How do Chinks and Nips do it? Learning the principles of Chinese characters has to be hands down the most frustratrating thing in existence.
Lemme simplify it for you. Every character has a rebus meaning the part that suggests the MEANING of the character. Then the other is the phonetic part suggesting what it SOUNDS like.
For example 廣 is pronounced guǎng meaning “wide” because the phonetic 黄 is pronounced “huáng” and the rebus 广 suggests it is “big, open. wide”
Often times characters by themselves don’t mean much and need to be coupled in order to make sense. An example is 小心 where 小 means “little” and 心 means “heart” oh wait, did you understand the meaning? Of course I’m telling you to “be careful”!!!!
FUCK CHINESE CHARACTERS. They have the award for being the most confusing way to write a language period.

How can 700 distinct languages exist among a population of 8 million? They're not even all related.
Jose Morales
if you just need to know Chinese in a hurry you are better off learning simplified characters.
nobody uses traditional characters outside of Hong Kong and Taiwan.
if you are learning Chinese "for fun" and not ont a tight schdule, just fucking let osmosis do itswork.
Andrew Wilson
They don't learn the characters in a day. They earn couple thousand characters during our school lives, in 9 years or so by STUDYING. Also keeps the low IQ negroids away.
Josiah Ward
If I were you I'd just memorize words as a whole without caring about meaning or other bullshit.

Lack of globalisation and imperialism. Pre-agriculture, every extended family that constituted a society would have had their own language. With slow, gradient divergence in differences between the thousands of sprawling languages in some places, and complete isolation in others.
Nicholas Lewis
wait.... people that live in PNG use the internet? Don't you have some kind of big clan war to fight in?
Anthony Nelson
But Africa isn't like that.

Just because you're country is literally shit, doesn't mean that other countries can't have actual language, Pajeet.

Nah mate, they're currently dealing with the refugees with "convinced" them to take.

Chinese characters get easier the longer you've been learning them. When I started Chinese I felt the same way. After 13 years I can memorize a sheet of new characters in a couple hours.

Okay, what does it got to do with Papua New Guinea having so many languages?
Grayson Thomas
Seems fairly logical.
Christopher Fisher
Because, even the Papuans have some form of advanced culture.
Jayden Gray
Isn't higher language density due to centuries of low industrialisation and tribalistic society?
Bentley Jackson
Yes. For example, the Abbos were primitive in technology when we colonised them, but have an astoundingly rich culture.
India also has a rich culture in fact.
By culture I mean the microbe infestations of your curry-shit ridden streets.

Tell me aboit time tense and verb conjugation, is it much different from english?

English spelling is much easier than learning all those logographs.

Dylan Gutierrez
oh right, ahaha. "WHOOPS" ahahhahahaha.
not our problem anymore
Ian Walker
pretty sure there's like 400 different changes from trad pitional to simplified, if you're gonna learn one, might as well learn the other
Andrew Williams
There's not much difference. People who learn simplified can read traditional, and vice versa. Since Chinese is a context heavy and an analytic language.

It's good for you. 小心 Is the archaic form of 小气. It means to be small minded or selfish. It's actual meaning is be mindful for yourself

I don't know about full chinese, but writing in jap is not that hard once you get used to stroke order and can guess how most of them are done. Is chinese really that much worse?

you don't even need to learn the overwhelming majority of characters to be functionally literate in Chinese. the advantage is that meaning is concentrated into a more efficient and immediately recognizable form. a Hanzi reader could see a few characters and immediately gather a load of information from them, meanwhile with a romantic alphabet it would require more reading and understanding of the specific combination of letter-sounds to gain the same level of understanding, a far less efficient process.

They could have spent the time learning other things. They are wasting time just to be able to read.
