Any direct flights (and how much do they cost) between these two towns ?

And if not, how much do return flights HK-Shanghai and HK-Taipeh cost ?

BTW, I guess an overland trip by train from HK to Shanghai would take
two days, wouldn't it ?

I just bought a ticket yesterday from Taipei - Hong Kong - Taipei round
trip by TG at the cost NT7000 ( USD200 RESTRICT ON TG633 )
TG is the cheapest among CI, CX & BR. Hope this will help

According to the Microsoft Encarta world atlas the correct spelling is
"Taipeh".

In the CIA factbook it is Taipei
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/...k/geos/tw.html

and as per the Microsoft Autoroute program it is also
Taipei

...which perfectly corresponds with the modern Pinyin way to transcribe
Putonghua into western characters.
Please note that in Taiwan, although the common language is the classic
(non-simplified) Chinese,
all young people have a thourough command of Putonghua and Pinyin

on the same way Beijing is pingyin for Pekin(g)

In article , "Dieter
Aaaa" Dieter says...

May i advise you to find a Chinese teacher from Northern China mainland ?
Why don't you learn modern standaard Chinese (Mandarin / Putongua) ?

Mandarin is spoken in Taiwan, although they use traditional characters
instead of simplified ones (but my teacher is teaching the simplified
ones and we use a book from mainland China).

What is the use of learning old classic Chinese ? I agree with you that
iit has a great cultural value but even in Taipei they are aware that it
will disappear as a business language...

Not sure what you mean with old classical Chinese.

And if you learn modern standard Putongua from a Taipei "laoshi" then it is
as if you learn German from a teacher in Capetown ...

I have two teachers, one from Taiwan and one from Beijing.

By the way, I did a quick check and there is no character for "peh" but
there are several for "pei", so probably you are right with the
spelling.

Both of you are right. Actually, the correct spelling is neither "peh"
or "pei", but a chinese character.

The "pei" is used in English transcription and the "peh" in German.

Well, there is a standardised transliteration (called pinyin) for the
Chinese characters and this is used to write them with the western
alphabet.
