they are not the same written it has to do with centralization and so on places like wu does not even have characters for some of the local dialect
Adam Scott
What apps/websites do you guys use to practice with Chinese speakers?
I've had the best luck with HelloTalk and Interpals.
Asher Long
Sounds plausible
Wrong time period
Aren't they 99% the same?
Ryan Torres
no, they are 80-90% the same and even if there are characters it is 75+ grammatical
Alexander Sanchez
Yes, you can also find entertaining cat videos on my channel. Make sure to leave a comment, like and subscribe.
Andrew Bennett
That's weird. My cantonese friend who does not know mandarin can read mandarin websites just fine.
Alexander Allen
it's not weird because Cantonese don't write in cantonese
Dominic Wilson
Why isn't the middle kingdom on Sup Forums?
Ryder Price
google times out before even loading anything in china so they can't use captcha
Carter Phillips
It's reasonably similar that if you can can read one you can read the other without much training.
For simple things like songs you can just read the lyrics.
Since everything is written in Mandarin almost everyone can read that fine too.
Ayden Flores
You see some chinese flags every now and then but I bet most of them are laowai english teachers, not that there's anything wrong with that
Ryan Johnson
we can understand mandarin fine but they dont understand cantonese
Carter Ross
sun yat sen speaks cantonese mao zedong doesnt
coincidence?
Adrian Torres
Why is that the case?
Owen Foster
Mao Zedong
Asher Nelson
Why did you say this twice? I literally reason out what you mean by this lol
The difference between Cantonese and Mandarin is NOT the difference between traditional and simplified characters
Jordan Bell
It's the case b/c of exposure.
Leo Clark
I also want to point out that Cantonese is not especially unique here, just more "relevant"-- there are many "local languages" in China that have varying levels of mutual intelligibility (or unintelligibly) between themselves and mandarin
Nathaniel Adams
Just finished watching a documentary on the Great Wall. Seriously fuck the nomads.
Lucas Perry
Never forget Song Dynasty
Camden Jackson
Simplified Chinese is fucking retarded.
I really despise learning these ugly characters.
Benjamin Davis
>muh heritage
Traditional characters are unnecessarily complicated and verbose and look ugly on computer screens
Thomas King
Mongols > chinks
Alexander Moore
A fucking leaf
Nicholas Lopez
>Mongols > chinks
Oliver Wood
The only reason for keeping traditional writing system is for politics.
Look at neutral chinese places malaysia and singapore. Objectively simplified chinese is superior.
Ethan Martin
because mandarin is an easy language not much complexity to it
Michael Sanders
why is kowtowing to commies considered neutral in canada?
Jason Myers
Why do they speak mandarin and not Cantonese in Taiwan?
William Long
Why would they speak Cantonese? It's a dialect specific to the Guangdong region.
Ryan Harris
>dialect kys retard
Anthony Rivera
What are some good cartoons in Mandarin? Doesn't matter if Taiwanese or from Mainland.
Evan Myers
Who sucks better cock - Mainlanders or Taiwanese?
Robert Butler
The commies were just continuing a policy the KMT planned to implement anyway
William Smith
How the hell do I change the Chinese font in Chrome? It's ugly as fuck right now and nothing works to change it...
Chink girls piss me the fuck off sometimes. Why is it so hard for them to just go and see a doctor? She's constantly complaining about something with her body, then I tell to stfu and just see a doctor, then she waits a month and goes "haha well I'm fine now no need to go anymore, you know here we only go see a doctor when there is something wrong" but wasting 50$ on some retarded herbal mix sold to her by an illiterate squatting Chink makes perfect sense because it's TCM. She's never even been to a gynecologist in her whole life.
Josiah Barnes
Just being objective
Mason Jackson
my boss my hero is a good drama aragaki yui
Henry Cooper
>aragaki yui yeah i'd give her a succ
Adam Parker
I miss all the dutch posters in /sino/
Jeremiah Foster
>tfw spend the entire day hanging out with my new taiwanese and malaysian friends and didn't get any homework done
Matthew Richardson
college?
Brandon Fisher
yup
Logan Robinson
why are hapas so retarded and deformish?
Seriously, every Hapa I met are A)biggest SJWS B)broken families C)have a weird deformish look D)try hards to be cool
Why? It doesn't even matter if WMAF or AMWF. Same shit happens
David Morris
I know the media wants to push the narrative that hapas look godly like your KPOP or TAIWAN pop star
But the media is wrong. The truth is much more uglier
Liam Harris
She is HAPA. Very KAWAII.
Robert Sanders
Not kawaii. Her head look too small
Thomas Bell
All the 11/10 I know are all hapas
Owen Wood
>Her head look too small
Christian Evans
They are the biggest SJWs
I made my Ex gf have an abortion because of it
Now I am being threatened by my archdiocese with excommunication for what I had done
Joshua Russell
Then explain why neither the first nor second drafts of 二简字 was implemented.
John Allen
That's the consequence of having white genes. Asian's are rarely SJW.
Sebastian Myers
Unless you have been livng under a rock, a lot of them are
Landon Miller
Maybe in Taiwan
Mainland chinese don't give a flying fuck about political correctness. So much so that it's rather annoying.
Aiden Wood
They use their go to Anglo colleges where they mix with retarded leftist white students
Ryan Price
It's more like it's the consequence of Western academic brainwashing. Fully westernized Asians are no different from other Westerners.
Angel Wood
Malaysian Chinese don't give a shit either, but maybe that is because we are raised to be quietly hostile to Malays and Islam as a survival mechanism.
Lincoln Fisher
Mainland Chinese are simply want to take over canada with numbers
But why do malaysian chinese women go for white men all the time?
Luke Hall
>But why do malaysian chinese women go for white men all the time? Asians can't resist the BWC
Nolan Moore
No one is asking you the question. But let me ask you, why so many White men who go for asian women, end up with the ugly ones a lot of the time?
Samuel Cooper
B/c personality > looks
Also yellow fever
Caleb Williams
It's merely a defense mechanism of Asian men to call those women ugly. We all know you are only bitter and wish you could be as attractive as the average white man with his BWC is to your own women.
If that is so, this would not be the common sight of wmaf
Joshua Bailey
wow she is beautiful and probably a very sweet, loving and caring wife and mother
Gavin Russell
Sad
Cooper Gutierrez
Thanks for proving my point
Isaiah Murphy
That you are a bitter Malay virgin?
I will find myself a beautiful Malaysian-Chinese wife and it will be very easy because of my BWC.
Camden Baker
Well if you insist. Your standard of beauty is horrid anyways
Angel Turner
Because it is unachievable to you? Sad!
Joshua Campbell
Yes. I cannot be that bad looking
Thomas King
Because it's exotic to them. Maybe some latent britbooism because older people keep saying the country would have been nothing without the British Empire.
Christian Lee
You are so butthurt over a lie I made. Pathetic
Joshua Phillips
Chinese looks really nice when written, but how do you deal with how shitty it sounds?
Luke Campbell
By stabbing your ears with a knife
Jackson Gomez
>how shitty it sounds it sounds great imo
Cameron White
Cantonese (poor peasant dialect of Mandarin) sounds very ugly. But standard Mandarin is quite pleasant to the ear.
Juan Murphy
>'twas but a ruse, thou knave I was making shit up myself, but I do believe that if the British Empire hadn't imported a shitload of Chinese into British Malaya the country would be much worse off than it is now.
Kevin White
t. 毛泽东
Justin James
No. You butthurt.
Pitiful. No better than the yellow fever niggers
Jordan Fisher
It's true though, the only Malaysians worth even half a shit are Malaysian Chinks (Joyce Chu).
