>uses Cantonese
Benny wants to make fun of my Chinese. He has admitted he is not Chinese. That is my point. Totally irrational for him to start using some small dialect. Not even sure it is a dialect. It wouldn't match what I know of the biggest differences between the larger dialects. Beijing standard is what the majority of the country speaks. -

Lol yes, I know what I'm getting into. I don't plan on MOVING there or anything, so I can put up with it. I have some language exchange partners that aren't that bad. You just have to find the international minded people. I've already found some eavesdropping use in public, but my Chinese isn't good enough to get the juicy shit. I just hear "meimei blah blah blah hen blah blah blah ma?" and then they both laugh so *shrug* Also a lot of talk about food.
I did have a troll account with the language exchange app I use, but I got banned after repeatedly posting the Japanese flag. You don't even have to say anything. Just post the Japanese flag and they go fucking ballistic and start telling you about Nanking.
How far did you get with Chinese? I'm looking at Hindi next. Going for that polyglot superpower achievement. -

Language learning apps are a shitshow. I talked to some chinese girl about doing meth and ecstasy for a while. She had never smoked weed. But yea I go to school with hella chinese students and they're all like stand offish like they don't trust you. In one lab class I had I had this partner who was a Chinese student and he wouldn't even talk to me the whole quarter unless it was necessary for the lab.
My tones are solid as fuck and I was building up a decent vocabulary but now I barely remember any of it. I can still do the tones though instinctively because I practiced so much. When I went to Taiwan it actually would catch people off guard because I'd speak the little I did know in Chinese so well they assumed I was somewhat fluent and would try to talk to me.
Language learning is interesting but it requires so much time and input and practicing is kind of awkward a lot because you need another person to talk to. -

I find that when I think about my tones they are really really shit. When I don't, they're only a little shit. It's that fucking fourth tone that gets me, and I slip on second sometimes.
And yes, they are a shitshow, but it's okay. I'm trying to get my partner to skype with me, but the hours lol. This bitch works 14 hour shifts in a factory making something with metal, not sure what. Also she eats dog meat, but her English isn't good enough to describe it. Lives in Yulin. I've tried really hard to get her to describe it but the best I've got is 'not pork.' She's hawt tho.
The awkwardness doesn't bother me too much. I mean at least there's a reason for it. I'm sure I'll feel differently when I go to China. My only real life use of Chinese thus far (besides eavesdropping) has been when I saw these people wondering where the bathroom was. I just said 'qu' and pointed, and when they were surprised and asked if I speak Chinese I just said "xiao, wo hanyu bu hao" which I KNEW xiao was wrong but they got the message. -

had Hitler succeeded french would be an aryan dialect, italian would be an aryan dialect, spanish and portugese would be some aryan dialect.
your a retard.
this is the reason y i stopped pursuing knowledges for knowledges sake. a little bit of knowledge can be dangerous, half-knows are lethal.
partial knowledges leads to ignorances, and becos knowing everything and and having all knowledge is impossible .... one can only be either ignorant ..... or more ignorant.
like you. -
