i'd heard of it. maybe it's less talked about elsewhere, though, because it's basically an anti-muslim action, and islam is less popular than buddhism (outside of islamic states

eh, japanese has pretty minimalist grammar. less than english, and much less than german XX

@Jojothegoodperson @sim
for me it's hard because of memorising which sounds go with which characters, just for mandarin. and trying to add cantonese or others would be 無理X_X
it's nice to have kind of familiar characters, but the mainland simplified ones are annoying. taiwan's traditional are nicer
-
@Jojothegoodperson @sim
hard to write. but on computer, easier to see
-
@Jojothegoodperson @sim
maybe it's because i saw japanese characters first, and traditional ones are closer to them
for example, japanese uses 魚 , so 鱼 to me looks too strange
also though, i think they have more distinct shapes. the simplified ones look more similar, so harder for me to keep apart XX

@Jojothegoodperson
mmm, for me

@Jojothegoodperson
really i only just started to learn mandarin recently, so can't compare all. but i like japanese's sounds much better, more "clean"
when i was small, i grew with spanish, which also has clean sounds, so maybe it came naturally because of that

the chinese i met in universities were mostly not smart. they were also from very rich families, though, sending children overseas. is it different for poorer families?
-
@shmibs @Jojothegoodperson japanese is such a nice, simple language, at least for pronunciation
-
@lain @Jojothegoodperson
mmm mmm, sounds that make you feel happy ^_^
-
@Jojothegoodperson
hmmm, it makes sense, this difference. it seemed india does the same, sending the not-smart-but-rich children to different countries

@march @lain @Jojothegoodperson
it's just PITCH+volume rather than VOLUME+pitch

@Jojothegoodperson
is it not taught because it would connect china to the rest of the world?
-
@Jojothegoodperson
the internet split, though, also cuts you off, doesn't it? so i thought...
-
@Jojothegoodperson
that's good ^_^
for other countries, though, everyone knows english because it's taught in schools. is it not taught in china's schools?
