Foreigners all have a lot of trouble saying the x sound :messga: My surname is Xu and all of my foreign frends have trouble saying it :air:

I’m a foreigner and I have no difficulties saying X in pinyin. 

Also my boyfriend’s surname is Xu, haha.

But ma was written in the traditional character there - 嗎 not the simplified - 吗。That's what made me think about it :trollga: cause it's probably like one of the only two traditional characters I know :selena:

I'm the bitch that's fragile

I always admire people who learned even the traditional ones since I feel like I have trouble to remember even the simplified characters and most of the people I come in contact with are from the mainland China so I suffice with the simplified characters, but I'm planning to go to Taiwan next summer for a medical internship and am scared I won't be able to read a thing :toofunny:

I'm applying for Taipei, but I definitely wanna travel. Ik it's easier when you know the traditional ones but Im just studying Chinese besides going to med school so it's kinda easier to learn the simplified characters.

Lmao don't be so rude, i was trying to teach you, as I liked being tought when I made mistakes.

Lmao don't be so rude. (this is supposed to be a period, not a comma, as the thought has already eneded and you're starting a new sentence. Otherwise, it is just a long run on sentence, which is a big no no.) I (the i has to be capitalized, whether there is a comma or a period) was trying to teach you, as I like (no d at the end because it is still present tense) being taught (tought is not the correct spelling) when I make (not made) mistakes.

If you are learning Chinese you should definitely pick up traditional. For the sake of learning the culture eg I have never seen people doing simplified calligraphy. The traditional characters are evolved from pictograms so if you learned traditional first, you’ll probably find that easier to pick up coz you can easily categorise and hence remember. Still I think once you reach Taipei, you’ll be able to learn that easily. I have used traditional Chinese all my life coz I’m from Hong Kong but I have no problem reading simplified Chinese even I almost don’t see them at all in my daily life.

Her 谢谢 is terrible, it’s not pronounced like that.

She tried at least. She could have just recorded a video in English with subtitles or with some random woman speaking over her, but she tried speaking the language! When she sings La vie en rose and sings "des yeux qui font baisser les miens" but pronounces it "des yeux qui font baiser les miens" (which turns "eyes that make me lower mine" into "eyes that make mine f*ck"), I just cute-laugh in secret at her trying instead of expressing anger at how she's butchering my language :vegas:
