Strange. Last night we watched a NOVA program on the coelacanth, and today I finally notice my rickety richwin software presents "...还生存著的中生代的一种腔棘鱼" as an autocomplete option for 现在. In other words, they expect people often intend to go on to say "there still exists a kind of coelacanth from the Mesozoic Era" when they type "now" in Chinese. Sure, someone's going to say, hey, I type that all the time. The weird thing is that I've never noticed this before. The only other autocomplete option was "...不遵守交通规则" ("not respecting traffic regulations") for 走路 ("walking"). Bastards. What about the Chinese drivers that fail to respect traffic regulations?
