您是插班还是校方会单独辟个班出来给该金

...

>固有

学期还没开始,所以我先考试,然后我会知道我可以上哪门课程

>我可以上哪门
所以不是您选课是课选您??

我可以选其他的课,但是我不可以选我的日语课因为上哪门日语课靠我的考试成绩和语言水平

>靠我的考试成绩和语言水平
取决于我的考试成绩和语言水平
tho both are "depend on"

谢谢哈

What does "不" mean?
It leaves me puzzled.
My book says "not" but what not?

Afaik if you but it front of a verb, it negates it

For example: 我不是 is "I am not"

Also 大家好

为什么我不见中国人在四chan?

Thank you.

你们好!我在中文二,所以我的中文不太好。你们今天做什么?

这是中国的。对吗?

>全国第一张马列主义的大字报和人民日报评论员的评论,写得何等好呵!请同志们重读这一张大字报和这个评论。可是在50多天里,从中央到地方的某些领导同志,却反其道而行之,站在反动的资产阶级立场上,实行资产阶级专政,将无产阶级轰轰烈烈的文化大革命运动打下去,颠倒是非,混淆黑白,围剿革命派,压制不同意见,实行白色恐怖,自以为得意,长资产阶级的威风,灭无产阶级的志气,又何其毒也!联想到1962年的右倾和1964年形“左”实右的错误倾向,岂不是可以发人深醒的吗?

nah I'm a China-boo so of course I study the zhongwen

Anyone know why Chinese-Americans are so bad at Chinese?

Like, even most second generation ABC seem to be unable to speak, never mind read Chinese beyond literal Chinese 101 basics.

Because of american """education"""

From my understanding, some only understand it but speak back to their parents in English. There's the whole assimilation idea and some ABCs and their parents want them to focus only on English. When I lived in NYC though I came across a good amount of ABCs who immigrated to the US in the childhood or teenage years so of course they spoke Chinese natively, and even among 2nd generation ABCs many had an interest in Chinese language/culture and were attending Chinese classes with me in order to be able to speak Mandarin.

Additionally, many ABCs come from families that only speak dialects/Cantonese and not Mandarin.

;_;

>came across a good amount of ABCs who immigrated to the US
actually that should read "chinese americans" but you get the point

不要哭,瑞典也是挺好的国家。

我也爱你们。( •̀ ω •́ )

That still doesn't make any sense.

I went to public school. My Japanese is perfect. I just had to go to Saturday 日本語学校. I know Chinese schools exist too, so I know that's not the issue.

I guess the dialect thing makes some more sense. I'm guessing there are more Mandarin schools and maybe some cantonese, but not much for smaller dialects. Learning from just parents is much more likely to speak just baby-chinese.

Also
>NYC
Man, Flushing is basically China. I'm not surprised. Everyone there would automatically assume I'm Chinese and speak to me in Chinese whenever I'd go there. A Chinese person could probably live there without ever speaking English.

shay shay
你真的是中国人?

So even asians can't tell each other apart. I fucking knew it.

嗯嗯 嗯~ o(* ̄▽ ̄*)o

>I just had to go to Saturday 日本語学校. I know Chinese schools exist too, so I know that's not the issue.

Many Chinese-Americans do go to Chinese schools as well but from what I've hear many just see it as a waste of time and have no interest in it.

It's like how in the US in high schools people study Spanish for 2 or 3 years but because most students don't have an interest in it, they come out of high school being unable to hold a basic Spanish conversation.

>因为我是

别 use Google Translate.

为什么不喜欢韩国人?她们很漂亮,他们的历史很有意思。

哇~
为什么中国人通常不用Sup Forums

》为什么中国人通常不用Sup Forums

我也有这个问题。

>double meme arrows
很棒的!

Also, how do you say maymay in Chinese?

妹妹 maybe?

In addition, which website to visit to consume chinese maymays?

>为什么不喜欢韩国人?她们很漂亮,他们的历史很有意思。
>她们很漂亮
真的吗?我不觉得。她们的女娲肯冷看出来是非常好看,可是性格上面有很多问题。有的还比我们中国女孩子还要邪。我不喜欢。

Do chinese schools have books that are mandatory to read?

第三个是“月”吗?

I know three characters out of the ones you have posted.

What are you saying?

第三个, third one
是, is
“月”, "month"
吗, "eh"

Third one is month, eh?

日 sun
月 moon
this user wonder what's your intention

It's supposed to be "日",but judging by the reactions,I fucked it up.

Help me understand my GF's Chinese conversation

They bottom isn't supposed to protude. At least that's how I write it.

Taiwan, do you know it?

Honestly,my handwriting is absolute trash.
This is how I would write "moon"

It is better than mine. lol.

there are calligraphy instructions on strokes

if you do the strokes in order they should look better

I did them in order.

chinks believe "开窍", an enlightenment or epiphany of some kind
i unironically hold the opinion that an un开窍ed human being wll not be able to do chinese calligraphy well
practice make perfect tho

stupid chink

>practice makes perfect
Why do you think I wrote at least a line of each character?

boxes then lines
when we were learning in school we had special boxes to practice the characters on so they are stable and structurally sound

>user,what is your goal for 2017?
>I want to learn a new language
>which one?
>half of the groups starts saying that it must be Russian
>awkwardly say "mandarin"
>teacher looks at me like if I just said some really,really dumb thing
>half of the group is like "mandarin is a fruit lol"
>"Did I say something impossible?"
>"No user,bht I have to ask,why not Japanese?"
Fucking people I swear.

Well, why?

I was never really that much inerested in Japan.
Most of my books about asia are about china/by chinese authors.
I only have four books written by Japanese.

And maybe because I don't want to associate with the animeheads that I have seen irl.

they were shocked by your alacrity

This shouldn't be allowed.

Ye

Why this thread has so many Japanese?

Shitty english translations

Similar to how North and South Dakota is translated into Japanese/Korean/Vietnamese/Chinese

Chinese studying in Japan + sinoboo who is also a weeb

Him (spoiler)or maybe her(/spoiler) and I are the anons who've done these threads the last two years.

There is literally nothing wrong with being cheerful
If I jumped into this thing without optimism,I would have given up a long time ago.

it's different tones
technically shan1 and shan3

I approve my fellow foreign-language-learning user

Why is romanised Chinese so shit. like I get the accents and stuff but

>Zhang
>Pronounced Jung

Fucking spell it like "Jung" then

One of the provinces should be renamed to avoid this abomination

It's another case of the characters look different but look the same.
Like how you have 20 different ways of writing fucking Yang or Míng.
It's all the same in latin but looks different in hanzi.

usually in chinese the city is said right after the province

shaanxi hanzhong
or shanxi yuncheng, or just the city so it's okay
