<p>I came across this <a href="http://www.melnyks.com/lesson-fifty-two-chinese-antiques/" target="_blank" title="website">Mandarin lessons online website</a> which offers free lessons in learning to speak Mandarin Chinese.

<ul>
<li>si qi (陶瓷) = Porcelain, Chinaware</li>
<li>yu qi (玉) = Jade, Jadeware</li>
<li>gu dong (古董) = Antique</li>
<li>jia de (伪造)= Fake</li>
