Zuótiān wǎnshàng nǐ qù nǎr le? Gěi nǐ dǎ diànhuà yě méirén jiē.

昨天晚上你去哪儿了?给你打电话也没人接。

Where did you go last night? I called you many times but there was no answer.

Wǒ liáotiān qù le, liáodào bànyè cái huí fángjiān shuìjiào.

Daniel

我聊天去了,聊到半夜才回房间睡觉。

I was chatting with someone and didn't go back to my apartment until midnight.

Gēn shéi liáotiān a?

Li Ming

跟谁聊天啊?

Whom were you chatting with?

Hé yí gè dàye, wǒ tīng rénjiā dōu jiào tā kǎnyé, wǒ xiǎng tā xìng kǎn ba.

Daniel

和一个大爷,我听人家都叫他侃爷,我想他姓侃吧。

An old man. Others called him "Kan Ye", so I think his surname is "Kan".

Běijīnghuà bǎ mànwúbiānjì de xiánliáo jiào "kǎn". Nà wèi dàye tèbié néng liáotiān suǒyǐ jiù jiào tā kǎnyé le.

北京话把漫无边际的闲聊叫“侃”。那位大爷特别能聊天所以就叫他侃爷了。

The Beijing word for endless talking is "Kan". So he's called "Kan Ye" because he's is always talking.

Ò, suǒyǐ tā búxìng "kǎn".

Daniel

哦,所以他不姓“侃”。

Oh, so his surname isn't "Kan".
