[SophiaBigBang]

Possible... :) But most of the languages are in these letters but Chinese is the only language with your letters. Or does Japanese have the same? I don't know to be honest... :/

[Kanjese]

@SophiaBigBang Letters? I think they are characters... Japanese took the characters and made what it is now... I am currently learning Chinese on my own... Kind of hard but I was born learning the Japanese language.... And most languages have the Latin alphabet which even English uses.

[paraplegicgiraffe]

@SophiaBigBang Traditional characters are used in Taiwan, as Kanji Japan, China, parts of the southeast like Vietnam (although roman letters are also used specifically in Vietnam), Parts of Tibet, and in Singapore as an official language of Singapore. Korean is similar to Chinese and before they invented their own Korean characters, they used Chinese. Simplified is used in Mainland China, but has only been used in China for several decades- they used to use traditional.

Nothing against chinese, but for me at 01:05 it just sounds like "chang, ching-ching how chang-ching ..." Hahaha i really dont understand a word ! xD

[LucifersSweetAngel]

@SophiaBigBang

I'm trying to hear this from the point of view of someone who doesn't speak the language,but even then I fail to see how it sounds like that :|

[SophiaBigBang]

@LucifersSweetAngel I know what you mean. For me it's the same with german... Everyone who doesn't speak that language says it just sounds harsh and anything... But for me it's normal. ;)

That's our german version in case you'd like to hear it ;) : /watch?v=4d4yn-_pbg4

[LucifersSweetAngel]

@SophiaBigBang

That's actually really nice :) It doesn't sound harsh to me,but maybe that's because I understand spoken/written German? I think that's my favorite version of this song that I've heard lol.I think I'm gonna watch it in German now :D

[SophiaBigBang]

@LucifersSweetAngel I totally agree with you! :D But how come you can understand German?

[LucifersSweetAngel]

@SophiaBigBang

I learnt it for a while,but I don't know,when it comes to reading and listening I understand,but forming sentences of my own? I just can't,it's the grammar or something,it confuses me.There are so many ways of saying 'the' I just,what? Lol.

[SophiaBigBang]

@LucifersSweetAngel Hahahaa you mean "der,die,das" :D Well, i always wonder how people are able to learn that shit. If i didn't grow up with that i would propably never be able to learn that. But chinese is more difucult i think! I mean you have a whole other writing!

[LucifersSweetAngel]

@SophiaBigBang

Yeah,what's with that? ;) And I would never be able to speak Chinese if I didn't grow up with it either,but lol,learning to use these letters was probably about as hard for me as Chinese would be for you? I don't know.

[RicherkidDenu]

so is mandarin chinese the official language of china or what?

[mountaindog27]

@RicherkidDenu yes

[supermonakiko]

el puto amo! 谢谢您！for to be perfect only needs pinyin added!

[sydcarten]

can somebody provide the Pinyin for this song?

I'm learning mandarin and I would love to use songs like this to help me

[MrDoppler13]

@sydcarten i am just learning too, the pinyin would defiantly help!

[purpleduracell]

@sydcarten I'm working on transcribing it into pinyin, it's just taking a really long time for me because I'm not a native speaker.

haha lol the main characters are all so much cartoony than the other animals :D

[IWantToBeLion]

I can sing this song >w0 . Because I'm .... 台灣人

不過我對其他語言就沒輒了ˊwˋ

[sisymay]

it sounds echoy

[jaywizardess]

Anyone else notice the dude singing, or woman, is off key?

[Ejer12]

@jaywizardess

This is Mandarin Chinese so each word has a tone (High/flat, rising, dipping, and falling, along with a "neutral"). I don't know much about music or singing with tones, but the singer probably sounds off on account of making the tones, I'm guessing.

[theJrLinguist]

@Ejer12 I don't think tones affect the tune in Mandarin Chinese. Cantonese does it more; I can't hear she's off key, actually.

[thegirlroaming]

This is a gorgeous version of this song!

[pictureworkmemory]
