  • @noigraud Considering that chinese is an ancient language with twice the history of English, as well as being the language of a country that has always been traditionally powerful, I'd say you are the moron.

  • sOUNS GOD.

  • Horrible sounding language

  • as I compare all the languages I know right now,Chinese has the most easy grammar.forget about the pronounces writing and vocabs,as a Chinese,we can tell the word has feeling like 笑 is laughing but 哭 is crying,and look carefully at these two words,they are like faces!

  • I think this is a wake-up call for many overseas chinese like Singaporeans to start improving their chinese skills, because in the future, when more foreigners learn the chinese language and grasp it well, we will lose out in society. ( It is a fact that singaporeans are still emphasizing english over chinese).

  • For most of Chinese students, they think English is even more difficult...

  • Maybe Chinese is the language which has easiest grammar, but hardest writing.

  • @noigraud thank you there is no alphabet.

  • I love chinese!

  • @Phantomagia I'm studying it know and I only started about 3 months ago I can have basic conversations, it starts hard but if you keep up you'll do fine
