢，这就叫拼车呀？ A: 是呀，不知道了吧？In learning Chinese, there are many expressions using the character “拼 pin”, such as pinhe (piece up), pinjie (joint) and pincou (put together) as well as pinche (carpool). Of course, it does not refer to putting two cars together, but getting a few people together to share one car.
So,carpooling is an arrangement whereby several participants share a ride, going to the same or a nearby destination in a car and sharing the costs.
Background of learning Chinese:
Carpooling refers to an arrangement made by a group of people such as coworkers or schoolmates to share a ride to and from somewhere with shared costs. People who own cars can offer rides to others on the same route to work, so as to save them money and bring convenience to others.
Carpooling is a newly emerging thing. According to reports, a “taxi-pool” system has been adopted in South Korea, Greece, the United States and Europe. In the U.S., people are encouraged to share a taxi, which helps save the environment, reduce traffic congestion and benefit passengers. Carpooling is becoming a fashion in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other major cities in China.
Examples of learning Chinese: 1. 我和邻居拼车送孩子去汉语课上学汉语很方便也很省时。 It's time-saving and convenient to carpool with my neighbors to take our children to mandarin class for learning Chinese. 2. 咱两家拼车去趟西藏吧。 Let’s put together a carpool to visit Tibet. 3. 我和小李拼车上班省了不少油钱。 I save a fair amount of gas money by carpooling with Xiao Li to work.
