Hello! I want to start this because I want to practice my Chinese! If you speak Chinese, we chat!
?
:D

But it is a dif.Chinese Language (the lower-classes?) that inside Chinatowns, Villages, out of big cities,...right?
*oh I love all China! ;):D

I like to chill downtown at China Town.

This thread makes no sense to me :stoned:!

am i the only one who has no idea whats going on? how did you guys get chinese from some squares? is that what chinese looks like on are computers cause of the srtucture of there letters?

I see Chinese letters. No squares here.

I heard Chinese was really hard to learn compared to English. Or maybe it was the other way around?

you don't have the language installed on your computer, that's why they're squares...

对啊！如果你不能看到这些汉字， 你的电脑一定有这样的问题！

420Mory. I am using simplified Chinese characters. They are used in Mainland China and not in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Also, I am using the Mandarin (普通话）dialect. In Hong Kong, as well as most of Southern China, they speak Cantonese (粤语，广东话) and they also use the traditional style of Chinese writing.

If you really want to be able to communicate effectively in Chinese, you need to master the four basic tones. Look it up on the internet. I know if you google, "Learning Chinese Online" an amazing website comes up as one of the results that is full of valuable resources for learning.

Itsaplant...Yes, Chinese is a difficult language to learn. It really just requires alot of practice and patience as with anything else worth studying.

Might I add that my Chinese grammar is not always so fantastic so I apologize in advance for any mistakes I make. :thumbsup:

In Chinese they call hemp or marijuana: 大麻 (da4 ma2).

But I heard if you yell, "Yo! Homeboys I need some of 'dat fire.", it will also be understood in the greater Shanghai/Pudong region. :D

Luckily, Mr. OniEht has already explanined this great mystery.

You need to install the Eastern Asian Languages pack in windows...I believe it is in the control panel somewhere and you need your start-up CD's...

这里是一些我照的照片。。。 (Here are some pictures I took...)

给你们欣赏一下！:smokin: (Enjoy! :smokin:)

Neat pics, and cool so many of you know other languages and such. I am trying to learn Cantonese right now myself.

On another note, just a small reminder to not get too carried away, as we prefer posts to be done in English. Thanks guys :)

Thanks! :D If I translate the Chinese to English in the same post is it ok?

Good luck studying Cantonese! It's a very interesting language!

You should watch the movie 重庆森林！(chong qing sen lin) I think its called "ChongQing (Chungking) Express" in English...It is a good movie to practice Cantonese and a little Mandarin...plus its a really good movie, I think.

:smokin:

yea well i can speak english.

I can too...

真有意思！你说对了！我和你一样，但是我没有老婆啊！我肯定相信你的太太的英文比大部分的美国 人好多了！

不过，我已经住在中国一年半了但是我的中文还不好！我想说很流利的！

好好学习，天天上上！

哈哈哈哈！

PS 你还想来北京吗？如果你来的话，让我知道吧！谢谢！

Thanks, I think an english translation would be great. The cantonese isnt too hard so far, I find it more hard to make the sounds than anything. I found a great website that teaches both Mandarin and Cantonese, for free, and how to translate between the two. First you learn pinay, which is the westernized version, but I think it is more pronunciation you are learning really. I already know Hebrew and a lot of Spanish, this is just for fun, something to do I suppose.

Princess

Spam thread :).

My favorite site for practicing Chinese (well, the characters at least) is www.zhongwen.com. It's a very informative resource for anyone learning Chinese. Unfortunately I haven't had the time to practice lately and my Mandarin is getting really rusty.

i like the squares. ive been looking at them a long time and theyre starting to make sense.

my name is
Ou Ao rui
If that makes any sense at all
