Upper-intermediate | Leeching off the Parents

About this episode

Adults that still live with their parents long past the time when they were expected to be financially independent are said to be "gnawing on the old" in Mandarin Chinese. In this lesson, hear how a member of this clan interacts with his parents (who don't particularly enjoy the gnawing). Episode link: https://www.chinesepod.com/1534
