Ticket dude telling us price of ticket
so you're not learning fan ti zhi? Does this mean I won't be able to guess what you're writing about half the time? :)

Is the price of that ticket 1 kuai and 5 mao? I didn't figure out what that character after the "1" meant...

I'm actually studying both fantizi and jiantizi. Right now, I'm mostly concentrating on jianti for writing, but I can read both equally poorly. I'm going to be ramping up my fanti skillz next year, I think.

P.S. I thought Singapore used the simplfied?

Ya, one kuai and 5 mao.
Singapore does use jianti, and the fact that there are two types of writing has long been the bane of my existence.

I was also pretty sleepy when I posted the last one, and I see it's silvergoose's reply to your post that uses fan ti, not you.
