(g) I always wonder what the taste "astringent" mean. I suspect the word
means 涩, though Americans say it (word) is not a tatse. Americans do not
have a word for 涩; they simply do not have that taste. I gave them a few
examples that would be 涩 in Taiwan. But Americans do not eat exotic food,
so they do not know what I tried to say.
