Hello – I tried out the first Chinese New Year lesson and I like it – lots of good ideas. However, the first thing you do it type in your birth year and it gives you your animal. My isn’t correct. It says I’m a mouse, and really I’m a rat. (well, not really, really!) It this a translation error? Or maybe it’s because I am old as dirt?
