承认吧，这个瑞典老太太比你更懂汉字

一个外国人能比中国人还懂汉字吗?答案是肯定的，至少肯定比我懂。

林西莉可不是一般的外国人。她是一位十分热爱中国文化的音乐家、汉学家，极会讲故事。在北京见到她的时候，这位年逾古稀的老太太看上去非常优雅，但又是那么和蔼可亲。

Although Cecilia Lindqvist now uses a walking stick due to knee surgery, and was exhausted by a long and tight schedule when she was in Beijing, she was full of passion when speaking at an event about Chinese characters in her book, the guqin (a seven-stringed plucked instrument similar to the zither) and her other experiences in China.
