For a BOT person great drop is small, but for "normal" person great drop could mean large drop. Actually I think great in general has a positive tone in it. So one can translate it as he/she wants in this case... Here we have a word: 'gross' (old writing groß). It's pronunciation is not like the English 'gross' Thank you, I did understand if right from the beginning - beside for the first second. But I think that only happened bcs I was yesterday at a school event, some former pupils of mine did show up and grew so much in height since they left school, I said yesterday repeatedly: wow, you are so 'gross' now!....) Or if a person / company / country has a LOT of debts, we say also: he/it /... has a ~ 'great mountain of debts (grosser Schuldenberg) If a word in your own language is a little bit similar to foreign language word, I think ppl tend to associate it at the first moment to the more common / or also common use in your own surrounding. I thought it is simply funny, that it can mean both. good or bad, if a person isn't aware about the use in e.g. BO or not concentrated on BO for a moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peludo Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 I have noticed a big drop of Yuan relative Dollar since Trump's victory (nearly 6.86 today). Does anyone know how much can it still drop? or if the drop is directly related to Trump or it is an internal adjustment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering, as in the past a few films got such weekdays and still made money. If I'm remembering correctly, Avatar opened on Monday and Transformers 3 opened on Tuesday. Both of those films broke the record in China for highest grossing of all time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
