Chinese grammar is a lot easier than English, but the fact that it is easy, it makes it hard especially when learning it in English. 😅

I will soon conquer top 3 languages in the world. I grew up speaking English, Chinese and Malay. I also sleaks a little cantonese and hokkien. Im 16yo Malaysian. my hobby is running and learning spanish. Im learning spanish by myself. I will never give up on learning spanish until i feel that i can speak fluently. Slowly but surely one day i will be able to speak it. Im getting excited just thinking about that. Yeahhh. Todo lo mejor para mí. Soy un chino, nunca voy a renunciar de aprender español. Pase lo que pase.

I don’t like CCP China but in learning simplified. Maybe I should switch. But I do want to understand what’s going on in the mainland and especially Beijing

Man, this is really curiously interesting to me. As an Austrian born kitchen German first languag of an Italian Father and a Slovenia mother my loyalties to sound of speach pathway of thought patterns are sll over the map, I express different responses depending on whichever language I think in. I swear it's like being dyslexic in multiple languages but it is soooooo much fun because I catch subtleties others overlook which then kicks me into gear on a road less travelled. So much for the preamble. Here we go! Man Dar In in German translates as One In There! Web says Mandarin is of Portuguese origin but if I read history human flow patterns then I'm willing to bet Germanic speaking traders got to Western China way before Portuguese sailors and Sanskrit became the override of Lingua Franca. I think Gernans found land path to Western China, what ever it was called then, and with the diminishing Roman Empire, German troops found the Far East and labeled the new discovered land of people Man-dar-in or translsted for the new world history book Man-dar-in means in German One-in-there. Ciao and Agape Salute!

Thanks for your query. The above video is to encourage interest in Mandarin Chinese, which was identified as a priority language for the UK's economic and cultural future. You can read the 2017 Languages for the Future report via the link in the description.

@@britishcouncil - Many thanks for your very prompt reply. I agree Mandarin is a very important language BUT, as a fairly highly qualified engineer and (out of work for 4 years) speaker of 13 languages, I have found that nobody is particularly interested in my language and cultural capabilities in the UK. In fact, since I am 67 years old, nobody is interested in employing me at all. I include Mandarin as one of my languages, albeit at an intermediate level at the moment and I just despair at the state of British industry in their lack of interest in opening their eyes to the usefulness of getting foreign language speakers on-board to promote their interests. Their disinterest in understanding the difference it makes, especially combined with an understanding of the cultural differences is just heart-breaking, thus my negative comment earlier.
