He speaks basic Mandarin.

Japanese and chinese are completely different as grammar, pronunciation or other language characteristics, though both use chinese characters. As linguistics, japanese doesn't belong to any language groups, but some linguists say that japanese have a little bit same structures with an altaic language, like turkish, korean, mongolian or etc.

So it's easy for Japanese to read chinese, but really hard to learn other parts. I believe Chinese think so, when they learn japanese^^;

his pronouciation is really good.

compared to other foreigners who tries to speak chinese >_>

[RenataYan]

@freefreakster but he can speak Mandarin

[KammyLeih]

@XOSiren18XO That is so true. Like "yes" in Cantonese is 係 (hai) and "yes" in Japanese is はい (hai) except higher tone. My boyfriend was asking something in Japanese and I said "係", then he said "Oh big difference (being sarcastic)".

And like the word "attitude" in Cantonese is "taido" and in Japanese it sounds really similar, but also "taido".

My mouth was open whole time when he speaks in Mandarin. Hehehe better than me. I only know my other Chinese dialect - Cantonese but can't really speak Mandarin tho I could pretty well understands it. Weird no?

[XOSiren18XO]

@lilpipsqueakxd Well, yeah. Some words sound exactly the same in Chinese in Japanese. o.o I mean even I can pick out words in Japanese and I speak Cantonese.
